We definitely aren't used to big open bowls and had a hard time figuring out where 'trails' were so the upper part of the mountain was a struggle.

When I called to book a room, the person who answered the phone sounded like I was bothering him -…read morelike it was an imposition for me to be calling to book a room! I know the men who run this hotel are from back east & true - east coasters can be "abrupt." I'm from New York & can call this as it was which just bordered on rude. I made a point to check out late with the front desk & told them I had food in the fridge we were taking home. I'd bought really nice cheese, pate & wine for a friend's birthday, along with leftovers from a very nice, expensive meal the night before. We walked around town that morning & came back to the hotel to grab the food & check out. The room was uncleaned & looked untouched when we walked back in but the refrigerator had been completely emptied! I checked with the front desk on what happened & was eventually told everything had been thrown out. What was the point of me telling them exactly what I was doing?! What a waste of money with everything that was thrown out & no attempt was made at making this good for me. I was very disappointed with the service. It was an inexpensive room (in the off season) & the view was nice though the room was dated & the elevator smelled.

Man, I struggled with the stars on this review like no other. The only way I can think to do this…read morereview is with pros and cons. PROS: Price - this condo is by far the least expensive place I've ever stayed in Vail. It is so reasonably priced that it's really hard to complain about anything. Location - this is the biggest pro of all. You are right in the middle of everything in Lionshead Village with an easy walk anywhere you want to go. I'm not sure how to classify this one, but the room and bathroom was scrupulously clean, which is always very important to me anywhere I stay. CONS: The decor is very dated and made it feel a little cheap and shabby. The sofa bed was horribly uncomfortable. It sounds silly, but there wasn't a guide for the TV channels and it wasn't on the screen itself, so if you watch TV, there will be lots of clicking around. And the things in the middle - one, there is very little parking; they have less parking than they have rooms, so beware if you are driving. We never had any issues finding a spot, but it's a little quieter in August. Finally, and I hesitate to mention this because we did not say anything to the management, but the HVAC in our room did not work. It wasn't such a big deal because the weather was very temperate and we could leave the balcony door open, but at the same time, there wasn't a screen on the sliding door, so we had some winged visitors. All in all, A-OK is probably the best way to describe the Lifthouse. I don't know if I would stay there again myself, but if someone was looking for a really reasonable room in Vail, I wouldn't hesitate to point them here with a few caveats.

Wrong assumption we've learned the hard way. on Dec 30th, 2018. We paid a top price on a 2-bedroom apartment for 5 days, and we regretted the moment the elevator door opened at the apartment floor. Licking stains on the wall, asphyxiating smoking smell and an unhanded looking hallway. The apartment 211 is a complete disappointment and a very low-bar offer by the Vail Resort Rentals: old old old, smell like old, the fridge makes a noise because it's from the 80s, stove and exhaust fan are also from the 80s, the bathrooms faucet, and shower are from the early 80s). The carpet is disgusting and the towels (stiff, small, and thin), pillows, and sheets lowest quality than from any Holiday Inn. This property could not be rented by Vail Resort Rentals, a company which supposedly provides good properties to rent,; instead, this property could simply be on Airbnb or vrbo, platforms that don't pretend to provide anything else than a means between landlord and tenants. For health issues, the smell is unbearable, trigging my husband's and my allergy. The smell is the non-negotiable item. Do yourself a favor, don't pay $999 per night here, don't trust the name this company used to inspire the customers, don't deal with "There's nothing we can do", "My manager has the day off today and tomorrow", "We've never had problems before", "I'll have the housekeeping take a look" (the housekeeping crew has a limit to what they are able to do in a 30+ year apartment). Instead, invest the exact same amount staying at The Marriot Vail Mountain Resort, a 5-star hotel for the same price. You will get what you want and the value your money worth. Most importantly, you will then enjoy your stay, be in a clean and healthy space, and be comfortable.

PROS It was perfect size for our family of 16. Loved the big dinning room table Loved the location Booking was pretty easy. Plenty of parking for 4 jeeps and trucks. Wi-Fi worked great. Hot tub was great. CONS the fans didn't work on those warm evenings The broken fans were left on the property so of course we tried those as well. Take them away if they are broken. Dishes were dirty. Pots and pans were very dirty. There was food left in the pantry from before. There is only one key. Which was fine for us because we did things together. Maybe not for the next family. Dishwasher at times wouldn't work. Could use a extra refrigerator in the garage. Back yard could use a bit of weed whacking.

During the months of April and May we became uncertain if we would actually be able to go on our trip.

Thankfully, we were told just days before the trip that things were opened and we would be able to make the trip after all! In the end, we had a fantastic time and would 100% use 5 Diamond Lodging for any reservations we make in the future!!

The complex itself is very quiet and feels secluded. We loved just about everything about this condo. SkyRun manages it very well. I didn't care for how the discounted ski rentals were at Alpine (about a 30min ride away on the free shuttles). I'd rather pay the extra 20% and get them at Christi Or Breck Sports. Minor issues with the actual unit we were in, but nothing to mess with the stay. The management company was even overly accommodating when a departing shuttle issue arrived and they let us rent for a few hours past checkout without any fees. Will totally be back! P.S. the units use a keypad entry. No keys to lose/share or turn in when you check out.

This was my first trip to Vail and first time dealing with Gore Creek. Late check-in (at 1am) was simple. The keys were left for me in a tiny afterhours pickup area about a mile from the vacation home. The house is beautiful on the inside and has a shockingly thorough stock of amenities. We cooked a full dinner two nights in a row (steak, veggies, potatoes, etc) and were only able to do it because the kitchen was SO WELL STOCKED. There were appliances for almost every need (coffee maker, toaster, blender, whatever) and cooking supplies everywhere including a diverse spice rack, oil, ample pots, pans, and dishes. Only more impressive was that everything was so well organized and labeled in the kitchen too. The flow of the house is great. The living room space nicely bends around beautiful vaulted windows to a huge sectional couch. The flatscreen TV w/cable, in-unit laundry, and *perfectly working * hot tub put it over the top. Extra points awarded as the hot tub appeared to be pre-heated by the Gore Creek staff before our arrival! The shuttle system to vail is efficient and painless. I was never waiting more than 10 minutes coming or going, and local pickup in the neighborhood was great. I chartered a Colorado Mountain Express (CME) shuttle one-way back to Denver airport and they picked me up at door with no problems. Again, perfect experience. I would recommend this property to anyone and also recommend the management company to anyone.

My husband, myself and another couple stayed in one of Gore Creek's condos over a weekend in July…read moreand we were pleasantly surprised by our experience. Specifically, we stayed in "Pitkin Creek #5R" We arrive around 4:00pm and our paperwork was located in the "Gore Creek Properties" office. The office wasn't opened but our package answered all the questions we had. The condo was on the other side of the parking lot facing the gorgeous mountains and a lovely waterfall. Our stay was very comfortable. The water pressure and temperature was great. The condo was a little warm upstairs (no A/C). However, we opened the window at night and turned on the fan which helped a lot! The internet was fast and there were a lot of movies and a DVD player. The condo looked and felt very clean. The kitchen was also stocked with everything we needed. There is also a little market/liquor store located right downstairs which was awesome! The second night we stayed there we were watching a movie and one of the neighbors asked us to turn it down. We had the volume at level 30 which we thought was reasonable; however, we did not want to disturb anyone so we turned it down to 20. We had to pause the movie each time we grabbed more popcorn as the rustling of the bag was louder than the TV! Just be cautious of sensitive neighbors. We were less than 15 minutes from the Town of Vail which was perfect! If you go to Vail on Sunday make sure to visit the Farmer's Market! Overall, our trip was lovely and we would definitely book with Gore Creek again!

We checked in around 8 pm. Got a very warm welcome from Kyle at check-in and from Graham at Concierge. Parking is easy and convenient. The room was amazing. We've stayed at places from hostels, to rundown roadside motels to five-star resorts and we'd have to say that our stay here was all around great. The restaurant was great for a last minute meal, but didn't have a ton of offerings nor did it have value priced meals. It also closes at 9 pm which isn't ideal if you tend to eat late. The facilities were all great. Had we not bought into the property, we would definitely return again for a quick getaway.
