“No Disappointments”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 21, 2012

The Frisco Inn on Gelena
-The new owners (purchased by Frisco Lodge early 2012) have family roots that have been providing hospitality in Frisco since the late 1800's. They must be doing something right.
-Somehow Frisco Inn is categorized as a B&B, and yes they have great beds, and a great breakfast, but this is really an inn.
-Large rooms with great views, comfortable beds. There is a hot tub and sauna.
-Hot soup at 4:30 during wine & cheese, and delicious warm cookies.
-Super friendly staff - Bruce, Steve and Delrita (the cookie maker) are awesome & helpful!
-The Inn has an atmosphere that invites conversation with other guests with plenty of areas to get away.
-Ski equipment storage area with boot dryers.
-Easy walking distance (as in 100 ft) to great shops & restaurants.

If you are like me, I always worry about going somewhere new that it might be time & money wasted. The Frisco Inn left me with the feeling of a small inn, doing honest/good work and providing a great experience for their guests. I love businesses like that. I recommend them highly.

Frisco
I'm a Colorado native, yet somehow always thought of Frisco as a place to get gas on my way somewhere else - what a loss all these years. But after taking Exit 201 instead of 203, I discovered Frisco. In terms of the feel of a Colorado mountain town, I consider Frisco in the "Goldilocks" category of just right. It seems like most mountain towns have graduated to rich and/or pretentious (Aspen, Vail, Beaver Creek, Telluride and to some degree Breckenridge) or stagnated into places that are too "Colorado mountain town" to make anyone want to stay there (Georgetown, Leadville). Frisco has a flavor much more like Steamboat Springs (except not in the middle of nowhere.) It has not lost it's honesty as a Colorado mountain town while still providing travelers with a great experience that is not too touristy (ala Estes Park.) It is close to Copper Mountain, Breckenridge, & Vail and right on I-70 which means a straight shot back to Denver.

“Great people, AWESOME place!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 9, 2012

Everything about this place is INCREDIBLE! We wanted to go to Colorado to ski, but weren't sure which resort would have the best early-season snow. We decided on Frisco because we wanted the small-town feel and a centrally-located town. Having never stayed in a Bed & Breakfast before, we weren't sure what to think about the idea, but decided to give the Frisco Inn on Galena a chance. WE LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF OUR STAY!!!

The people made the difference for us. We weren't familiar with the area's resorts, but Steve answered all of our questions and gave us excellent advice on where to ski and where to eat. He went the extra mile to research the resorts' snow reports, open terrain and ticket prices. He even advised us on where to park at the resorts. He made us delicious waffles and lattes for breakfast and packed snacks for us for the slopes.

DellRita was an INCREDIBLE cook and overall awesome person. She made the best muffins imaginable and was just fun to talk with. There is no better way to start a day of skiing than with a hot breakfast and a warm conversation!

We didn't have to worry about a ritzy resort atmosphere and were able to enjoy all of the amenities the Frisco Inn on Galena offered. This was the perfect place for us as a married-couple to spend an extended weekend. The people genuinely care about making your stay as enjoyable as possible and you can tell by how much effort the put into their work. We've never experienced better hospitality from a hotel.

The location is perfect for skiers/boarders who aren't committed to one resort. Frisco is 15 minutes from Copper, Breckenridge, Keystone and Loveland. Vail is 40 minutes away.

Room Tip: The King Tower is AWESOME for couples.

“Simply Perfect”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 25, 2012

Everything is the best you can expect. Service is extremely personable (emails sent before and after your stay as well as great service while there), made to order breakfast where options change daily, ideal location(tucked in just off Main Street), large rooms and comfortable beds. Hot tub available as well as computers available to use. Like being at home. Owner recently bought Inn and plans on adding to outdoor patio and perhaps other additions.

Room Tip: Stayed in room 204. Had an palladiun arch window but put pillows in front of windows to block sunshi...

“Our wedding guests loved this inn.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 20, 2012

We had several couples stay at Frisco Inn on Galena for our son's Aug, 2012 wedding in Frisco. The reports from all were excellent. Great location, great hospitality, comfortable rooms and fun breakfast AMs and wine afternoons. I think this inn has improved greatly under it's new ownership. Owned by the folks that own the Frisco Lodge on Main St.

“We plan to return”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 10, 2012

The Frisco Inn is on a street just behind Main Street in Frisco and very central. We came with a group and had reservations elsewhere, so we ended up with a room on the first floor. It was a nice room, but those upstairs were even better. We could hear whatever was going on in other rooms, conversations, showers, etc. but that was apparently not true upstairs. Besides, that's what earplugs are for. Otherwise it was terrific. The service was extraordinary. They have a very generous happy hour and a restaurant-quality breakfast. They would even make your eggs to order (if you didn't want souffle). One day they made a fresh peach cobbler. Frisco offers skiing (downhill or cross-country) in the winter and an amazing network of running/cycling trails in the summer. We will be back.

Room Tip: Upstairs rooms are nicer.
