U.S.News just put out their list of 25 towns that are great to visit for a vacation. Colorado has three on that list; no other state came close, of course.

Well, at the very least, you might want to put these three towns on the list of places that will be totally busy next summer.

U.S.News & World Report put out their annual list ranking the 25 best small towns to visit in America.

TOPPING the list -- TELLURIDE

Not surprising that Telluride would come out as #1 on this list of 25. Skiing, hiking, festivals galore; along with the village and those VIEWS!

#8 - STEAMBOAT SPRINGS

If you haven't been to Steamboat yet, shame on you. You don't have to be a cowboy or an avid skier to have fun within the beautiful Yampa Valley. Heck, it's fun just to say, Yampa.

#15 - BRECKENRIDGE

Our old friend, 'Breck. Seems like ages since we've been there. USNews talks up the gold rush history of the town, along with the skiing, breweries, and distilleries.

Get the full list, and maybe choose a place OUTSIDE of Colorado to visit (it's going to get more crowded) HERE.
