Like 90% of Vail Valley lodging options, we do not have air-conditioning. Generally, the mountain climate does not require air conditioning. Summer days are warm and nights cool off nicely. For those unusually warm days, our staff can provide a fan for your convenience. Drawing room curtains with direct sun exposure also helps keep the rooms comfortable during the day. Our pools, room patios and balconies are great places to enjoy the great weather we receive here in the Colorado mountains.

Pets are not allowed in rooms, common areas or in parked vehicles. For those of you traveling with pets there are several places in Avon to board them. Many will require proof of vaccinations or require a physical examination and shots administered prior to boarding. It is advisable to call ahead to make boarding reservations. Contact the concierge staff to assist you at 970-476-4405 or oncierge@sandstonecreekclub.com

If you are an exchange (RCI, II, Royal Holiday, etc…) you will need a confirmation letter from your exchange company.

Please be aware that the purchase of a Guest Certificate must be done by the exchange membership holder and cannot be done at Sandstone Creek Club.

Yes, a limited number and only allowed in some loft and one bedroom units. There is a charge of $20.00 per night for a rollaway. Due to the limited number of these beds, we allow only one per unit. Please call our reservations department to reserve a rollaway prior to your arrival. Available on a first request basis. If using a rollaway for a guest means the maximum unit occupancy will be exceeded, we will have to deny the request.

While we have cribs for rental, they are not a ‘Pack-n-Play’ setup. If you and your child are used to the ‘Pack-n-Play’, you should bring it along. We also have hi-chairs available for rental.

They have more options for you to consider if you do not wish to bring your own infant gear or use ours. The number for Baby’s Away is (970)328-1285. We suggest calling them prior to your arrival so the gear will be here when you arrive. If you wish to use our cribs or hi-chairs, please call reservations at (800)421-1098 to reserve.

The upstairs portion of the Clubhouse is a nice place to hold gatherings that could not be held in your room due to a large number of people. However, because the upstairs is utilized for guest functions, priority for use goes to Sandstone Creek Club guest activities. To see if the space is available for a private function, you must contact Bill Vancuren at 970-476-4405. Please be aware that our policy for use of the Clubhouse over holidays has changed. Due to the demand for that space during holiday periods, there will be no private parties allowed unless you are the only making a request. Shared use will be required based on the size of the groups making the requests. A $100 deposit is required to book the unit and is refundable after the space is determined to have been cleaned by the guests. Any clean-up done by Sandstone Creek Club staff will be deducted from the deposit.
