Frequently asked questions

Location and Directions

The distance between Denver International Airport and Breckenridge is 104 miles. It is an easy drive along westbound I-70 to Hwy 9 (Frisco exit 203). Then drive 9 miles south to Breckenridge. Driving time is about 2 hours depending on traffic.
 ‘The Lift Condominiums’ are at the south end of town. Go all the way through town until you pass a 3-way intersection. Continue south a short distance, and then turn right at the Sinclair gas station (with a traffic signal) onto Broken Lance Drive. At the end of the street, make a right hand turn onto Columbine Road. Follow it around the first curve and make an immediate left turn onto Snowberry Lane. The condo complex is on the left side.

If you would rather not drive, several companies run shuttles from Denver International Airport (DIA). Breckenridge’s newest airport shuttle, Breck Direct is a great late-night/early morning option if your flights aren’t during the day when most other shuttles are running. As the largest, Epic Mountain Express tends to offer the most departures (so it’s easy to get rescheduled if your flight is late) and is the best off-season service. Otherwise, most offer similar products at a similar price — don’t be afraid to deal-shop and call around for the best times. Most shuttles also offer free WiFi.
