Vail mountain biking

Saturday, June 13th, 2009

Vail mountain biking is finally underway in Vail Colorado. We’ve had quite the wet and cold spring, but the sun is finally out this weekend and the trails are drying out. Not only is the sun out, but so are the animals. On our recent mountain bike ride we saw a beaver in the river near the Antlers pool, a fox 200 meters to the west of the Antlers and four different deer up on the hill. Chris R.

“Antlers” Siting at the TEVA Games

Saturday, June 6th, 2009

There is plenty to do and see here in Vail this weekend with the TEVA Games, USA Climbing and SERAC Adventure Film School. One of the perks of being a host property is the opportunity to be a part of the action by setting up a tent on Meadow Creek Drive. With the Antlers out and about, there was bound to be followers…

Our Antlers are a BIG hit!

We have plenty in stock so just ask for one when you check in.

Vail Gore Creek

Monday, May 25th, 2009

Although the hussle and bussle has slowed down, Gore Creek has been getting higher and higher everyday. Thanks to our stellar location, we have one of the best views right in our backyard. River rafting is definitely an activity not to be missed while in Vail.

Vail Lodging Improvements at the Antlers at Vail

Wednesday, May 6th, 2009

As the snow melts and the sun plays peek-a-boo, the Antlers at Vail is still at work. Besides staying open and preparing for the summer season, our need to keep the Antlers in full bloom consists of remodeling. Currently, one of our 1 bedrooms is undergoing construction in which there will be a new kitchen, bathroom vanity, and bathroom. Because the construction continues, there are only pictures of before and now…

Thursday, October 9th, 2008

The Colorado High Country exploded with color once again this past September/October . Usually all the leaves are down in the Vail Valley by the second weekend in October, but we have a good grove of aspens across Gore Creek from the Antlers that are still hanging on.
