Guest Recommendations:
My wife and I are creatures of habit and don't stray much from our routine while in Breck. However, our guests are wonderful and creative! Therefore, we now make it a point to ask them their favorite things they did while on vacation here. We are just kicking this off (like December, 2011) so more to follow...

Kids
- Peak a Boo Toy's: An awesome store close to the condo. The indoor play area had train tables, sit and color stations, play kitchen, soft slide, trampolines, it was a true gem for people with little kids. Kept them busy for hours. Can also buy a sled from them for Carter Park. (http://www.peakabootoys.net)
Out of the ordinary
There is a new olive oil specialty market with free tastings of different olive oil and balsamic vinegar flavors. Just opened a few weeks ago.
Ski / Snowboard Info
Peak 7 great for blue runs. Less traffic at the lifts than at Peaks 8 & 9.
