Vail Meadows Chalet: Your Basecamp! Escape to this charming 4-story cabin-style home - your perfect basecamp for year round natural beauty and adventure. Located a short 0.5-miles away from the world-famous Alyeska Resort, this retreat offers the perfect balance of convenience and peaceful comfort. There's space for the whole crew including a cozy loft and 3 bedrooms with 2 King sized beds, 1-Queen, and 1-Full Bunk Bed.
Winter Wonderland Start your snowy mornings with a hot coffee on the covered deck, enveloped by a serene spruce old growth forest with resort views. Head to Alyeska Resort for the best downhill skiing Alaska has to offer, or explore the nearby Moose Meadows via snow shoe or cross country ski. When you're ready for more, try Winter fat-tire biking or contact the Local Heli-ski guides. After warming up by the wood stove or in the sauna, head out to the nearby Girdwood Brewing company and local food trucks.
Summer in the Forest In the warmer months, the spruce forests surrounding the home burst with high-bush Blueberries and Salmon berries, offering a true Alaskan experience. Follow the spectacular hiking trails to Virgin Creek Falls and Winner Creek Falls, or hike the resort for views of Turnagain arm and glaciers complete with an epic tram ride down. Enjoy the festivals, eateries or the spa. Take a day trip to fish Kenai or raft Six Mile Creek. The long summer days are perfect for enjoying the private stone patio and fire pit with unobstructed mountain views.
Whether you are looking for relaxation or adventure this is the place!
