If you want the most peaceful location 10 minutes from Vail or Beaver Creek then this is the perfect place. Minturn is a cute little town with a gas station, a few good eating options (Rocky Mountain Taco, Magustos makes great pizza, and the Thai Kitchen) and the Eagle River is right in your backyard.
This is actually 2 cabins located at the end of a driveway. The first has 2 nice bedrooms, a full kitchen and cozy living room with a nice eating table. Right out the sliding back glass doors is a heated patio with a perfect after ski hot tub. Off to the right is the 2nd cabin, a cozy fully private master suite with its full of windows overlooking the patio, a snow covered mountain and literally the eagle river about 10 feet away. If it was not so cold I would have slept with the windows open to hear the sound of the flowing rapids. And everything is closed off so you never see a neighbor.
One day the snow built up on the patio and I contacted the VRBO page for the property manager. Within minutes Kelley the owner's brother showed up and figured out that a chair was blocking the sensor and problem was resolved immediately.
My wife who does not ski, dropped my son and me off and picked us up at the skier drop-off at the mountain every day. She enjoyed the home so much and wished she never had to leave.
We will definitely be back, even in the summer to enjoy all that Vail and BC have to offer as well as the sound of the river while sitting in our private hot tub.
