Vail resort is continually ranked the number one ski resort on the continent. So, what makes it so special? The answer is simple. Clear blue skies surround Vail 300 days of the year, so it’s no surprise that the Vail Resort slogan is “Like Nothing On Earth”.

Last season, Vail resort had 38 feet of powder snow, and Vail Mountain spans seven miles. That’s pretty ideal for the ski and snowboard lover. You can rest assure that there won’t be overcrowding on the slopes – making your day in the snow that much more pleasant!

Are you new to the wonderful world of snow sports? Not sure what to expect from activities that require you to be bundled up in a parka and wool cap? Don’t fret. It’s easy for you to get a ski lesson or snowboard lesson customizable to your level of experience in the area.



Vail resort wouldn’t be the number one ski resort destination if it didn’t also have world-class shopping and restaurants nestled in one convenient location. Explore over 100 shops in Vail Village. From Bag & Pack Shop for your last-minute cold weather needs to gifts for friends back at home from Gore Creek Gallery, you’ll find plenty of retail goodness.

Skiing, snowboarding, shopping, oh my! You must be hungry after a day of fun activities. Sounds like you need an epic burger from any mountain restaurant. Two fresh Angus quarter pound patties, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle, organic white cheddar cheese, and a special sauce are guaranteed to satisfy the appetite of any famished skier, snowboarder or shopper! Casual to up-scale dining options are available to fit any budget and food preference.

If you’re hoping to escape to a premier mountain resort for your next vacation, Vail resort is where you’ll want to be. And if you need a cozy place to rest your head, check out the selection of amazing Vail vacation rentals!
