Breckenridge, CO  80424

Owner Contact Info Please feel free to call Tammy (owner) with any questions or concerns
(303) 589-9097.
Check-in
/Check-out		 Check-in 4pm, Check-out 10am.  Please ask the front desk for a parking pass when you arrive, if you arrive late, ask them for a pass the next morning.
Condo Phone The phone number in the condo is (970) 453-0232, ext 315.  Your friends and family can reach you at this number as my guest, tell them to ask for room #315. No charge for calls received.

Local phone calls made to Summit County are $.35/each.  If you have to dial a 1 first, then it is not a local call and standard hotel rates apply.  I will waive $10 in local phone calls, anything above this amount and all long distance calls will be taken out of your deposit; so it will be easiest if you can use your calling card or cell phone.  If you call me about a problem with the condo, there will be no charge, but please ask me to call you back at a lower rate.
Lock Box with Key There is a lock box on the door for the key.  I will give you the code to the lock a few days prior to your arrival.  During your stay, it is best to keep the key in the lock box since you and I are the only ones who know your code, and this will also allow you to get into the unit if you accidentally lock yourself out.
Special Note Maximum occupancy 4, lost key charge $35, no pets or smoking.  Please drink a lot of water to prevent altitude sickness (signs: headache, nausea, & trouble sleeping).  If you have the symptoms try a sports drink like gatorade.  Drink two glasses of water to every alcoholic beverage.  Be safe, consider wearing a helmet on the mountain.  The condo is ski in the majority of the season, but early and late in the ski season this is dependent on mother nature.
Trip Insurance Trip insurance will save you money if you need to cancel your trip. Please check with Travel Guard Insurance www.travelguard.com (800) 826-4919.  This is who the Breckenridge Resort Chamber recommends.
Shuttle Colorado Mountain Express 1-800-525-6363: from Denver airport.

Condo Contents & Amenities Make Yourself At Home
To/From Ski Slopes

From Condo to the Slopes (3 options)

1.      Ski to bus stop.  Walk out the back door and ski down 4 O’Clock ski run to the bus stop on Park Avenue; west side for Peak 9, east side for Peak 8.

2.      Walk to Snowflake ski lift (5 minutes) for access to Peak 8 & 9.  Go out the main entrance, left on Sawmill Road, cross 4 O’Clock ski run – watch out for skiers and snowboarders, go up a tiny hill, Snowflake lift is to the left of Tyra Summit condos.

3.      Walk to bus stop at Sawmill Road/Ski Hill Road (3 minutes); north side for Peak 8, south side for Peak 9. 

Summit Stage (FREE local bus) schedule downstairs near coke machine.  Ride the bus to Peak 8 or 9 in Breckenridge.  There are also buses to other ski areas… Arapahoe Basin, Keystone, etc.  You can pay for the Vail bus.

From the Slopes to Condo

Follow signs to 4 O’Clock (to town) ski run.  Watch for a large metal building on your left, then a shed with a “Caution” sign, Snowflake lift sign on right, keep going straight, go down a small hill, Wildwood Suites is on the left.  If there is enough snow, ski to the front or back door.

If 4 O’Clock ski run ends at a road, this is Park Avenue and you’ve gone too far.  Not to worry, it’s a short walk back.  Take 4 O’Clock ski run or the road may be easier—left on Park Avenue, left on Ski Hill Road, left on Sawmill Road.
