Ritz-Carlton Bachelor Gulch
Avon, CO
Nestled on a mountainside in the Rockies, the AAA Five Diamond Ritz-Carlton, Bachelor Gulch lies between Arrowhead and Beaver Creek ski areas in the Vail Valley.
Outdoors lovers can go snowshoeing or cross-country skiing in McCoy Park, the resort's Nordic Center, or opt for snowmobiling tours that include a delicious lunch.
The resorts's free village-to-village transportation provides service to and from Beaver Creek. But if you have the time and stamina, take the scenic route, skiing all the way from Bachelor Gulch to Beaver Creek.
So that you may devote more time to your romantic winter vacation and less to making arrangements, the ski concierge at The Ritz-Carlton, Bachelor Gulch will store your equipment and prepare it for when you're ready for use. After your day on the slopes, he then has your equipment cleaned and stored for the next time you need it.
Since a romantic winter getaway shouldn't be completely focused on skiiing, the Ritz-Carlton, Bachelor Gulch features a number of packages for couples that include amenities such as a rose-petal turndown, Champagne and strawberries upon arrival, and spa treatments for two. (Note: Not all packages are available year-round.)
Many rooms have private balconies overlooking the mountain and national forest, plus a working stone fireplace to keep you warm and toasty till morning.
