Here is a photo of the Avon Wyndham under construction taken from in front of the Westin Riverfront resort. Just to the right of center in the picture is someone sitting on the bench at the shuttle stop. The Riverfront gondola is just past the Westin building that is off picture to the right.

By comparison, the hike at Vail from the Lionshead parking garage to the gondola is more than twice the distance, and it takes about 10 minutes in ski boots.

With the prevailing northwesterly weather flow, the ski conditions at Steamboat are generally better than central Colorado, and the Wyndham Steamboat points chart is definitely more attractive, but for those who stay at the Avon Wyndham to ski, it is built in a good location.

I rent my condo (1 bedroom/ 1 bath) for $3,500/wk - but it is ski in/ski out Vail gondola, not get on a bus; or walk to the service gondy at BC (and it is not a short walk in boots).

Just curious, from Christmas to first week of April, what's your weekly occupancy rate for the Vail condo at that price? Do you only rent by the week or can it be broken down into partial weeks like on VRBO?

I spoke to a VC. Beaver Creek is only presidential units (which makes sense given the area/market). At this point in time, Beaver Creek is ONLY available to Presidential owners. It will "open up" to the "normal rules" but for the moment, only Presidential accounts can reserve units.

Well, there must have been a breach in reservation security! I was able to make a full week reservation in February and a 3 day reservation in March in that first morning after availability was visible online. Had to call a VC to do it, but was able to do so while being a lowly NON-PR owner!

Perhaps I was one of the few that snagged the small allocation of PR inventory available in advance of when it's released to the general membership (forget when those dates happen - is it 30 days out?).

I don't think ALL of the units are Presidential RESERVE units. They're all Presidential units, but not necessarily PR units. Only the PR units would be held to the 30 day mark. It is possible that the non-PR units are gone now, or maybe it is possible that someone didn't realize they were all PR units and shouldn't have been made available to non PR owners.

According to the the "Resort Report" section on the website, Wyndham Beaver Creak is ALL Presidential Reserve.

You're right, I missed that! I guess the VC just missed it when pagosajim called in.
