About this house rental

Town of Vail STR 002629
Christmas deal! $1695/night Dec 17-25,2024!
Just off of 'Born Free', the ski run leading to the gondola. The house is 100 yards from the ski run and overlooks the magnificent Gore Range Mountains. Named 'Chalet du Soleil', this charming four bedroom home is within easy walking distance of fine restaurants and shops. The house is on a large lot. Sledding and playing in the snow can be enjoyed by those with excess energy after skiing. We provide the sleds. The house is equipped with all the amenities you are accustomed to in your own home.

The house comfortably accommodates up to ten people. The master suite features a queen-size bed plus whirlpool tub for two (jacuzzi type) and separate shower room. The other main floor bedroom includes a queen-size bed, bath/shower, and an expansive bay window. The third bedroom on the upper floor has a queen-size bed, two twin-size beds, plenty of closet space, and a large vanity sink area.

The fourth bedroom is, in fact, an adjoining studio-apartment with king-size bed, compact kitchen and full bath. All beds are made up in the Swiss-style with comforters, extra pillows, and ironed sheets.

My wife and I and our 4 young kids have rented the Chalet for over 70 days over the last three years. It's become somewhat of a family tradition. There is a reason we keep coming back!! I'm having a hard time finding more great things to say about our stay that I haven't previously said, but honestly if you are thinking of coming to Vail don't lose your opportunity to stay here. Can't beat the location as it's walkable to both Lionshead and Vail village. Easy access to the mountain and gondola. Beautiful yard to hang out in in the summer. Very private. Ample Parking. Very Clean. The host, Heather, is easily accessible by text, phone or email and is absolutely top notch. Looking forward to staying again soon! Don't miss out!

This property has a very convenient location and is undoubtedly an amazing value during ski season. The owner's daughter acts as a manager. We stayed for nearly 3 weeks and there are a few items that, for us, were disappointing. The house is a duplex than, the efficiency that "adjoins" the property is the basement that has been built out. The upstairs bedroom is the attic. You will be asked not to venture toward the river as the owner lives in the dwelling between you and the river. Consequently, there is not really a river view and you cannot hear the river due to the steep bank and the formidable structure between you and it. Also, the "water feature" does not work - the signage around the house asking you to not allow kids to play in the water feature alludes to this being an issue for some time. Unfortunately, stagnant pools of water, even in Colorado, attract mosquitos and bugs. The water feature and trees are your only real view from the back deck, so looking at stagnant water was disappointing. Finally, the linens and bedding were of medium to poor quality. The "comforters" were as seemingly old as the house. The mattresses were cheap when they were new - many, many years ago. The mattress covers have been washed so many times they are falling apart. Apparently "Chalet style bedding" means old and falling apart in Swiss. I bought a mattress pad, new mattress cover, and sheets for the basement where my wife and I slept. The proximity to all Vail has offer is amazing.

Lovely 4 bedroom house! Very clean. The kids loved the sleds and outdoor toys. The grandparents stayed in the lower level which is a full in-law suite. The parents and kids had the main level and loft. This is an older unit, maybe 50+ years old with updates. The kitchen is small but has everything you could want, there are plenty of cooking tools and a nice large dining table. The host, Heather was very accessible and ready to accommodate questions or requests. The walk from the Chalet to the Gondola and Lionshead area of shops and bus is pretty along Gore Creek. The walk took us about 12-15 minutes. We wanted to go back to the house and back out to the village several times per day so this walk is something to consider.

Heather's house is a 5-star property. Surrounded by the encroaching "new money" Vail houses, this place gives the feel of an older, cozier Vail (which I prefer). Plenty of room for 3 kids and 4 adults. Ski storage, warm towering fireplace, and a well-stocked kitchen. The house is about a 5 minute walk to the slopes, and you can even "cheat" after the lifts close and walk the ski trail directly into Lionshead for restaurants and shopping. Would recommend for anyone looking for a home away from home in Vail.

The property was perfect for our family and friends to enjoy a Christmas ski vacation. Just steps to the gondola in Lionshead with a cozy atmosphere and wonderful wood burning fireplace to return to after a long day of skiing. Kitchen was well equipped and Heather, the hostess, was fantastic to communicate with. We will totally be renting again in the future.
