Phippsburg, CO

Set along Highway 131 just south of Oak Creek, Phippsburg is a small, quiet community with deep railroad roots in the Yampa Valley. The town started out in the early 1900s as a bustling division point on the Moffat line, complete with a busy roundhouse and housing for rail workers. These days, life here moves at a much slower pace. Residents enjoy a peaceful, down-to-earth atmosphere with open mountain views, all while staying within an easy half-hour drive of Steamboat Springs for work, shopping, and skiing.
