Edwards: A Bustling Town Center with Exclusive Neighborhoods

Situated west of Vail and Beaver Creek, Edwards is a dynamic and highly sought-after community, attracting both full-time residents and second-homeowners. Known for its exceptional accessibility, Edwards provides seamless connections to Vail, Beaver Creek, and Arrowhead Ski Resorts, as well as Red Sky and Sonnenalp Golf Courses and Eagle County Airport. With over 72 acres of hiking and biking trails, world-class fishing on the Eagle River, and a well-connected bike path extending to Vail and beyond, Edwards perfectly captures the essence of Colorado’s outdoor lifestyle.

At the heart of the town lies Riverwalk, a vibrant shopping and entertainment district along Highway 6, often considered Edwards’ town center. Here, residents and visitors enjoy an eclectic mix of restaurants, boutique shops, a movie theater, a hotel, and specialty retailers offering everything from sports gear to jewelry and gourmet groceries. Essential services, including banks, dry cleaners, salons, a park, and a range of professional offices, are all conveniently located. With its scenic setting along the Eagle River, Riverwalk also features a charming outdoor venue for summer events.

Just steps from Riverwalk, residents have access to an even broader array of conveniences, including additional dining options, medical offices, pharmacies, gas stations, and the local post office, making daily life effortlessly convenient.

Within Edwards, several distinct neighborhoods offer a variety of lifestyle options. Homestead is a family-friendly enclave featuring a mix of single-family homes, townhouses, and multi-family residences, surrounded by more than 400 acres of open space with hiking and biking trails. At its core is the Homestead Court Club, a recently renovated, 37,000-square-foot health and racquet facility, offering indoor and outdoor tennis courts, basketball and volleyball courts, a fitness studio, a weight room, and childcare services.

Singletree, another desirable neighborhood, is a golf-course community positioned on the north side of Edwards. Anchored by the private Sonnenalp Golf Club, this exclusive community features a Tom Weiskopf-designed golf course, tennis courts, pools, a fitness center, and an elegant clubhouse with dining and social spaces. Primarily composed of single-family homes and duplexes, Singletree offers quiet streets, expansive south-facing views, and one of the largest residential footprints in the valley.

Edwards serves as the central hub for the surrounding communities, with a year-round calendar of cultural events and activities. The Saturday Farmers’ Market attracts both locals and visitors during the summer, while wine tastings, live music, and seasonal dining experiences keep the town vibrant throughout the year. Home to top-tier schools, the Vail Valley Medical Center, Shaw Regional Cancer Center, and Colorado Mountain College, Edwards offers a thriving community beyond the traditional ski resorts. No matter which neighborhood you choose to call home, everything you need is within easy reach.
