KEYSTONE, Colo. — [September, 2025] — Opening this December on the River Run base plaza, Kindred Resort, managed by RockResorts, brings a new standard of slopeside luxury to Summit County with true walk-out access, high-touch service, and spaces designed for gathering—indoors and out.

1) Luxury, slopeside
Kindred features 107 guestrooms and 95 luxury residences, three on-property restaurants plus Kindred Spirits Lounge, a full-service spa & fitness center, heated outdoor pool and hot tubs, a private club, a kids' center, and 6,000+ sq. ft. of meeting & event space. On-mountain conveniences include an on-site ski school area, ski valet, valet parking, and 24-hour front desk & bell service.
Art & place: The resort features a 200+ piece art collection curated from Mountain West artists and an evolving public art program—including a sculptural bench inspired by Keystone's peaks and large-scale murals tracing Colorado's geological journey.

2) A destination coming into its own
Keystone became Colorado's newest town in 2024, underscoring local investment and identity. On-mountain, the Bergman Express chair added lift-served access to Bergman & Erickson Bowls, including above-treeline blue terrain and, at times, groomed green options in Bergman—making bowl skiing reachable for confident intermediates, a relative rarity in U.S. skiing.

3) Slopeside that truly simplifies the day
The hotel sits on the River Run base plaza, adjacent to the River Run Gondola, with true walk-out access. On-site rentals, ski valet, and the ski-school location reduce transitions to just a few steps.

4) OpRé: Kindred's branded après-ski concept centered on fire pits and storytelling (community by design)
Evenings center around an extensive network of outdoor fire pits across the courtyard and terraces. Roving, professional Storytellers—Kindred staff trained to share local history, mountain lore, and regional culture—circulate among the fires to spark conversation and build a sense of place for guests.

5) “Campfire Luxury,” defined by experience
Approachable, tailored, experiential. Programming emphasizes guided forest snow meditations, fireside tea ceremonies, silent morning walks, sound-bath and sauna-ritual wellness, and snow-side yoga. Non-skiers can opt into snowshoeing, Nordic lessons, fat-bike outings, and scenic gondola rides, as well as reserved après seating with considered mocktail/cocktail pairings. For skiers, the team facilitates progression-friendly lessons and guided orientation to the high-alpine zones (conditions permitting).

6) Built for families—of all kinds
Steps to ski school simplify mornings. A kids' center and the full-service spa keep days balanced. Room types and public spaces are planned for multi-generational and multi-household travel, and on-site dining ranges from all-day casual to refined—so families can move easily between adventure and downtime.

“Kindred brings a new level of slopeside hospitality to Keystone—serious about access and service, and warm about the time in between,” said Dan Dohner, General Manager. “Opening in December, we're ready to welcome guests for a winter that's both elevated and easy.”

Kindred opens in December. Dining, public spaces, and guest services will lead the debut, followed by a full winter calendar. Updates at https://kindredresort.com/.
