Planning a family summer vacation that gives kids the adventure they crave and parents a little room to recharge? Beaver Creek makes it easy. In this luxe Rocky Mountain village, families can fill their days with outdoor fun while kids dive into unforgettable summer camps designed to explore, educate and entertain.
One of the biggest highlights for families is Beaver Creek Kids Day Camp, offered in day and week-long formats for children ages 5–12. Campers can spend their days white water rafting, zip lining, rock climbing, horseback riding, Jeep touring and even dinosaur fossil hunting. It’s the kind of experience that turns a summer trip into a true memory-maker for kids, while giving parents the chance to enjoy Beaver Creek in a different way.
While the kids are off on their mountain adventures, parents can carve out a little time for their own version of summer camp: wellness and relaxation. Treat yourself to a restorative spa experience like the Colorado Wild Rose Cure at Park Hyatt Beaver Creek Resort and Spa or indulge in the Miner’s Mineral Mud Wrap at The Ritz-Carlton Spa, Bachelor Gulch. For a slower-paced reset, spend the afternoon browsing Beaver Creek Village’s boutiques and galleries, enjoying a long lunch or simply soaking in the mountain views.
When the family comes back together, Beaver Creek offers plenty to enjoy as a group. Creekside Park is a must for younger kids, with its newly renovated nature-inspired playground, open lawn, gathering spaces and summer concert series. The base area is packed with family favorites too, including the bungee trampoline, climbing wall, gem panning and miniature golf. And no visit feels complete without Beaver Creek’s signature warm chocolate chip cookies served daily at 3 p.m.
Tweens and teens have their own go-to hangout at Hawk’s Nest Cabin, where they’ll find arcade and table games, a ski simulator, lounge space, music and fun non-alcoholic drinks in a setting designed just for them. Families can also head out together for scenic chairlift and gondola rides, hiking and biking trails, horseback rides, tennis, golf and 4×4 tours. For an easy crowd-pleaser, ride up to Spruce Saddle Lodge for lunch with sweeping Gore Range views.
Summer also brings a full lineup of family-friendly events, from BC Unplugged and Colorado Showcase concerts to Creekside performances and festive holiday celebrations.
What makes Beaver Creek stand out is how effortlessly it blends family fun with elevated comforts. Kids get the excitement of camp, parents get space to recharge and everyone comes back together for mountain moments that feel both easy and unforgettable.
If you’re looking for a summer escape that truly has something for every member of the family, Beaver Creek deserves a spot on your list. To learn more, visit BeaverCreek.com.
