We do a lot of things well here in Telluride, but there is something we at Accommodations in Telluride believe we do especially well, providing festivals that are fun, exciting, and so well planned, the only downside is that eventually they must come to an end! The Telluride Corvettes & Colors Festival is one of our favorite examples, combining speed, style, and the beauty of the Colorado fall foliage. This is one event we impatiently wait for every year. Our Accommodations in Telluride festival cabins in CO will offer a soft place to land after a long day of cars and fun.
A Little About the Festival
For three days at the end of September and beginning of October, the colors of fall intensify as the Corvettes begin to appear on our landscape. The trees turn to reds, golds, and oranges, but the stars of the show, the cars, will come in an array of rainbow colors, each sure to make you want one of your own. Anyone with their own corvette is encouraged to join in the fun, and as this is more than just a car show, guests can expect to engage in walking tours of our mountain town, the registration dinner generally held at the Telluride Regional Airport in new Hangar 30, and listen to keynote speakers filled with all the knowledge of corvettes new and old. And that is just on the first day!
Throughout the three days of horsepower and harvest beauty, there is a road rally to Dolores, a poker run to Ouray, lunches, dinners, and the annual Corvettes on Colorado parade that will fuel the flames of your desire to own one of these beautiful little cars. An awards lunch on day three could be the climax of the event as you discover who really does have the best of the best, but there is an optional after event, Sunset Alpenglow Happy Hour, that lets the magic last a little longer!
The Fast Drive Back to Your Accommodations in Telluride Seasonal Sanctuary
We aren’t encouraging speeders, we are just saying that our Accommodations in Telluride cabin retreats in Colorado can be found all over the town and the mountain, ensuring that your journey home will not be one that last very long. The cars, all sleek, shiny, and colorful, are a wonderful sight to see, but just as with your own homes, the lights of our cabin retreats in Colorado will bring a warmth to your soul. Made of wood, stone, and glass, each structure springs from the landscape, appearing to have been planted in its spot, and when the night sky is the darkest (sunset comes earlier in the fall), the lights that stream out of the windows of your home sweet vacation home will welcome you, inviting you in to explore the warmth, comfort, luxury, and hospitality we are known to provide for tired travelers. Step through that front door, hang your jacket on the coat rack (or closet) found just inside, and go ahead and kick your shoes off!
Testimonials
Tired Feet Will Become Happy Feet
All of our festivals are fun and satisfying, but you may have noticed that there is a lot of walking, a lot of standing, and very little rest involved in looking at the shiny cars, and so your feet may become very tired. If you are participating in the Rally and the Poker Run, other muscles may be achy—those corvettes aren’t known for their spaciousness—and when you walk inside our space for the first time, you will be pleased to note all the options for relaxation to be had here.
Living rooms furnished with plush sofas encourage you to plop right down, prop your feet on cushions or coffee tables, and grab the remote to our state-of-the-art television, hopefully after you have started a fire in the fireplace. Bedrooms with the most comfortable beds in the state will be where you have dreams of driving the Corvette that was your favorite. And the moments you spend on the back porches, decks, and patios are when you will daydream as you savor the quiet of the day, sipping coffee and breathing in the crisp and clean mountain air.
