Almont Resort, Restaurant and Bar 47

A turnoff between Gunnison and Crested Butte, Almont Resort, Restaurant and Bar 47 operates as a rest stop where travelers pull in for coffee, a burger, or a drink and end up staying longer than planned. The property houses Mule's Ear Bakery, a spot for quick bites and signature pastries lovingly crafted by pastry chef Lyndi, alongside Bar 47, which serves contemporary and classic American cuisine seven days a week. The restaurant operates daily from 3 p.m. to 9 p.m., with happy hour running concurrently from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. Regular weekly entertainment includes trivia nights on Thursdays from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., offering prizes for the top three teams. The resort also functions as a lodging destination and event venue, hosting everything from rehearsal dinners to full-property weddings, with bookings now open for the 2027 season. Recent highlights have included the Risers for Rett Spring Fly-Fishing Tournament, an all-inclusive weekend supporting the Rett Clinic at Children's Hospital Colorado, and special dining events like Chef Robert’s Easter brunch featuring a carving station with prime rib and honey-glazed ham.
