Telluride

Harper's Bazaar's pick for a special getaway with children.  Former gold mining town turned into a posh retreat with a real taste of the Old West.  All types of activities, including riding, quad-biking. "It's the most fantastic place for a family escape," writes the magazine about Dunton Hot Springs.  Cabins sleep 2-4 people.  The resort can be rented in its entirety for 26.  In July 2012, Vogue announced the launch of Cresto Ranch, "a separate resort with eight luxurious safari-style tents, all with private bathrooms and porches, not to mention glorious views, set near a restored farmhouse serving as restaurant and lounge."
