There was a slight issue with our time slot as a large party came in a day early during our time slot, but the activity center went above and beyond to compensate us and offered us an alternate, private tour later in the day. We were also offered a free round of mini golf when we got back. JB stopped along the way to take our pictures. Turns out he is a well known/established ski instructor in town. I would definitely recommend Beaver Creek and their staff!

On my recent trip to Colorado I stopped by the Beaver Creek Nordic Sports Center to rent some…read moresnowshoe gear for the day. I've rented gear from this location many times before, and it's always been a pleasant experience, but I felt like my recent visit was less than enjoyable. Laurie assisted us, and when I opened the door to the shop she told us to wait outside, she was on the telephone at the time, and it appears that she was the only one in the shop. So we waited outside, and a couple minutes later she comes out and asks us what we need, she seemed a bit frazzled at the time. We let her know that we're here to rent gear for the day. While sitting outside she has us fill out the paperwork and she brings some hiking shoes for us to try on. Once we tried on boots that fit, she asked for our credit cards, and took them back inside the shop to ring us out. It seemed to be taking a little long, so I thought it might be a good idea to check and see what was going on. When I opened the door to the shop she tells me that my credit card is being declined, and I thought that was strange because I just used it to get a cup of coffee within the last 30 mins and it was working fine at that time. I started to approach the counter because I noticed they have a credit card machine with the chip reader and perhaps she needed to insert my card in there for it to work, and once I do that she puts her hand up and tells me "can you just stand over there". She then walks to the front of the counter and my credit card works when she inserts the chip. After that she comes outside to give us our receipts and says we're good to go, and then I ask her to please explain how to put on the snowshoe gear because my mom has never done this before. She did explain the gear and made sure our poles were at the correct height after I asked her to, however as soon as someone else walked up to the shop, she was quickly walking away and I had to raise my voice and say "Wait a second, we would like to use the restroom before we get on the lift can you please give us the code?" The entire interaction with Laurie was very strange. Usually they would give you a map and share their recommendations of where to hike depending on your skills level. I'm not sure if this was stopped due to COVID-19 protocols or if she just forgot to do it. She seemed a bit rushed or perhaps she wants to limit customer interaction as much as possible due to the COVID-19 situation, but whatever the reason I didn't feel like it was good customer service. I've gone on multiple tours and rented gear in the past, and it's always been great. I understand that with the COVID-19 situation some changes needed to be made (i.e. trying on gear outside, leaving your shoes in bins outside), but if an employee is so fearful of what's going on that they come across with an attitude, perhaps they shouldn't be in a customer facing role, there has to be a happy medium. I wish the best for this shop, but definitely feel like they would benefit from having more of a friendly and warm approach, providing excellent customer service at a distance if they want those customers returning. Without customers there will not be a Nordic Center in Beaver Creek, and that would be a real shame because McCoy Park is such a lovely place to explore.

And we encountered some gorgeous scenery from high alpine meadows with tons of alpine wildflowers, stunning views of the mountains, and the trail meandered through the forest.

They should just say it is $50 for "parking" versus "valet." My bed was comfortable. The room had a little kitchen: a coffee maker, glasses, plates, cups, flatware, a little fridge and a microwave. There was a fireplace. I had a tub and a nice vanity to sit at to get ready. I could open the windows to let outside air in, which was lovely. Front desk staff were kind.

Each and every person told me how much they liked Elkhorn Lodge - the accommodations and furnishings were top-notch, the hot tubs were roomy and clean, the gym had everything they needed, and even the ski lift was super-close to their condos. I had worked pretty closely with the manager to get the correct A/V and food set up for the conference room, and even that went off perfectly, thanks to my obsessive checking and re-checking.

The hotel also was very clean. Hospitality - everyone was soooo nice! It honestly seemed like a Colorado thing but I was impressed. Con: Dated - the resort is dated for sure but you can tell there are upgrades happening over time. Bathroom was redone for sure. There does need to be a bit of tender love and care for some of the appliances and decor but it was still insanely comfortable. While there may have been more things that were either a pro or con, these were what stood out the most. There's a lot of pricey, new and upscale locations all around Avon, but to be honest during my first stay in Colorado, this was perfect for my family. I had no complaints from the kids, and very little from the adults. As a reviewer, I sometimes have a hard time reading reviews.

In my previous interactions, front desk staff have always acknowledged guests, even when they were busy. Because of this, I was confused as to why I was not acknowledged while I waited. I then began working with another front desk agent who was already helping me address the issue. While I was speaking with that agent, Jonathan returned and interrupted the conversation to explain the issue. At that point, I was already receiving assistance, so the interruption made the interaction feel even more confusing and disorganized. I also spoke with Madison about a hold showing on my credit card. She told me there was no hold, even though I could see the hold in my credit card app. She said she would send a message to Accounting and have someone contact me to discuss it further. Unfortunately, I never received a call or any follow-up from Madison or Accounting. Overall, the experience was frustrating because there seemed to be a lack of communication and follow-through. A simple acknowledgment from Jonathan, allowing the other agent to finish assisting me without interruption, and following up as promised regarding the credit card hold would have made the experience feel much more professional and organized.

From the crew at the valet station, the concierge desk (who host daily après ski hot chocolate and fresh-baked cookie parties!), the housekeeping team, the ski valets, the spa attendants, and all of the wonderful F&B folks, the service here is impeccable. The hotel amenities include an elegant spa, well-equipped gym, pilates and yoga studios, heated salt water pool, and three infinity hot tubs that are perfect for après ski soaking. Of particular note, the Westin has updated its Ski Valet shop which offers faultless service for those availing themselves of the Beaver Creek Ski resort. The valets bring your skis to the Gondola which is right outside the door! The lobby bar, the Lookout Bar, and the Stoke and Rye served our guests with superbly crafted food and drink. It should be mentioned that Chef Richard Sandoval is leaving so Stoke & Rye is being repurposed into an Italian eatery under the guidance of a new Chef - we look forward to experiencing this new venue. We held an arrival dinner for our guests in a private space - the Osprey Room - and the food, drink, and ambiance were exceptional. The room was cozy yet spacious and created a warm, welcoming environment for our guests who traveled from all three coasts. We want to make particular mention of our hostess, Sonja Eichenberger. Sonja managed every aspect of our affair, ensuring every dimension of a large party was attended to the last detail. Sonja listened to the Bride's comments and discerned solutions that were both creative and thoughtful. We had several dignitaries in our party - two Senators, a US Attorney, and a Fox News commentator - and Sonja saw to it that consideration was made for both their privacy and security. Much of the success of our special event rests with Sonja. The Westin Riverfront Resort & Spa at Avon is an exquisitely fashionable property but it is the staff that makes the experience special. Thank you Sonja for making our week at the Westin a lifelong memory!

There's fresh apple cider and coffee in the lobby at night. The rooms are clean, beautiful and super spacious. This is a great location within walking distance to multiple restaurants. The washer/dryer in units are a great add. Having a ski check is an awesome option but we didn't take advantage of it. You're set up with coffee, tea and some soap for the dishwasher and washing machine. Fabulous shower, plenty of linens. The fireplace is an awesome touch. The staff will provide a humidifier on request. Good: the valet team gets an 7/10. They mostly accomplished getting my car to me when I needed it. They were pleasant for the most part. Not a lot of them offered to assist me with my bags. My valet call got "missed" or forgotten the day we left. NOT so ok: 1) Surprise valet cost:After everything was pre-paid. We were notified that if we were bringing a car, it would be a mandatory $45/day/car cost. When booking through Booking.com it wasn't clear, but there might be some notes on the website. 2) Unclear on housekeeping : After the first night I was expecting the beds to be turned. I asked the front desk and a young woman politely explained that housekeeping was additional cost per day unless you were staying for over 7-Days. This was fine but would have been nicer to know in advance. 3) Poor communication : We requested late checkout at 9am the day of our departure. It was confirmed by the Manager that we were good to check out at 11 instead of 10. At 10:01 our room received a call. At 10:05 we had someone knocking at our door. At 10:20 we had a maintenance person at our door. We called to the front desk to ask the to stop sending individuals and we were working on leaving. The manager was extremely apologetic and made sure we were comfortable leaving. David is the only reason this review gets a 3 star review instead of 1. Very kind and understanding. In short it is definitely worth the stay but just be prepared for some weird one offs and hope that you don't get kicked out right at 10am. I would stay here again since the space was so beautiful and comfortable.
