About Your Host
My name is Andrew Palmer and I'm looking forward to hosting your upcoming trip!
I grew up on the West Coast (Bay Area), went to college on the East Coast (Upstate New York), spent a few years in the Midwest (Cleveland, OH), before finally made my way to Colorado in 2015. All of these places have their merits, but Colorado tops them all in my book. You can’t beat our sunny days, clear lakes and rivers, high peaks, lively breweries, and adventurous people.
In 2023, I left the corporate world behind and launched a short term rental business, Alta Vista Lodging. I love being my own boss, creating exceptional spaces, providing great guest experiences, and- above all- sharing the wonders of Colorado with others.
