Vail Valley Resorts
Avon, Colorado
Beaver Creek's front door — where the gondola meets the river
Avon sits at the base of Beaver Creek Resort along the Eagle River, serving as the practical hub of the western Vail Valley. While Beaver Creek Village gets the magazine covers, Avon is where the gondola actually starts, where the Westin Riverfront anchors a growing dining and retail scene, and where locals go for everyday life. The town has invested heavily in Nottingham Park — a riverside green space with a lake, trails, and summer concert series. For visitors, Avon offers Beaver Creek access at Vail Valley prices without the Vail Village markup.
