What Types of Cannabis Vacations There Are?

Cannabis enthusiasts have a reputation for creativity, so there’s certainly no shortage of opportunities for cannabis tourism. The great thing about these trips is that, like with cannabis itself, your experience can largely be whatever you make of it. Choose something that fits your personal style, with popular options including all of the following:

 

  • Cannabis-Friendly Hotels – As time goes on, we’re starting to see more and more hotels in Colorado that have friendly attitudes toward cannabis. This means you don’t have to be sneaky about it when you come back from the dispensary with a big haul. There may still be some restrictions about where you can smoke, so just make sure to check with the front desk to make sure you get to enjoy an uninterrupted experience. Since there are so many of these hotels, you will have a good chance of finding options in many different parts of the state.
  • Camping – Cannabis, and nature go together like cannabis and food (or cannabis and movies, or cannabis and music… you get the idea). For this reason, Mary Jane has long been considered one of the best camping companions. And if you’re not a fan of sleeping on the ground, you may be more interested in a more glamorous version of the camping experience, also known as “glamping.”
  • Bud & Breakfasts – If you’re looking for something a little bit more cozy, sophisticated, and intimate than you can get at a hotel, a bud & breakfast might be just what you’re looking for. This is just what it sounds like: a cannabis-friendly version of the bed and breakfast.

How to Book Your Trip

Booking your trip is simple. In some cases, the reservation process may be slightly more detailed than it would be at a traditional hotel. For example, some locations may ask you to provide an image of your photo ID or something similar. Other than that, there really isn’t much to it besides choosing the perfect spot!

They even go so far as to offer cannabis concierge services and an introductory class for people who are relatively new to the experience. This is ideal for guests who are visiting from other states and want to learn about vapes, glass, and some key Colorado cannabis laws. Those who are already familiar with the basics are welcome to stock up on supplies before they arrive.

Other Places in Colorado to Consider

Preparing for Your Cannabis Tourism

Before you visit cannabis-friendly Colorado hotels with pet-friendly accommodations, check to see if cannabis will be provided for you. In some cases, there may be some left from previous guests or “gifted” to you by the owner. In other cases, though, there may be additional charges or you may be directed to a dispensary. That’s when you can save a lot of money by visiting Chronic Therapy before you go!
