Through years of changing ideas leading to The Pad, one always remained constant: to be as socially & environmentally responsible as possible. We want to inspire not only our guests, but our colleagues and community as well, by showcasing how a business can create a positive impact for people & the planet through thoughtful consideration of employee equality & wages, product procurement, waste & recycling, and support for local artisans and businesses.

Our beautiful home in Summit County has the unique ability to be within an hour of a major metropolitan area, while keeping its small-town vibe. Easy access to a multitude of world-class recreational opportunities are why our guests will travel here and stay with us at The Pad. It’s critical that we do everything we can to lessen our impact on the environment and do the right thing for our community, our employees, our partners and our planet to mindfully balance profit and purpose.

By achieving the B Corp certification, we are accelerating a global movement to redefine success and build a more inclusive and sustainable economy.

We bring an affordable, yet high-amenity, lodging option to resort areas so that our guests can focus their spending on activities and experiences in the Rocky Mountains and our community. We believe that lodging cost should never be a deterrent to travel, and that you shouldn’t have to forego comfort to uphold this value.

We have created a space that is chic, comfortable, environmentally & socially conscious and efficient in design. Our commitment to the environment and community inclusiveness is integral to The Pad. At the core of our mission, we truly believe that every choice can have a positive impact, and we are setting forth to foster support and sustainability in all that we encounter.

We are being super thoughtful in the products we carry and the partners who we collaborate with, finding areas that are traditionally wasteful, and striving to do better. In these efforts, we consciously choose to work with vendors and businesses who support their employees and have a mission that is beyond profit, so that together, we can make the world a better place.
