About this property

Private Hot tub/Fire Table on Large Deck overlooking Eagle River! Fly-fishing!

River Ranch is a single family home with nearly 4500 square feet of beautiful living nestled next to the Eagle River! Located in the 'Ultimate Mountain Playground' of the Vail Valley!
Imagine fly fishing right out your back door! Enjoy the view from the hot tub on the large back deck along with the new gas fire-table to enjoy the brisk mountain evenings. The river landing is the best to end your long summer/winter days. Beaver Creek is five minutes, Vail 15 minutes, and Arrowhead 3 minutes. You will need a car.

You will want to sleep with the windows open at night to hear the river in the summertime. Summer visitors will find yourselves at the heart of biking trails and close to Beaver Creek and Vail's many summertime festivals and events. The lovely town of Edwards is 5 minutes away and has many restaurants and upscale shopping. Our smoke-free home was built in 2000 and includes two gas fireplaces, carpet in all the bedrooms and lower level. Hard wood floors line the entire main level. 4 King bedrooms (1 w/additional double/twin bunks) are upstairs and 1 King bedroom in lower level. All bedrooms have ensuite baths. The main level is for living and enjoying the river views! Perfect set up for family reunions! Parking available for up to 4 vehicles. (No RV's or trailers.) There is an additional partial kitchen on the lower level with sink, cabinets and kitchen table. The pool/ping-pong table and hot tub will entertain everyone after a tough day on the slopes, bike path or river! 8 bikes are included in the summertime for our guests use. No need to rent bikes! Some helmets are also supplied. Perfect setting for family reunions, scrapbooking parties, and ski get-aways! The Avon rec center is nearby which includes an indoor pool and workout facility!

We had a great stay at Kathy’s home. The layout is very comfortable and worked well for our group, and the waterfront setting is beautiful and peaceful. The cul-de-sac location made it especially quiet and relaxing.The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed, the dining table was a great size for meals together, and the hot tub was excellent after a day out. The closets were nice and roomy, and the robes in the closets were a thoughtful touch.A few of the sheets show some wear and may be ready for a refresh soon, but overall the home was comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. We would be happy to return in the future.

Wonderful Stay!

My husband and I plus 4 other couples stayed in February and had a wonderful time! The house was comfortable and provided everyone a chance to relax away from home. Since we were a party of 10, it was nice to have a kitchen that worked well for meal preparation and a dining room that sat all of us. We hope to return again!
