Unparalleled Service
When you enter the gates of Beaver Creek, you leave everyday life behind. People come from all over the world for that feeling, and many make it a tradition. The ski terrain is legendary, and spectacularly varied. In fact, this is the only mountain in North America to regularly host the Men’s World Cup ski races on the Birds of Prey downhill race course.
In Beaver Creek Village, an outdoor escalator whisks you and your gear to a winter wonderland with immaculate grooming. A place where you can expect to be pampered; where the staff is trained to not just provide, but anticipate what guests want. It’s no wonder Beaver Creek has won the Best Overall Customer Service Award from the National Ski Association five years in a row.
Hone your skills at the Ivy League of ski schools and rise to the top of your class. At the end of the ski day, reward yourself with a fresh chocolate chip cookie served daily by Cookie Time chefs, and tell your friends about your amazing day on the slopes. We’ll even mail a collector postcard anywhere in the world, free of charge.
Awaken slopeside, amid a warm, intimate village that combines the polish and refinement of a five-star resort with a relaxed, family atmosphere. Enjoy world-class cuisine, blissful spas and captivating performing arts. After the lifts close, take the kids for a sleigh-ride dinner to Beano’s Cabin or SaddleRidge, a living western museum. And check out complimentary family programs offered each night of the week. Highlights include a glow stick ski-down and fireworks display, family snowshoe tours, outdoor ice skating and much more. Beaver Creek is always new, always perfect, always more than you expected.
