Great Location, very comfortable, fully functional. Heather took good care of us.Would love to stay there again at any time of year.

We recently stayed at the chalet for my birthday weekend. We were a group of 8 people and slept comfortably the entire weekend with room to spare. The location is unbeatable and the chalet is beautifully decorated. From the moment we booked to checkout, everything was easy and well organized. Definitely looking forward to our next trip to the chalet and would recommend to all groups!

Our group had a wonderful time at Heather's chalet. It's bigger than the pictures make it seem and very well kept and cozy. It's also steps from the mountain which is perfect for those who want to get out on the slopes right away. Heather was a pleasure to work with. Would definitely come back!

If you love mountains, if you love snow, if you love hiking, if you love biking, if you love being treated right and feeling like you're at home, then you'll love this house in Vail. No kidding. It's about the best place to stay in Vail bar none and that includes all the fancy hotels. Why? Well because it's like going home and being at home. There aren't cheap pots and pans, a nasty toaster, a crummy coffee maker, horrible dishes, cheap silverware and no dishwasher. Nope that's all at the other places on the mountain. In this house, where we stayed this summer with my folks and my in-laws and my kids and where I've been staying for years and years because it's the best place to stay in Vail (did I already say that?), you get to feel like you've gone home and that happens to be about 100 steps (150 in ski boots) from the mountain. If it's winter you strap on your boards, zip down to Lionshead and you're off for a day of bumps or powder, or, hopefully, both. If it's summer, you can get your bike out of the garage (yep, you can put your bikes in the garage, how sweet is that?) and zip down Forrest road to the bike path that either goes up Vail Pass or down river towards Beaver Creek, either is a good choice. There's also plenty of mountain biking, either cross country or downhill, depending on which bike you brought (or both if you love to bike). So that's all the cool outdoor stuff, but the house itself is just great. Besides the awesome kitchen utensils that I already noted, the sheets on the beds are soft, there are lots of beds, we had ten people sleeping over and it wasn't even close to being crowded, there are plenty of bathrooms so only the kids have to share and there are some groovy photos from the 1970s when Vail was young and still trying to establish itself as a cool place to go. Heather, the manager, rocks. She lives down the road in Eagle, but she let us in right when we got there and made sure my folks were comfortably accommodated, got my in-laws into the next best bedroom and showed my kids around so they felt like they were at home in about 5 minutes. There was some wine in the 'fridge that we immediately drank before we walked down the hill for dinner at a restaurant that Heather recommended. I've been here in both summer and winter and I love the house. If you want to go and ski in Colorado then you really ought to consider staying here. It's cheaper than a hotel and you get to cook all your own food, which after a day of skiing or hiking is going to be way better than going out because you get to eat more for less, which, in Vail, is a pretty big deal. The house is ideal for a big group and Heather will make sure that you have the absolute best time possible (unless it rains in summer or there's no snow in the winter, but that never happens). Anyway, this is a for sure place, so if you're going to Vail, stay here, you definitely won't regret it.

We stayed with our adult children, their partners and a couple of 'extras'. The Chalet was in a perfect position, spacious and well appointed. The self contained flat was HUGE and offered a perfect private retreat. We had a great holiday in Vail.

Nos encantó la casa. Tiene una sala grande con una chimenea ideal para quedarse a descansar o leer si uno no esquia. Fuimos dos familias con hijos adolecentes y todo fue perfecto. Se podia esquiar directo a la casa lo que fue maravilloso. La casa es muy acojedora. La cocina esta muy bien equipada. Cocinamos casi todos los dias. Los mercados estan cerca asi como la villas de Vail y Lionshead. Tiene un cuarto abajo con baño y sala ideal para una familia pequeña. Cuando regresemos a Vail volveriamos a alquilar la casa!

The property is very clean and close to Lions Head. The house accommodated our large group comfortably. The fire place was my favorite feature, with openings on 3 sides; plenty of wood to keep burning. It is not a true "ski in/out" but it is a short walk to the run that leads to the gondola at Lions Head. Great property overall! Items told to the property manager to improve: The oven/stove do not cook true to temp & the knives need sharpening. She said she would address those issues immediately. We chose to cook all of our meals at home, and the kitchen set up allowed us to do so easily. Having a grill on the deck was awesome! The internet went down while we were there and the property manager drove up the next day to reset it. Lovely property and we will stay here again.

This Ski-in was at a great location for skiing in Vail, just a 3 minute walk from Lionshead Vail Square. If you want to get the first tracks on the snow, this is the place to stay. The wooden interior was very clean and cozy, with a nice fire place in the living room. It also had a jacuzzi which was great for after skiing! Plenty of beds and bedrooms for large families or groups to stay. I felt very much at home, and I would love to come here again.

A wonderful home just 100 yards from the slope. Perfect for a family or a group of friends. The is ideal to relax after a hard day hitting the slope or just enjoying Vail village. Plenty of room to stretch out. I definitely recommend visiting.

I have been skiing all over the us for 20 years and this is still my favorite place to stay. As a repeat guest for many years I am treated as a family friend by the owners who always extend their warmest hospitality to everyone in our group. This classic ski chalet is perfect for families or groups with sleeping areas on 3 levels for added privacy. Great room with massive fireplace and lots of windows. You can watch the Lionshead gondola moving along. No parking hassles here, just walk to the lifts. Comfortable and convenient. Plus, complimentary wine is excellent!
