BEAVER CREEK. This truly exceptional experience begins with your party enjoying a 20-minute, moonlit sleigh ride (or a horse-drawn wagon ride during the warmer months) from the base of Centennial Lift to a rustic-yet-modernized cabin located high on the mountain. Inside, you'll find a cozy – even romantic – dining space marked by oil-burning lamps, ceiling-high windows, tables appointed with white linens and, perhaps, a crackling fire. Beano's features prix fixe dinners only, and the menu includes such frontier-inspired fare as wood-grilled venison with Fontina cheese-potato tart, Colorado lamb loin with creamed leaks and roasted shitakes, and pan-seared breast Muscovy with baby bok choy. Reservations are a must.

Reservations are strongly encouraged.

EDWARDS. Located less the five miles from the Beaver Creek Resort area, this highly regarded restaurant is well worth the drive, especially if a casual, family-friendly setting and terrific red meat and seafood dishes are what your group craves. There's no question that the rustic Gashouse, which is housed in a log cabin that predates World War II, has long been an Edwards favorite. Of an evening, it's not uncommon to find the place packed with folks enjoying the likes of baby back ribs, prime rib, and fresh salmon under the watchful eyes of hunting trophies gathered from around the world.
