Inside this single-level vacation rental, discover a well-equipped, full kitchen for making meal prep a snap, an accommodating dining table for dinners or game nights, and a living area with a plush sectional and a TV for streaming all your favorite channels. This space is also home to a fireside workstation with a monitor for setting up your laptops.

Outside, this spacious property is where you'll find a picnic table and a gas grill for summertime cookouts as well as a creek and trail access. When the sun sets, gather around the firepit to share stories, make s'mores, and pick constellations out of the night sky.

There were more steps in booking this VRBO due to the third party management which included a couple phone calls from me. However, the place was a nice home base for skiing at Gore Mountain, since it’s only a 7min drive. We got snow the night we drove up and the drive way was already plowed and sidewalks were shoveled/salted!
