CSU Game Day

Come for the game, stay for the weekend! The Colorado State University Rams offer a first-class CSU game day experience at their brand new, state-of-the art on campus stadium. CSU has put together an incredible weekend’s worth of activities leading up to the big games on Saturdays. 

As you book your stay to Fort Collins for the big game, we want to help you make plans and find fun things to do during your down time. Fort Collins is home to some of the best restaurants, breweries, family-friendly activities and outdoor recreation in the state of Colorado. Not to mention Fort Collins has a downtown area that inspired the creation of Disneyland Main Street USA! Let us help you plan the best game day weekend possible with some of our favorite itineraries:
