About this property

100 Steps to Gondola! A/C, Steps to multiple restaurants, shops, and rentals!

Lionshead Arcade was built in 1970, an older building but in the middle of Lionshead at the base of Vail Mountain. There is no better location close to the lifts at this price at any ski mountain in Colorado! And this is Vail! The unit is tastefully furnished with HD TV and fast internet. Many restaurants within sight and over one hundred in the Vail base area. Ice skating around the corner, movie theater and bowling four bus stops away. The condo was totally remodeled with all new furniture in the fall of 2017. It is done so you can enjoy the incredible convenient location in the heart of the village of Lionshead.

Great Location
We had a great stay here! The property is just steps away from the gondola, which makes it very easy. The property was clean and spacious enough for our family of four. The host was very responsive and helpful and accommodated our request for early check-in. I would just be aware that the condo is up two flights of stairs. We would definitely stay here again!

Charming Condo at Lionshead Steps from the Gondola!
Charming condo in the middle of Lionshead steps from the gondola, Performance Ski rentals, and the shuttle! Condo was cozy, clean and well-stocked with all the essentials. Josh&Katie were excellent hosts and shared great recommendations that enhanced our stay!

Great location, mediocre property
This property is just okay and not as advertised. The washer and dryer are outside the unit and coin operated--not convenient and in a dark hallway. The master had a dirty comforter but the owner sent a crew to reclean. Thee is a very high step up to get into the shower in the master and it was not easy. Overall this unit was disappointing.

Family of 5 vacation right in lionshead
Our family of 5 (3 kiddos aged 5-9) loved our stay here. The location is awesome. The balcony overlooked lionshead mall and since we were visiting during July 4th we got a birds-eye view of the parade and lots of other fun. We loved being able to walk down the stairs and be right in the village. There are lovely waking paths to further east parts of vail village along Gore creek and meadow dr (about 15 mins). There is a small grocery store within a 5 minute walk and so many shops, restaurants, and activities within short walking distances too. The unit was as described and stocked with all the essential consumables we needed (paper towels, toilet paper, garbage bags, plastic baggies, dish detergent and soap, coffee filters) and toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, soap, lotion), which is really nice since these are sometimes missing from rental units. Plenty of towels and linens too. There was also a variety of pillow types (soft/firm) so our family was able to trade around to everyone’s liking. We loved our stay and can’t wait to come back - would definitely book again.

Perfect
We had a wonderful time. The condo was well stocked with all things needed. The down side was the temp in Vail was very warm 80-90. No air in the main part and standing air conditioning in the bedrooms, which is noisy. But otherwise the condo is perfect. It just needs to be cool. Which I’m sure it is most of the year. The location is close to everything. 😊 Loved it!

Greatly appointed condo in the heart of Lionshead
We have been coming to Vail for years & have stayed in many VRBO's all over the country. This condo was the perfect size for us with 3 sleeping areas and 2 full baths. It was one of the most well-appointed VRBO's we've EVER stayed at- spices, plenty of dish soap/detergent, laundry detergent, Kleenex, paper towels, you name it we had it there and available for use, that was so nice not having to go buy any of that! The only down side was that sleeping on the sofa bed was bright and noisy at night with the lights & music from nearby restaurants, birds and early rising sun. Using an eye mask and white noise can helped. We would recommend this place!

Location x 3
Fantastic location, everything was great except three relatively minor issues: 1) the laundry is coin operated, inside the building but outside of the unit, 2) the dishwasher is really small, and 3) the nonstick pans need to be replaced. Otherwise, the property couldn't be better located, and we had a great stay.

About the host

Hosted by Katie Harrison

Host profile image
We live in Denver with our two pugs and it was our dream to own a property in the mountains...and what a better place than Vail?! It's funny, we looked at all the mountain resort towns around Colorado, and ended up choosing Vail because of the people - (they're awesome!). And we fell in love with Vail because of the skiing and the amazing summers up here. The mountain and village(s) have something for everyone - in all-seasons!

We love to ski, apres ski, eat amazing food, hike, bike & walk along the river trails, travel and enjoy the outdoors all year long - and Vail gives us the perfect opportunity to do everything we love.

We hope you come and it enjoy it as much as we do!
