If you want to say you've been to the best ski resort in the U.S., make plans
for a trip to Vail. Colorado. Often named the number one ski destination, Vail
is not to be missed by the avid or beginning skier looking for a full plate of
activities, on or off -season. Vail is about 100 miles west of Denver, and has
its own distinct areas in which to choose a ski vacation condo, home or villa.
Vail Village and Lionshead are older and more central. You'll find plenty of
Lionshead rental properties, while both areas have an abundance of nightlife.
There are also West Vail Village and East Vail village, only separated by a
couple of miles, and carry a more quiet residential feel.
No matter which area you choose to stay, a Vail rental home, villa or condo
will provide a perfect staging point for all of your vacation activities. Rental
properties provide more space and privacy than your standard hotel room. Your
vacation respite becomes more of a home away from home, and makes relaxing that
much easier. All Vail vacation rentals will come fully furnished, with kitchens
and linen service. Most will provide easy access or transportation to your ski
destinations. And that's what you're here for, right? Add some luxury to your
stay and add some amenities, like a fireplace, hot tub, gourmet kitchen,
wireless internet and a stunning mountain view. You're in Vail, Colorado, the
Tiffany's of Ski destinations, so make it memorable.
There are nearly 5300 acres of skiing to be covered in Vail. The three most
distinct areas are the Front Side, the Back Bowls and the Blue Sky Basin.
Between these three areas you'll enjoy 193 trails and 30 lifts. The average
snowfall is around 350 inches per year, which is a lot of snow. It's enough to
enjoy about any winter sport you care to try. Plus, Vail is home to many
tournaments, where you can watch the pros do it right. Festivals and Arts events
make Vail an entertaining place year round. The American Ski Classic, the Honda
Session snowboard tournament and the Charles Schwab Birds of Prey tournament are
all here in Vail. And for a really grand time, make plans to be there during
what is billed as "the biggest blowout in the mountains" during "CarniVail",
Vail's own version of Mardi Gras. You fill in the blanks.
Spring brings the Vail Film festival and the Spring
Back to Vail music and ski festival to close out the season. Then, it's time for
mountain biking, fishing, camping and hiking, whitewater rafting, kayaking and
horseback riding. You'll find that even in the warm months, there are plenty of
Vail vacation rental homes, chalets, condos or
apartments in Vail fro which to choose. Check out this site to find some really
great places offered by only reputable rental property companies you can trust.
Then pack up the gear, and head to the mountain paradise of Vail, Colorado. You
won't regret it, even if you don't know how to ski.
