Hotels
We have reserved all of the cabins at FREIGHT, an 1884 train depot turned community gathering space. Their S.L.Umber yard has 13, brand new, high craftsmanship cabins. Please call directly to book your room!
Another great local option is The Historic Delaware Hotel. Built in 1886, The Delaware Hotel combines Victorian propriety with “Old Wild West” excitement. It is Leadville’s single remaining grand hotel from the “glory days” of the strike-it-rich era of the late 1880s. Please note that because it is Boom Days there will be a two night minimum.
In addition, our venue, the Tennessee Pass Nordic Center, offers off-the-grid sleep yurts if you are looking for an adventure. Each yurt is equipped with a kitchenette, sink & fresh water, a single burner propane stove, dining table & six chairs, and solar lighting.
