Wildly Luxurious Vail: Western Lodge, Epic Cinema + Free Village Parking!

Highcliffe Lodge — Vail’s Wildly Wonderful Mountain Hideaway

Western soul. Serious luxury. An amazing private cinema. Hot tub. Firepit. Your own Solaris garage. And a private mountain in the backyard. Welcome to Highcliffe Lodge.

Set on a private acre just minutes from Vail Village, Highcliffe is anything but an ordinary mountain rental. Think Yellowstone meets Ralph Lauren, with a little Hollywood thrown in. Massive hand-crafted logs, Colorado stone, soaring windows, roaring fireplaces, spectacular Gore Range views, and Western-inspired interiors create a place that feels both wildly authentic and wonderfully indulgent.

And then there’s the fun. Highcliffe has the kind of amenities that make everyone want to stay home: an incredible private cinema carved into a Western mine-shaft-inspired space, complete with 8K projection and Dolby Atmos sound; a separate game room with billiards, ping pong and foosball; an oversized moss-rock firepit; a hot tub beneath the stars; and multiple terraces made for morning coffee, sunset cocktails and serious mountain gazing.

Come for Vail. Stay for Highcliffe.

Highcliffe is only about five minutes from Vail Village, yet once you arrive, it feels like you've escaped somewhere completely private and wild.

The grounds are filled with mature aspens, gardens, giant natural boulders, stone patios and winding paths. Follow the masonry trail up the private mountain behind the house and discover three spectacular stone terraces overlooking the Vail Valley and National Forest.

They're perfect for sunrise yoga, afternoon lounging, sunset drinks—or doing absolutely nothing at all.

And yes, there's an antique wagon.

Because why not?

The Ultimate Movie Night

The private cinema may be one of Highcliffe's biggest surprises.

Inspired by an old Western mine shaft, the theater combines serious technology with serious atmosphere. 8K projection, Dolby Atmos surround sound and a uniquely immersive setting turn movie night into an event.

Grab some popcorn, pour a drink and settle in. You may discover that nobody wants to go to the movies in town anymore.

Room for the Whole Crew

Highcliffe comfortably sleeps up to 12 adults in five bedrooms, making it ideal for families, multi-generational vacations, ski groups, milestone celebrations and friends who want to travel together without feeling like they're on top of one another.

The bedrooms are individually styled with Old Hickory furnishings, luxury Shifman mattresses, SONY 4K TVs, large windows and generous storage.

Three primary bedrooms feature king or queen beds and lofted spaces, while two additional bedrooms are especially great for children, teens or singles.

Bathrooms are finished with plush towels, Molton Brown toiletries, a steam shower and high-quality hairdryers.

The chef's kitchen has everything you need for everything from pancakes in pajamas to a full-on dinner party. A wet bar, generous dining spaces and multiple living areas make it just as easy to spread out as it is to gather around the fire.

And if you'd rather let someone else do the cooking, a private chef can be arranged.

Outside Is Pretty Spectacular, Too

Highcliffe's one-acre setting is a destination in itself.

Explore the private paths. Wander through the aspens. Find the waterfall. Climb the mountain. Stretch out on a stone terrace. Soak in the hot tub. Fire up the firepit. Watch the stars.

Or simply grab a glass of wine and watch the mountains change color as the sun goes down.

The Gore Range is right there doing what the Gore Range does best.

Winter? Bring It On.

Skiing is easy from Highcliffe.

Your complimentary Solaris garage parking space puts you right in the heart of Vail Village, and our family-owned ski rental partner is conveniently located next to Gondola One. They can store rental or personal equipment slope-side, so your skis can be waiting for you when you arrive.

Back at Highcliffe, ski racks, boot warmers and clothing warmers take the sting out of coming home after a big powder day.

Then it's hot tub, firepit, dinner and cinema.

That's a pretty good ski day.

Vail Is Right Outside the Door

When you're ready to explore, you're minutes from Vail's legendary restaurants, shopping, skiing, hiking, biking, fishing and endless mountain adventures.

Gore Creek and nearby East Vail trails offer even more opportunities to get outside, while the East Vail Racquet Club offers tennis, a heated pool, indoor gym and coffee shop for a nominal daily fee.

But here's the catch:

You may not want to leave.

Highcliffe has a rare quality that's difficult to create—and nearly impossible to replicate. It doesn't simply give you a beautiful place to sleep. It gives your group a place to hang out, reconnect, laugh, play, relax and make memories.
