In the morning you can hop on the ski lift right outside your door.  Later enjoy the hot tub and outdoor pool.  If you are not up to skiing but still want to move the body, enjoy the private fitness facility.  Underground heated garages, ski storage and easy access to the slopes, makes Beaver Creek Landing a great choice when buying a condominium at Beaver Creek.

Why Buy Property in Beaver Creek

Beaver Creek Trail Map

If I could afford to buy real estate in Vail, I would buy a Solaris Residence.   Having lived in the location of the Solaris project several years ago (Crossroads) I would say it is the best location in the Vail Village.  I could  walk to any spot in the Village in less than five minutes.   I didn’t need a car because the grocery store, the department store, an ice cream shop, the movie theatre and a liquor store where all there.  If I did venture out of the Village I rode my bike.

Some 30 years later the central location holds true, its still a 5 minute walk to anywhere in the Village, the grocery store will be replaced with fine dining, the department store will be rplaced with fine shops and I don’t know if there will be an ice cream shop or not.   What I do know is that there will be movie theatres, bowling and ice skating.  The ski locker is located at the base of the mountian which means no walking in ski boots and lugging equipment to the ski lift.  It means  you can visit you favorite watering holes for apre ski with out hauling your gear around.  It also means you won’t be violating the Code of  the West  by wearing ski boots after dark.

What is being built today, in my opinion, is truly remarkable, ”effortless mountain living with metropolitan convenience, unsurpassed quality, amenities and service”, Peter Knoble the developer.   Even though the project is not finished yet, I have no reason to doubt Mr Knoble’s vision will soon be reality.

Given the choice of owning a property in the Village, I would pick Solaris.  I think there is good vale in the pricing of the available units.  I have seen the model and I am very impressed with the finish level  being offered. 

Currently there are 24 units for sale ranging from a 950 sq ft studio with den for $1,450,00 to  to a 6 bedroom 6,500 sq ft master peice for $19.2mm.  If you are buying in Vail Village, I rcommend you give Solaris a serious look, I don’t think you will be disappointed.

Vail Colorado has always been viewed as an amazing culinary enclave in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, and it continues to impress.  There are many great restaurants in Vail, and here are a few of my favorites.  Each has something to offer, from fine dining, to a more relaxed experience.

Vail, CO

Larkspur Restaurant:  (970)754-8050
Located at the base of Gold Peak, this upscale restaurant is quite casual during lunch, as hundreds of hungry skiers descend to devour their famous Larkburger, amongst other tasty treats.  A favorite of both locals and vacationers, the evening experience is a quite refined, and be sure to consult w/ their sommelier if wine is your thing.  A larger space than many in the valley, Larkspur is well suited for bigger groups; we had our rehersal dinner here and it was exceptional!

Russell’s Restaurant & Bar: (970)476-6700
Russell’s continues to deliver quality steaks and seafood in a comfortable, unpretentious environment.  With a somewhat traditional steakhouse  menu (a compliment in my book) that hasn’t changed much since I’ve lived here, this restaurant welcomes you to Vail Village, as would an old friend, just on your left as you cross the covered bridge.  The laidback feel with excellent food and friendly staff is a big reason I dine here.  Be sure to try the au-gratin potatoes; one or two for the table will be plenty!!

La Tour: (970)476-6930
A great choice for a special evening out, or to simply enjoy an intimate space with excellent contemporary French food.  Located across Meadow Drive from the Vail Village parking structure, La Tour welcomes friends and visitors, and treats all as family.  Chef Paul Ferzacca has created an inviting atmosphere, if not somewhat crowded, to match his inspired cuisine.  Worth calling ahead as it books up!

Please feel free to call or email me anytime about what to do here in the Vail Valley, especially if it involves great food.
