Scout tips
- Some of the rooms are located on the i70 side and therefore may receive some noise from the road
- Underground parking is available on site but it doesn't have the highest clearance - something to think about if you're travelling in a particularly high SUV or with a roof box
- The free shuttle doesn't serve Vail Village in the evenings, but it's within easy walking distance to local restaurants and bars
SCOUT REVIEW
The Wren is a friendly, welcoming condo complex, located on the edge of Vail Village, right next to Gore Creek. Not a traditional hotel, The Wren combines self-catering condos with some hotel style facilities such as heated pools and hot tubs available for all guests. Front desk staff are on hand to help you throughout your stay (although not 24-hour).
The condos at The Wren range from simple studios to spacious three-bedroom units as well as everything in between. These vary in terms of style and modernity but all offer comfortable accommodation at a reasonable price. The condos feature everything you need for a self-contained stay, including full kitchens, comfortable lounges and dining tables, as well as spacious lounges and fireplaces for lovely cosy evenings. There is a great range of condo options, including some with a den or loft, so it's a perfect option for families and groups. As each is individually owned, decor and funishings vary, as does the bedding, so best to advise Scout of any preferences upon booking. Most of the master bedrooms boast a king or queen bed, with a sleeper sofa, or trundles in the den/loft. The larger condos on the top floor boast vaulted ceilings, and often floor-to-roof windows that provide wonderful warm winter light and great views.
Scout can book individual units at The Wren to suit your preferences in terms of decor, bedding and views.
The Wren offers a free shuttle service to the slopes three times a day and you are also within walking distance of the public bus route. Although not located in the heart of Vail Village, there are a number of restaurants and bars within a 10 minute walk of the property. For those with weary legs after a day on the slopes you can easily drive into town and The Wren offers on-site underground parking so you can drive straight to your door.
The Wren is a fantastic option for families and those seeking a good value apartment or condo in Vail, but don't require to be in the heart of the action during their ski vacation.
Who should stay here
The condos at The Wren are great for those seeking simple self-catered ski accommodation in Vail who don't mind a short walk to the main amenities of Vail Village.
Location
The Wren is located on the banks of Gore Creek, on the outskirts of Vail Village. Close to Golden Peak, The Wren offers reasonably-pricecd self-catered ski accommodation that doesn't have slopeside access but is still close enough to the slopes to be convenient for avid skiers. There is also a free ski shuttle service available.

About Vail
If Aspen is Hollywood then Vail is Wall St - popular with the money-never-sleeps-but-it-does-wear-Bogner set. Attracting tens of thousands of visitors a year, it’s quite the place to be seen, and to ski! Luxury is standard at Vail, the pedestrian-friendly village weaves around the buildings and has a wonderful European-style feel to it. The mountain terrain (one of the largest in the world) boasts perfectly groomed corduroy, powder stashes galore, and pristine tree skiing. Team this up with endless accommodation options, easy access from Denver, and one of the best après scenes in North America, it's no surprise Vail is a favourite among local and international ski enthusiasts.
