Perfect Vail Visit

This house is ideal for family / friends staying in Vail. The location is ideal. A friendly shuttle driver picked up / dropped us off everyday. The home is beautifully appointed. Views are spectacular. Host is kind and easy to contact. Wood burning fireplace and Jacuzzi are perfect.

Wonderful week

We stayed at this property before and are glad we came back. We had a few minor issues and the property owner was very responsive to our needs. The house is in a great location, it was very quiet, the kitchen was adequately stocked for cooking our meals at the Château, and we had plenty of room to move around and enjoy our time together. Thanks for sharing your home and providing us a good experience.

Extremely hot in summer, unresponsive owner and inaccurate items in listing

This property is conveniently located near Vail Village and does have lovely views and a nice hot tub. However, I would not recommend staying in the summer as it has no air conditioning and no shades on the wall of windows and it reached over 86 degrees inside the house each day and didn’t cool off until the middle of the night. It was so unbearable at times we considered leaving. The owner does not respond to calls and is very slow to reply to texts (or doesn’t reply at all) and the property manager isn’t responsive either (she said she was out of town and the office was very busy). The water was cut off to the house because of a leak in the irrigation system and it took a very long time to reach someone. There are mice in the kitchen that we alerted the property manager about and she never responded. The listing incorrectly indicates that you have pool access at the Hyatt but does not mention that you have to say you are staying at a neighboring property to access (which we chose not to do). Although the listing indicates check out time is noon, we were told we needed to be out by 10:00 am for the next guests to arrive (the listing also states there is a minimum one day vacancy between guests for cleaning).

The property was great. The only description that was omitted or not explained was that there is a different residence attached to the bigger one. The picture lead you to believe the entire property is included. Fortunately no one was staying there during our stay.

Wow - the Chateau was exquisite!

My family gathering in Vail, renting several homes - this one was our main meeting place and it was absolutely perfect! Gorgeous inside, gorgeous views, immaculate and had everything we needed. The yard is large and was perfect for our larger gatherings and for when the kids were with us (ages from 5 - 35!) outdoor games etc. Larry was easy to work with and we would definitely rent this space again! The only slight issue was that with the beautiful large windows the upstairs did get warm in the hot weather Vail had during our stay. It did cool down at night with the open windows and fans. Downstairs stayed perfect temperature! (Just FYI for those who are concerned.) We HIGHLY recommend this home and look forward to returning.

Beautiful Views, Awesome Location

We stayed June 2021. This property was perfect for our family of 8. Everyone had a comfortable bed. Being able to open so many windows and, especially, the skylights, gave us a great summer breeze in the home. The views of the valley and mountains are wonderful. The owners have labeled everything you might need to use so that it’s easy to figure everything out. We used the hot tub every night. Finally, the location is fantastic. We enjoyed being in a quiet neighborhood (with MANY aspen trees) out of the crowds in Vail, yet only a 5 minute walk and 5 minute bus, 15 minute bike ride, or 35 minute walk to the village.

Excellent location for family vacation

The location is wonderful. We stayed in the summer and were only a short walk or bike ride to Donovan Park (great for families) or the Gore Valley Trail. Close walk to Grand Hyatt where we rented bikes. Grocery store is close by as well. We enjoyed the beautiful views and spacious yard, where the kids could play. We had 2 families and there was plenty of room for everyone. Larry was very easy to get ahold of and very responsive. Would definitely recommend as a great place for a family vacation in the valley.

Wonderful home for family ski trip to Vail

My kids, kids in law, and grandkids stayed in this home and we had a wonderful stay for a week in winter after Christmas. The listing accurately depicted the home and the owner was very prompt and helpful. The 12 of us (7 adults and 5 children) were very comfortable. The kitchen was outfitted with everything we needed as we ate most meals at the home since we had small children. The home is very comfortable and well furnished. As advertised the Cascade lift is only an 8-10 min walk and the free Vail bus service located there as well. The location is great for experienced skiers renting at Ventures sports located in the Grand Hyatt. It is a little hike if you own your own skis/board and carry them down and up each day, as we were unable to use the valet for our own equipment since we were not guests at the hotel. (On one occasion an overly aggressive employee told us that were were not even supposed to rent since we were not staying at the hotel.) I would highly recommend this home for winter get a ways.

Great house and Great Location for Skiers

This house was great over Xmas break for our family of 9, although easily fits 12. It had everything we needed in the kitchen and bathrooms. Beautiful home in Cascade village with an amazing view of the mountains. Although it was high season, we did not feel it at all since we skied out of the cascade chair lift at the Grand Hyatt which is totally private and only used by hotel guests and nearby neighbors. The Grand Hyatt is a 6-7 minute walk down hill (up hill at the end of the day). We rented our equipment at the Grand Hyatt Venture Sports (the staff new Larry and were very nice to all of us). Renting at Venture sports allowed us to ski in and out of the Grand Hyatt and use their ski valet! We changed into our ski boots at the Grand Hyatt, got our skis from the ski valet and at the end of the day, we left our boots and ski with the ski valet, and walked home in our snow boots. The Cascade lift should only be used by people who can ski, as it is fast and takes you to a part of the mountain where you have to ski to another lift in order to keep going up. There are no beginner bunny slopes. If you are a beginner and you plan on taking lessons, or have kids who have to go to ski school, you will have to either drive to Lionshead, take an Uber to Lionshead, Walk to Grand Hyatt and from there take the free shuttle to Lionshead, since the schools and instructors meet at Lionshead. We are all good skiers so for us Cascade Lift was amazing and not crowded. One guest had to take their kid to Lionshead everyday, which adds about 20-30mins to the morning routine. Our private instructor met us intermediate skiers at the Grand Hyatt Cascade Lift so this was perfect for us and recommended if you want an instructor and do not want to schlep to Lionshead in the morning. Truly a nice home in a great location. Would definitely rent again. Thank you Larry! PS Go Aztecs!

Great house but outdoor area needs improvement

This was a great house with great communication with property manager and owner. They went out of their way to make sure we had a good stay and had everything we needed. The inside of the house is well laid out. The downstairs area with three bedrooms is great for families with children. One of the features we particularly liked were the operable skylights. However, there are a couple of things that I wished I knew before booking. First, the description on VRBO says the house has A/C but it does not. I understand most mountain homes do not have A/C...however, we specifically picked this house bc it said AC on the description and were disappointed it did not. Also, the outdoor area could use some work. There was a metal table and chairs with no cushions to sit upstairs. Downstairs had limited seating that was dirty and had debris and pool chemicals piled up. We were looking forward to sitting outside to enjoy the Colorado weather and it just wasn’t conducive to doing it. I don’t think it would take much to make the outside area great! If the air conditioning description is removed from VRBO and the outside was to be improved it would definitely get 5 stars.

Best Chalet in Vail

What a wonderful house! We visited with my husband, parents, and niece and nephew. Everyone had a room and a bathroom. Bedrooms are comfortable, cozy, with great decor complete with at-home amenities. Bathrooms are beautiful with high end finishes. Kitchen is complete with everything you need to make a variety of dishes during your stay. Grocery store is a 5 minute drive away. The view is just spectacular and the location hard to beat - walk to bus transit and chair lift close by. Thank you so much Larry! We will be coming back!

Wonderful location and beautiful home

We had a great time at Larry's house. The bedrooms were all very generous in size , were decorated beautifully and had very comfortable beds. The home is about a .5 mile drive to the the Cascade lift which is very easy to access and has a public parking lot ($25/day) about 200 yards from the Cascade chair lift. Larry was very easy to work with and was responsive to any questions that I had. I would definitely stay here again
