Insider’s Guide to Vail

Vail doesn’t need much selling as a premier ski destination. It’s hard to go wrong with owning real estate in this world-renowned mountain town—it’s a tried-and-true alpine vacation favorite for a reason. With its endless mountain terrain and cozy Swiss-village feel, it’s the perfect resort for family fun all year-round.

Legendary Skiing

Vail’s reputation precedes itself as a world-class destination for skiers and snowboarders. As one of the largest ski resorts in the world, the mountain is home to 5,289 acres of skiable terrain. Though world-renowned for its back bowls, Vail has trails for every level. There’s also snow tubing, ice skating, spas, shopping, and more to be explored for those who don’t ski.

Sundrenched Summertime Fun

Summers in Vail are glorious. With plenty of sunshine and mild temperatures, there are miles of scenic trails to be explored on foot or on bike—all accessible by gondola if you choose. There’s also loads of awesome family activities, like the Forest Flyer Mountain Coaster, summer tubing, mini golf, a bungee trampoline, ropes course, and much more. Plus, golf courses, fly fishing, and whitewater rafting nearby.

Prime Location

Vail’s location just off of I-70 makes it drivable from several major cities, including Denver and Salt Lake City. When flying in, Vail is about a 2-hour drive from Denver International Airport (DIA), or you can fly from DIA to Eagle County Airport, which is just about a 30-minute drive away.

Vail is one of Inspirato’s most popular and largest destinations. Boasting the widest array of mountain properties in the portfolio, each reservation comes with one or two parking spots in Vail Village, a coveted convenience that allows members to enjoy all the village and valley has to offer, no matter which Inspirato home they choose.

Inspirato Member Perks

If you partner with Inspirato to lease your Vail vacation home, there are numerous perks for you and any Inspirato guests. Inspirato members staying in Vail have exclusive access to the Inspirato Member Lounge, an upscale après-ski hangout in the village’s Solaris plaza that’s perfect for unwinding after a long day hitting the slopes and a great place to mingle with other Inspirato members. Wine, beer, and complimentary light snacks are available to enjoy.

Plus, with Inspirato’s Ski Butlers partnership, guests at Inspirato’s Vail properties don’t need to worry about traveling with their ski gear—Ski Butler stakes care of getting it to the mountain, all while keeping it in tip-top shape with a waxing and tuning.

Anyone looking to own a little piece of mountain magic full of fun trails, stunning views, upscale shopping and dining, and year-round outdoor activity will find Vail to be a rewarding choice.
