“definitely the best option”
My wife and I spent 6 days skiing the last week of march 2009 at Beaver Creek, lovely place to ski, no crowded lifts, beautiful groomed trails. The Townsend Place is a quiet building 300 yards to the base of the mountain, thus, you must walk with your skis and boots all the way to the nearer lift (is not a ski in/out hotel as adverstised), the room was very spacious, with two full bathrooms, full kitchen, dishwasher, refrigerator/freezer, stove, microwave, utensills, etc. Everyday our apartment was cleaned, and they leave us plenty of fresh towells. There is no supermarket nearby, you must take a complimentary shuttle to Avon to go to City Market.
