What to do and see in Beaver Creek, United States: The Best Places and Tips

December 31, 2017 Terina Blouin

Step away from the hustle and bustle into the secluded luxury of three alpine villages in one at Beaver Creek. At the foot of Beaver Creek Mountain, the unique village-to-village ski system and ski-in/ski-out accommodations of Beaver Creek Village and neighboring Bachelor Gulch and Arrowhead Villages make it almost unnecessary to remove your skis! The mountain offers groomed slopes and world class competitions, including the Birds of Prey World Cup, as well as an array of summer activities.

Popular year-round resort in the Rockies offers excellent snow skiing and snowboarding in the winter and exhilarating sports such as mountain biking and hiking in the summer.

(pre kids) we went to Beaver Creek (90's). I remembered it for the amazing ski experience. Well they have done so much since then to expand the amazing experience. Springfest activities for kids. A beautiful comfortable setting of cushioned chairs and gas fire pits. A reasonably priced ice skating experience at $10 per child. A five star vibe with top notch galleries and restaurants. It was a very nice place to visit.

Whatever ones religious preferences, this is a beautiful place to visit.
The soaring wooden beams, the magnificent stone work outside and in, and the impressive wrought iron chandeliers and entryway ornamentation; all combine to create an environment perfectly settled into the grand natural surroundings.
Whether one is sharing a spiritual fellowship, seeking solitary contemplation or just enjoying an aesthetic uplift; this serene setting is a wonderful option.

Free shuttle running between Beaver Creek and the Ritz Carlton. Max turnaround time is around 30 minutes, but usually shorter, for you and up to maybe a dozen others. We found it quite convenient to call a number, in either direction, to take advantage of both locations. Drivers were very friendly and accommodating.

We spent a full day on snowmobiles with Stan from RMAR. He is an amazing guide who took the time to gauge our ability, appetite for adventure and customized our day to perfection. The equipment is top notch and well maintained. RMAR is a smaller, more personalized team and I would recommend them without hesitation. If you are looking for something unique, book with RMAR!

I am still beaming after summiting my first 14er with Walking Mountains, Peter, and his fellow guides. Joined them on other hikes and will in the future. This welcoming group includes seasonal locals, vacationers and folks of all ages, whoever is available and interested on the allotted day. As I'm the big hiker in my family, this removes my concern about hiking alone and gives me access to gorgeous places. Well worth the time and your effort, wherever they take you around the Vail Valley environs.

The Avon Recreation Center is impressive. Designed to be a Family facility, it achieved this goal. Hard to believe it was built in 1995. Well maintained, with practically new equipment. Attractively painted the color of Water ~ turquoise blue.

Skiiers & outdoors-types use this facility weekly. Non-Skiiers use it year round as well, since there are classes & activities for all ages & abilities. I noticed but a handful of people walking around who didn't look fit.

I like to do a variety of exercises & stretches + laps in the pool inbetween ski days. Hot tub is popular too.

This Facility Makes Fitness Fun!

This service has it all! the guides are great, personable, knowledgeable, and very experienced! Weather can be a concern and yet they prepare you with any equipment you forgot to bring! Short one hour to the highly recommended all day up one of Colorado's 14,000 foot peaks. From beginners to skilled hikers they have something available for all. Take advantage of the daily free hike for a little taste of what the guide will do.
