Great Western Lodging (GWL) was founded in May of 1997 by Chad Christy. Our core management team has over 75 years of collective experience in the Summit County vacation rental & property management market. Our goal has always been to be the best, not the largest. Since we have always focused on quality over quantity, we annually turn down 4-5 times the management opportunities that we accept. For 27 years, GWL has had a continued track record of success, being very precise as to what works for us and what doesn’t, and also what will work in Summit County and what will not.
We recognize that people in Summit have a choice. What sets our homeowners and guests apart is our commitment to service and caring about what we do. Being a locally owned and operated company has allowed GWL to be very proactive, and not reactive, in our management style. Additionally, we have been fortunate to have extremely low turnover in core management staff. This is a tremendous asset in such a transient area, and is testament to our team’s success and passion for what we do each day.
We are active members of the Vacation Rental Managers Association (VRMA), and also are an accredited business with the Better Business Bureau, maintaining an A+ rating. This includes our commitment to make a good faith effort to resolve any consumer complaints. Additionally, we are very active in the local community as members of the Breckenridge Tourism Office and the Breckenridge Lodging Association.
