Colorado Sleigh Ride Dinners with Two Below Zero
This experience is a must when vacationing in Keystone! Two Below Zero is located in Frisco, so that is only about a 20 minute drive from Keystone. It is a short drive and worth it! We also had a coupon from our lodging company SummitCove, so that helped with the cost.
We met in a little cabin at the Frisco Nordic Center and then we loaded on to our sleigh pulled by big beautiful horses. The sleigh driver was a funny guy and provided some fun entertainment and stories. The sleigh ride was a beautiful trail through the woods and we saw several shooting stars up in the night sky! I have never seen that many shooting stars in one place in my life! We were dressed warm but they also gave us big blankets to put over our laps, so we were plenty warm!
Once we arrived to the cookhouse it was warm and cozy inside. We started with some wine and then the entertainment began. Nashville born country western singer David Peel delighted us with John Denver, Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson songs! He is interactive with the guests and gets the kids on stage with him. He was a hoot and made the night memorable! The food is chuck wagon style; meat, potatoes and veggies, simple but delicious! For dessert they have yummy pie and even peppermint schnapps in hot cocoa (or without the schnapps for the kids!). They also offer vegetarian and gluten-free meals upon request.
After our bellies were full, our heads had a little buzz of wine and we had big smiles on our faces from the country western singer, we loaded back onto our sleigh and off the horses went pulling us through the forest. Again, we saw shooting stars and there was music in the air because we sang songs with everyone in the sleigh on the way back. It was an amazing family experience and we made some new friends on this adventure too. We will definitely be doing this again! Thanks Two Below!
