Cozy Home w/ Loft, Heated Pool & Hot Tub - Near Slopes, Bus Route

The property was very nice and clean and a great location near the market and bus stops. A few things though to consider before you book. There are about 50-60 steps and a long pathway to get from the parking lot to the unit so hauling our stuff up was absolutely exhausting. It was advertised as having stairs but just know it is a significant challenge for anyone who can’t handle a lot of stairs. Also it is advertised as 3 bedrooms but it is actually two bedrooms and a loft with two beds that is not separated off with a wall, so open to the living area. Whoever is in that room will hear the noise from the rest of the condo. The beds were not very comfortable and the pillows on the beds were not good, cheap and very little stuffing, so none of us slept very well. Also it advertised there is a community hot tub and pool. The pool was full of green dirty water and the hot tub was barely luke warm like bath water. It was unusable as it was not warm and attached to the pool with filthy water. I was disappointed in this because I chose this condo over others because it said it had a useful community hot tub. The kitchen was stocked appropriately with pots, pans, etc so we cooked there but the kitchen layout is awkward and only one person can be working in the kitchen at a time. Otherwise the place was very clean and it was an ok place to stay for our family trip. I don’t think I’d stay there again because of the reasons listed above.

We just got home from a great Vail ski vacation. First the pros. This condo was clean and well maintained. The photos provide an accurate representation. The kitchen was well-equipped with more supplies than most vacation homes. The family room / dining room was large enough for the 6 of us to eat comfortably, watch TV, and play board games at night (we used our own but many were also available on-site). The bathrooms were clean and nicely finished. Some other nice features which we didn't use were a wood-burning fireplace as well as a multi-device charging station. We had two disappointments. First, the listing advertises the unit as just steps away from the bus stop. This is a bit deceiving, as it is actually .2 miles away (per Google maps). For some that might not be far, but I felt it necessary to clarify this. Making the walk each day, in ski boots carrying our gear, on a road that for us at least was icy (especially the hill leading out of the complex), just wasn't what we were expecting. Second, most vacation homes these days have a welcome kit, with guidance on the area. This unit did not. We had no idea how the transportation system worked, where the bus stop was, where the hot tub was, where to take the trash, etc. Some simple info here is needed. FYI - to get to Vail, use either the Pitkin Creek or Lupine stops, and take the East Vail bus to the Vail Transportation center (~15 minute ride). With better info we could have given 5 stars.

We enjoyed this comfortable top floor condo. Great views of the area from the balcony and windows. Very nice furnishings, wood burning fireplace and firewood provided. Well stocked kitchen. We used the free Town of Vail bus to get to and from Vail Village, the bus came every 15 minutes which was very convenient. Great value to stay close to Vail. Would stay here again!

We like top floor condos so we don't have to hear anyone above us :-). This top floor condo is very spacious, great amount of room in the living room and dining area, nice breakfast bar counter with stools on the kitchen. Bedrooms are decent sized, plus an open Loft area was great for kids (adults could stay up there too). We were able to walk to the free Town of Bus stop to get to and from town, there's a market on site that is convenient. Nice wood fireplace, wood was provided, WiFi worked great. Would stay here again!

Great location, really nice clean house. We would stay again!
