Why the Owner Chose Other Vail Properties
We love the town of Edwards. There is so much to offer,world class skiing, golfing and world class shopping and dining! What more could one ask for? The Eagle River allows for kayaking and white water rafting and fly fishing, not to mention the sound of the river that lulls you to sleep in the spring and summertime.
The Unique Benefits at this House
We love the river of course and we also love the layout of our home. We have 2 separate living areas on 2 different levels. This is ideal for large groups with teenagers that want to play pool or ping pong on the lower level while the adults can entertain on the main level. All our bedrooms have their own baths along with 2 extra half baths! This is key in maintaining some privacy amongst large family/friends gatherings.
Located across the street from Arrowhead ski area, 5 minutes to Beaver Creek and 15 minutes to Vail!
Owner's Map of Other Vail Properties
Our family loves to spend time in the Vail Valley every season of the year. Initially the winter skiing was the huge draw. Now we have learned to love all 4 seasons. Summertime fly fishing and biking are family favorites along with shopping and dining out. Art festivals and farmers markets scatter the valley all year long. We have traveled throughout the US and always love returning to Colorado. My husband grew up in southern Minnesota and I grew up in northern Ohio in a small town called Vermilion, right on Lake Erie. Our midwestern roots make us all the more appreciative of the moderate Colorado weather.

The house was great! It was one of the most comfortable houses we have stayed and have been doing this group for years. We had kids from a college junior to two kindergartners so the mix and spread of living areas was very advantageous for us. We had the master room and the weather was so nice we were even able to enjoy the river. The little ones like your path and after skiing wanted to go down and skip rocks.

I just wanted to send you a note and let you know how much we enjoyed your house last week in Edwards! It was the perfect setting for us and none of us wanted to leave! We cooked nearly every evening at the house - and also tried out some local area restaurants. White water rafting, hiking in the mountains and Glenwood Springs Pool were all wonderful - and your location was perfect to get to all of them. Thank you for sharing your house with us! It was more stocked than we had anticipated and we had extras of things - which was great! The bikes, too, were fun for everyone. Again, thank you SO much for opening your house up to us and for the great directions and suggestions you sent in advance. I know if we ever get back that way again, we would definitely head your way first!

Hi Kathy, Just wanted to let you know that Mike and I and our family had a WONDERFUL time June 11 - 16 in your lovely and spacious home. The accommodations couldn't have been better for the three adult couples, four grandchildren (ages are 9, 12, 12, and 14), and an almost-two-year-old grandson. Thank you for the use of the porta crib for the little one. The older grandchildren loved sleeping in the bunk room. We all enjoyed sleeping with the sound of the river. Your kitchen was well equipped for the breakfasts, lunches, and two dinners we prepared. All of us and our daughter and her husband, who were staying in a different house, fit comfortably around the dining table. One night we celebrated two birthdays there. Thank you very much for greeting us with a bottle of wine on the kitchen counter! Such a wonderful welcome! We hope to be able to rent your house again in the future. Janet Elling
