AMAZING LOG HOME! ACRE YARD, CINEMA, HOTTUB, AC, FIREPIT, GAME ROOM, TOV GARAGE!

HIGHCLIFFE LODGE, Vail’s finest, handcrafted log extravaganza celebrates western style and adventure, and promises an unmatched lodging experience — a whimsical, luxurious, cornucopia for the senses. Located just five-minutes to Vail Village and your private Solaris garage parking space. With designer furnishings, incredible decor and amazing kitchen, baths and beds, your stay at Highcliffe will be truly magical and cherished.

Enjoy a private acre of land with stunning Gore Range and Vail Valley Views, opulent perennial gardens (during Summer and Fall), handcrafted, log craftsmanship and magical Western and European decor. Five bedrooms sleep 12 adults comfortably. On-site indoor amenities include a state-of-the-art Western-mine-themed cinema with 8K Projector and Dolby ATMOS digital sound, ping pong, foosball and billiards tables, and steam shower. Outdoor amenities include hot tub, balconies and decks, a stunning private acre yard with huge stone patio, gigantic moss rock natural gas fire pit, Wolf BBQ, and Summer waterfall. The property is landscaped with stunning perennial gardens, aspen groves, ancient boulders, and an enchanting masonry stone switchback path up our Highcliffe Mountain abutting the National Park, leading to three dramatic stone belvederes with truly mind-blowing privacy and expansive Valley and Nature views.

Highcliffe has an ideal layout for 1-3 families, featuring three large private bedrooms with king and queen beds, with either additional day beds or lofts with twin beds. Two additional bedrooms easily accommodate 5 additional children (up to 7 if children share double bunks). Smaller groups of guests, including couples, feel luxuriated and cozy despite available bedrooms due to Highcliffe's creative floor plan. Bathrooms are mountain themed with quality towels and Molton Brown of London toiletries. Bedrooms feature luxury Shifman mattresses and top quality, professionally laundered and pressed bedding, 4K flat screen SONY TVs with Comcast/Xfinity premium TV service and internet streaming. Closets offer plenty of storage space. Bedrooms have large windows with magnificent open views, and are thematically furnished with Old Hickory furniture.

Location affords many nearby outdoor activities, including white water rafting, fishing and even swimming in adjacent Gore Creek, and outstanding hiking and biking trails for which East Vail is reknown. The property is very near the East Vail Racquet Club with outdoor tennis courts and heated pool, and indoor gym and coffee shop, available for a nominal daily fee.

For Winter Ski Guests we partner with an exceptional family-owned ski equipment rental/retailer with a convenient facility in Vail Village adjacent to Ski Lift Gondola One and our Solaris parking garage parking space. Our partner will store your rented (or owned) ski equipment at their slope side facility for a reasonable fee! Highcliffe also offers on-site ski boot and clothing warmers, and ski racks if you want to keep your equipment at the lodge.

Christmas and New Year Holiday guests celebrate the Holidays with festive fresh wreaths on doors, stockings by the fireplaces and a fabulous home-decorated fresh Christmas tree in the family room -- a Holiday Destination for cherished memories.

For groups of four and fewer and for rentals 3+weeks we offer rental discounts based upon dates. Please inquire. Also please see more pictures at highcliffelodge.

Highcliffe Lodge is a very beautifully decorated, handsome, charming, cozy and well built home full of personal details that address your every need. With lots of fun rooms for entertainment including a theatre and games, you won’t want to leave home except for skiing and shopping in Vail which is very close by. We had a two foot snow storm sweep through on our visit and the trip became magical. We had seven people in our group and fit very comfortably. You will feel very grateful for your stay and sorry to be saying goodbye as you pull away at the end of your stay.

My husband, our three young kids and our best friends and their three young kids had the trip of a lifetime while staying in this epic log cabin! The home is meticulously and perfectly designed in every single room. Plenty of room for multiple families to be together or space out if needed. Whether you want to cozy up by the fire and stare out the window at the snow, or gather in the kitchen to cook a meal together, watch a movie in the one of a kind movie theater, play pool or ping pong in the heated garage, or freshen up in one of the many great bathrooms this home has you covered. Adam is the absolute best host we’ve ever worked with and keeps the home in perfect shape for every single guest. We all can’t wait to return and stay in this home again Next year.

Everything about our stay was absolutely incredible. The property is even more beautiful than the photos online appear, the location is outstanding (less than 5 minutes from the village), Adam is the best host I have ever booked with, and he even has a parking pass for a garage right in the middle of the village! Everything was pristine when we arrived and this was hands down the best trip we have done to date (8 years and counting). I could not recommend this property and Adam highly enough! Thank you for everything, Adam!

Adam, thank you for sharing your slice of heaven with my family. Your home is beautiful and well appointed…from the gorgeous furnishings to the western themed dinner plates. No detail has been overlooked. My granddaughter especially loved watching movies in the cozy theater room complete with a leather chair just her size. The yard and outdoor space is truly stunning. We looked forward to morning coffee on the porch, and even better, wine at sunset on the patio. I will always cherish the memories made with my family this summer at Highcliffe. I hope to make a few more this winter!

We have had an amazing time in this house, we spent our vacation holiday in Vail and was fantastic. We love the lodge, everything in it is great. We hope to be back soon…… We are a family of 10 people, and the lodge works perfect for my group, the jacuzzi, the home theater, the steam bath, the bar and of course the rooms and common areas was incredible. Great value to have a card to use as much as you want at the Solaris parking in Vail Village, just 4 minutes from the house by car, if you are thinking to rent this lodge, do it now you can not loose this property. On the other hand, the communication with Adam was impressive, he was always on line. With no doubt you must go to the Highcliiff Lodge.

We take an annual mom and kids trip to Vail and this home was the best one yet! 4 moms and 4 kiddos stayed here with more than enough space. Could have had plenty more people as we didn’t even use all the beds. Pictures don’t do it justice, it’s truly a luxury home that is well appointed from top to bottom and owners have thought of everything you may need from boot warmer rack to basement bar equipped with all your bar tending needs. There was Great communication from the owner and everyone enjoyed themselves. Added bonuses like the music surround sound throughout and the parking pass for Vail Village just made it even better. Kids favorite highlights of the property: hot tub, garage game room, theater, and bunk room! We will book again next year as soon as the school winter break schedule is confirmed!

Our family recently stayed at Hillcliffe Lodge and had such a wonderful time I could not recommend the property more highly. The quality was really top notch and although it was more costly that other nearby properties there was truly no comparison. We especially enjoyed the back yard although the path was snow-filled so we only were able to wander half way up. The view of the Gore Range was tremendous. We sat up late at night enchanted by the amazing fire pit in the back, and really didn't want to come home. I rarely write reviews, but this place was so special I feel compelled to put out the word. And we felt so welcome with the goodie basket Adam left for us, complete with a bottle of Prisoner Wine and little stuffed animals for the kids. Just enchanting. One last comment ... the home movie theater was beyond any reasonable expectations and the sound and picture were incredible. We are truly spoiled. No kidding, the place was just incredible and we are so thankful to have found it!! Cheers to anyone who stays here, but we will be back! Most sincerely, Tina and Bob Laskow New York City

It was a genuine pleasure to stay in Adam’s home and we will be looking forward to returning. We have also referred our family and friends! The location is very close to Vail Village and the home is a gorgeous and very luxurious log cabin. Grocery stores are also close by in West Vail. Adam is a wonderful host and his attention to detail was very much appreciated! His warm hospitality was a nice gesture since Adam provided all needed information and he took the time to come meet us in person. He also welcomed us with an immaculate clean and very well equipped home. He even included very nice fresh flowers in every room and we all loved the Christmas trees and pretty holiday decor! The decoration of the home is beautiful and our friends and family enjoyed the outdoor jacuzzi, movie theatre with comfortable seating and the latest technology video and sound, outdoor barbecue, and indoor game room with boot warmers after a day of skiing. The beds were also very comfortable. Adam had someone ready to assist as needed and there is plenty of space throughout the home to enjoy a warm fireplace and feel at happy at home at Vail, Colorado! Thanks Adam and Best of Wishes!

Highcliffe Lodge is a luxurious home base from which to explore the splendors of Colorado! The lodge had spectacular views, a secluded feel, and access to a wide variety of activities, from hiking trails for all levels to zip line and rafting adventures, all of which we took advantage of. For less active days, nearby Vail Village and Frisco offered great restaurants and shopping. The lodge also was well appointed with games and a theater and lots of outdoor space to relax. We had a great family trip thanks to our gracious host and his AMAZING home! We would love to visit again in winter.

This is a beautiful property. Very clean and well equipped. The finish out and decor is beautiful and the beds are very comfortable. We had a large group of kids and adults and everyone had a great time and there was plenty of space to spread out. The outdoor fire pit is a nice touch and the heated garage/playroom and the theatre room are perfect for staying in without being bored. The location is very close to Vail village, and the private parking pass makes it easy to park and walk to shops, restaurants, ski, etc. There is a heated rack for skis and boots in the garage which is very useful. We cooked breakfast or lunch most days and the kitchen had everything we needed. Will definitely stay again!

Home: This is a gorgeous log cabin with plenty of room for a group. Thoughtful layout with comfortable gathering spots. Well appointed from top to bottom. Extremely clean and comfortable. Loved the game room and outdoor areas too. Location: Less than 10 minutes to get to a guaranteed parking space in Solaris Parking Garage in the center of Vail. Super convenient to restaurants, shopping and Gondola One. The parking space was easy to get to and appreciated by my whole group. Host: Adam is by far the best host I have ever rented with. Very responsive and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed.
