We like to cook and really appreciated how well the kitchen was stocked with tools. We also love the Creek, and it was right there in the backyard, burbling around the clock.

Yes, the Ptarmigan Townhomes are a great out-of-village location with easy and free bus shuttle service to the slopes, the village and shopping. Our creek side location just adds to the beauty of Vail!

This was a great property for our little ski trip to Vail. The condo was well appointed with all the little extras that make a stay even more comfortable - tons of towels, blankets, kitchen items, etc.We come to Vail often so staying next to a bus stop is a must and this property is a 2 minute walk to the stop.Added bonus - the living room overlooks the creek and we spent countless time watching the water roll past the snow - so beautiful!
Looking at the creek.

Awesome place!

Loved this property! Comfy, easy access, clean, etc. I loved having the river so close and listening to it at night. The location is an easy bus ride or car ride down the road from both Vail and Lionhead villages. The owner was very responsive to all of my questions and the listing description was super accurate. I would stay there again!

family spring break trip

The property was in excellent condition/no issues. The owner reached out ahead of time to answer any questions that we might have and to explain the parking, surroundings, etc. The location is perfect for easy access to the Vail shuttle and a short drive from the Cascade lift.

Overall, the place is exactly what you would want in a mountain get away. Being next to the bus stop is perfect for getting anywhere, and having the hot tub across the parking lot to warm up was great. Very quiet neighborhood as well. The only hiccup was the cleaning crew left dirty towels all over the living room so when we srriced we were a little grossed out. They came and cleaned up right away though so nothing too serious

Response from VrboOwner on 27 March 2026
We are always happy to hear that our guests enjoyed their stay! With respect to the hiccup, due to their early-arriving flights, Jonathan and his group had asked for an early check-in. After much back-and-forth with our cleaning company, who clean many properties around Vail, I was able to give them an early check-in. After the guests arrived and found the towels, I got in touch with the cleaning company, wondering if they had inadvertently left clean (but maybe damp) towels in the den. Our cleaning team was cleaning our unit next door (I had asked them to finish the early-arrival unit first) and finished the towels. I cannot understand why the spread-out towels would be dirty as I have seen the crew work and dirty towels go from the upstairs bathrooms to the laundry room. It doesn't always work, but we were happy that our cleaning crew was able to get our guest in a few hours early! Jim Donaldson

A Little Slice of Heaven

This was a truly wonderful place. The creek was literally 20' from the back porch and the sound was just heavenly. Even though we were there in late August, the wood-burning fireplace was a true bonus. We used it both early morning as well as several evenings to chase the chill away. We highly recomend.

Winter Wonderland

We all loved the place. The view with the creek was amazing. The fireplace and the entire setting was very cozy. We would definitely recommend it. We stayed with our two boys who are 23 and 21 and the loft was perfect for one of them to stay. We all had enough room. The hot tub is just steps away which everyone enjoyed. The shuttle takes you right into town and is very timely. We had a great time!

Peaceful setting, convenient location

The town house was even better in person than the pictures showed. It is furnished very comfortably and attractively. The beds were extremely comfortable with such nice bedding. There were 5 of us and we all slept very well (2 kids on the trundle bed). The best part, as others have said, is Gore Creek right out the back door. Sitting out on the deck and just letting your mind wander is so relaxing. Lots of birds and ducks to watch as well. The creek can also be heard from the bedroom with the windows open, heavenly! The kids would vote for the pool as one of their top amenities, very close by, with a hot tub as well. The owners have thought of everything for their visitors - kitchen and bathroom are well stocked with all sorts of useful things - so considerate! We had a wonderful time, and would definitely return.

Colleen, Thank you for your review. The Ptarmigan complex is a great out-of-the-village location and it has the amenities that drew us there 27 years ago. Yes, Gore Creek right off the back deck is frosting on the cake! Thanks again, Jim
