Getting to Know the Vail Valley: Edwards
The popular one stop town, Edwards, has it all: shopping, dining, businesses, parks and recreation
Used to be, anything west of Vail was considered “down valley”. Now, the end of “up valley” is Edwards. Perfectly located halfway between Eagle (airport) and Vail, this community truly is the heart of the Vail Valley and has the largest population in the county. With a plethora of hiking and biking trails, ponds and parks, and great school options, Edwards is popular among locals and visitors alike. Running along the Eagle River, downtown Edwards boasts some of the valley’s best restaurants and shopping. The Riverwalk offers a movie theater, grocery store, over 25 restaurants and close to 100 shops and services; there’s no need to go anywhere else.
Edwards’ warmer climate lends to its popularity with outdoor enthusiasts. You’ll find golf, fly fishing, rafting, kayaking, hiking and biking, sometimes right out your back door. Freedom Park in the Miller Ranch neighborhood is the home of a skateboard park, a dog pond, a big kids’ park and a sports field for soccer, lacrosse, baseball and football.
Outside of Edwards’ core you’ll find pocket neighborhoods including Singletree, Old Edwards Estates, Miller Ranch, South Forty, Homestead, Lake Creek, Brett Ranch, Squaw Creek and Cordillera. They offer every type, size, shape and age of home available.
