The mountains and valley seem to unfold before you at this Platinum-rated Vail condo, a study in contemporary alpine elegance. Take in the spectacular view from your terrace or a seat by the fire, and delight in a prime setting adjacent to the Vail Golf Club/Vail Nordic Center.

This condo sits on the third floor of Fallridge, a complex that's enviably situated on the first tee of Vail Golf Club's PGA Championship course. You'll be just over a mile from ski lifts, great restaurants, and all sorts of shops in the heart of Vail Village, which is easily reached via the free Town of Vail shuttle. The free shuttle service will bring you directly to the Golden Peak Ski Lift. After a day of adventure, enjoy access to a seasonal outdoor pool, a hot tub, a game room with foosball and Ping-Pong, and a conference room on the grounds.

You can walk, take the shuttle, or drive home to the secure underground parking and find the ultimate in relaxation amidst custom stone and woodwork. Crack open a good book by the wood-burning fireplace or get started on dinner using the premium stainless steel kitchen appliances, mini bar, and stately dining room table.
