Located at the foot of the Rocky Mountains and surrounded by beautiful Cheyenne Lake, the Broadmoor has been one of America’s favorite resorts since 1918. This all-season paradise is close to Colorado Springs, yet feels a million miles away. The opulent accommodations include rooms with views of the mountains or lake. Activities include a tennis club, three championship golf courses, paddle boating on the lake and horseback riding. Kids will love the “mountain” waterslide. And the world-class spa incorporates indigenous botanicals and pure spring water. The resort includes 15 restaurants, cafes and lounges, and several shops.
