The Best Location!!! - Ski-in Ski-Out Cedars Townhouse

I have never stayed in a vacation rental so well stocked. Plenty of towels, paper products and the kitchen has everything you need. Seriously... no running to the store because there are no coffee filters or salt.

If you are skiing / snowboarding there is no better location. Peak 9 base village is very convenient (downhill) for lessons and access to the Quicksilver lift. Our kids all took snowboard lessons there and the quality of instruction was great. At the end of the day you can snowboard right back to the condo. I really recommend staying near Peak 9 village. There are lots of places to stay near the ski school/lifts and it is SO close to downtown!

Having the big garage is a bonus! Plenty of room for your rental car and staging an entire family's boots and boards. The fireplace in the living room is perfect for drying gloves, jackets, etc.

You can rent gear from the Doubletree right across the street (there is a discount with the rental). We chose to rent from Alpine Sports Rental (inside the Valdoro lodge, short walk). We got a great online discount. They also stayed open until 8pm so we were able to pick up all our equipment the night we got to Breck.

My family was very comfortable in this condo. It is very big! Beware there are lots of stairs inside so it may not be suited for everyone! In summary here are the major advantages of this rental:

1. LOCATION to lift and ski school

2. VERY WELL stocked

3. Garage!!!!! Even if you don't have a car you will appreciate the space.

4. Fireplace

5. Washer/Dryer (we used it every day!)

Only drawbacks I can think of is there is a short walk to get to the hot tubs and the stairs inside the condo.

Enjoy your stay at the Cedars!

Our Family loved staying here. We had three different level of skiers and this unit is close to two lifts, one for greens and one to blue runs. We skied back to lunch almost everyday it was so close. The kitchen is well equipped and when I was cooking, I always found what I needed. Most likely, because the owner's spend a lot of time here. This unit has been updated and we had everything we needed all week. We loved keeping our ski equipment in the garage, so we did not have to hike a long distance to ski lockers. Another wonderful thing is that they have a code to the garage door, so we did not need 6 sets of keys. The owner, Mike, was the most responsive person I have ever rented from. During the week, we did not have any issues at all, but my son lost his wallet on the mountain and I left my ski wallet in the unit the last day. When I called Mike, he immediately, called his cleaning crew, by the time I landed in Atlanta, they found it and are sending it back to me.

Also, a few days ago, a Breckenridge ski instructor found my son's wallet and they are mailing it back to us. I truly thought, I would never see either of the wallets again.

Our family has only had about five ski trips but we will be back to Breckenridge and #42 Cedars. We loved how close we were to two lifts and a easy walk to Main Street shops and restaurants. We all love how many runs Breckenridge has to offer for the green runs to the difficult ones. We loved the little mountain town, with all the unique shops and all the wonderful restaurants. The Food was amazing, but either make reservations before you come or eat early.

Their den was big enough for us all to watch movies all together but each bedroom had a TV, so if you needed some alone time, you could just stay in your bedroom and watch it. Also, their internet was fast which is really important to my family.

Happy Skiing!

This is our second time staying at Cedars and you cannot beat the location. It is true ski in ski out. We had a great experience. The condo was very well maintained, clean, and fully stocked with all necessities. I recommend it for anyone looking for a comfortable stay at Breck!

Mike and Beth were easy to contact and to deal with. The condo was right at the corner of the complex next the road and across from the Doubletree Hotel. Unfortunately that meant a lot of traffic noise, including the shuttle buses and trucks that run up and down the hill; earplugs helped with sleep. We rented another unit in the complex last year, and it had more updated kitchen and an extra shower in the spare bathroom; which this one lacked. This one was cozy and spacious enough, with easy access to the lifts. Another improvement that would be great, are softer mattresses. The one in the master bed was acceptable. But the ones in the second and third bedrooms are quite hard, which made it difficult for some of us to get a good nights sleep. We also appreciated the maintenance / groundskeeper (?) who shoveled the snow off the lower balconies so we could enjoy the outdoor space during our stay. We had an issue with the CO detector going off, but a quick call to the owners solved that problem.

The location is perfect, a great place to stay. We had a lot of room.
