However, if you are longing for a world-class lakeside experience, you must make plans to visit this lake resort that was just named one of the best in the country:

Coming in at #3 on Travel + Leisure's America's Best Lake Hotels list, the Broadmoor is, according to the prestigious publication, a "great choice for active families: there’s horseback riding, rock climbing, and fly-fishing on Lake Cheyenne."

Built in 1918, the Broadmoor was originally built to be the "Grand Dame of the Rockies" and was designed by the same architects who created the world-famous Ritz Carlton.
