This was our 2nd stay at Ruskamp and it did not disappoint. We had a group of 9 this time. Plenty of room for everyone in a beautiful location. Christie is always responsive and the house is very clean. We will definitely be back. Thanks for another great family trip!

Despite the listing and pictures both showing a hot tub. This property didn’t actually have one. We were traveling with five teenagers and six adults, all of which anticipated sitting in a hot tub outside after skiing. It was very disappointing. Other than that everything as shown in the description was accurate. I was very surprised to find VRBO doesn’t offer assistance with an inaccurate listing.
