What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
Ski-in/ski-out access, the Elk Mountains out the window and Mt. Daly on the horizon; Snowmass is Limelight’s most outdoors-forward address.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The Elk Camp Gondola sits steps away, and the adjacent pedestrian plaza turns into an open-air ice rink each winter.

Bar
The Lounge
Wood-fired pizzas and local beers fill the tables, and mornings start with a complimentary hot breakfast buffet.
sister property Limelight Hotel Snowmass—which opened at the base of Snowmass’s slopes in late 2018—is an ideal home base for exploring the friendly ski area’s wide blue groomers and dispersed trees.
How it began
The design draws from the Roaring Fork Valley's post-mining ranching era, using raw iron, timber, and earthy wood tones.
