Overall the place was ok. Biggest problems were the heating. The nest thermostat would change the temp on its own. It dropped the temp to 62 degrees at night which is just too low with kids. It also unevenly heated the house, some rooms were freezing while others were sweating. It made it rough to sleep for some members of our party. The water temperature was also an issue. The sink and bath got hot water but not the showers. That was a bummer. Over the place was ok but probably overpriced given the limitations. Also, be aware that there’s two bedrooms upstairs and the only bathroom is in the primary bedroom so at night you’d have to go into a bedroom if you were in the guest bedroom upstairs or walk all the way downstairs.

While our families created unforgettable memories together during our ski vacation, we cannot say the same about our experience with the cabin itself. Unfortunately, the property fell far short of expectations, and numerous issues made our stay less enjoyable than it could have been.To begin, the kitchen was inadequately equipped. There were no basic condiments, minimal containers, no foil or wrap, and shockingly, no toaster. The knives were so dull they were nearly unusable, and there were no wine glasses available—an oversight that significantly impacted our group dinners. Additionally, two burners on the stovetop didn’t work, which made preparing meals a challenge.The cabin’s amenities were also subpar. The hot tub was not cleaned before our arrival, the fireplace was nonfunctional, and while the barbecue appeared new, it was in poor condition and looked older than it should have. The mattresses were extremely uncomfortable, and the TV’s volume was barely audible, making it difficult to relax indoors after long ski days.Connectivity was another problem. The WiFi was spotty at best, an inconvenience for those of us who needed to stay in touch or check weather and trail updates.It’s worth noting that the joy of our trip came entirely from the company we kept and the activities we enjoyed outside the cabin—not from the accommodations themselves. This property needs significant improvement before we could recommend.it to others.
