Beaver Creek Resort

Beaver Creek in the summer is a love story between nature and luxury — and I fell right into it. The mountain air is crisp, the wildflowers are showing off, and the whole village hums with a kind of peaceful, elevated ease. It’s the kind of place where you slow down without even trying — morning coffee hits different at 8,000 feet, and so does your perspective. From scenic hikes to lazy strolls through the village, everything is beautifully curated but never overdone. The resort itself is spotless, and the staff make you feel more like a guest of honor than just a tourist with a reservation. Even off-season, this place delivers. No ski crowds, no chaos — just clear skies, cool evenings, and a calendar of little luxuries (think: outdoor concerts, local markets, world-class spa treatments, and fire pits that practically beg you to linger).

We loved our week long stay. Our son had great ski school lessons with Sean in level 5. Truly a magical place. Exceptional skiing as well as an incredibly beautiful setting. We can’t wait to return.

1 of top 10 ski resorts in the world! Beaver Creek is a great Ski resort with slopes for everyone and no lines as the lifts are fast, it also has an incredible village full of choices of shopping, restaurants and bars. It’s was a surprise to find lifts closing at 3pm as I’m used the 4pm close times… Beano’s Cabin is a great visit for great creative food while skiing, Chase is an awesome server and GM Ben runs a great ski restaurant. Check out the chicken pot pie

One of my favorite ski resorts - we were so blessed to have a late season snow that brought amazing powder in April - absolutely love the tons in McCoy Park! They are really mellow and were covered in powder

Excellent views from almost all runs. A large and varied ski area. The thing that sets Beaver Creek apart from other ski resorts in the area is how family oriented the vibe is. Not the park for everyone but an excellent park for most people and especially those with kids.

Attention to detail, luxury, convenience, family oriented, pampering, and all in all very well organized. These are words I would use to describe Beaver Creek. Free Cookies are a fun addition at 3pm. If you are looking for more advanced or above tree line skills terrain, this might not be your choice in the area, but we greatly enjoyed BC on one of our more chill ski / rest day.

Beaver Creek Ski Resort is the epitome of luxury and family-friendly skiing. From the moment you arrive, the attention to detail is exceptional, making every guest feel special. The slopes cater to all skill levels, from perfectly groomed beginner runs to challenging expert trails like Birds of Prey. Even during peak times, lift lines are minimal, ensuring more time on the mountain. The resort’s charm lies in its thoughtful touches. Daily “Cookie Time” at 3 p.m., where warm, fresh cookies are handed out, is a delightful highlight. The ski school is phenomenal, with patient instructors who build confidence and skills, making it perfect for families and beginners. The village is enchanting, with heated walkways, boutique shops, and cozy accommodations all within easy reach of the lifts. Mountain dining is top-notch, offering gourmet meals in picturesque settings. The après-ski scene is relaxed yet sophisticated, ideal for unwinding by a fire or enjoying fine dining. Service throughout the resort is unmatched, with friendly staff who go above and beyond. Beaver Creek offers a seamless blend of world-class skiing, exceptional service, and a welcoming atmosphere. It’s an unforgettable destination for anyone seeking a perfect winter getaway. I can’t wait to return!

I have been here twice now and it is just gorgeous and extremely well run and all the workers are friendly. Gorgeous views and good food. me and my family will definitely be back!

Pretty fun resort with ice skating, skiing, jacuzzis (There is 5 of them), and a bunch of places to eat. I would probably not recommend the 8100 restraunt inside of the hotel, because of the long wait times for the waiter to come and take your order with the lack of DINNER options on the menu unlike the other restaurants menus. But this is just the first day so it would probably get better. I would rate it an 4.25 - 4.75 star review Edit: You can also order food to your room

Always a competitive alternative to Vail Village, but a totally different vibe. Everything you would want. Skiing, stores, dining, etc. So much variety in fact there are different quality restaurants, yada yada. Still accurate to call it Beaver Chic. See and be seen. Experience and enjoy. Yes, staff anywhere can some times be underwhelming. But this mountain stomping ground is deserving of more than a 3.8 star average, hence the review. Citrea is my go-to restaurant.

This village is located at the Avon highway exit. You just need to tell the guard you come here for a visit. The parking is at the ground floor below the compound. Because of the compound build on the hill side, there are elevated ground with escalators. Very convenient. This is winter wonderland for skiing resorts. Many come to have snowy vacations. The day we arrive has not snowed yet. We enjoy the outdoors and the leave change in yellow color. It is very beautiful for the fall weather. The compound has giant ski goggles. Great picture spot. The compound also have giant snow globe, statues and more. Don't forget to walk on the ski lift area where all the fall colors is happening.

3 years ago this used to be home for me and my happiest place on earth. Went back yesterday and was shook. I don't know what happened to this place but it's definitely not what it was. The energy of this place is so dead. I mean it's nice because there aren't a lot of lines but it's not a fun environment anymore. Even the lift employees are quiet and usually in their hut not looking or getting anyone hyped. The employees in the beaver creek stores were also terrible, they were rude and/or didn't know what they were talking about. I felt like I was bugging everyone while I was there and that no one wanted to be there. I was even going to get a helmet at a store and told the lady I was gonna go get a drink then come back, I go back after a beer and she has the shop closed down for an hour and 1/2 to go on a ski break.

For the uninitiated (which included me till not so long ago), the Beave is the 'other' beautiful ski resort in the area where Vail is situated; interesting fact - it's actually a few clicks closer than Vail itself if you're by-passing the uncertainty of driving from Denver and flying into 'Vail' directly, AKA Eagle Regional airport or EGE. And while Vail and the likes of Aspen, Steamboat, or even Breckenridge might get all the headlines, BC has a LOT to offer compared to its higher-profile rivals. Both the quality and quantity of terrain are top-notch, especially after their recent expansion called McCoy Park, adding 250 acres, and targetted directly at the once-a-season skiing family flying in from Connecticut or Michigan. Parking is also fairly convenient, where there's a lot at the bottom of the hill, and buses take you up, OR you can pay $35 for private parking much closer in and not have to "endure" the almost 3-mile bus ride. What it doesn't have over its competitors is pricing - they're all just as expensive, as most of those afore-mentioned are owned by Vail resorts; a day ticket is going to set you back well north of 2 benjamins. Do explore online, as there are other, less expensive, options (why do you think I get a season pass? Not because I'm loaded, that's for sure). There are plenty to do even for non-skiing family members at Beaver Creek: a skating rink, art galleries, plenty of (pricey) shopping. And if you do go, don't forget the hot cookies at 1500 every day between the Centennial Express and the baby gondola (in the village). So if you schuss, give BC a try, but book your accomodations well in advance. That Park Hyatt right on sight typically runs you over 2Gs a night in the off-season. Even Air BnB, if available will cost a pretty penny. Couple more tips: having just enjoyed a blue jay day skiing with a local who knows it inside out, I resolve to start my ski day at or close to opening time. I also resolve to ice my knees every day so that I can enjoy the following day to the max.
