Vail Valley Resorts
Edwards, Colorado
Vail Valley's hidden center — better food, lower prices, zero pretension
Edwards sits between Eagle and Avon in the central Vail Valley, and it's become the quiet favorite of people who live and work in the area year-round. The Riverwalk at Edwards — a pedestrian shopping and dining village along the Eagle River — has attracted restaurants that rival anything in Vail Village, minus the $40 parking and the crowds. Edwards doesn't have a ski lift or a tourist bureau, which is precisely what makes it appealing. It's 15 minutes from Beaver Creek, 20 from Vail, and considerably cheaper than both for lodging and meals.
Boutique hotel at the Riverwalk with river-view rooms and ski storage. Walking distance to dining.
Condo rentals above the shops and restaurants. Kitchen, washer/dryer, and no resort fees.
Fine dining with a seasonal Colorado menu. The lamb and elk preparations are standout.
Edwards' neighborhood spot — burgers, salads, and a patio that fills up at 5 PM.
High-end retail and cafe at the Riverwalk. Coffee and pastries in a space that looks like a Ralph Lauren ad.
Open-air pedestrian village with restaurants, shops, and river access. The closest thing the Vail Valley has to a European piazza.
Network of trails through the Berry Creek neighborhood connecting to the Eagle River corridor.
Community park with playing fields, a playground, and summer event programming.
Price and dining. A hotel in Edwards costs half of a comparable room in Vail Village, and the Riverwalk restaurants are on par. You're 20 minutes from Vail's slopes.
The Riverwalk area is very walkable. The rest of Edwards is more suburban and requires a car or our service.
Door-to-door from DIA or anywhere on the Front Range. Flight tracked, no surge pricing.
