Located in the heart of Colorado ski country, the resort's room rates start at $249 per night. Per our advanced mathematical skills, that averages out to about $167 a night over three nights. Not bad!</p> <p>In fact, the package sorta has us wishing we didn&#146;t have two left feet when it comes to the slopes. But not too much--after all, klutzes can still enjoy hydrotherapy in the Allegria spa plus hiking and biking in the pretty Colorado mountains.
