Travelogue
Luxury lodging in a natural Rocky Mountain setting has proven to be a winning combination at this five-star resort just outside Beaver Creek and Vail. There is no end of things to do here, but the main attraction in the winter months is world-class skiing at nearby Beaver Creek Mountain. When you’re done with the slopes for the day, treatments in the spa (featuring a stone-lined grotto) will help soothe sore muscles, while comfort food and campfires will get you ready for another session. Grab a nightcap in Buffalos gastropub. In the summer, the natural beauty of Bachelor Gulch takes over — be sure to take a guided nature walk. There are two offerings at the nearby Red Sky Golf Club available to Bachelor Gulch guests: a Greg Norman course that is regarded as one of his best designs and a second course by Tom Fazio. Both are long on views and challenge.
