Lovely Home in Great Location

This is a wonderful property to visit in the winter. You can walk over to the Born Free run with no problem. There is an easy walk to the village and to the bus stop. The property is comfortable and warm. The management is responsive to issues and easy to work with.

Fourth of July Getaway

This house is incredible. Plenty of room to spread out and have your own privacy. There are a lot of stairs, with the main living space being on the fourth level, but there is an elevator to make things easier. The house had almost everything we needed. It is located steps away from the Gore Creek Trail that takes you to Lionshead Village as well as Vail Village. The walk to Vail Village is about 30 minutes, but it is a beautiful walk and well-worth it. We spent our evenings out on the patio enjoying the sunset. The property manager, Jessica, was awesome. She will help you with whatever you need.

Luxurious Lionshead masterpiece

House was exactly as pictured stunning architecture. Fabulous views of Lionshead village ample room hot tub was amazing after a ski day on the slopes. Elevator was handy since the house, including the two car garage spans five stories with a main living area on the fourth floor. Each room has an en suite bathroom, which is very handy. Minor issue with one of the toilets. The property manager was very prompt in responding and the plumbers came and fix the problem with courtesy and punctuality. 0.3 miles trek on the Gore Creek Trail, to the main gondola at Lionshead. walking by the creek was very serene.

Great house and location

We had a very nice stay here. Location is amazing as its just a short walk to ski -- not ski in /ski out but you can carry your skis to the mountain. Usually in am one of us would pile the skis in the car and drop folks off as its the house is at the other end of the street. The place is really nice -- big rooms with each having a bathroom. All on different floors so its a lot of stairs unless you want to wait for the elevator (which is great but slow). The kitchen and great room are great -- its the only communal room but fit all 8 of us. Hot tub was perfect after long day of skiing. Beds were comfortable. Water pressure great. The one downside is that the hallways were really cold -- even with space heaters that the manager brought. but it was great to have heated floors and garage. The manager was great -- we had a few issues and they resolved them immediately. I appreciate it. We definitely enjoyed the visit. Its a great house but NOT for folks that have issues with stairs or walking. Stick to condos on the mountain. I would really like to come in summer as they have a bunch of balconies off each room so be nice to enjoy and go hiking. Thanks!

Fabulous Home

We had such a wonderful stay at this house. Everything was top notch and the location to the ski slopes and Lionshead was perfect. The walk up the road to the slopes was a little tough for the little kids but it was a quick drop off at the top of the street. The view is beautiful. Everything we needed was there in the home. The elevator was helpful for unpacking and packing. A favorite was the steam shower in the master. I would highly recommend this place for your vacation and would love to stay here again. The only recommendations I have was to note the doors lock behind you so make sure you have the code and the hot tub has a little too much chemical in it for sensitive skin. Great ski vacation.

Great ski home in Vail

We had an amazing time at this home. The home itself is very clean and accessible for skiing at Vail It is conveniently located close to the Born free (green) run off the Eagle Bahn gondola (Lionshead village). Its a short walk to the run which everyone in our group easily handled. House was big and had plenty of room for our 2 families. The radiant floor heating and elevator in the house was a new experience for me and it was sooo nice. The double garage was heated so it was easy to put our skis and poles in there at the end of the day. We cooked nearly every meal in the house and the kitchen was great for our large group while enjoying the view of Vail Valley. The private jacuzzi was perfectly situated for a post-ski soak and cocktail. Jessica was a super host. She was communicative with answers to questions via email and was very accommodating to any of our requests. Would not hesitate to book again if ever in Vail!
