Strawberry Park Natural Hot Springs

This is one of approximately 8 natural hot springs locations throughout Colorado. In our opinion, this is our favorite. Due to covid, they require reservations so be sure to reserve ASAP. They only release two reservation spots at a time, so you may be required to book one and then keep checking back on the website when they open up more slots (they do this to avoid large groups booking). 20$ per person. RESERVATIONS will be available 25-30 days out from wedding -- check around February 14th. We are working on being able to reserve reservations prior to opening spots to the public. Refer to website for transportation/shuttle reservations. If you choose to not take the shuttle, you will need 4 wheel drive vehicle to get to the top.

Relax at Old Town Hot Springs

While Strawberry Hot Spring is a short drive north of downtown Steamboat, Old Town Hot Springs is located right in the downtown. It includes several man-made pools with natural hot springs piped into the pools.

Ski Steamboat Ski Resort

This is the resort we will be skiing since we have the IKON Pass. Please note that as of right now Steamboat Ski Resort will not be selling same-day tickets. Therefore, we advise buying the 4-day pass or one of the season passes. The IKON ski pass as well as the 4-day pass can be used at other resorts (see website). If you choose to purchase the 4-day pass you are not required to use them all at Steamboat nor do you have to use all four days consecutively. Discounts are available for nurses, military, and students. https://www.ikonpass.com/
