This Ritz-Carlton is tucked away from the crowds (that\u2019s a good thing), and Bachelor Gulch itself carries slightly less name recognition for those not familiar with the area, despite it being skiable with an <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/guide\/epic-ski-pass\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Epic Pass<\/a>, connected to the more-known Beaver Creek mountain and home to the new kid-friendly McCoy Park.<\/p>\n<p>First opened in 2002, The Ritz-Carlton Bachelor Gulch looks like it has always belonged on the mountain. it&#8217;s crafted in the log cabin style you\u2019ll see at many national park lodges across the country. However, outside of the wooden beams, you will hardly be roughing it, as you\u2019ll have all the trappings of a high-end hotel housed within that rustic-looking exterior.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-19345235 tpg-figure\">\n<div style=\"padding-top:0\" class=\"jsx-185092990 full-width-auto-height-image\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box;display:block;overflow:hidden;width:initial;height:initial;background:none;opacity:1;border:0;margin:0;padding:0;position:relative\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box;display:block;width:initial;height:initial;background:none;opacity:1;border:0;margin:0;padding:0;padding-top:66.6875%\"\/><noscript><img alt=\"\" sizes=\"100vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-22.jpg?width=640 640w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-22.jpg?width=750 750w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-22.jpg?width=828 828w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-22.jpg?width=1080 1080w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-22.jpg?width=1200 1200w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-22.jpg?width=1920 1920w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-22.jpg?width=2048 2048w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-22.jpg?width=3840 3840w\" src=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-22.jpg?width=3840\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"responsive\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;bottom:0;right:0;box-sizing:border-box;padding:0;border:none;margin:auto;display:block;width:0;height:0;min-width:100%;max-width:100%;min-height:100%;max-height:100%\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/noscript><\/span><\/div><figcaption class=\"jsx-19345235 figcaption\">SUMMER HULL\/THE POINTS GUY<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><a id=\"location\" class=\"jsx-133228390 anchor\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"jsx-133228390\">Location<\/h2>\n<p>Bachelor Gulch is a part of the Beaver Creek mountain and area.

Here, muffins are $4.50 and breakfast burritos are $16, which is about as good a deal as you&#8217;re going to find on the property.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-1121724257 tpg-gallery\">\n<p>1<!-- --> of <!-- -->6<\/p>\n<p>SUMMER HULL\/THE POINTS GUY<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Buffalos<\/h3>\n<p>Buffalos is a casual restaurant, but it still gets very busy. Make reservations well in advance if you want to dine here. The menu includes items such as a buffalo burger, chili, mac and cheese and an amazing, warm, cowboy cookie served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The food is solid, even if prices are higher than you might wish, at $23 for a bowl of chili and $14 for kids meals.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-1121724257 tpg-gallery\">\n<p>1<!-- --> of <!-- -->4<\/p>\n<p>SUMMER HULL\/THE POINTS GUY<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Wyld<\/h3>\n<p>Next up on the list of dining options at the Ritz-Carlton is Wyld. This restaurant focuses on locally farmed meats and vegetables, accompanied by seafood. The same advice applies as at the other restaurants \u2014 make reservations and be ready for a large bill. That said, we did find Wyld to be the easiest of the three restaurants to get into.<\/p>\n<p>The salmon cones ($27) are great if you want some fresh and flavorful fish without getting overly stuffed. If you&#8217;re a bit hungrier, the kid chicken tenders are a reliable hit ($16), while the ramen bowl was packed with flavor, though potentially a bit too spicy for some.<\/p>\n<p>Service here was quite slow on our recent lunch visit, which is a common theme during peak times at many resorts right now.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-1121724257 tpg-gallery\">\n<p>1<!-- --> of <!-- -->5<\/p>\n<p>SUMMER HULL\/THE POINTS GUY<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Sakaba<\/h3>\n<p>Sakaba, a sushi restaurant, is truly amazing and not to be missed. It\u2019s probably one of my favorite meals we&#8217;ve had in the area.<\/p>\n<p>Reservations are a must here, and you should make them before your trip. In fact, that&#8217;s true for all the restaurants as there are not enough seats on busy nights to meet demand unless you are eating very late in the evening. Book all of your on-property dining on Open Table well before your trip.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-19345235 tpg-figure\">\n<div style=\"padding-top:0\" class=\"jsx-185092990 full-width-auto-height-image\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box;display:block;overflow:hidden;width:initial;height:initial;background:none;opacity:1;border:0;margin:0;padding:0;position:relative\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box;display:block;width:initial;height:initial;background:none;opacity:1;border:0;margin:0;padding:0;padding-top:66.6875%\"\/><img alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"responsive\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;bottom:0;right:0;box-sizing:border-box;padding:0;border:none;margin:auto;display:block;width:0;height:0;min-width:100%;max-width:100%;min-height:100%;max-height:100%;background-size:cover;background-position:0% 0%;filter:blur(20px);background-image:url(&quot;data:image\/jpeg;base64,\/9j\/2wBDAAYEBQYFBAYGBQYHBwYIChAKCgkJChQODwwQFxQYGBcUFhYaHSUfGhsjHBYWICwgIyYnKSopGR8tMC0oMCUoKSj\/2wBDAQcHBwoIChMKChMoGhYaKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCj\/wAARCAADAAQDASIAAhEBAxEB\/8QAFQABAQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP\/xAAgEAACAgEDBQAAAAAAAAAAAAABAgMEAAURMQYHEiEi\/8QAFQEBAQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAgP\/xAAZEQACAwEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAgERMQP\/2gAMAwEAAhEDEQA\/AKdsdWty9PMtkwWjG0YWSzXjmkPlBE53d1LH6Zj7J524xjGNuaXkE4dq0\/\/Z&quot;)\"\/><noscript><img alt=\"\" sizes=\"100vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2021\/03\/20210318_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-39.jpg?width=640 640w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2021\/03\/20210318_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-39.jpg?width=750 750w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2021\/03\/20210318_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-39.jpg?width=828 828w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2021\/03\/20210318_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-39.jpg?width=1080 1080w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2021\/03\/20210318_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-39.jpg?width=1200 1200w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2021\/03\/20210318_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-39.jpg?width=1920 1920w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2021\/03\/20210318_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-39.jpg?width=2048 2048w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2021\/03\/20210318_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-39.jpg?width=3840 3840w\" src=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2021\/03\/20210318_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-39.jpg?width=3840\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"responsive\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;bottom:0;right:0;box-sizing:border-box;padding:0;border:none;margin:auto;display:block;width:0;height:0;min-width:100%;max-width:100%;min-height:100%;max-height:100%\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/noscript><\/span><\/div><figcaption class=\"jsx-19345235 figcaption\">SUMMER HULL\/THE POINTS GUY<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Sakaba has both indoor and open-air seating, but regardless of where you sit, you\u2019re in for a treat with the meal.

Also, in some parts of the hotel, trash would linger around well into the next day.<\/p>\n<p>For a hotel going for more than $1,000 per night, there are some spots where it may not 100% meet expectations until staffing levels are able to ramp up a bit more.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-19345235 tpg-figure\">\n<div style=\"padding-top:0\" class=\"jsx-185092990 full-width-auto-height-image\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box;display:block;overflow:hidden;width:initial;height:initial;background:none;opacity:1;border:0;margin:0;padding:0;position:relative\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box;display:block;width:initial;height:initial;background:none;opacity:1;border:0;margin:0;padding:0;padding-top:66.6875%\"\/><img alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"responsive\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;bottom:0;right:0;box-sizing:border-box;padding:0;border:none;margin:auto;display:block;width:0;height:0;min-width:100%;max-width:100%;min-height:100%;max-height:100%;background-size:cover;background-position:0% 0%;filter:blur(20px);background-image:url(&quot;data:image\/jpeg;base64,\/9j\/2wBDAAYEBQYFBAYGBQYHBwYIChAKCgkJChQODwwQFxQYGBcUFhYaHSUfGhsjHBYWICwgIyYnKSopGR8tMC0oMCUoKSj\/2wBDAQcHBwoIChMKChMoGhYaKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCgoKCj\/wAARCAADAAQDASIAAhEBAxEB\/8QAFQABAQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAb\/xAAfEAABAwUAAwAAAAAAAAAAAAABAAQFAgMGESEIEhX\/xAAVAQEBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEBf\/EABkRAAIDAQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAECAAMRMf\/aAAwDAQACEQMRAD8ApfHqCi8zwp7K5QwbyUj9K\/aLi9QPc0gUEbI1s7J6e9REU1kXeRJtcHATP\/\/Z&quot;)\"\/><noscript><img alt=\"\" sizes=\"100vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-14.jpg?width=640 640w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-14.jpg?width=750 750w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-14.jpg?width=828 828w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-14.jpg?width=1080 1080w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-14.jpg?width=1200 1200w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-14.jpg?width=1920 1920w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-14.jpg?width=2048 2048w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-14.jpg?width=3840 3840w\" src=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2023\/01\/20230109_Ritz-Carlton-Bachelor-Gulch_SHull-14.jpg?width=3840\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"responsive\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;bottom:0;right:0;box-sizing:border-box;padding:0;border:none;margin:auto;display:block;width:0;height:0;min-width:100%;max-width:100%;min-height:100%;max-height:100%\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/noscript><\/span><\/div><figcaption class=\"jsx-19345235 figcaption\">SUMMER HULL\/THE POINTS GUY<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><a id=\"accessibility\" class=\"jsx-133228390 anchor\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"jsx-133228390\">Accessibility<\/h2>\n<p>The good news is that there aren&#8217;t a lot of stairs to contend with at the Ritz-Carlton Bachelor Gulch.
