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.

We stayed at this property January 19-22, 2012 and had a great time. It is as advertised and looks as good in person as the pictures present. Kathy was responsive and very helpful during the rental process. The home is right on the Eagle River and just a short drive to Vail or Beaver Creek as well as the town of Edwards.

We came out to Vail to attend a family wedding. We rented this house to share with our son and his family and our daughter and her family. There were 6 adults and 4 small children. We couldn't have been more pleased when we walked in and saw what this house has to offer. It was so much better than we could have imagined. It was so nice to have so many separate areas to either be together in or be apart from each other. We loved the mountain bikes and the great trails. My grandsons love the skate park that they rode the bikes to. We cooked dinner one night for all of my sisters and their familes who had also traveled to Vail for the wedding. They could not believe how beautiful this house was. We loved the seating area down by the river. It was so peaceful. This house was just so much better than having everyone in separate hotel rooms. We could put the kids to bed at night and then have fun watching TV or playing pool or ping pong. I highly recommend this house to anyone who wants the best of everything. Thank you, Kathy, for all your helpful tips and instructions.

What a beautiful home! We came for a ski trip with 11 of us and the home was a retreat in itself. After skiing there was so much room to spread out in the house or be all together in one area. The kids loved the basement! We will definately be back next year. Thank you!

Hi Kathy, we wanted to let you know how much our whole group enjoyed our long Labor Day Weekend at your lovely home! Our group consisted of four couples so the four king bedrooms with bath en suite were much appreciated. All of the gathering spots in the house were more than adequate to accomodate all of us comfortably but there was still plenty of romm to get away if you wanted to. And what a convenient location to be able to walk into Edwards; which several of us did more than once - especially when the sidewalk sales started! Thanks again!!

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

We stayed at this house over spring break this year. We had three families with kids ranging from age 5 to 21. The layout of the house was great. The older kids took over the basement and the younger made one of the large walk-in closets their playroom. The location is very convienent both to Beaver and Vail. It is close to grocery in Avon and Edwards. Can't wait till next year!

We stayed in this house over the Memorial Day weekend 2008. The house was great, well decorated, gorgeous view off the deck, big and spacious. The kitchen was spectacular, stocked with all your cooking essentials. The owner was very professional and very accomodating, we will definitely be back!!

A great place for a large group. Nicely decorated and well equipped. After a full day of skiing we really were able to relax at the house. Large rooms, plenty of bathrooms and ample closet space. We will rent it again in a heartbeat.
