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!
