Crested Butte Vacation Travel Blog

Since I purchased the Purple Mountain Lodge in 2003, I have been very grateful for all the wonderful response we have received about our breakfast. As the years have past, we have continued to add to our collection of breakfast recipes and continue to strive to offer the perfect breakfast.

I believe the breakfast ranks among the top three reasons why people choose a B&B in the first place:
1) A comfortable accommodation offering great character.
2) The food worthy of the stay in and of itself.
3) And the local knowledge and personal service to help you make the most of your vacation.

Over the past year we have added our own home made jams to go along with our croissants and biscuits, a new Oatmeal Cookie recipe that everyone is trying to get from me, and a commitment to offering organic and locally grown foods when available. Being that our breakfasts are known for being large, we are also now offering half size servings. We have also started to offer early morning “Health Start, Quick Start” breakfasts for those getting out before our normal breakfast hours (8 to 9 am). And finally, because of all those who have come needing challenging specialty diets we have even been able to recreate some of our famous breakfast like the Banana Nut Belgium Waffle to be Gluten Free (available upon request). Please let us know at the time of the reservation what we can do for you.
