Family Ski Retreat Walk to Shuttle Schweitzer Mtn

It was a great place- well utilized space to allow plenty of room for visitors. Nice little add ons like the foosball table nice area for family games. great kitchen- well supplied! The host was very attentive to us checking in on any needs and making themselves avaiable for any concerns. Even though we didnt get to ski at Schweitzer (poor snow conditions)- the house allowed us to have have a great time together as a family! We'll likely be back in a future year when snow is better!

Booked for a ski trip with my young kids and my parents. Check-in was really easy and having a large garage with a boot dryer for gear was helpful.With only 6 people, there was plenty of room to spread out. The kids loved having bunk beds! Overall, the furniture and finishings were of a higher quality than you would normally find in a rental.The kitchen is stocked with pots/pans/utensils/dishes so we were well-equipped to make breakfast & dinner before and after skiing. There are even some basic ingredients (flour, cinnamon, coffee, sugar) in the cupboards.James was super responsive (probably the most response vacation host I've had) both before and during our trip. He was able to remotely adjust the heat in the bunk room when a previous guest had left the thermostat remote without batteries, then came by the next day to leave some for us. My clarifying questions about the house were answered within hours (during ski season when he's a backcountry guide, nonetheless).Train noise: proximity to train tracks is fully disclosed in the description and there are white noise machines and ear plugs provided. The noise didn't overtly bother my kids (the bunk room is closest to the tracks) but they did wake up a lot earlier than normal. I'm a lighter sleeper and ear plugs don't stay in my ears, so the trains often woke me up at night. Some of the freight trains pass by every 30-45 min. The upside is that the Schweitzer shuttle is close, so it was still a great overall stay.

We loved our stay here, the photos do not do the home justice! We had three generations in the cabin while we skied up at the mountain. We all had our separate spaces with full bathrooms and a large dining table open to the nice living room. The Starlink internet was great and the large tv in the living room was great for catching the foot ball game. The cabin was very clean, comfortable beds, fully stocked kitchen. Easy access to and from the mountain. We look forward to another stay should we be back in the area.

I flew up from Colorado for a weekend trip with my family and we had a great time. The house layout was perfect for coming together but with enough space between rooms for everyone to recharge in between dinners/activities. The host was super responsive and helpful as well.
