10 / 10Outstanding·Jan 2026
The house is clean and cozy. Just right for a family trip. Conveniently located to several different skiing locations. The only thing I would add is that I didn't realize this house was a duplex and that would have helped us when we were looking to make sure we'd found the right place. We had no neighbors while we were there, so that wasnt an issue.
8 / 10Excellent·May 2025
More spacious and comfortable than we expected! Foosball table was endless fun for kids. The property is beautiful, especially in the spring. It’s pet friendly so there was inevitable pet hair. The cleaning service was very nice except for a full and moldy coffee pot when we arrived. But otherwise a lovely stay!

The property was clean and had plenty of space for our family of six. We loved the location and would stay here again!
6 / 10Average·Nov 2020
While the unit is nice, there were a few deficiencies that impacted our stay. Upon arrival, we found a rather large tear in the middle cushion of the larger sofa, that we reported on a recorded line. The unit was well cleaned; however, the carpet was soiled and clearly in need of significant deep cleaning or replacement. As a duplex, we were surprised that we got to listen to our neighbors enjoy a movie most of the first two nights thru our bedroom wall. Our shower valve did not function properly as adjusting the temperature was very difficult, resulting in great changes in the water temp with very minor movements in the handle. The door gasket(seal) on the refrigerator was partially loose on the door when we first used it and gradually came completely off the day we checked out.The magnet in the gasket kept it attached to the frame of the refrigerator rather than on the door itself. The door would not seal as a result. I called this deficiency in to the office when it occurred.There was a dehumidifier in the lower bedroom that was clearly needed as I emptied it at least 5 times. There were not enough spare light bulbs as I managed to find the only one when our bedside table lamp blew. The views from the unit were wonderful from the deck. Other than some easily correctable problems, or stay was quite nice.
