We've been staying at Beaver Creek for almost 25 years. This is our first time at Saddle Ridge and we'd never stay again. The townhome we had was BEAUTIFUL. Beds were comfortable, we had plenty of space, the kitchen had everything we needed and more. The pool was spectacular. The setting was peaceful. So, why would we not stay again? This is a 3 story townhome, which is, itself, accessed at the top of a very long flight of stairs. (How is this even ADA compliant?!) Hauling gear, groceries, etc, up the stairs from the parking lot and then up to the kitchen was torture for someone with mobility issues! There were multiple times that I just hung out in the main bedroom on the first floor rather than join everyone in the kitchen to socialize because I was just too wiped out to do the stairs again! Another unfortunate aspect of the property is that it offers a tiny 2 stall garage per townhome, and it was two small for either our full size SUV with a 'rocket box' on top, nor our friend's extended cab truck. So, we had to leave both vehicles parked out in the elements all weekend. Finally, we were given no information about how to access wifi (not sure if the place even had any?), nor any way to get help or get questions answered after hours/over the weekend. We finally figured out that if you call the regular number, there is an option for 'emergencies', but most vacation rentals will either provide you with info like accessing wifi and getting help when you check in, or they have a binder in a prominent place with necessary information. All in all, we were all comfortable and had a nice weekend, but the chronic illness sufferer will need several days to recover...
Read moreI cannot review this actual properly but have important info to share with travelers considering booking here. ||||I booked a reservation 6 months in advance through Beaver Creek Resorts central reservations. I called 6 weeks before our arrival date to confirm, and was told that nothing was needed, and our reservation was all set. This is our 10th or 11th family trip to BC, and I really wanted this specific property. ||||When we arrived and tried to check in, we were told our reservation had been canceled. They seemed unable to tell what date the reservation was canceled, and had sent me zero information about this despite having both my email address and my cell number. ||||The reception clerk at the base of the resort was great, and tried for about an HOUR to get someone at this property to answer the phone. Finally reached someone, who told them to just book us into a different property...||||My advice - if you book through central reservations, confirm with the property multiple times, and make sure they give you a unit number. Consider confirming again a couple weeks before your arrival, ask their name, and make sure whomever you speak to on the phone is really looking at your record. Their central reservations was poor at best. ||||If you really want to stay at this specific property, consider booking directly with an owner through HomeAway or VRO, not through Beaver Creek Resorts.

Read moreI would like to make you aware of an issue concerning this property at 44 Meadows Lane, Unit #12, Beaver Creek, Colorado. My family made a reservation to spend Christmas at this property in Beaver Creek. On November 23rd, less than a month before we were to depart for our trip, we received notice that our reservation had been cancelled and can no longer be accommodated. As compensation for this, the online booking company, Red Awning sent us a 3 bedroom 1500 sq ft ground floor condo, which is substantially inequitable to the property by all measurables, including but not limited to, size (3000 square feet vs. 1500 sq ft), distance to ski lift, ski in/ski out accommodations, views, and amenities.
My family already booked air travel from Dallas, New York City and Houston to all be together for the holidays. Furthermore, we all paid for lift tickets, and made several other reservations for our trip. When we booked the property through AirBnB in October the price they paid was around 6500. It is now $20,000. SADDLERIDGE finally told us that the owner wanted to use the home. Red Awning, Saddleridge and Airbnb did nothing for us. We did find a home near the golf course that is beautiful we will have a wonderful time together and we will never do business with Air bnb, Red Awning or Saddleridge again. Merry...
