Have You Ever Driven a Mountain Pass?
To get to Winter Park, you need to go over Berthoud Pass. Berthoud Pass rises to an elevation of 11,307 feet and during your 12-mile trip up and down you will encounter 9 hairpin turns, steep grades, varying conditions, and even avalanche terrain. To say the least, this drive is intense if you're not used to it. But it's nothing for our seasoned Home James drivers. The average Home James driver has been driving for Home James for over 5 years, and has driven the pass literally hundreds--if not thousands--of times, in all weather conditions.
Trust the Company that's Been Here
"I'm at the airport and the other shuttle company just cancelled on me!"
We received a phone call like this every week this winter! Don't put your vacation in the hands of any other company. We have been based in the Fraser Valley since 1982. If the roads are open, we'll be there to pick you up.
Uber and Lyft Might Not Get You Here
"My driver just dropped me off in Empire and refused to go any further!"
We get this call quite a bit as well. Many Denver-based Uber and Lyft drivers are not experienced at driving in the mountains or in winter conditions. Also, there aren't any Uber and Lyft drivers that live in the Winter Park area, so don't bet your flight on the hope that there may happen to be one around on your day of departure. Leave the driving to our expert, professional drivers.
Free Changes!
Don't worry if your flight is delayed, we'll get your group on the next available shuttle for no extra charge! With 12 roundtrips a day during the peak ski season, you probably won't even need to wait long. Even if you miss the last shared shuttle of the night, we can get you on a shuttle the next morning and deliver you to Winter Park before the ski area opens! If you're worried about missing that last shuttle, make sure you book a flight at least 45 minutes before the previous shuttle time just in case.
Your Rental Car Might Not Be Properly Equipped
Colorado passed a Traction Law requiring all vehicles driving in the mountains to have proper snow tires or chains. Your rental car that you're hoping to take to Winter Park might not have the equipment that is now required by law. Tickets aren't fun, but driving in an unsafe vehicle is even worse.
The Price is Right
Did you know that it is now $66 to simply go from the airport to downtown Denver in a taxi? For a cost that is just 1/3 more, we will drive you 5 TIMES FURTHER over a mountain pass to get you directly to your lodging in the Winter Park area!
Your Public Utilities Commission regulates our pricing to keep it fair for the general public, so you can know that they have your back and that you're getting the best price for this high level of service!
