Check the Travel tab for hotel recommendations. There are also lots of great Airbnbs in the area. This may be a good option if you are traveling with a large group.
We provide details on the two local airports in the Travel tab. The Colorado Springs Airport is closer but will require a layover. If you fly into Denver International Airport it will probably be a similar length of travel time due to no layovers.
If you fly into Denver International Airport you will need to rent a car. If you fly into Colorado Springs Airport you should be okay without renting a car as there are Ubers available.
