The Top 3 Reasons to Reserve High Alpine Lodge for Your Next Vacation
#1 Your Own Mountaintop Lodge Above South Park
High Alpine Lodge sits atop a forested mountain outside Fairplay at about 11,000 feet, with Pikes Peak on the horizon and thousands of acres of trees in every direction. Breckenridge is about 35 minutes away for skiing, dining, and shopping, and then you come home to a place where the loudest sound is the wind in the pines.
Mornings start with fresh-ground coffee at the great room windows as the sun comes up over the ranges. Afternoons are for the trails around the property, a drive over Hoosier Pass to Breckenridge, or the family swing in the side yard. Evenings end in the covered hot tub under a sky full of stars, or around the gas fire pit on the top deck with the hummingbirds making their last rounds. Most of our guests come for the quiet and stay for the views.
Whether you are planning a family ski trip, a getaway with friends, or a week of hiking with the dogs along, High Alpine Lodge was designed to bring people together and create memories that last a lifetime. We would be honored to welcome you.

Things to Know
A few things we would like you to know before you arrive, so your stay is as comfortable as possible.
๐ก๏ธ Colorado mountain homes are not typically equipped with central air conditioning. Thanks to the cool alpine climate, summer evenings generally range between 45ยฐ and 55ยฐF. Opening the windows allows fresh mountain air to naturally cool the home, and a portable air conditioning unit in the living room and portable fans are provided for added comfort.
๐๏ธ High Alpine Lodge sits at about 11,000 feet. We recommend taking your first day gently and drinking plenty of water while you adjust to the altitude.
๐ The final stretch of road is gravel and bumpy, a true mountain drive; the county maintains and plows it. Four-wheel drive or all-wheel drive is required from October through May.
๐ง Water conservation is especially important at this elevation through the winter months, and we thank you for your care.
๐ฅ Park County does not allow open burns on the property; the gas fire pit on the deck is yours to enjoy.
๐ฆ Moose and other wildlife are common here. Please enjoy them from the deck, never approach, and keep dogs close.
๐ Our House Rules, including the 28+ booking age, holiday check-in dates, and quiet hours, are listed below.
From your first impression to your final morning, our goal is simple: an extraordinary mountain experience where every detail has been considered, every expectation is exceeded, and High Alpine Lodge truly feels like your home away from home.
Thank you for considering High Alpine Lodge for your next mountain getaway.
