Welcome to Highcliffe Lodge — a one-of-a-kind luxury retreat in Vail where the rugged spirit of Yellowstone meets the timeless elegance of a Ralph Lauren mountain lodge. Nestled on a private acre with sweeping Gore Range views and just five minutes from Vail Village (with your own Solaris garage parking space), this handcrafted log estate offers an unforgettable blend of high-end comfort, natural beauty, and family-friendly warmth.

The Experience
Highcliffe is more than a place to stay—it’s where mountain magic happens. Unwind in the Western mine-shaft-inspired private cinema (with 8K projection and Dolby Atmos sound), gather around the oversized moss rock firepit, or soak in the hot tub beneath the stars. Enjoy sunrise yoga on the balconies, sip wine at sunset from the dramatic stone belvederes, or retreat inside for board games, a movie night, or fireside storytelling. The home is ideal for multi-generational family gatherings, milestone celebrations, or serene couple getaways.

The Home
Thoughtfully designed to sleep 12 adults in true comfort, Highcliffe offers five bedrooms, each uniquely themed with Old Hickory furnishings, luxury Shifman mattresses, SONY 4K TVs, large windows with mountain views, and ample storage. The layout supports privacy and connection, with three main bedrooms featuring king or queen beds and lofted spaces, and two additional rooms ideal for singles and teens. Bathrooms include Molton Brown of London toiletries, plush towels, steam shower, and high-end hairdryers.

Arrive to Luxury
From the moment you step inside, you’re fully cared for. Linens are professionally laundered and pressed. The chef’s kitchen is fully equipped for memorable meals—or elevate your experience with an on-demand private chef. A wet bar and spacious dining areas make hosting effortless.

The Grounds
Explore your private acre of curated perennial gardens, natural stone patios, a summer waterfall, mature aspens, ancient boulders, and a meandering masonry path up Highcliffe Mountain to three breathtaking stone terraces that overlook the Vail Valley and National Forest.

For Winter Guests
Enjoy VIP ski service with slope-side gear storage near Gondola One, and in-home ski boot and clothing warmers. Highcliffe is fully equipped to handle your ski lifestyle with ease.

    We had the most fantastic stay! With little snow, it was so incredible to have this house with all the amenities, space, hot tub, game “garage” and most importantly, the movie room for March Madness. Adam was so attentive to all our questions, and so gracious. We absolutely loved our stay, and that is saying a lot being in Vail with very little snow. Easy drive to Vail village and the bus stop was extremely navigable. Highly recommend!!! Stunning property…

    Excellent lodge for my group of 6 on an annual guys trip. This place is perfect for 6 guys or 6 couples. Immaculate home, high-end finishes, extremely clean, great hot tub and firepit for apres, pool table and gameroom, theatre. Quick walk to Vail bus route in the morning, or use the Solaris parking pass. Easy access and great host communication. Hope to rent this place again!

    The outdoor fire pit and hot tub was a big bonus after coming off the slopes.

    Our family had the best time at Highcliffe Lodge. We visited for three weeks (end of July - mid August). Weather stupendous. Chilly mornings and warm afternoons. The house had everything we could ever want in a vacation rental. Exquisitely designed and decorated. Incredibly well-stocked chef’s kitchen (we cooked most nights of the week and never had to purchase anything for the kitchen). Fabulous beds, linens, towels, pillows for every bedroom. Wonderful home layout with much space for our family to spread out over three levels. Gorgeous front porch and back patio. We ate dinner outside every night. Divine location in a beautiful neighborhood, perfectly located on the fabulous Gore Creek Trail. An exercisers paradise. We rented bikes in town for the duration of our stay and it was a dream to be able to bike into town each day to shop, grab coffee, hit the farmer’s market, etc. Adam is incredible. We had no issues while we were there but he checked in with us once a week to make sure everything was okay and to offer suggestions for activities/dining. The house was also in pristine, clean condition when we arrived. Wow from all of the Bellis family!! We will look forward to returning!!

    Adam was such a great host! This home is absolutely beautiful and worth the stay! Roomy, cozy, and such a relaxing vibe! We loved every bit of this property and will likely rebook if we return to Vail.

    The house was a perfect compliment to our vacation. It is a beautiful upscale mountain home that really sets the tone for a luxury ski vacation. The location is very close to Vail village and also the perfect location to allow us to ski Vail, Beaver Creek and Breckenridge due to the close proximity to all three mountains. Adam the owner was extremely hospitable and available if we needed anything. The house has all the luxury accommodations including a movie theater, garage game room, large hot tub, chefs kitchen and more. We loved the mattress so much in the main floor master bedroom that we ordered one for our home. Can’t recommend this property enough. We will most definitely be back.

    My husband, our three young kids and our best friends and their three young kids had the trip of a lifetime while staying in this epic log cabin! The home is meticulously and perfectly designed in every single room. Plenty of room for multiple families to be together or space out if needed. Whether you want to cozy up by the fire and stare out the window at the snow, or gather in the kitchen to cook a meal together, watch a movie in the one of a kind movie theater, play pool or ping pong in the heated garage, or freshen up in one of the many great bathrooms this home has you covered. Adam is the absolute best host we’ve ever worked with and keeps the home in perfect shape for every single guest. We all can’t wait to return and stay in this home again Next year.

    The house and location were everything I could have wished for and more! The home was beautiful and had everything we needed to make our family holiday a special one! The location couldn't have been better as well. I really can't say enough about this special home. Can not wait to come back! Thank you, Adam!Angie Bird & family

    Highcliffe Lodge is a very beautifully decorated, handsome, charming, cozy and well built home full of personal details that address your every need. With lots of fun rooms for entertainment including a theatre and games, you won’t want to leave home except for skiing and shopping in Vail which is very close by. We had a two foot snow storm sweep through on our visit and the trip became magical. We had seven people in our group and fit very comfortably. You will feel very grateful for your stay and sorry to be saying goodbye as you pull away at the end of your stay.
