The Pines Lodge, A RockResort, Avon

VIEWS! The Pines sits on a ledge above Beaver Creek so request a "village view" and you will be amazed. I can't say enough about the view as some of the other places where buried amongst one another and thus couldnt have compared. SERVICE! From the valet and front desk to the ski shop and beyond, these people where awesome. You will find the word "pampered" many times in reviews of Beaver Creek and its all true. These folks take pride in making Beaver Creek the "crown jewel of Vail". CONVENIENCE! - We were actually able to ski within about 50 feet of the ski shop, located in the lodge, where you give them your skis for storage, grab your shoes, and proceed with your afternoon. DINING! - Although we did not partake, there were amazing dining options everywhere you looked, including the Grouse Mountain Grill located in The Pines, which was by all accounts very highly acclaimed.
