About the host
Hosted by Richard Grodahl
The house is co-owned by the Grodahl and Vogel families.The Grodahl's live in Denver, Vogel's live in Lone Tree. We attended CU Boulder and developed a love of the Rockies that we have passed down to our children. Our children especially enjoy spending time together in Vail. Our familes love to ski, hike, and bike. Vail is the perfect mountain destination! World class skiing and a terrific village setting make Vail our home away from home.
Why they chose this property
We wanted a home in a great location with plenty of room for family and friends. After visiting different mountain towns throughout Colorado and Utah. Vail quickly rose to the top of the list. After staying in many locations throughout Vail, we found East Vail to be the best for many reasons. Easy freeway and frontage road access, convenient Town to Vail bus access, nearby grocery store, Gore Creek and trail access are just a few of the features which make Bighorn Lodge a great choice for vacationing.
What makes this property unique
Run, bike, or cross-country ski along beautiful Gore Creek. Grab your fly rod and cast a few in nearby Gore Creek. Catch the FREE town bus for a short ride into Vail Village or 2nd base area, Lionshead. Relax and enjoy this comfortable, peaceful, and beautiful family home.
