Unlike other areas in the Colorado Rockies, which cater to throngs of winter and summer visitors, the Front Range is largely a locals playground. The exception is Winter Park where more than half of the skiers and snowboarders come from out of state for multiday visits. In the summertime, out-of-state and regional visitors flock to Georgetown and Idaho Springs to explore the rustic ambience, tour a mine, and hike or mountain bike on trails that thread the mountainsides; or to Golden to tour the Coors Brewery. You won't find megaresorts or grand old lodges; but there are bed-and-breakfasts, condominiums, a few nice hotels in Golden, and some chain hotels.
