Comfy Home with Private Hot Tub and Mountain Views - Short Drive to the Slopes

Wild mountain adventures await you and up to nine other family or friends when you stay in this vintage East Vail vacation rental in the beautiful coniferous forests of the Vail, Colorado region.

Hidden behind a stand of blue spruce, you'll still get a fabulous view from the deck of Vail Valley, and a clear sky when you soak in the home's private hot tub. Inside is vintage ski lodge decor, plenty of natural light, and leather furniture ready to engulf you after a busy day of skiing/riding! Get the wood fireplace going and settle in for a game show marathon, or bring your HDMI chord to hook up your Netflix via WiFi to the flatscreen. Admire antique snowshoes, vintage ski posters, and old photographs hanging on the wall, and that plaid armchair will become your favorite reading spot, guaranteed.

Cook in an 80s style kitchen, full of all the gadgets you could possibly need to make your favorite home cooked meals: a blender for protein shakes in the morning, and espresso maker, a mixer for cookie dough, and a slow-cooker for a roast or a chili that will leave the house smelling divine! There's even a gas grill outside for barbecues on sunny afternoons. Eat at the dining table, ranch house style with benches and a checkered table cloth, and put the dishes away in the dishwasher when bedtime arrives.

When guests want to wind down and relax together, they can head to the den area with two more leather sofas, a table perfect for card games, a TV with a DVD/VHS player, and a mini wet bar for setting up snacks away from the action of Blackjack or Settlers of Catan. There's a poker table supplied for tournament nights as well. There is a sofabed here, with a teddy bear ready to snuggle! Can't stand to put on the same sweaty ski socks again? Toss your activewear in the washer/dryer to keep your packing light and your clothes fresh.

As night falls, retire to comfortable bedrooms decorated in varying shades of blue: the main bedroom suite, set against a gorgeous blue wall, can also be converted into an office space for those who need a moment to compose a work email or write in their journal. The guest room is spacious with plenty of closet space. Adventure awaits you in this Vail Valley vacation rental.
