The condo was very clean, in a great location, and communication was great and made everything easy to navigate from start to finish. My only minor complaint is that the bed in the primary room was very firm.

Aly, a clean space, a convenient location, and communication that actually makes things easier rather than harder is a combination that sets the tone for the whole trip. The feedback on the bed firmness is noted and appreciated. Hope the area pulls you back again sometime.

This condo was a delight to stay in. Two couples stayed for four nights. The unit is very well appointed, especially the kitchen. We enjoyed the patio and even though it’s on the corner of the building there was privacy. It’s an easy walk into town. The underground parking is a plus, especially when it snows. One person in our party used the pool daily and found it to be good. Finally, communication with the host was thorough.
