Why You Should Think About Staying In Beavercreek Rather Than Vail When Going To Colorado

Vail, Colorado is one of the most gorgeous and frequently visited mountain resorts in the Rocky Mountains for its world class skiing and its quaint European village that has gourmet restaurants and accommodations. Just down the road by about 10-15 minutes tucked behind the town of Avon, is the Beavercreek resort which has also become a great place and tends to be less crowded than Vail. Here you can stay in the mountain side Hyatt Regency with its famous antler chandelier as well as several rustic iron chandeliers or iron chandelier. For more affordable accommodations, there are a variety of condos here as well.

The Beavercreek Hyatt has some striking views once you step into the lobby with its gigantic floor to ceiling window that looks onto the ski area. In the winter, you can step into your skis that are kept in a guest locker area and hit the slopes or if you go there in the summertime, you can enjoy the sunny weather by the pool that is right at the base of the mountain that is covered in beautiful wildflowers.

If the Hyatt is a bit out of your budget, there are several condominiums located around the main village that are a bit more affordable and offer the guests a bit more room. They vary in kinds of accommodations and prices so there is sure to be something for everyone who wants to enjoy Beavercreek. There is a bubbling creek that meanders through the area and some of the condos are located right next to it, offering the great sounds of rushing water to its guests. Oxford Court is located on the creek and is just a short walk to the center of the village which is most convenient. The condos are all separately owned so you may deal with the owner or the resort office to book one of their units. The Charter is another great place that has been there for awhile and offers a great location and wonderful mountain views also.

For a real splurge, you can stay at the newly constructed Ritz-Carlton in Bachelor Gulch which is a valley down the hill from the village of Beavercreek. Many celebrities enjoy staying here as it is less busy and crowded than Vail and the accommodations are the most luxurious you can get. Another high priced, new addition to Beavercreek is the Cordillera resort. It is known for the four excellent golf courses in a perfect mountain setting in addition to its location perched up on top of a mountain looking over the Vail valley.

One of the fun things in the center of this smaller European village is a large ice skating rink that can be used all four seasons. Beaver Creek is also known for its world class galleries and its newer theatre that hosts several musical concerts. Vail offers a lot more things to do and restaurants but it is nice to be able to go there to visit and then retreat back to the smaller, quieter Beavercreek, just minutes away.
