There’s a school of thought which maintains that ski hotels are best located slopeside, ski-in/ski-out if possible — and there’s something to that. But if you’ve spent time at Vail Village during peak season, you’ll appreciate the relative seclusion of a place like the Lodge at Cordillera, which is located a few minutes to the west of Vail proper, in the decidedly more rural town of Edwards.

That’s seclusion as in peace and quiet, not remoteness. It’s an effortless shuttle ride to the resorts at both Vail and Beaver Creek — and for guests of the skinny-ski persuasion, it’s possible to hit the Nordic trails from right outside your front door.

As for the Lodge itself, it’s a striking Alps-Rockies hybrid, equal parts chic château and rugged Western mountain lodge. The focus is on quality, not quantity; the 56 rooms are given plenty of space to spread out, and the creature comforts are as fine as the visuals are rustic. The cuisine is suitably sophisticated, with European fine dining at one end and that famous Colorado beef at the other

Not for nothing is the word “spa” right there in the name — for successful skiing, hot baths and massages are as vital as the snow. And like any mountain resort worth its salt, the Lodge at Cordillera is equally appealing during the offseason, with particular emphasis on golf: Cordillera has four first-rate private courses, plus an Irish-style pub for a bit of the old après-links refreshment.
