It was not long ago that Edwards and Lake Creek were sleepy ranch communities, lying roughly 15 miles west of the popular ski resort of Vail. Edwards had a gas station, the Gashouse restaurant and not much else. Lake Creek featured a small residential community tucked away in its own idyllic enclave and far removed from any commercial or social offerings. Today, Edwards has emerged as one of the Vail Valley’s most bustling commercial centers and desirable residential neighborhoods.
FARMER’S MARKET
Take a stroll through the Edwards Corner Farmer’s Market Saturdays from 9:00am – 1:00pm,
June 10th – September 23rd, 2023. Enjoy fresh salmon caught by Kaleb Walker in Bristol Bay Alaska and a wide selection of fresh, local produce.
EAT | ZINO RISTORANTE
Zino Ristorante has a long history in Edwards Colorado. Originally opened in the 90s as Edwards’ first upscale dining option, the restaurant took a 7 year reprieve before returning in 2010, to the delight of many longtime residents. When reopening Zino Ristorante, Vail restaurant pioneer Kevin Clair, of Sweet Basil and Mountain Standard, partnered with Giuseppe Bosco, whose restaurant life began in a dish pit in Naples, Italy, at age 15. Try the papperdelle with veal meatballs and pair it with one of their many Italian wines. Enjoy Mussel Madness every Tuesday with 1/2 price mussels.
SHOP | THE RIVERWALK
With multiple restaurants, stores and boutiques, along with countless business services, the Riverwalk has something for everyone in your family — day or night! Spend the afternoon shopping the many clothing and home decor shops. Magnolia Vintage is a a favorite of ours, as they offer a selection of home decor and a beautiful selection of floral arrangements.
EXPERIENCE | 1/2 DAY HIKE
Enjoy a half day hike in Lake Creek on the East Lake Creek trail. This trail travels deep into the heart of the Holy Cross Wilderness. In its entirety, the trail takes you 12 miles up the E. Lake Creek valley to Upper Camp Lake. However, a great half-day option is to hike just under 3 miles to where the trail meets the creek, for a 6-mile round-trip hike.
PROPERTY | 34 WHISKEY RIDGE
It was truly an honor to represent this stunning property in Lake Creek. Overlooking stunning Lake Creek Valley, this breathtaking 12,521sqft estate is truly a work of art. No money was spared when building and designing this home. Situated on 4.5 private, exquisite acres, this architectural masterpiece seamlessly integrates the indoors with the outdoors with ten walls of disappearing glass! The sleek gourmet kitchen is a foodies delight and opens both to a glass breakfast nook and to a gracious family room with fireplace.
