Overview
Loveland Ski Area in Colorado, located near the Eisenhower Tunnel, is known for its high altitude, resulting in early snowfall and long seasons. The resort offers a variety of terrain, appealing to all skill levels, with an emphasis on intermediate and advanced skiing. Loveland's lack of on-site lodging keeps the slopes less crowded and maintains a local ski hill feel. The resort is split into two areas, Loveland Basin and Loveland Valley, each offering distinct experiences. Loveland's base area features simple amenities, focusing on the skiing experience rather than resort-style extras. Loveland Ski Area is perfect for those seeking a pure skiing experience with easy access from Denver.

Skied loveland for years with a season pass. We live in Denver so it's the nearest and quickest option to ski - we can drop the kids at school in Denver, be in Loveland in an hour, ski all day and be back to pick them up at 3.30. Perfect.
The lift lines are tiny, so you can get a lift and ski the run back to the lift base to do it all again in 15 min average each time. Peak 8 is generally the last to open and the best. A small old school mountain with no accomodation and a lot of locals. Love it!
Because Loveland ski area is before the tunnel you miss all the hecticness of going over the pass / through the tunnel and then the huge downhill after to A basin or Keystone. Yes loveland is small but it's got a unique feel and unlike nearly everything else its still independent and not part of Vail resorts.
