The property was perfect for our family and friends to enjoy a Christmas ski vacation. Just steps to the gondola in Lionshead with a cozy atmosphere and wonderful wood burning fireplace to return to after a long day of skiing. Kitchen was well equipped and Heather, the hostess, was fantastic to communicate with. We will totally be renting again in the future.

Chateau du Soleil is a great rental. Fabulous location just down from the slopes. We had a large group and it was the perfect mix of multiple bedrooms for privacy, but a large living area where we could all hang out. And Heather is great to help with anything you need. Highly recommend!

We had a great stay at Heather’s house in Vail. We loved that it was ski-in/ski-out. The house had everything we needed from kitchen appliances, Wi-Fi and extra towels/linens.
Heather met us at check in and gave us a tour of the house and was readily available for any questions during the week.

They say location, location, location is what sells real estate - well, it also makes for a perfect vacation home, and this one has it, right in the heart of Vail mountain and a short walk to the gondola and Lionshead. We stayed a week with four adults and five kids under six, and this home met everyone's needs. A great backyard full of snow provided ample playing space for our Florida kids who wanted to avoid coming inside and big windows for the parents to supervise. It was cold outside but always warm inside, with hot showers when needed. The fireplace was great and well-stocked for evening fires. Everything was immaculate, and the beds were comfortable. But the best part was the easy walk to and from Lionshead. Oh, and those two bags of ice we purchased for the four adults who like adult drinks - they remained outside the whole week because the ice maker was always full. The living room was super cozy, with comfortable couches and amazing throw blankets. When the kids were not watching TV the adults enjoyed playing our tunes through the home's blue tooth speakers, which were fantastic. Our host Heather was just marvelous and extremely helpful with anything we needed leading up to and during our stay. I even think she had something to do with the snow I requested. If you go to Vail - which you should, don't pass this home up!!

My family stayed at the Chalet for 5 nights and loved it! The Chalet has everything you need, a exceptional fireplace, plenty of room, and close proximity to Lionshead Village. Heather is a exceptional host! I would highly recommend staying here!!

Great vintage home surrounded by megamillion mansions. We loved the location although it was more than a few steps to gondola. Really enjoyed the views, watching the snow falling and the fireplace.

Amazing property with a great location!
I didn't quite know what to expect as the photos of the property are from the winter, and we were renting in the summer. The photos accurately describe the interior (which was clean and charming), but the beautiful back yard with a stream was completely unexpected. We spent many evenings having dinner at the picnic table on the lawn.
The location is second to none with easy access to Lionshead village and quick access (maybe a few hundred feet) to the ski/ hiking/ biking trails which are visible from the parking spot (as a bonus, there is enough space to park 4 cars).
Heather was extremely responsive and a wonderful host. We really look forward to returning next year!

Vail Ski chalet fabulous!
This chalet adjacent to the vail lionshead ski slope and gondola was just right for our group of 7 adults. Heather was a prefect host and had everything in the home that we needed, including tp/Papertowels/firewood/fireatarters/spices and oil and much more- which was very nice. Ski decor, fireplace and large TV made for a great ski apres feeling. Walk to slopes along road took 7 minutes in ski boots(be careful it is slippery when road is wet and snowy), 10 minute walk to Lionshead and 30 minute walk to vail village along gore creek made this house easy access by foot to all of Vail. 4 parking spots give the option for easy parking as well. We loved our stay at this loving home and would definitely stay here again.

The property was exactly what we expected based on the pics, description, and prior reviews. Our family of 9 adults had more than enough room to spend the week together. We would not hesitate to stay again at this property.

Perfect Summer Getaway
This was our 5th summer vacation at Chalet du Soleil and it was wonderful as always. It is perfect for our family of 10 and feels like our second home. We love the convenient location, the great views, and the beautiful creek flowing through the property. Heather is always so pleasant and easy to work with.

We were extremely pleased with our stay in Vail this year. The house was very spacious, filled with all the essentials plus more in the kitchen (we were surprised the fridge was even stocked with things like jelly!). Heather was an extremely easy host, the 2 pack n plays provided for our kids were in excellent, brand-new shape, there were tons of blankets, pillows, towels, and fans/heaters to meet everyone's needs! The construction across the street didn't bother us at all, and in fact, the folks there were very friendly with great neighborhood tips for us tourists! The walk into/from Lionshead involves a STEEP hill, which was very hard to walk up with our kids in a wagon. Far too steep for them to walk themselves and we had to take turns pulling them, it was quite difficult! But beyond that, we had no complaints. Would absolutely stay here again! Thanks, Heather!

Great Spot
Really awesome spot in Vail. My only recommendation would be for anyone staying here is to have your rental skis delivered to the house. The slope is just a few hundred feet away and easily accessible if you have skis with you. Thanks for the hospitality!

Our stay was fantastic! The online description adequately describes this house. The home is very simple, but has everything you need. The kitchen was small but well equipped. The beds had good bedding and pillows, and sufficient bathrooms. The only thing we would have changed would have been not having an outdoor hot tub (but we knew that when we booked it...) and the 10 or so minute walk up the mountain after eating dinner in town. (Without a car there is no easy was to get home from Lion's Head other than to walk up the ski trails....or walk the long way around on the road. ) Even so, I would def. recommend this house.

Relaxing Getaway
We had a lovely stay! It was our first trip to a VRBO since Covid began, and we were all a bit apprehensive, but this home felt Covid proof! It was welcoming, clean and cozy. Heather was a pleasure to work with... she even provided my son with an extra computer monitor so he could work from home. We'll be back!

Perfect
A very special place. Heather was amazing. She had robes for us, a few breakfast items knowing that we were getting in very late, chocolates on our nightstand, wood for fires, soft throw blankets, soaps, and even hand sanitizers. We would walk just three houses up to the end of the road to ski down to the lifts. It was cozy and very much what you think of as a ski cottage. We cooked almost all of our meals and had the time of our lives with our adult children. Heather made this a Christmas for our family to always remember. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for sharing your special place with us!!!!

Great place, will definitely return
Perfect location and size, could easily fit 20+ people in the home if needed. We had our entire family there for a week with plenty of room. Easy to get to Vail Village after a day on the mountain. For the skiers who know Vail, ski down Born Free, exit left, click off skis, 5 min walk to condo. Very convenient to get on/off hill, no shuttle/parking needed. Will be back in summer. Thanks for the hospitality.

Authentic Cozy Cabin
Heather and her Mother are awesome! The place you are renting was their weekend getaway since the late 60's. Its updated where it counts, there is plenty of room to spread out and it feels like you are on an actual ski vacation in the mountains. Its a perfect getaway and not a long walk to the slopes. As mentioned by a previous renter, if your looking for the Ritz, this is not your place. If your looking to gather invaluable family moments, welcome home!

Great House for a Vail Vacation
This was our fourth year staying at Chalet du Soleil and it was another wonderful summer vacation in Vail. We keep coming back because it is the perfect house for our family of 10 and you couldn't ask for a better location. It is comfortable, in a beautiful, peaceful setting, and has everything that we need. We feel like it is our home away from home. We love working with Heather and her mom and it was great to see them again. We hope to return next year.
