No matter the season, this quiet, secluded location with trees, mountain views, and the sound of Gore Creek, located only 20 feet off the back deck, will fit the bill for your next vacation. You can ski any of eleven Colorado resorts (Vail, Beaver Creek, Copper, Breckenridge, Keystone, A-Basin, Steamboat Springs, Aspen's three mountains, and Ski Cooper) and still drive home for the night to a cozy fire and comfortable king-size beds.

The Ptarmigan complex has 38 townhomes, many of which are lived in by permanent residents. The covered bus stop for the free Town of Vail Shuttle is only a two-minute level walk from the front door. A three-minute ride gets you to the Cascade ski lift; ride a little longer and get off at Lionshead or the Vail Transportation Center and Vail Village itself, offering numerous quality restaurants, night spots, and incomparable shopping.

However if you to stay in, you will also be content. This townhouse boasts a kitchen with granite counter tops, rustic cherry cabinetry, and new appliances. It is furnished down to the wine glasses! The glass-topped dining room table seats six, but there is also a second table in the sunken den which seats four. Turn the gas fireplace on to take the chill off of an early morning or to quickly warm up the home and mood after a day of outside activity. The spacious upstairs front bedroom and creek-side bedroom boast comfortable king-size beds and flat-screen TVs and the middle sleeping area has a queen-size bed with TV/VCR/DVD player. The unit has a ladder to the loft above the stairs. It has a queen mattress and desk lamp. Finally, the den couch is a sleeper sofa which adds to your sleeping options.

The Ptarmigan complex's location within Vail is something mentioned by many guests. Vail's primary necessities shopping area is less than a half mile away; a two-minute drive, five-minute bicycle or 10-minute walk from the unit. It includes two large grocery stores (Safeway and City Market), liquor stores, dry cleaner, fast food and much more. The unit is a three-minute walk from the Gore Valley Recreation Trail, a fun path where walkers, runners, and bikers can enjoy a jaunt into Vail along beautiful Gore Creek or perhaps a ride all the way to Avon or Breckenridge. The summer outdoor pool and year-round enclosed hot tub are a one minute level walk across the parking lot from the front door.

Rates are lower for this unit due to owner management. Owner management is visible throughout the unit in a friendly, cozy environment, rather than a sterile cut-out cookie. Art work, mirrors, and bathrooms with intricate tile work all point to ownership who also enjoy their visits here!

    This is likely the best/nicest unit I have ever stayed at. We were a party of 6 ladies and this absolutely lovely home had everything we needed. In addition to the King beds in both of 2 big BR, there were 2 other beds tastefully tucked into the upstairs hallway and loft such that all 6 of us had beds and no one slept on the couch. The furnishings were also lovely and keen little touches were everywhere from an extra table and chairs under the stairs, to a readout of external temps and weather info, to a fully stocked kitchen. Easy to use and cozy gas fireplace, washer dryer, ski racks, racks for helmets, great hot water in the showers. The hot tub is a short walk away, indoors, and positively lovely and well-maintained. The owners were communicative and helpful. The bus to the slopes is also a short walk away and the trip back and forth to the mountain wasn't bad at all. The reduced price of this place due to the fact that you need a bus to the mountain made it quite the bargain given how perfect the unit was. We plan to return.

    End of summer stay. Mid-week. Very quiet. Our goal was met with the river outside the back door, a very busy little gray squirrel darting about, and a fireplace to keep it cozy on the inside. Very nice location for a quick Fall get-a-way.

    James was so easy to communicate with. The location was perfect for the cascade lift. First stop on red line and no wait at the lift. Second stop on the green line back. Kitchen had everything we needed. The room set up was so fun for the kids. Would love to stay here again.

    We loved being right on the creek. The kids enjoyed the loft bed upstairs. Kitchen was fully equipped to cook meals. House was well stocked with laundry detergent, paper towels, toilet paper, soap shampoo, hair dryer and much more. We will definitely stay here again.

    Well kept and comfortable condo with Gore Creek in the back yard. The creek was rotating from snow melt and rain, and saw several kayakers and rafters go by. Enjoyed the hot tub after each of two 14er climbs. Highly recommend.
