About

The Gilded Spruce has sold Christmas in the heart of Vail Village for well over 30 years, and it still occupies its original spot in the Sitzmark building at Checkpoint Charlie. The shop was started by the Town of Vail's Santa and is owned today by Nathalie Roy.

It is made for people who love Christmas in any month and for families who want a shop children will enjoy. It is also a good stop for a gift from Vail that isn't a logo sweatshirt.

On the shelves

The shop is stocked with Christmas decorations, ornaments and handcrafted holiday scenes. Arrivals it has shown include handmade Father Christmas figures dressed in real fur, woolens and tapestry, one-of-a-kind angels, Mark Roberts collections, nutcrackers and vintage music-box televisions.

More than Christmas

Other holidays get their turn, with Easter, Halloween and Thanksgiving decor and outdoor and garden pieces for summer. For skiers there are ski-themed signs, coasters, magnets, cards and postcards, and socks, which the shop calls a big seller.

Finding it

The shop is in the Sitzmark building on Gore Creek Drive, at Checkpoint Charlie. The website shows only a sample of the stock, so call if you are hunting for something specific; the owners say they have plenty of resources for tracking pieces down.
