We are so happy with the place. Kids love sleeping in the bunk beds. We got everything we need in the kitchen. There were lots of movies to watch in the TV. The house was warm when you started heating up the fireplace. The host was very helpful and even allowed us to check in early and check out late due to some delayed situations. Thank you and we appreciate much of your kindness to us.

The location is great going to the ski field and how easy it is to still pick up some grocery center in the nearby petrol station. The house is also very warm with the fireplaces in the kitchen and lounge so we didnt need to even have the heaters on in each room. We have 5 kids under 6 and 10 adults and we have not even used up all beds and rooms :) Thanks Max for the lovely stay and we will come back again.
