Very quiet: No one above, below or behind. With over 1700 sq. ft of living space and your own heated garage, this townhome is beautifully decorated in mountain décor so you can relax and enjoy the incredible mountain views from every room. There are huge windows (just replaced, so even nicer than the pictures!) in the living room from which you look directly at pine trees and feel like you’re camping out! The pines are so refreshing with their scent, and are every color of green you can imagine! In the spring, summer and fall, you can enjoy the sound of the stream just steps away.
There is a gas fireplace in the living room, and a high def. flat screen TV and DVD player for watching your favorite movies. (DVDs of a couple dozen movies are provided.) The bluetooth soundbar plays music from your devise wirelessly for the ultimate in relaxation. The huge windows and vaulted ceiling make for a peaceful, spacious setting. There is free WiFi and HD Comcast cable TV service with streaming.
The dining room table easily seats 8, with three bar stools at the kitchen bar. The kitchen has beautiful stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. Calphalon cookware. You have all you need to cook a meal or just bake a pizza. Or grill out a steak on the back porch on the Weber grill! Also on the main floor is a half bath.
Many ski condos have stairs everywhere, such that to unload groceries or anything into the kitchen, you must climb stairs with your bags. With this town home, you pull into your own garage, (garage door opener provided) and the kitchen is just steps away on the same floor. So easy. And to go run an errand, you step out to your warm car in the heated garage. When you get home, just pull right in to the heated garage with the garage door opener. Close the door to keep out the cold, and unload in the warmth. Makes those errands so much easier!
Upstairs, the master bedroom looks out the back onto the pine forest. You can hear the stream from the king sized bed or the window seat during the warmer months. There is a large closet and master bath with double sinks and a jetted tub, and separate shower. You have your own flat screen TV to watch a show before you fall asleep.
Also upstairs, the second and third bedrooms look out onto the massive Wolf Rock mountain and share a full bath off the hallway. One has a queen sized bed, and the other has a queen bed with a single twin loft bed over the head of the queen below. Much easier to get in and out of bed than the bunks that run in the same direction. Both bedrooms have flat screen TVs, dressers, and huge closets.
The living room has a sofa sleeper that can sleep 2.
There is a washer and dryer upstairs for your convenience.
Outside, you can enjoy the wonderful fresh smell of pine trees as you sit on the porch and listen to the stream. The porch faces south so you have warm sunshine most days, even in winter. Kids can play in the snow where you can easily watch them from inside. Or go take a little hike back in the forest and you’ll find the beautiful Snake River, and plenty of places to take a picnic lunch. This townhome is in a beautiful and quiet location where you don’t have to listen to road noise.
There is a beautiful in-ground hot tub in Ski Tip Ranch for you to use just across the street. There are bathrooms/showers/changing rooms there. You also have free keyed access to the pool and hot tubs in the Dakota Lodge in River Run.
The historic Ski Tip Lodge is a one minute walk for you to enjoy a five star dining experience that draws people from all over the country. It was included in the top 100 US restaurants by Open Table, and has been Vail resorts #1 restaurant. Have extra guests? Ski Tip Lodge is also a bed and breakfast. Our townhouse is just far enough away, you cannot see the Lodge at all, but is an easy under 2 minute walk.
During ski season, choose from two free resort shuttle stops where the shuttle bus picks up to take you to River Run, or you can walk the half mile yourself for skiing or shopping or getting something to eat in one of the great restaurants in River Run, the newest village of Keystone resort.
Before and after the regular ski season, the shuttle is on call for you: 970-496-4200. Very convenient! And extremely reliable. So even during off season or after normal hours, the shuttle comes when you call them. So easy.
