Heart of Vail Valley-Access to Resorts, World-Class Skiing, Hiking, Rafting

Visitors from around the globe are drawn to our inviting three-bedroom condominium, which is used as a gateway to world-class skiing and snowboarding.

We are directly across I-70 from Lioinshead Resort, the most centrally located access to all of Vail Mountain. It's either a short walk, or one stop on a free bus that stops regularly for passengers directly across the condo on Lions Ridge Loop,

Besides the snowsports, apres-ski, and fine dining--visitors use our condominium year-round for near unlimited hiking, biking, and rafting.

Vail Ski Resort's reputation is merited for its powder snow and as America's largest selection of ski runs. Some skiers come exclusively to enjoy the renowned Back Bowls and Blue Sky Basin, alternatively wide open and forested ski runs that are quiet areas to ski for skiers of all abilities.

The kitchen is considered up-to-date and stocked with sufficient kitchenware to cook complete family meals. There is also a dishwasher for easy cleanup The counters are dark Silestone and the appliances are matching silver and black. VLP flooring was recently installed on the main areas of the ground floor, adding a warm look and feel.

The bathrooms, which we continue to improve, are cleaned between guests, as you'd expect, and are deep cleaned before and after each season.

We cherish our balcony, off our family room with the fireplace, which we use as a secluded reading spot while enjoying unobstructed views of the Gore Range while also listening to the rushing waters of Gore Creek just below.

You can stay connected with high-speed WiFi, and enjoy the convenience of an in-unit washer and dryer. To unwind in the evening, we will sit in front of the cozy gas fireplace and catch up on the latest TV shows on the wall-mounted smart TV.

The area also boasts top-class visual arts performances at the Gerald R. Ford Amphitheater in Vail, where audience members often have access to meet some of the stars.

A half-hour drive West is one of the most spectacular drives in America, through the Glenwood Canyon. At the end, you will emerge at Glenwood Springs, a fork for the Eagle River, that has the largest heated pool, private hot spring pools, and heated sulfur caves—perfect for relaxing after a day of sport.

Great location, comfortable amenities, and privacy make our second home an easy choice for an unforgettable mountain vacation!

Great condo with easy bus access to slope

We really liked the layout and amenities of this condo. It had all the kitchen items we needed and good group seating for hanging out. The pool and hot tub were nice and nearby and it had easy access to the slopes via regular free bus line. Would stay again.

Location, size, cleanliness all as expected. Host kept in touch and gave us some good tips. Constructive opportunities for improvement; Fix slow drain in bathrooms, consider repairing/replacing shower heads, Keurig is not functioning and coffee pot only makes 4 cups. We would book again. Thank you!

Great location and easy slope access!

This property did not disappoint! The pictures of the main level were very accurate, the kitchen and dining are very spacious with nice bathrooms and bedrooms on the main level. The upstairs bedroom was very spacious, but the blinds do not go down all the way so it was very bright in the mornings. The sink space upstairs was minimal and that made things a little tricky, but we worked through it. Overall, we always enjoy staying at this complex and we will definitely look to book again!

Mediocre property

We were very disappointed from the moment we arrived. We were given the wrong entry code and had to call someone to get in. The description of the property said it was renovated, it was very apparent that it had not been updated in many years! There were very few window coverings in the unit. There was no coverings in the upstairs bathroom! The one in the upstairs bedroom only covered half the window, and there were none in the living/kitchen area. The place was dusty and the walls were dirty. It definitely was not worth the money we paid!

21 days in vail

We love this area of vail! Away from the bustle, lots of sun, and easy walk to Lionshead, which is our favorite location to ski out of. Would not want to do the 0.7 mile in ski boots so thankfully Vail ski tech in Liobshead stores our skis and dries our boots over night! The bus stop is just steps from the building for the few times the sidewalk was icy. The bedrooms in this unit are the largest we have experienced in Vail! Loved starting my morning with some pre-ski yoga in the spacious primary bedroom while enjoying a fantastic view of the slopes! We also enjoyed reading on the balcony while listening to the stream below.

Beautiful Mountain Getaway

Enjoy all Vail has to offer within walking distance to town, beautiful creekside walks, or feet away from the town bus line! Hear the sound of the creek below and see views of the mountains from most rooms! Large swimming pool and two hot tubs too are perfect for a cool down too! Wonderful place to stay!

Great Vail Location with room for 6

This property has a great location with easy access to the Vail bus. The community hot tubs were an ideal way to make friends and follow up on a strenuous day skiing. I consider a return in the future.

Wonderful trip to Vail

The property is located in a convenient location. We walked to Lionshead for dinner and took the bus for our ski days. Both were great choices. The house was clean, well furnished and plenty big for our group! The property owners were also very responsive. Can’t wait to come back next year.

Not Close to Slopes

The property was located on the 5th floor, thank goodness for an elevator from floor 2 to 5. Close to shuttle stop, however, where you exited the shuttle to get to the slopes was another 15-minute walk without skis & ski boots. So, if you had to walk in boots (no way) and carry your skis, plan on 25+ minutes PLUS you better be in shape! I have been traveling west to ski for the past 30+ years and this may have been our worst experience! Had some minor issues with the property when we arrived but a phone call or two took care of them. Even though it is listed as a 6 to 8 person condo, extremely small.

Great location

This property is located right on the free bus route-no need for a car. Bedroom to full bathroom ratio was perfect. 1 bath is shared with the living area on first floorIt's only 1 stop from pedestrian bridge at Lionshead. It was so close we walked it most days. We stored our skiis and boots at Vail Tech which is right on path to lift. The owners are very attentive and responded quickly.

Love Breakaway West - great unit !

Love this location for the price! Very convenient on the bus route. This unit was great. The 3 bedrooms and 3 baths were perfect for our group. Loved the gas fireplace. Unit had everything we needed. Very comfortable place to stay with seating for all of us. (Often times places sleep more than they can sit at the table, or living room, etc). Very pleased with this unit!
