My husband and friends all like to downhill ski and I'm really only interested in cross-country skiing. Are there ski resorts that have both right there?

The first place that comes to mind is Eldora west of Boulder -- a small ski area with fantastic XC ski trails. Eldora Mountain Resort - Nordic: Trail Map
Eldora Mountain Resort - Home

If you are looking for more of a resort experience I think there are XC trails @ Copper Mountain and Breckenridge: About Breckenridge Nordic Center « Breckenridge & Frisco Nordic Centers (http://breckenridgenordic.com/about-the-breckenridge-and-frisco-nordic-centers - broken link)

The nordic center in Vail is at the golf course. I skied there once and was unimpressed.

I'll second Eldora as some of the best cross-country you'll find in state.
