From Woodland Park, CO, take State Rt. 67 north 29.6 miles to campground on left.
Although the hotel has a great location, would not recommend staying here. Super noisy and outdated rooms, horrible breakfast, restaurant always closed. Even though it is non smoking, smell od smoke everywhere. Specially in high season not worth the money.
If you've ever wanted a true ski-in/ski-out experience, then you need to stay here. They're not lying when they say it's the closest chairlift in North America. After picking up our skis and boots from the attendant, it was maybe, at most, a 20 second walk to the Strawberry lift. If you opened up your room window by the lift, you could hear the chatter of the skiers in line.
We just booked our stay for this upcoming winter with them, and gladly paid more than some of the local hotels in that area because of the experience we had in February 2023. From the staff to the experience, everything was phenomenal. The breakfast each morning was amazing, and many options, so everyone had a choice of what they'd like. We had the larger room, I think they call it a deluxe, and it was a wonderful size, but possibly too big for us as we kept our skis with the attendant. The bed and accommodations were great, and if you prefer a little more room, go that route.
The walk to Beaver Creek village was fine, and I think it took us about 2-3 minutes to get to the heart of the village, where there are more shops and restaurants over there. After going off site the first night, we realized there were plenty of options in the village, so we stayed in the village for the rest of our trip.
The fact they have a ski valet and parking valet is a wonderful touch. It was so nice to come in from a day on the slopes and leave our stuff in their room with the valet. There he would clean our skis and dry our boots, and it was very much appreciated, and we tipped generously for this service.
Again, we pay more just to stay here, but it's so worth it. By the time I pay for another hotel and load up everyone to drive to the resort, and pay for parking, we are happy to sacrifice some other things in order to stay here. And if you search early enough, you'll find pretty decent rates for the upcoming year, and if you're an Epic member, you'll get a discount for staying here. All in all, five stars and we look forward to our trip out there this year!
My son and I had a wonderful time staying at the Osprey - the staff was all personable and helpful, the provided morning breakfast was delicious and the ski valets spoiled us by taking care of our gear and warming our ski boots overnight. One warning: the walls are thin enough to hear your neighbors talking in their room so bring ear protection or noise cancellation for overnight!
We just arrived and are watching the Bucs vs Detroit game in the bar. Enjoying the cocktails and an appetizer. Our room is awesome and everyone is super friendly. Can't wait to explore the rest of the establishment!
The level of service was impeccable from check in to check out. Rooms were comfortable and clean. Valet for both your vehicle and your skis with the added bonus of a ski lift literally outside of the back door. Would absolutely recommend.
