Overall this property was absolutely perfect for our 3 day ski trip. We would stay here again without hesitation. Some items to note:
Pros:
Cleanliness - The room was immaculate and everything was is great working condition. The bathroom showers were insanely clean and the room was like new.
Room Location - The room was located in a perfect spot. It's on the 3rd floor, but this floor is actually the same level as the entry, front desk, restaurant and exit to the lifts. In other words, you don't have to go up and down stairs with your bags, skis, etc. The room is also far enough away from any common areas and we never heard a sound from doors closing, people talking, etc.
Building Location - I always stay in ski-in/ski-out places, but this sets the bar for what a ski-in/ski-out place should be. From the room to the chair-lift took only 2 mins walk. Again, when geared up and walking to the lift, it was awesome to just leave the room, head down the hall and jump on the lift. The lodge is also very close to shops, restaurants and a little grocery store.
Parking - When we were there, we didn't have any issue with parking. In fact, we parked right outside the entrance. Best of all, parking is free.
Main Bed - Super comfortable.
Ski Rentals - We rented our skis at Charter, which is on the 2nd floor of the lodge. It doesn't get an easier than this. It was really nice to just head down a flight of stairs to get the skis and swap them out if need be. Additionally, the guys that run that location are insanely friendly and helpful.
Amenities - I was surprised that the lodge had everything you'd expect from a hotel. Fresh cookies and coffee/tea. Concierge. A staffed front desk. Housekeeping if you need to freshen up the room, etc. The lodge also has complimentary shuttle service to Vail Village, if you'd like to head over there. This was much easier and more personal than taking the Vail bus. Oh, and the Mexican restaurant that is steps from the room is delicious!
Cons:
Pull-out Sofa Bed: Saying the mattress is awful would be an understatement. The floor would be a better option. I highly recommend the owners to replace it if they are serious about this being a sleeping option. Even my son, who sleeps on anything, wouldn't even touch it.
