HERE'S WHAT THE GUESTS ARE SAYING ABOUT
ROCKY MOUNTAIN GAMING VACATION 2016 & 2017
"This has become our favorite and preferred way to vacation with our gaming friends! The friendly and attentive staff, accommodations, game variety, and sights are top notch: if outdoor adventures and board games are your thing, this is the vacation for you!" - Mai-li
"What a way to spend a week. Casual gaming hall with plenty of other activities for family that may not enjoy extended gaming sessions or want to play everything ever printed. The stunning backdrop of the mountains and the quaint downtown Breckenridge enhanced the overall experience." - Derek |
"RMGV was amazing! It's such a great combination of gaming, outdoor activities, and relaxing! We made some great friends while we were there, were able to go hiking, horseback riding, and white water rafting, explored the cute town of Breckenridge, and learned 31 new games in 5 1/2 days! This was the perfect vacation for my husband and I!" - Jon & Kathleen
"We had a great experience attending the convention. We loved that we were blocks away from downtown Breckenridge and the gondola to take us up the breck summer fun park. And a short walk to the game room with hundreds of awesome games to play. There was tons to do in the area for all ages and we would love to return!" - Dave & Jessica
"When my wife and I heard about a vacation that was both a board game convention and an opportunity for amazing hiking and outdoor activities, we knew we'd love it. What we didn't know was that we would also meet awesome new people who will probably be lifelong friends." - Jim

"My wife and I are not intense gamers, but we felt very welcomed by the other participants and the staff. The environment was very relaxed and the games were focused on fun for all at the table.

TETON CON 2013, 2014, & 2015 WERE A HUGE SUCCESS!
"From start to finish, Teton Con was even better than I expected. The other attendees were fantastic and fun to play with. The national park tours and add-on adventures were a blast and well scheduled throughout the week. The location and accommodations were wonderful. And every staff member was awesome! This was, hands down, the best vacation I've ever taken. I hope to return soon." - Chris

A huge thank you to Icarus for making this event a truly enjoyable gaming adventure, we had a blast and will definitely attend future gaming tours!" - Rachel
"If you like board gaming, and outdoor activities, there truly is no better vacation than Teton Con." - Josh & Adrianne
"Learning and teaching games can be daunting, stultifying experiences. I came to the con wanting to try as many new-to-me games as possible. Without the Icarus Tours' crew's expert direction and knowledge of the games on offer, I'm confident I'd have played less than half of the games I was able to play! I left Teton Con with many more plays under my belt than I thought would have been possible, and that alone was worth the price of admission to me." - Eric
