It's a bird, it's a plane, it's the Rocky Mountain Balloon Festival!


Good Morning, Estes Park!



I was lucky enough to visit the town of Littleton, Colorado last weekend during the Rocky Mountain Balloon Festival.  Everyone had their heads turned toward the sky to watch the colorful balloons float across the park.  It was quite the sight!  Baldpate guests kept their eye on the sky last night as well, as they watched a beautiful sunset from our perch on Twin Sisters Mountain.  The pink light of the sunset flooded into our sun porch, as dinner guests enjoyed their meals. I had to snap a few pictures!

Come and taste a part of Baldpate history today, as our chefs debut two new (and DELICIOUS) muffins!  Chef Jason's camping trip a few months ago inspired his creation of a S'mores muffin that he made for the staff here at The Baldpate.  It quickly became such a favorite among staff members that we decided we could no longer keep it for ourselves!  J's S'more muffins will be on our buffet along with Innkeeper Lois' new Peachy Pam's Almond muffins....named after yours truly!  A little bit of peach, a little bit of almond, and named after me! What more could you want?!  Come and try one of each....we know you'll be back for s'more!

Our soup pots will be filled with Cowboy Buffalo Stew and Corn Chowder.  Try a bowl with a side of our famous cornbread!  We look forward to seeing you today!  For reservations, please call (970) 586- 6151.
