Winterplace - Steps away from Slopes

Although we enjoyed our 4 week stay very much, this property is definitely showing wear and tear but maybe that’s the norm for skiers. A lot of small things add up to a property that isn’t really cared for. For instance the back storm door is falling apart, the same as it was last year. The cleaning is very much surface although the bathrooms and kitchen were clean enough. The kitchen is well equipped and there are basics like olive oil, salt & pepper, some seasonings left behind for those inclined to cook.

Great property with an excellent location. Tge condo was larger than expected. It was ideal to hop onto the ski slope without have to drive anywhere. The pool and hot tub were very relaxing at the end of the day. Supermarkets and restaurants were very close by. Overall great stay!

We just got back from a great stay here; 3 adult women and 2 little girls. The set up worked out great for us! Our plan was to eat breakfast & dinner in the unit & lunch on the hill. Although the kitchen was a bit small, it was everything we needed; really well equipped with kitchen supplies, cookware, serving ware, small appliances, etc., and open to the living area for apres’ & family time. We always love a wood burning fireplace and wood was plentiful, although naturally we only used it for a few hours in the evening. The online description of the room configuration is not quite how we found it. The Master BR had a king & its own bathroom with full tub & shower. The remaining 2 BRs each adjoined to a shared full bathroom. The bunk room slept 4-5; one bunk with a double on the bottom & twin on top. The second bunk was twin both on top & bottom. The 3rd BR was either a double or queen. The indoor pool & hot tub building were a short walk past the woodshed; maybe 2 min. The in-unit W/D were helpful to dry wet swimsuits & towels. The walk to the slopes was easy, maybe 2/3 minutes. The combined living/dining space was open & roomy. The living space & master looked out over a private wooded area with a small outdoor patio which we did not use. All windows had decent & working shades for light control/privacy.

Very easy check-in with great pre-arrival details, restaurant recs, and contact from the owner. Fantastic location on side of mountain. Unit was fairly clean though kitchen cabinets and drawers could use some attention and some of dishes and pans were dirty. Overall, comfortable unit for 2 families traveling with kids ages 5, 6, and 7. Unfortunately, there was a problem with the seal of one of the windows in the bunk room - we were there during a very windy and cold weekend and it snowed about an inch on the windowsill. We blasted the heat but could not get the temp of that room above low 60’s. Owner mentioned a space heater but didn’t make a difference. Had to relocate the children. Far from ideal situation for the price we were paying. Also, checkout was demanding for both high price of rental w high cleaning fee - we had to start dishwasher on quick cycle (no problem at all), refill supply of firewood from across the parking lot (ok, but odd), and also put in a load of laundry before we left because cleaners had a tight turnaround. Felt like the owner was rushing us out as he mentioned a few times that other guests were coming that afternoon so we needed to be out by 11 sharp (and finished w all our chores by then). Cleaning fee seemed high for all these requests on top of our having to relocate the children for the window issue which led to even more clean up. Unfortunately, never got an apology or acknowledgment of the issue. I understand things happen, but as an owner, you should probably acknowledge that something’s amiss if there’s an inch of snow in the room. Overall though, it was still fun and if location is a priority, it’s a great spot on the mountain.
