LAST DAY OF THE SEASON!

Good Morning, Estes Park!

Well, the day has finally arrived: The Baldpate Inn's last day of the season for 2008. Please come join us for lunch and help us say goodbye to The BPI for the winter. Today we will be open until 2pm and our chefs are whipping up a delicious final menu! The hearty Cowboy Buffalo Stew (made with real buffalo!) and the tasty Tomato Rice soup will be filling our soup pots today! Zucchini Nut and Trail Mix muffins will be coming fresh out of the oven and onto our buffet! Try a slice of our famous cornbread or homemade Honey Wheat bread and save room for pie! For reservations, please call (970) 586-6151 or toll-free at (866) 577-5397. We'd love to hear from you!

We've had a wonderful season and we'd like to thank you, our loyal Baldpate customers, for making it such a pleasure to work at such a special place. The Baldpate is an amazing Inn because of our spectacular views, delicious food and unparalleled collections, but also because of the fascinating and good-hearted people that walk through our door each day. We look forward to sharing with you the very special charm of The Baldpate Inn when we reopen at the end of May 2009.

Soups & Muffins

Good Morning, Estes Park!

Time has really flown by this summer! I remember when I first moved here at the beginning of May and October 12th seemed so far away. But now here we are on October 11th with just two more days left to our season at The Baldpate Inn! Tomorrow we will close after lunch at 2pm, so be sure to make a plan to come in for one last visit to The Baldpate this season! Today's menu is sure to have a lot of people calling for reservations! Red Chili and Broccoli Cheese soup will be on the buffet as well as our All-Bran and Tropical Paradise muffins! Our famous cornbread will be coming fresh out of the oven as well!

For reservations, please call (970) 586-6151 or toll-free at (866) 577-5397. We'd love to see you here today!

Soups, Muffins & Family!

Good Morning, Estes Park!
It's our last Friday of the season, here at The Baldpate Inn! Our tasty menu today includes the delicious Potato Leek soup and hearty White Chili. Banana Butterscotch (one of my personal favorites!) and Lemon Blueberry muffins will be coming fresh out of the oven and onto our buffet. Try a piece or two of our famous cornbread....it's delicious! And as always, save room for pie! When my brothers came to visit this past week, they really fell in love with the mountains, the wildlife and the food at The Baldpate!!
Here is my brother Eric, looking at a herd of Elk in the distance.

And here I am walking out to the edge of a cliff off of Trail Ridge Road.

I hope you get a chance to enjoy the mountains, the wildlife and the food at The Baldpate with your family before the season ends! For reservations in our dining room, please call (970) 586-6151 or toll-free at (866) 577-5397. We'd love to hear from you!

October 4th-Soups & Muffins

Good Morning!
The brisk morning greeted me when I headed out the door for the morning paper as the sun pierced through the clouds to highlight Longs Peak and a slight mountain breeze caused the Aspen leaves which continue to change color right before our eyes as the days pass dance! They persist on falling to the ground-reminding one of rose petals scattered amongst the floor. We have breathtaking views here at The Baldpate Inn-come on up to enjoy them!
Today our fine chefs are busy preparing two soups sure to warm you from head to toe: Cowboy Buffalo Stew and Cream of Mushroom! Swing on in for a bowl or two paired nicely with a slice of our homemade Honey Wheat Bread or our mouth-watering Baldpate Corn Bread! Want to have both but afraid you'll be too full for a wonderful slice of pie? No problem-share with a dining partner! We are serving one of my favorite muffins today: Oatmeal Blues along with our savory Zucchini Dill Muffins! Orange Cinnamon Apple, Gazpacho and Raspberry Delight are the specialty salads our lovely staff has prepared to tantalize your tastebuds today! Don't leave without a slice of pie! I recommend cherry, rhubard and chocolate (you can have it ala mode).

October!

Good Morning, Estes Park!
It is October 1st, which means you only have 12 more days to come and enjoy The Baldpate Inn before we close for the season on the afternoon of October 12th! My twin brother Eric (living in Chicago) and my older brother Alan (living in San Diego) are both making a trip to Estes to experience all of the great things I have been telling them about The BPI and Estes Park! Hopefully when they arrive they will see as many elk as I did yesterday in the park:

Back in Illinois, traffic would stop to let ducks cross the road. My brothers will be amused that here in Estes you wait for ELK to cross the road! Besides the wildlife, my brothers are especially excited about digging into our Soup & Salad buffet, which I have been raving about! Bring your family in to enjoy today's menu, which includes White Chili and Broccoli Cheese soup, as well Peanut Butter and Onion Garlic muffins. Our famous cornbread will be on the menu today, so save room for a piece or two!
For reservations, please call (970) 586-6151 or toll-free at (866) 577-5397. We'd love to see you here!
