Moving Mountains Is The Ultimate Vacation Rental Company For A Colorado Ski Trip

If the idea of planning a ski trip is daunting, you’re not alone. For those who don’t frequent the slopes, there are quite a few things—lift tickets, equipment rentals, transportation—to consider on top of figuring out where to stay. But if you’re headed to Colorado for some fun in the snow, you’re in luck, because there’s one vacation rental company that will handle all the logistics for your next vacation.

Founded in 1997, family-owned and locally operated Moving Mountains manages more than 200 properties across Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Steamboat Springs, and Vail. But what sets the vacation rental company apart from others is its guest services team. Offering more than just an exceptional portfolio of luxury homes, you’ll also be assigned a dedicated specialist to help plan your trip, alleviating the stress that comes with tackling an unfamiliar destination.

Securing lift tickets, reserving lessons, arranging private ground transportation, and booking activities like snowmobiling or ice fishing are just the tip of the iceberg of what the Moving Mountains team can assist with. Planning to cook throughout the trip? The refrigerator and pantry can be stocked before your arrival. Rather leave dinner to a professional? They’ll search for available private chefs. Want to get pampered? An in-home massage appointment can be made. Worried about altitude sickness? Oxygen concentrator rentals are available. Need equipment, but don’t want to deal with any lines? Moving Mountains partners with vendors like Ski Butlers who will deliver gear straight to your door and fit you in the comfort of your own space. Traveling with little ones? Request for baby proofing or rentals for cribs, high chairs, and other items that you had to leave behind at home. But the best part? Specialists live in the immediate area, so feel free to ask for local tips and tricks. And since many are avid skiers or snowboarders themselves, they’ll likely be able to give you the lowdown on which runs are the best for your skill level.

When it comes to the homes, you can find anything between three-bedroom condos to 13-bedroom estates. There’s no shortage of attractive properties, ranging from a traditional alpine aesthetic to more modern offerings, and some benefit from ski-in, ski-out privileges, but most have access to complimentary shuttles that take guests around the resort. While the amenities will differ depending on the property you choose, some of the features you can look forward to include wood-burning fireplaces, private hot tubs, and outdoor grills.

But if you’re looking for Moving Mountains’ latest crown jewel, consider booking the Chateau at Casteel Creek. Surrounded by more than 450 private acres, this 30,000-square-foot, nine-bedroom estate is one of the most over-the-top properties in the company’s portfolio. In addition to plenty of space, guests will also enjoy a theater with plush seating; panoramic vistas from the 200-foot-long, cantilevered viewing bridge; a secondary living area that doubles as an ice cream parlor; a game room complete with billiards, darts, and a piano; a bar inspired by the original Silver Dollar saloon in Jackson Hole, Wyoming; and even a wellness center with a fully equipped gym, solarium with massage tables, sauna, and indoor-outdoor pool. When you’re not reveling in the palatial home’s amenities or out on the slopes, guests will also have access to the exclusive Coyote Lodge, a sports and entertainment facility within the gated enclave that boasts a 60-foot-long lap pool, game and arcade rooms, 65-foot climbing wall, golf simulator, indoor tennis court, tubing hills, and groomed trails for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. Talk about a true mountain retreat.
