Photos and Description of the Vail vacation house rental
House - 4 Bedrooms - 3 Baths - (Sleeps 10)

Ski to the house from 'Born Free', the ski run leading to the gondola. The house is 120 yards from the ski run and overlooks the magnificent Gore Range Mountains. Named 'Chalet du Soleil', this charming four bedroom home is within easy walking distance of fine restaurants and shops. The house is on a large lot. Sledding and playing in the snow can be enjoyed by those with excess energy after skiing. We provide the sleds. The house is equipped with all the amenities you are accustomed to in your own home.

The house comfortably accommodates up to ten people. All beds are made up in the Swiss-style with comforters, extra pillows, and ironed sheets. Smoking is not permitted.

The owners, Fred and Thea, live in the house next door and will be happy to make your stay a pleasant one! Their daughter, Heather Kehoe, lives in Eagle and manages the property.

Bedroom info: The house comfortably accommodates up to ten people. The master suite features a queen-size bed plus whirlpool tub for two (jacuzzi type) and separate shower room. The other main floor bedroom includes a queen-size bed, bath/shower, and an expansive bay window. The third bedroom on the upper floor has a queen-size bed, two twin-size beds, plenty of closet space, and a large vanity sink area.

The fourth bedroom is, in fact, an adjoining studio-apartment with king-size bed, queen-size hide-a-bed, compact kitchen, full bath, and large walk-in closet. All beds are made up in the Swiss-style with comforters, extra pillows, and ironed sheets. Smoking is not permitted.

About the owners...: Fred and Thea Rumford have owned this charming mountain home since 1966 when it was built as a weekend getaway for their family. Skiing is large part of their lives. They have raised their children to grow up with a tremendous appreciation for the alpine lifestyle and they take great joy in now seeing their grandchildren follow in the ski tracks of their parents.

Thea says, 'The character of this home is incomparable and is sure to please.'

Unique benefits to this house that you can enjoy: Prime Lionshead location. Specular views of the Gore Range Mountains. Very family friendly accommodations.

Thank you for a wonderful stay in Vail. For some of us it was our first time in Vail and our first time learning to ski! The location was fabulous and the Chalet so cosy and had a real homey feel. We were comfortable straight away. For some of us, as seasoned skiers and ex-Vail locals -- the location hit the spot as well. We had lovely conditions and excellent skiing while we were here and the convenience of Chalet du Soleil will be fondly remembered. Many thanks.

Christmas 2012

Submitted: December 29, 2012 Stayed: December 2012
Our family loved our first Christmas in Vail! The accommodations cozy, convenient and picturesque. Appreciated the warm welcome with cheese and wine and Christmas tree! Our Christmas Eve was memorable with fresh snow, warm fire and time spent together, solving the 500 pc puzzle of "Whistler", which we left as a gift to future guests. Our children learned to ski in Snowmass, but Vail is one of our favorite destinations. It is our hope to also see and enjoy the beauty of Vail in summer. It is always a pleasure to visit. Your Chalet was perfect for us this time.

6 people from Dallas, Texas had the most wonderful time here at Chalet du Soleil. The views were simply amazing, the convenience and central location to everything was priceless (no gas used!)! & having our own little fox (dubbed Todd by us) to greet us every morning was unforgetable. Thank you so much y'all.

Our friends summed things up very well. The house, stream, being in Vail, and your attention to detail made it a perfect place for our little college roommate reunion.
