Wonderful Vail stay perched above Gore Creek
Our group of 10 (five adult couples) had a wonderful March stay in this beautiful Vail Cascade area home. Five true bedrooms, three with en suite bath (and one of those a primary bedroom with large tub, shower, large walk in closet, etc ) and two bedrooms with a shared bath provided loads of space. The kitchen is wonderful and very well equipped…a large dining table provides space for at least ten for dining, card and game playing, etc. We did not even use two additional bunk rooms but the extra bathroom there came in handy…just off the kitchen and near the living room… The home offers great privacy with bedrooms on the top and bottom floors and the dining/living area on the middle floor. Plenty of stairs, but that was not an issue for our group…. The living room has a double height ceiling with large windows looking towards the creek. Also a gas fireplace. Hot tub very nice touch on the outside deck….. Our whole group loved the home and it served as a great base for our ski week. The Cascade lift is vey close (3 minutes) via easy car drop off. Or it is a 10 minute walk down the road and a quick ski down…..for children or more beginner skiers, I would not term this as “ski in. Ski out” but still very convenient… All in all a great stay!

The house is well appointed and kept up. Still don’t understand how we would get credit from the parking garage at the Hyatt. The only issue was the TV is streaming only and none of us could stream anything off of our services. It would be great to have basic channels as a part of the house.

Group of extended family of all ages stayed New Year’s week. We enjoyed the spacious, tastefully decorated home. The amenities suited our apres ski routine of hot tub and making dinner either in the kitchen or on the outdoor grill. The ski access is just a short walk down the road and you can ski all the way from the Cascade lift to the golden peak lift on the east side of Vail to access the back bowls easily. Thanks for sharing your home.

Terrific week in Vail
Our extended family of 10 spent a beautiful summer week at this property. The location and setting adjacent to Gore Creek is spectacular, and the back deck overlooking it all was definitely a favorite of ours. The two bedrooms/one bathroom on the upper level, bunk room/powder room on main floor, and three bedrooms/three bathrooms in basement accommodated comfortable sleeping arrangements for everyone. Communication with the host before and during our stay was friendly and responsive and we were able to resolve a couple minor issues through text. Extensive signage and instructions from the host posted throughout the house provided all the details needed to utilize features properly, and a comprehensive house notebook had every direction and suggestion you could possibly think of. The kitchen is broadly stocked with any possible cooking tool or appliance you may need and also had a large selection of staples such as spices, condiments, and dry goods. We were also pleasantly surprised to receive a mid-week housekeeping “tidy” service. Use of the gym and pool at the Hyatt was also a nice perk.

Perfect getaway for extended-family vacation!
The house was wonderful to stay in and fit our family of 12 perfectly. With 5 children (9 and under) they had plenty of space to sleep, explore and enjoy the snow and mountains. The Cascade lift was conveniently located to the house and easy for skiers to come and go! We enjoyed the views, cooking together in the kitchen and playing games in the multi-level dining/living area. Thank you for hosting us, we really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again!

Vail Getaway
We couldn't have been happier with our stay. Our three couples and three kids had more than enough space to spread out and relax as if we were at home. We could have easily accommodated several more people. The place was very well stocked with everything you could possibly need. We took full advantage of the kitchen, cooking a large meal every night of our stay. The house was also in a terrific location in Cascade Village. Having the “secret” #20 Cascade Chair Lift in walking distance with no lines on otherwise busy days in Lionshead and Vail Village was a huge plus! We’ll be coming back for sure. I can imagine this being an equally great place for summer stays as well.

Beautiful home overlooking the Gore River
We had plenty of space for our 15 family members. The grandchildren, ages 3 to 11 loved the bunk room and adjacent den, plus a toy room. Getting to it involved going thru a hall way half bath, but it worked out okay. We sat on the back porch everyday and enjoy the River and the wildlife. We really enjoyed watching the hummingbirds come feed every evening! The location was great, close to everything we wanted to do. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything you could think of! We cooked many meals and even had a chef come and cook for us! Al in all, we loved it and hope to come back!

This home is tremendous! Decorated like a villa in Tuscany, it is comfortable, fully equipped with everything you need to eat, sleep, and entertain, as well as beautiful! It's right next to Gore Creek with stairs to access the yard, and the sound of running water in the background. There is a bunk room behind the kitchen that was a perfect place for all the kids to sleep and hang out. The family room and toy room were perfect for the kids. They loved it, and so did the grown ups! The kitchen is beautiful and fully stocked for any meal you could want. The dining table, game table, and kitchen table accommodated seating for all 14 of us to eat and play board games. We had happy hours on the deck. We all had a great stay at this house. I would highly recommend it, especially for families with kids. There are many steps on various levels of the house. If you are disabled, this might not be a great choice for you. Otherwise, you should love it!

Incredible house, perfect location
This home is the kind of place you don’t want others to find out about.We stayed in this house with two of our children, their spouses and six young kids.Everyone was instantly thrilled when we walked in the front door. We have stayed in a number of rental homes in Vail since the early 90’s, and this is far & above all the others.There is a huge common area (kitchen, living room and dinning room) for everyone to be together, and great private space for each couple and the grandchildren.There was also a game room that provided separate space for the grandchildren to be together and play on their own.We were hesitant to stay away from Vail Village or Lionshead, where we previously have stayed, because we had only one van for 12 of us and some of us don’t ski every day.It turned out to be perfect. In the morning one of us would drive the grandchildren (5 to 7 minutes) to the Lionshead ski school, park in the short-term, free parking, and get the grandchildren off. Some would go up the mountain on Lift 8 or the Gondola. My husband and I walked a short distance from the house to the Cascade Lift and back.We never had a lift line or crowds at this lift. Also, we rented our skis at Venture, (at the Grand Hyatt and immediately next to the Cascade Lift) so we were able to valet our skis and boots (heated boots in the morning!).This made our walk to and from Cascade Lift easy.We took this lift up, skied down to Lift 26 (no lift lines there either) and took that to Eagles Nest Ridge and beyond. At the end of the day, we skied back to Cascade.The kitchen of the house is very spacious.It was well-stocked with staples we otherwise had to purchase at the store in the previous rentals we used.We also took advantage of the private chef, Barry, whom the owner suggested. We chose to have him provide dinner on two separate evenings which he brought to the house and set up for us.The food was incredible and it was a perfect choice with young kids. We experienced traveling/weather issues both on the way in and on the way out. The owner, Ruth Ann, was on the phone with us often during our travels and was a great resource. On our way out, Ruth Ann volunteered the property manager who came over to teach us how to put chains (purchased at Walmart) on our van tires She also offered to help us get alternate accommodations if we could not get out of Vail in the weather. Ruth Ann was very helpful from the beginning to the end of our trip.We loved the staying in this house.

Great location, great host, interesting house
Overall, we had a solid ski week in Vail. We are a group of 8 friends looking to ski. This house is perfectly located, a short walk away from the lift to Vail. It’s great for cooking - nice kitchen, tons of amenities. Hot tub is nice too after a day of skiing. Ruth was a great host. Very communicative over text, easy to check in and out. Mid week cleaning was also straight forward. There are two minor downsides: 1. The hot tub is located just outside the master. It is very loud, to the point where we had to turn off the breaker every night and turn it back on in the morning. With ice and snow on the porch, this isn’t fun as the breaker isn’t easy to get to. 2. One of the bedrooms (with the bunks) and the game room are accessible through a bathroom through the kitchen. They also have no windows, which is not ideal. Overall, we had a good time and enjoyed our primary activities (skiing, cooking, hanging out). We appreciated Ruth’s communication and her attempts to do something about the hot tub.

Some good points. Have more to say but VRBO limits words for review so here are the 2 big surprises
Bunk Room—probably the most surprising and disappointing part of the house. It’s described as suitable for kids or adults. We had 4 guys (early 20’s) staying in this room. The room is only accessible by passing through the half bathroom which is connected to the kitchen. It is an incredibly awkward layout. If someone is in the bathroom, you can’t access the bunk room. If you are in the bunkroom and someone is using the bathroom, you cannot get anywhere else until the bathroom is vacated. If someone is using the bathroom the people in the kitchen can hear everything. The man cave is also located back near the bunkroom and only accessible through the bathroom. This space proved helpful for storing luggage and getting dressed for the folks staying in that bunkroom but, because it is necessary to use for that purpose it is not an additional living area like described. The only way that I would consider this bunk room an extra place to sleep people is if the people are small children who would typically be using their parents’ bathrooms. Our bunk room guests had to shower in other guests’ rooms and often found themselves trapped in the bunk room because someone was in the bathroom or locked out of their bunkroom b/c the bathroom was occupied. The description should be much more clear Access to ski trails is not convenient. We struggled to find the way out and when we tried to ski the route it was a lot of walking and poling to get to the lift. Unfortunately Vail had not opened the Cascade Way run from the top of mountain down to the lift so we were forced to ride the lift down each day from the top. This is a very slow and antiquated lift and at the end of the day there was always a long line to get on the lift. It was easily 30-45 minutes between waiting in line and then the long ride down. Whether the Cascade way run is open or not, be aware that it is not an easy out and may not be suitable for all levels. Also the walk in from the lift isn’t easy either. We tried skiing/ walking with boots, skis and poles from the lift but it proved very challenging. The alternative was to ski into Lionshead and take the shuttle, but with skis, boots, and poles, the slow lift down was actually a simpler, possibly faster, solution. Again, if our group had been able to store our skis that we own at the Hyatt this would have been better but that is not possible. Ruth Ann was very helpful in suggesting some alternate solutions due to the closure of the ski run.

Delightful slice of Vail
Perfect place for our family ski trip. We had 8, and there was plenty of room to be together, or to escape for some quiet time with my husband. Beds were marvelous, kitchen so well appointed I could not ask for a thing. The owner was very responsive and offered helpful suggestions. We will certainly go again!
