Getting Around:

Steamboat’s base area is pedestrian-friendly, and so is downtown Steamboat Springs (located about 3 miles from the resort), but getting between the two requires wheels. As you consider lodging options, check their shuttle service: Some (but not all) hotels provide rides to the lifts or to town. No shuttle? Ask about bus-stop proximity. Steamboat Springs operates a comprehensive, free bus system linking the ski resort's base area to the town and area condos. (970-879-3717).
