Out of Towners: Denver International Airport (DIA) will be the easiest airport to fly into. Once you land at DIA, you have several options for getting to the hotel in Estes Park (1.5-2 hour drive from DIA to Estes Park). 1. Uber/Lyft is available from DIA to Estes Park. However, getting a return Uber/Lyft from the hotel to DIA may be difficult. If you prefer this option, it may be best to schedule your return trip in advance. 2. Book a shuttle bus through Estes Park Shuttle (https://estesparkshuttle.com/airport-shuttle-information/). The cost is $75 per person for this shuttle and needs to be booked at least 1 week prior to your arrival. 3. DIA has many car rental options - (https://www.flydenver.com/parking-and-transportation/to-and-from/rental-cars/). In-Towners: If you're coming from CO, there is free parking available throughout Estes Park and at The Stanley Hotel. Transportation will be provided from The Stanley Hotel to the Wedding Ceremony/Reception on Friday, 8/7. More details to come. The Thursday night Welcome Party is a walkable distance from the hotel.
Hotel
The Aspire at the Stanley Hotel
The Bride & Groom will be staying the "The Aspire", a lodging option at The Stanley Hotel. We hope everyone can book a room at "The Aspire". If you prefer, you can also book a room at "The Lodge", "The Stanley Hotel" or "The Residences". (Note, The Stanley Hotel does not have air conditioning!) All four options are in close walking distance of each other. Make sure that you select "The Aspire" in the dropdown when picking a hotel (the default is the Stanley Hotel). There are many other lodging options in the area, including other hotels and Airbnbs within Estes Park. There is also a free shuttle service within the town that can take you to the Stanley for the wedding shuttle bus pick up, something to consider if booking a different hotel/Airbnb without a rental car. IMPORTANT NOTE: BOOK YOUR HOTEL ROOM EARLY!!! Room blocking did not offer our group a discount, so PLEASE book early as there are no room blocks. The Stanley Hotel is a popular destination in the summer months. We sent our "Save the Dates" early solely so people would have plenty of time to book their hotel and flights at a more affordable rate.
