The enchantment and magic of the words "ski in ski out" evoke the greatest of emotions in any resort enthusiast. A property that is truly ski in ski out means snapping into your gear and skiing down to the lift, watching people make turns from your balcony, lunch at the condo and skiing directly up to the door of your building with no walking involved!
Which properties at Keystone are ski-in, ski-out?
The only 2 buildings in Keystone that truly are ski in ski out properties are Lone Eagle and The Timbers. These properties are situated on the edge of the River Run ski run, directly below Ina's way and above the River Run Gondola and Summit Express. Staying here means no walking to the lifts and no walking back to the buildings - you ski directly up to your door!
Which properties are just a short walk to the ski lifts at Keystone?
There are many other "basically ski in ski out" properties in Keystone that are extremely close and a very easy, flat, non-treacherous walk to the lifts. The "basically ski in ski out" properties to the lifts on the Mountain House base area are at Slopeside and Chateaux DuMont – you can be out your front door and at the lift in under two minutes walking time to the Peru lift.

Situated right behind these buildings are Silvermill, Mill Creek, Expedition Station, Dakota, Buffalo as well as The River Run Townhomes.
