Set in the heart of Vail Village, Mountain Mama is exactly what you picture when you imagine a skiing adventure in Colorado. Think stone fireplaces, exposed beams, mountain views, plush bedrooms and even two balconies to choose from for your morning coffee. One of the bedrooms even has a window overlooking the lounge. If you can bear to pull yourself away from your cosy cabin, you're perfectly placed to hit the slopes - the home is mere steps away from the gondola. Your stay includes two ski lockers at Gorsuch Ski Cafe, handy to grab your equipment and head off each morning. The quaint Vail Village is a wonderland right through the year with cobblestone streets, a winter ice rink, Bavarian-style architecture and a sprinkling of luxury boutiques and restaurants.

Local guide


About Vail

The Rocky Mountains provide some of the best skiing opportunities not just in North America, but in the world, and nowhere is that more obvious than Colorado. And in the summer, the hiking trails can provide just as much activity. Vail is a real hotspot for this outdoor action, with vast mountain slopes and countless non-skiing options. The town itself, modelled after alpine villages in Switzerland and Germany, is known for its lively apres-ski scene. The surrounding towns and villages don’t have the same reputation for being celebrity destinations, but they offer quieter slopes and equally charming main streets.

The style and ambience she's created is very unique, cool and contemporary - especially for a suburban home in the mountains. The main thing you'll feel in one of Linsday's homes is looked after.
