The cabin is absolutely beautiful! It is well stocked with extras most VRBOs don’t include. We loved the pizza oven and fire that we were able to enjoy on a warm February Saturday! The hot tub was awesome after a day of boarding and skiing. There were plenty of family games and books that we enjoyed. The host was a great communicator and answered any questions quickly. They even helped us figure out a lost suitcase that they didn’t need to help with. Amazing place and hosts. Thank you. We would love to return annually.
