Vail, Colorado
First up on our list is Vail, Colorado. The third-largest single-mountain ski resort in the country, Vail Ski Resort is unlike any other! Our fave part? The Village of course ❄️ Vail Village uniquely takes after European villages as opposed to the more 19th century American style seen in other nearby resorts, which makes it the perfect European escape without even having to leave the country!
Skiing not your thing? Don’t fret – Vail also has some of the highest-rated snowmobiling and snowshoeing activities in the country!
