Fair enough.  I should have been more clear.  I've got lodging at Park Hyatt Beaver Creek and will have a car, so I guess tell me what to do in Vail / Beaver Creek area.

I checked the Vail Summer thread but found a lot of covid era discussion and decided to not muddy up that thread with a bump.

Vail
Dinner at Matsuhisa 

also like the Austrian place Pepi's

Sunset beers on the deck at Garfinkel's or late night beers at Red Lion

Deca Bol for bowling 

rent mountain bikes 

easy vail falls Or pitkin trail for hiking 

You don’t have to go to Vail.  Lots of good places in Avon and Edwards.  Check out Juniper in Edwards

Dinners - 

Sweet Basil

Mountain Standard

Matsuhia (seconded)

Chasing Rabbits (kid-friendly)

Deca+Bol (kid-friendly)

Lunch - 

Big Bear Bistro (grab sandwiches to go)

Garfinkel's on the deck

Back patio of ritz carlton 

To do:

Check the vail event calendar (lots of summer concerts and shows)

River rafting/Golf/Fish/Biking/Hiking/Bikes

Top of Vail (adventure ridge if you have kids going)

Day trip to Glenwood springs

I like getting pizza at Vendetta's at Vail.

We used to apres at Pepi's.  Rod Powell was entertaining as the acoustic singer -- he could play just about any song you could name.  He died of Covid.  Had a lot of good times at Pepi's

Minturn Country Cub was always fun with a group.

Got a buddy who spends summers there. I’ll reach out for recs. Lots of high end places for sure. 

Restaurants: Grouse Mountain Grill, Golden Eagle, 8100 Mountainside


This weekend is the Go Pro Games in Vail.
