Beaver Creek Resort is the perfect place for discerning travelers headed to the Colorado Rockies. The gated, luxury resort community offers a plethora of amenities for mountain getaways. Beaver Creek’s appeal is broad. The resort prides itself on its safe, family-friendly environment and variety of activities and programs for the younger set. Perhaps you’re looking for a place for a romantic weekend, a business-related event, a wedding or a relaxing mountain escape. Beaver Creek offers all that and more all seasons of the year. It’s as beautiful in spring, summer and fall as it is in winter.
There’s a wide range of lodging options ranging from large luxury hotels to home and condo rentals. If you crave the intimacy of a chic, contemporary boutique hotel matched with attentive service, however, try The Osprey (A Rock Resort). It’s the perfect choice.
The 47 well-appointed guestrooms are spacious and welcoming. For the best views in the hotel, request a southwest room. Gas fireplaces in the Superior Rooms are faced with a beautiful contemporary stone tiling and add a welcome touch on a cold winter’s night. The larger deluxe rooms boast vaulted ceilings. If you desire suite-like accommodations, the hotel’s third-floor condo offers two to four bedrooms and a spacious great room with a granite and stainless steel gourmet kitchen.
For your sleeping pleasure, rooms have uber comfortable platform beds covered in luxurious 800 thread count Frette linens and down duvets. It’s the perfect combination for a gloriously restful sleep. Amenities include: flat-screen TVs, DVD players (there’s a free DVD library), MP3 players and those gas fireplaces. Granite baths feature either soaking tubs (most two-bedded rooms) or walk-in showers (most king bedded rooms). A few accommodations offer steam showers. The organic bath products are formulated especially for Rock Resorts and include an unscented soap, great for anyone who is allergy prone. If you want to relax and unwind après ski or any time, the concierge can arrange an in-room massage.
The Osprey Lounge is a congenial gathering place for guests after a long day exploring the great outdoors and serves breakfast, lunch and light dinner with small plates the specialty. The adjacent family-friendly “Social Room” feels like one’s living room and offers Wii, X-Box, board games, TV and DVD player. Parents can relax over drinks and tapas while their kids are safely occupied close-by.
Other amenities at The Osprey include a fitness center with steam room and sauna and an outdoor heated pool with heated deck. Guests can unwind in the hot tub or enjoy a drink from the poolside bar.
The hotel’s prime location is a plus as it’s the closest hotel to a ski lift in North America with the lift literally out the back door. The Osprey is across the road from the Beaver Creek pedestrian village where you’ll find shops, restaurants, ice skating and more. In ski season, the hotel has a ski valet to store and retrieve your gear.
By the way, you don’t need a car here. Beaver Creek is designed to be totally self-contained. Should you go with a rental, you can arrive at the hotel, give your keys to the valet and not get behind the wheel again until you’re ready to depart. The hotel also provides shuttle service in a spacious, luxury SUV so again, so why not forgo the car? Fly into Denver or the nearby Eagle County Airport, take the shuttle or just hire a car for the trip from the airport.
For a luxurious Beaver Creek experience any time of year, The Osprey gets my vote. Sit back and relax while they pamper you.
