Colorado's Frontier :: Authentic West Guaranteed
Fun on the Frontier :: Cultural, Historic, Family Adventure and More!

Westcliffe, Silver Cliff and Custer County Area

Tucked away in a quiet valley and flanked by the majestic Sangre de Cristos and Wet Mountains is a rare place. It is a place that is sheltered from the overcrowded, fast paced world. There’s not a traffic light in the entire county.  We don’t have traffic, unless you count antelope, deer and elk. 

A secret spot where unspoiled, natural beauty exists and people still stop to say hello. Rich in outdoor enjoyment, this special valley provides the kind of vacation that rejuvenates your soul. Those lucky enough to live here never tire of the panoramic views and the easy hospitality of this close-knit community.

With Pikes Peak to our northeast, the Royal Gorge and Monarch Ski Resort to our northwest and the Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve to our southwest, Custer County is a great place for a vacation.  You can stay in a B&B or a tent.  Ride a horse or an ATV.  Listen to great bluegrass or the wind whistling through the aspens.  Eat rack of lamb or a hotdog roasted over a fire.

If you’re looking for a place without the big crowds, the place your well-traveled friends have yet to discover, take “the road less traveled.” Welcome, and join us for a visit and discover a refreshing getaway to the mountains.   Visit www.custercountyco.com
