We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was perfect. The location was super convenient to the gondola and the ski valet was perfectly situated. The couches in the room were cozy and comfortable. Murphy bed worked great for our two boys to sleep on. Thanks for a great stay!

Enjoyed our stay in this lovely condo. It was very clean and the location is awesome! Desk check in person was suppose to call us when room was ready but never did call. We also did not expect the major construction noise taking place just below the balcony. Even so, we would definitely stay here again.

Perfect Vail Condo with a View!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our vacation in this perfect Vail condo! We especially liked the location, wonderful Mountain View while being steps away from all the restaurants, shops, trails of the entire Vail Village! Our days started with coffee on the balcony and ended watching the moon rise over the mountain! (Stayed in August). Communication with the owners was stellar, so helpful in every regard. They have thought of everything to have available in the condo. Location, owners, amenities = 10++ STARS!!

Comfy condo with grat view

We enjoyed staying at Rick and Sharron's condo. It was very nicely furnished and super comfortable. It was very spacious for just the two of us. The location was great--easy to get around all of Vail by bus for free and location to the Eagle Bahn Gondola can't be beat! In addition to being close to several good restaurants, there is a really great market nearby and even though we didn't cook much this time, we plan to with our next stay. The kitchen has everything needed and the market has tons of food geared toward vacation cooking. Finally, the view of the mountain and gondola was amazing! We spent plenty of time sitting out and enjoying the nice Colorado weather and even when there was a rain shower, we could still be dry on the covered deck. Enjoy!

Family vacation

What a wonderful summer time stay we had! The property itself was very well maintained, clean, and had several extras (tons of towels, card/board games, etc). The property managers/home owners were extremely communicative and helpful - best I have ever experienced at a VRBO or the like. And the location of this unit was fantastic. Right in the middle of the village - walkable to everything. Garage parking was so close I could see my car from the front door of the unit. Fantastic experience and will definitely be back!
