Take a family vacation that plans itself

Take your family on a mountain getaway, and let Vail Mountain Lodge & Spa (one of our favorites) take care of the details. With the Mountain Family Fun package, which runs through September 5 and starts at $445 per room/per night, families will enjoy a fun range of activities: access to the two-story rock climbing wall at Vail Athletic Club plus two semi-private climbing lessons, two Spa treatments or two rounds of golf, one dinner at the Terra Bistro for four, and–to start each day off right–a free breakfast, also at Terra Bistro. The package runs for up to three nights. For more information, visit vailmountainlodge.com.
