I can’t say enough good things about the Bavarian Chalet! The place was spotless, had everything you could possibly need, and was so comfortable and cozy. But the true separating factors that make this place spectacular are Elfi and Jon! Elfi was in contact with me via text well before our planned trip date explaining some details about the chalet and sending a warm welcome. On the day of our arrival, Elfi was in close contact with me and they both greeted us when we arrived and gave us a tour of the chalet. It’s so rare nowadays to even speak with the owner (usually run by some sort of property management company), but to be greeted by them and given a grand tour was so sweet! The chalet had everything we could have possibly needed for our ski trip, including boot dryers, every cooking tool we needed, a crock pot, super clean bedrooms, bathrooms, and linens, a hot tub, stocked wood for the wood-burning stove, and even a morning paper delivery via Mishka, their loving, floofy pupper! The property is amazing as is, but the hospitality and kindness that Elfi and Jon bring to the table is unmatched. From the morning greetings while we loaded up our car to all the tips, recommendations, and local knowledge, it was so nice having them around when we needed them. I would HIGHLY recommend this property to anyone and will definitely be seeking it out every time we visit the Vail area. We were all so happy we found the place and extremely pleased with our stay!
