What Clients Are Saying
"Brad was amazing with both, selling and buying our homes. Brad showed us homes for about a year, I knew exactly what I wanted and wasn't going to sacrifice; he showed patience and was always available to us for showings. We did things a little backwards, Brad negotiated a contingent offer without our home yet on the market, all during a very competitive time. Once we were under contract, Brad was ready to get our home listed. We missed the peak of the market by a month and Brad was ready with the correct advice and pricing strategy, we made one price correction and got an offer, the rest of the sale went very smoothly and we closed on time. On the purchase, we ran into a few hiccups and Brad's experience allowed us all to have composure and move through them with ease. During a time where most buyers were paying the difference between appraisal and purchase price, Brad was able to negotiate a new purchase price at the appraised value. Brad is the best Realtor that we've worked with and highly recommend him to all of our friends and family."
Mike & Shannon A.
"Brad Colburn is the best real estate agent in Denver! He is a complete professional, knows the different neighborhood markets very well, understands how to market a home, has practical advice all day long, knows everyone you need for help getting your house ready for the market, gives rational, sound advice on pricing and how to respond to offers, and a fun person to be around as well! I have recommended him to friends several times, and they all think he's the best too!"
Jeff & Kathy K.
"We initially met Brad at an open house. We were casually looking at the time and we’re planning to use the Redfin agent who sold us our condo. We appreciated that Brad didn’t give us any kind of sales pitch, but rather had a casual conversation with us. He followed up with us four days later and we decided to move forward given a small dip in market. After the listing appointment, the very next day, Brad had a professional photographer out and then two days later, our condo was listed. It sold within four days over asking with multiple offers. When it came to buying our home, he was always super responsive and made sure we didn’t settle for something because of us selling our place and inventory being low. He had our back and best interest the entire time, we never had anything to worry about. We loved our experience with Brad and referred one of our friends! Don’t hesitate to work with him, you won’t regret it!"
Kyle & Kelci H.

Discover the Enchanting Holiday Magic at The Broadmoor Hotel: A Sugary Symphony of Tradition, History, and Festivity
“Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold, everything is softer and more beautiful.” - Norman Vincent Peale
Exploring Colorado during the holiday season is like stepping into a winter wonderland, and nestled within this scenic beauty lies an iconic gem: The Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs. A historic hallmark of elegance and grandeur, The Broadmoor effortlessly weaves together the spirit of the holidays and the magic of the season.
As you walk through this illustrious property during Christmastime, the air itself seems to sparkle with festive cheer. Each corner is adorned with timeless decorations, but the true centerpiece stealing the show is the annual gingerbread masterpiece. This year's creation, The Lightning Bug Canopy Boat, is a sugary marvel meticulously designed to pay homage to the resort's rich history.
Did you know that when The Broadmoor first welcomed guests in 1918, elegant canopy boats gracefully glided across Cheyenne Lake? This year's gingerbread display brings back those memories in a sugary symphony, reflecting the upcoming revival of boating experiences at the resort. With the unveiling of two electric canopy boats reminiscent of the past and a custom handcrafted canoe by Adirondack, guests can embrace history while creating new memories on the tranquil lake.
Crafted with precision and a sprinkle of holiday magic, the gingerbread boat is a sweet spectacle boasting a jaw-dropping 958 lbs. of powdered sugar, 475 lbs. of flour, and 1,801 eggs. The canopy, adorned with an array of delectable candies like candy canes, gumdrops, macarons, meringues, peppermints, and jellybeans, is a feast for the eyes and the imagination.
David Patterson, Vice President of Food and Beverage at The Broadmoor, aptly captures the essence of this tradition: "Creating the annual gingerbread display is one of our favorite holiday traditions. It's a labor of love, an opportunity to get creative, and a way to showcase different facets of the resort in a truly magical manner." www.broadmoor.com/holidays/gingerbread-display
After you've soaked in your fill of the sugary delights, step into The Golden Bee or The Hotel Bar, two iconic spots within The Broadmoor that exude warmth and charm. The Golden Bee, with its authentic English pub atmosphere and lively sing-alongs led by the famous piano man, brings a touch of jovial festivity to the holiday season. Indulge in hearty meals, festive drinks, and the joyous camaraderie that fills the air.
Meanwhile, The Hotel Bar invites you to unwind in a refined, yet cozy setting. Sip on seasonal libations expertly crafted by skilled mixologists while basking in the elegant ambiance.

This holiday season, immerse yourself in the enchantment of The Broadmoor. Wander the festively adorned halls, sip on seasonal delights, and marvel at the sugary craftsmanship of The Lightning Bug Canopy Boat. It's not just a display; it's a testament to the enduring charm and festive spirit that makes life in Colorado so extraordinary.
