Owner

English
Bill and Kathy Handley knew early in their marriage that they both shared a love for Colorado. Although they have made Florida their year-round home, they always looked forward to visiting Colorado several times each year during their 32 years of marriage. They loved to ski, snowmobile, and snowshoe with their daughters in the winters. During the summers, they enjoyed incredible hikes with wildflowers and mountains galore, biking around Lake Dillon, whitewater rafting, and going on day trips to nearby towns. Bill and Kathy had a dream to eventually own a home in Breckenridge, their favorite place in Colorado. That dream became a reality a few years ago, when they were able to purchase Alpine Paradise, a beautiful two-bedroom condo located in the heart of Breckenridge. Their trips became even more frequent and they started renting the condo when they were not using it. Call us at 813-685-7272 or go to www.breckheaven.com for rental information.
