Edwards, Colorado Information
A commercial mecca including
lodging,
boutiques,
restaurants, movie theaters, galleries and professional services. Founded by Frenchman Joseph Brett in the late 1800s, Edwards still exudes a certain "je ne sais quoi"... must-see and "to-be-seen" spot where New York's Greenwich Village meets the mountains. Attracted to the area by its mining potential, Brett and his family stayed in Edwards to establish a resort for executives traveling by train. As
Vail and
Beaver Creek grew, Edwards became a bedroom community for resort employees.
