Steamboat Springs This unique auction offering is situated in the desirable Steamboat Springs resort community.

This exclusive Colorado Rocky Mountain enclave was named for the many natural hot springs whose bubbling waters reminded locals of the sounds of a steamboat’s paddling. In the early 20th century, Scandinavian ski enthusiasts turned the rustic town into a center for their favored sport, with dazzling downhill slopes, Champagne powder, and a ski jump area. The town center offers relaxed charm and the modern amenities expected of a world class year-round resort community. Steamboat Springs Ski membership is optional for the homeowner, with ski in/ski out privileges at the Christie Club.

Skiing, and the century old winter carnival named

by National Geographic as one of the world’s best, are only part of the allure of Steamboat Springs.

Horseback riding, whitewater rafting, fly fishing, kayaking, a professional rodeo series, and the world famous Hot Air balloon festival are only some of the activities for your whole family to enjoy while the slopes are closed. Steamboat Springs’ historic downtown offers diverse dining and shopping options, as well as nightly live entertainment yearround. Private aviation and commercial air service are available at the two nearby airports.
