What to do and see in Breckenridge, Colorado (CO): The Best Things to do Good for Big Groups

May 4, 2022 Darleen Reid

Once a mountain mining town decimated and nearly destroyed by river dredging, the surprisingly versatile Breckenridge has bounced back over the last century to become one of Colorado's top year round alpine getaways, with all-seasons activities galore. Restoration of the river area has led to the creation of pristine hiking trails and greenery in the summer months, but winter is the real draw. Skiers flock to the groomed slopes, chutes and bowls of Breckenridge Ski Resort by the million.

Rented skis, poles and boots from Black Tie in Whistler and have done so again in Breckenridge. The delivery and service is brilliant as are the quality of the rental gear. I changed my boots half way thru for a smaller pair and the service was brilliant. Collection is also very simple.

Such a convenient way of dealing with ski/board rentals. We booked before trip. Friendly and knowledgeable staff, they come to your lodging with a selection of equipment at a pre set time. Any issues with equipment are dealt with quickly. Returns are just as easy. Equipment better than most of the rental set ups around town. Have used them 4 times now - never fail to impress.

Mountain Wave

Reviewed By vthokies24 - Manhattan Beach, United States

Was about to hit the slopes for the first time this season and realized I forgot to replace a binding strap I lost at the end of last season. Took my board to Mountain Wave and as soon as I walked in, the staff was willing to see what they could do to get me on the mountain. John Platt (JP), literally made me a new binding strap from a bunch of scraps. He was so diligent and focused on setting me up that he had to sand some things down and built me what is probably a better strap than the original one. The Manager, Ryan, came in and made sure the board was solid, as well. Together, they were so adamant on ensuring the strap stayed put. They weren’t satisfied so rebuilt it a 2nd time to make it even stronger. These guys literally made my day - with their amazingly cool energy and getting me on the slopes for the day and setting me up for the rest of the season. I will never go to another board shop again when I am in town - thanks again guys!

We had such a great time here and it was definitely one of the highlights of our vacation! We were greeted by the owner and staff members with such kindness, they really made us feel welcome! We went into the special agent room first- it was challenging but very fun and interactive! After, we went into the Harry Potter room- it was such a blast and you didn’t need any knowledge of the series to enjoy it (although it was especially awesome being a fan) Our family loved it here and whenever we are in Breckinridge next we will be sure to make a stop here!
