This house is in a great location - just a block or two from Vail Village, but in a neighborhood so it is quiet. It backs up to a pond with a beaver home, so we enjoyed watching the beaver swim around and collect branches, as well as a funny little fox who came and went frequently. The house is very comfortable and was perfect for our trip.

Amazing Stay in Vail
We had a great stay in Vail. The house couldn't be better located. We enjoyed walking into town and to the gondola to ski each day. The house was well stocked with fire wood and has a beautiful fireplace, nice kitchen with good kitchen tools/pots/pans. The bedrooms/baths were nice and it is convenient that each King can be split into two twins. If you have younger kids, note there are some tight corners and the living room & den are combined and on the smaller side. The property manager Michelle was wonderful and very responsive.

The property was as advertised. Very clean, close to the Village and Lifts. It was an easy walk to the heart of Vail, but nice to be a few blocks away on a quiet lovely street right near a beautiful stream. Highly recommend!

Nice Place in Quiet, Convenient Location
This is a unique architectural property. The location is in between the two gondolas, so you can decide which way to go each day. An 8 minute walk either way, and a short walk to restaurants and amenities. Michelle was very responsive and made check in/check out easy. Recommend that you use one of the upstairs bedrooms as the master; they are a bit larger and have a more convenient bathroom set up.

The house is amazing and Michelle was super helpful throughout our stay. The house is a pretty cool design and well equipped, we especially enjoyed the hot tub after a long day skiing. The house is well situated with an easy walk into vail village for dinner and a ~8 minute walk to the slopes. We will defiantly book this property again as it checks every box.

Perfection
We stayed here with my adult daughter and her family so 4 Adults and 2 children (4 and 11). First of all, the location is just about perfect, short walk to lifts and midvail stores and resteraunts. The interior really gives that cabin in the mountains feel with the large great room and massive fireplace. Beds are comfy (huge plus), every room is ensuite, kitchen is very well stocked including the two most important items, martini shaker and wine aerator. Managment was very communicative and helpful. Over all the perfect place for Christmas.

Family Wedding Visit to Vail
The property was fabulous. It is unique and accommodating. The space worked very well for our 6 adults. The convenience to Vail Village was perfect. The only thing that took a little adjustment was the glass open plan bathroom with glass doors to the toilet/shower. Some guests would prefer a little more privacy for the toilet…. But overall the home was delightful

Beautiful home and wonderful stay
We had a wonderful time on our ski trip to Vail. We had a larger family 6 of us, and this was perfect for our needs compared to a hotel. It was spacious and super comfortable. They also had a lot of basic amenities that some properties do not have like coffee, salt, and pepper to get you started. It’s a beautiful place, a little smaller than the photos suggest, but all in all really great. Also, I left one of my airpods, and Michelle and the cleaners found it and kindly mailed it back to me. So A+++ all the way around.

Beautiful Home and Great Location
This was a beautiful, spacious home. It had everything we needed, and it was a quick, five-minute walk to the village. The yard was perfect for sledding and building snowmen. We made so many fun memories with the kids in this place. The skiers in the group especially loved the hot tub. Beds were comfortable. There were plenty of linens. Condo was clean. Would absolutely rent it again.

Amazing Vail Home
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this gem of a home in Vail. Anything we could think of was accommodated for by the property manager. We were able to walk to the village and gondola one which made skiing super easy and fun to enjoy. The hot tub was a great way to end the days and the fireplace was amazing especially at night with a glass of wine. See will be back in June of 2024 because we loved this home so much.
