COLORADO SPRINGS —The Colorado experience comes at a price – at least $400 a night per person – but there are apparently enough people willing to pay for a slice of paradise.
Bookings for The Broadmoor’s Ranch at Emerald Valley, which opened Aug. 1, have exceeded initial projections, according to officials from the 3,000-acre resort.
“Occupancy for the opening weeks has surpassed all projections. Emerald Valley is a real gem,” Broadmoor President Steve Bartolin said in a statement.
The nine-cabin, 14-bedroom rustic ranch in the Pike National Forest is about 30 minutes west of The Broadmoor hotel, off Old Stage Road, and was once a getaway for Broadmoor founder Spencer Penrose.
The Broadmoor leases the land from the National Forest Service and spent $4 million remodeling the complex, which was opened to a media tour on Tuesday.
