Beaver Creek, although an excellent ski area, is much smaller and much less challenging. You'd likely want a car to get too and from the other ski areas in the corridor, which negates the value of the ski in ski out principle if you are traveling between areas.

I haven't stayed at the Beaver Creek property but the Westin Whistler is pretty solid.
