This stunning Vail vacation rental designed by a local interior designer has access to a seasonal swimming pool, a year-round hot tub and sauna, and is in a prime location for enjoying the Vail Valley's many recreational opportunities.

Located on the edge of Vail, it's just a three-mile drive or shuttle ride to the Vail ski slopes, or a 10-mile drive or shuttle ride to Beaver Creek Resort for skiing/riding in the winter or hiking, biking, and base village activities like zip lining and scenic gondola rides in the summer.

This beautiful two-bedroom, two-bathroom home with a loft sits on a sprawling lawn before the banks of Gore Creek, and has a colorful, modern interior that is relaxing and sophisticated. Green wood accents give the home a mountain lodge feel.

This home is equipped with its own spacious mud and laundry room, perfect for storing gear and tossing dirty laundry directly into the wash. Entertainment includes WiFi for music streaming, cable to catch the latest sports' highlights, and a Blu-ray DVD player for Redbox rentals.

The fireplace warms the space while guests gab on the sofa and make a meal in the full-service kitchen with blue cabinets and stainless steel appliances. Pile the dishes in the dishwasher and take nightcaps outside on the porch while young guests play a game of toss, explore the old gondola cabin, or take a swim in the summer months. Take a soak in the shared hot tub and a steam in the sauna.

Up to six guests (four adults at most, please) will sleep comfortably in the two bedrooms upstairs. There is a bathroom upstairs and another downstairs.

One bedroom has a king bed and a private deck. The second bedroom has two twin beds and a sink for additional convenience. The sofa in the upstairs reading area can be pulled out into a bed for additional accommodations.

This is a rental suited well for a young family or a group of close friends exploring the Vail Valley and enjoying endless mountain activities from hiking to spa treatments. The free town shuttle makes going from house to town and back easy and simple, so fun can be had without wasting time parking.

This Vail Valley vacation rental is the perfect place to rest your body and soul while enjoying the Rocky Mountains.

Super convenient lovely townhome
It feels like this unit was recently remodeled. Kitchen, bathrooms were all great, no issues whatsoever. Decor is perfect for a ski house. Bedrooms are good. The master is comfortable and the second bedroom has (I think) a full bed bunk over a queen. It also has its own sink.We love the fact that it is so close to the Ptarmigan bus stop.Hot tub was fantastic, but a bummer that they close the pool in winter. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Home Unfortunate Timing
The home itself inside was beautiful and clean. Exhaust fans could use some maintenance and backdoor screen repaired. The location to town was great and the stream beautiful, it helped block out the interstate noise right on the other side. The deck and lawn furniture were filthy, property manager said they would send someone to clean them but it didn’t help, if it even occurred. Our biggest complaint, the property should have disclosed there was construction work going on starting right beside our front door and continuing on to the whole street. Construction workers were polite but with the road noise and construction noise it wasn’t the serene mountain retreat we were hoping to experience. (Pictures can be provided)

Super chalet in West Vail.
This was an ideal off village condo for my family of 5 (3 kids incl. teens) right on bus route. I would definitely rent again in winter or summer. The unit was clean, nicely appointed, roomy for our family of 5 so all the kids got their own beds, pretty views since its right off Gore Creek, and easy access to the village via car or bus. The bus stop is literally out the door, so if you are savvy with public transport, this is perfect for you. 5 Star Rating!

Convenient location
It was clean and updated. Sheets were a bit worn and rough and kitchen with some limited utensils and no laundry detergent (had to buy some at local store; usually some is included at properties). No one told us the hot tub was across the parking lot in a building next to the garbage bin. Found out on our last day. Overall, smaller than I expected but, otherwise, as advertised.

Beautiful Townhouse
What a cute place! Very nicely decorated and super clean! The view in the backyard was amazing. The location was perfect just a 3 minute drive to the slopes. We had a car but the bus stop was just outside the house if needed. We would definitely stay here again. It was the perfect spot for our family!

Well Appointed in West Vail
We very much enjoyed our stay at this property and found it to be exactly as pictured and described. It is well appointed and accommodated our family of four very well. Having read the reviews prior to booking I was concerned about the beds and potential interstate noise but neither affected our stay. We found the master bed to be quite comfortable and the twin beds were on par with other rentals we've stayed in. As for the noise, we've traveled to Vail for the past 25 years and know that West Vail sits closer to I70, so we expected the level of interstate noise we could hear at this property. Having Gore Creek literally in the back yard was lovely. We would definitely return to this property.

Perfect home away from home
We loved our stay here. The place was beautifully decorated and the community is very quiet & clean. The unit is next to the stream so we were able to enjoy a few al fresco meals. The unit is very clean, well equipped (even has toasters, espresso machines, etc.) and it came fully stocked. It really was the perfect home away from home for us, and we totally recommend this place to anyone planning to travel to Vail.

Not great.
While this Home is spacious and well equipped we did not think it was kept well. The was an overwhelming smell of smoke in the house may be from the last occupants . There was a lot of dust in the carpets and floor. There was a large moth under the pillow in the guest bedroom. Overall for the cost the place was not conviently locates or maintained.
