Today begins The Baldpate Inn's yearly Christmas in July celebration. Our halls are decked, our stockings are hung, and festive tunes are playing. This year's staff is hard at work for the 2020 Gingerbread House Competition, with many creative ideas brewing. Stay tuned to see the final designs and pick the winning team!
Did you know that the Christmas in July tradition goes all the way back to 1922? This newspaper clipping from the Estes Park Trail announces that the guests of The Baldpate Inn celebrated Christmas #2 with all the trimmings: a tree, handmade presents, and decorations galore. Today we continue this time-tested tradition with a little friendly competition and Christmas cheer. Perhaps most exciting of all, you won't want to miss out on our Holiday Beverage Specials! Get your Cranberry Mimosas, Peppermint Schnapps Hot Chocolate, and Hot Buttered Rum this weekend only! Hope to see you soon! 🎄
