You pass the shop before you pass the traffic

Denver rental shops sit behind the city traffic you are trying to beat. Resort rental desks sit behind the parking lot. Maison de Ski is directly on the way west, at the foot of the climb.

“We landed in Denver and realized we hadn't arranged ski rentals for a trip to Winter Park. We called up Maison last minute from the airport, they stayed open a little late to accommodate us which was a lifesaver. Very friendly service as well.”

Ski area questions

How far is Maison de Ski from each ski area?

From the shop at I-70 Exit 241, Loveland is 25 miles away, Arapahoe Basin 33, Winter Park 35, Keystone 38, Copper Mountain 47 and Breckenridge 50. The shop sits west of Denver, so you are ahead of the city traffic before the climb starts.

Which ski area is closest to Idaho Springs?

Loveland Ski Area is the closest at 25 miles, about 30 minutes up I-70 to Exit 216. It is the easiest mountain to combine with a morning rental pickup.

Should I rent at the resort instead?

Resort rentals are convenient once you are parked, but the lines on a weekend morning are long and the prices are higher. Renting at Exit 241 on the way up means your gear is fitted and tuned before you reach the base area.

Can I pick up gear the night before and still return it at the resort?

No. Rentals return to the same shop in Idaho Springs by 7 PM on your last day. If traffic or weather keeps you late, call 303-567-2044 and we will arrange a late return.
