Ski Timeshare: Finding the Best Resort for You

What better place to spend your winter than on the slopes? Over 60 million people did just that during the 2023-2024 ski season. With all the excitement you can find at just about every ski resort, we wouldn’t blame you for wanting to join in on the fun. Still, if there’s one thing that’s clear about ski resorts, it’s that there are a whole lot of them. The sheer number of ski locations out there can feel a bit overwhelming. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! We’ll help you find the best ski timeshare for your dream winter getaway.

Best Ski Timeshare for Beginners

Some skiers love the thrill of an intense challenge, but if you’re a beginner, you’re probably not there yet. So, if you’re new to skiing and want a gentler start, you’ll love the Innsbruck Aspen. As you could probably guess from the name, you’ll find the Innsbruck Aspen in Aspen, Colorado. What makes this ski timeshare resort so great for beginners is that it’s just a short drive away from a fantastic spot for beginners to practice: the Buttermilk Ski Area (more on that later). While its ski access is excellent, there’s plenty to enjoy at the property itself.

Amenities

Accommodations

• One-Bedroom Suite: features one king bed, one bathroom, a living room with a sleeper sofa, a full kitchen, a washer/dryer, and a fireplace. Accommodates four guests.
• Two-Bedroom Suite: features one king bed, two twin beds, three bathrooms, a living room with a sleeper sofa, a full kitchen, a washer/dryer, and a fireplace. Accommodates six guests.

Buttermilk Ski Area

As we mentioned earlier, the reason that Innsbruck Aspen is the best ski timeshare for beginners is because it’s so close to the Buttermilk Ski Area. This area has plenty of easy terrain where you can practice without stress, and the crowds are often lower than other ski spots in Aspen. They also offer ski lessons, so if it’s your very first time skiing, you won’t have to worry about being too overwhelmed. It’s the ease and accessibility that makes Buttermilk one of the best spots for family ski trips.

Best Ski Timeshare for Great Views

Sure, every ski timeshare is pretty high in elevation, but not all views are created equal. If you want some of the most impressive bird’s eye views in America, you’ll want to head over to Grand Timber Lodge. The lodge is one of Colorado’s best ski-in, ski-out resorts and has plenty of great ski timeshares for you to relax in. Plus, you’ll be right at Breckenridge, one of the five tallest ski mountains in the United States. Even when you’re not racing down these mountains, you’ll be able to enjoy plenty of great resort amenities and accommodations.

Breckenridge

Once you’re ready to see some impressive views, just walk from your ski timeshare right over to the chairlift, and you’ll be on your way to Breckenridge! With an elevation of almost 13,000 feet, you’ll feel like you’re on top of the world here. On top of its massive height, Breckenridge boasts the highest ski lift in North America. Known as the Imperial Superchair, this lift not only offers breathtaking views but gives you access to a network of advanced trails. Alongside its stellar skiing, Breckenridge offers terrain parks for some fun snowboarding. So, even when you’re not skiing around the five peaks, there’s fun to be had on the mountain.
