This place needs some TLC—the dishwasher was broken, the hot tub was overrun with bacteria and one toilet was also broken. Vacasa (property manager) was informed about toilet and hot tub and couldn’t get anyone to come out in the 4 days/3 nights we were there. The outlets are literally coming out of the wall and there is no WiFi. Plus there was no remote for the upstairs tv in the bedroom rendering it useless.

Great home in a great location

Stayed in this cute home so we could ski at Aleyska. It's an easy 12-minute walk to the slopes, which was fantastic. The home is well-stocked with everything you need and there's plenty of space for everyone. Very cozy. We docked stars only for cleanliness, because the rugs in the living room and bathrooms were fairly dirty. Other than that, our stay was great!

Cabin is cozy but very well used. It was as pictured but pretty dirty and in need of maintenance and updating. We struggled to find outlets that worked and there were lamps placed in locations without power available. We also could not figure out how to control the heat. No thermostat's were present, knobs on baseboards were turned all the way down but heaters continued heating and home was quite warm.

Loved the rustic, homey warmth of the property. We were here for a wedding at the resort but wanted family time in a quieter setting. Convenient location. Beautiful scenery. We had a great time.

Terrible property

There was NO HEAT. It’s mid-May, still in the 40’s, and there was no central heat, the living room fireplace did not work, and there was only one tiny space heater. The hot tub and garbage disposal did not work. The overall maintenance on the property was bad, it needs work. Horrible experience all the way around.

Great location older ski chalet

Overall met our needs. Happy surprise to have three bedrooms but one has totally open upper ceilings so room noise level is high. Hot tub was nice and location is great. Kitchen could use more mixing bowels and cook wear but overall met our needs. Needs updating and TLC but overall good for family with dogs:)

ok

The place was not very clean, the carpets in the bedrooms were dirty, we found socks and trash behind the tv upstairs and the side table. The upstairs bathroom has ridiculous amounts of dust on the wall and in the corners. The hot tub was dirty and not functional (already received a credit due to not being able to use it ) The tv remote batteries were dead and we had to swap them with another remote that had the batteries chewed on. Some of the dishes were dirty when trying to cook. No wifi, not enough trash bags for the stay and the dumpster was full and unusable when we tried to take the trash out so we had to leave it in the house. The grass around the property is not maintained either. The place has alot of charm for someone who is used to living in Florida, but that is about all it had going for it.

Lovely stay

We enjoyed our stay very much. It was close to several excellent restaurants and activities. We would make a couple suggestions. One being offering outside seating on the deck to enjoy an evening cocktail. The other would be a hair dryer. We could not find one. Perhaps it was stored somewhere else we didn’t look. All in all we enjoyed your home very much.

Not much to love. Filthy dirty. Had to wash rugs and bedding before using. We were there 4 nights and were given one towel per person for the whole stay. Not a great way to start out vacation. There was internet when we first got there and then shut it off for some reason. Will not recommend to anyone.

Review April 2023

Our stay was cut short due to no hot water, home was fairly clean but needs some deep cleaning (mopped floors, dusting/cob webs, surfaces washed). A deep cleaning would hopefully help the smell of “older home” go away too. Bedding needs updating too; has holes in both bed linens upstairs. Good points; large enough to have a family visit with space for everyone; view was beautiful; location is fantastic!

Nice chalet for long ski weekend

Chalet is comfortable and spacious, and it was a short walk to the ski hill and brewery. Kitchen is dated but functional. Hot tub was great! Gas grill was promised but not present, and customer service was unresponsive. Somewhat kid friendly but gas fireplace in main is definitely a hazard. Recommend a baby fence of some sort for infants or young toddlers.

Needs up keep

Grill was solid mold, kitchen oven had mold and was very dirty. So did not feel like we could cook anything there. Floor in downstairs bathroom was vinyl and laundry he are in doorway was all ripped up. Fireplace in bedroom didn’t work and no heat in downstairs bathroom. Holes in doors.

Nice place but needs a little work

Toilets didn’t work the best. The stove was really dirty but the hot tub was nice and clean. The beds old and noisy if you moved in them. The fireplace in the bedroom didn’t work and the listing needs to be updated to say gas fireplace only. A boot dryer would be a nice addition for winter activities.
