East Vail Mountain Home - Hot Tub and VRBO Rated 5 Star ToV STR Lic. # 026398

Wonderful family home! Ideal for multi-family get-away! VRBO Stayed Here VRBO Rated. mid-Week Specials Sunday - Wednesday.

About 2,075 sq ft, 4 level home with 3 bedrooms, 2 small ensuite lofts, 3 1/2 bathrooms & garage. Parking for 2 to 3 cars.

Beautifully remodeled and newly furnished East Vail private home. Your family and friends will enjoy this lovely, comfortable home. Light and bright with vaulted ceilings and beautiful mountain views. Comfortable beds await you after a hard day of mountain play. Let our mountain home be your mountain home.

The two master bedrooms each have an ensuite loft which is not included in the square footage calculation for the home. Each loft has steep, narrow stairs not suited for small children. It is suggested that children should use the bunk room. 6 of the 8 beds in the house are not in the loft, only 2 beds are in the lofts (1 twin bed in one loft, 1 queen in the other loft).

The large open living room features a 46” flat screen, cable TV above a stone fireplace and inviting leather sectional sofa, perfect for relaxing and conversation. Cable TV. Catch a beautiful après ski sunset out on the deck.

All new kitchen has premium appliances, alder cabinetry, granite counters, and heated slate floor. The kitchen is outfitted with everything you need to prepare and serve a wonderful meal. The large kitchen table seats eight comfortably with additional seating for four along counter. Plenty of room for all to gather.

Bedrooms all have their own separate bathrooms, new mattresses and flat screen TVs.

Bedroom #1 upstairs - has a queen bed and a spiral staircase leading up to 2 twin beds. The loft is small and ideal for an extra visitor or two. There is also a small private deck off this bedroom.

Bedroom #2 - has a queen bed. A tucked-away staircase leads up to a cozy open loft with a queen bed.

Bedroom #3 (Bunkroom Basement) - has one twin/twin bunk and one full/full bunk. The bunkroom can easily sleep 4 children of any age, a family of 5, or a group of friends. There is a separate powder room off the kitchen/living room.

The house accommodates 8 to 10 people very comfortably.

Garage access and powder room are located off the entry foyer and the kitchen. It is convenient and easy to pull up to the house and unload skis and gear into the garage. The garage has overflow shelving for storing anything you may you bring. There are also benches for easy changing in/out of your ski boots. The foyer has space to keep jackets, shoes, and boots warm and dry. Laundry area is located on lower level accessible through the entry foyer.

Don’t waste time driving around Vail navigating parking garages and parking lots! Don’t settle for a dinky condo with limited parking. Experience the convenience of East Vail. Our home is located at the western end of East Vail on the free Town of Vail bus route with easy freeway and frontage road access. East Vail’s only market is just a short walk from the house, about 2 football fields East. Gore Creek and the Vail bike path are directly across the street. Walk to many different trailheads. There’s ample parking for two cars+. Make the most of your vacation dollars in this family-friendly home.

The Pitkin Creek Bus Stop is about 200 yards from our front door. The East Vail overflow parking lot is adjacent to our neighborhood at the East Vail I 70 exit. The Bus runs every 15 minutes during peak season hours. It is very easy to catch the bus and we rarely use our car once we arrive at our house.

This is the home you will want to come back to year after year..

Perfect family ski home!

This is a great property and with a perfect host. I will try and capture all the good things:1) Communication with host is outstanding. Richard communicates with you often and is available if you have any questions. However, everything is spelled out for you at check-in as well.2) Location is great. Bus stop is right by the house and since you are one of the last stops before Vail village and first on the way home - bus ride is quick and buses run often and on time. The house is right by the highway but, it never bothered us. There is a little grocery right up the street (within walking distance) for a quick dinner or to grab some basics.3) The house has everything you need. Beds are so comfortable including bunk beds. Kitchen is well stocked including spices, condiments, etc. Bathrooms have everything especially if you forgot something. There are plenty of games, throw blankets to keep you warm by the fireplace, extra towels for hot tub and so much more. They even have a bin of "lost and found" wear which has a lot of extras that actually can come in handy in emergencies (i.e. need one extra layer of something).4) The large hot tub is an added bonus especially after a hard day of skiing. It works wonderfully and if you have a question, again Richard is right there to help you.We will book this location again. As a family, we decided it is one of the best!

Best Ski Vacation Home

It was wonderful to have all the space for the family. The house was clean, well equipped, and the beds were amazingly comfortable. The free ski shuttle was easy walking distance with ski boots on, easier than parking at the mountain! The hot-tub was perfect for recovery, will stay again!

Great Vail Ski House

We couldn’t have been happier with our week’s stay at the Big Horn house for our guys ski vacation! We took full advantage of the very comfortable living space, garage doubling as a ski locker, full bedroom suites, 8 person hot tub, and the many other amenities. It was really enjoyable to end our days on the mountain staying in for relaxed cooking, drinks and meals around the kitchen and dining room table. Super grateful for time at your roomy, very convenient, and lovely ski house. The four of us can’t wait for our next stay at Big Horn in 2026!

Great home!

From start to finish it was a great stay. Richard and Katie are great hosts and go out of their way to make for a smooth stay. Lovely home, well appointed kitchen, which got lots of use. Hot tub provided perfect post-ski therapy. Plenty of towels, comfortable beds, living room layout made for great game nights. Location is 5 min walk to bus and then a 10 minute ride, making a car useless. Would absolutely stay with Richard and Katie again!

Exceptional Property

I am so happy i booked this property for my family summer vacation. The house was extremely clean with all the amenities you could possibly need. We visited during a heat wave and noticed the listing said there was no AC. However, this was not an issue at all. With a few windows open the mountain breeze cooled the place down within minutes. The house even got too cold on a few occasions. There were so many fans located in the house too! Its in a quiet neighborhood right next to the river. My kids had a blast playing in the water and seeing the fish swim. The hot tub was so clean and perfect temp for the summer nights. The best way to relax after a long day of activities on the mountain. I couldnt imagine staying in Vail Village with all of the other people. The house is only minutes away from the village so you can easily get your tourist fix and then head back to the peace and quite neighborhood with beautiful views. I would 100% reccomend this house to any of my friends and family and i will absolutely be looking to book this property next time i visit Vail. Thank you so much to the owners that make this family friendly house available. My family created memories that we will cherish forever!

Wonderful Vail home

We had 7 women in our party ages 20-60. It was a great location, very clean and met all our needs. We utilized the bike path across the road from the property every morning. Loved the hot tub after our hikes. Can’t say enough about the host, Richard. His communication is a 10 and extremely helpful. Both staircases to the lift are steep but we knew that going in. Not a big problem but be selective on who sleeps up there. I would go back in a heartbeat.

This one checked all the boxes - totally satisfied!

We just had such a fantastic time on our Vail vacation! The well-appointed, high end accommodations and thoughtful amenities at Bighorn House not only met, but exceeded our expectations. Richard was truly an amazing host. He was extremely helpful and responsive to any and all questions or concerns that arose both before and during our stay, providing assistance and helpful tips on skiing and what’s available in the area, as well as recommendations on where to eat and shop (definitely need to make any dinner reservations ahead of your arrival). The home lends itself well to groups or multiple families, as each “master” bedroom upstairs has a loft providing extra sleeping accommodations, and an en-suite bathroom. The lower level bedroom also has an en-suite, with two bunk beds; one with top and bottom singles, and one with a single top and double lower bed. The beds were extremely comfortable and the plush white towels enhanced that end of day hot shower. There are lots of extra blankets and pillows, and plenty of storage. The washer/dryer came in handy to refresh ski gear mid week. The heated kitchen and entryway floor is a welcome touch first thing in the morning, and the hot tub is easily accessed right outside the back door. The kitchen is extremely well equipped, with most anything you need should you want to prepare meals. I recommend you hold off going to the grocery (or only pick up your perishables) until you have a chance to check out the condiments, spices and refreshments (there’s an extra fridge in the garage), cleaning and laundry products, and things like ziplock bags that are available for your use, with the expectation that you replace whatever you do use up. This is such a great concept as it definitely helps cut down on your grocery bill, and you’re not tossing perfectly good non-perishables at the end of your stay. You can’t beat the convenience of the Town of Vail free bus - the bus stop is a very short walk to the right out the door and just left at the end of the driveway. You can text “Nbus Vail 953” to 41411 to find our when the next bus arrives before heading out the door. We’ll be back and definitely will not hesitate to book Bighorn House again. Thank you Richard for your part in making our trip such a wonderful and enjoyable experience!

Stayed here to check out this property to host a wedding group in October. Beautiful home with amazing art, rooms, and views. We hiked a trail nearby and saw plenty of wildlife including the friendly fox that visits the house. The hot tub was the cherry on top of the weekend trip... we hardly got out of it! Lots of room for guests to spread out so no one is on top of each other.
