Come Here for the Winter, Stay for the Summer

There is a reason this saying sticks around. The ski season gets the attention, but summer is when the town really settles in.

Trails open up, evenings cool off, and the town fills with live music and farmers markets. For many buyers, that is when the decision becomes clear.

When you tour a home, ask how it feels in the other season. A great mountain property should work all twelve months.
