Great location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location to the slopes! <5 minute walk. Ski locker was helpful. Condo could use an upgrade but everything was functional. Only feedback would be more comfortable beds. Otherwise, we really enjoyed our stay and would come back again.

Great location, if wifi doesn't matter

The best thing about this property is the location. Walking to the lifts was our #1 priority. Parking is right in front of the building. Ski lockers are inside on the first floor, and they had plenty of room for our gear. This is a first floor unit, so no stairs- but it's by the front door to the building, and with the unit's thin door and walls, you hear all the noise of others coming and going. The dated features of the condo are acceptable since you know that up front and everything functions. My only problem was the unit's wifi, which did not function during our trip. I wasn't able to ski this trip, so I planned to work during the days- which required wifi. I spent a good part of the first evening and second morning on the phone and sending emails to the tech help/property management people trying to get it resolved. Ultimately they gave me log in info for a wifi in a property nearby, which worked but was slow. The management and tech people were all great and tried to help, but it was ultimately a bigger issue with equipment outside buried under snow and ice. The others in my group weren't affected so much and they were all very pleased with our location.

This condo was beyond filthy and the pictures of the advertised condo look far from how we found the condo upon arrival. All 3 beds white covers were visibly dirty, used multiple times without being washed. One of the beddings had BLOOD STAINS on it! After contacting the host Vacation Rental Collective, they said they will send someone to come clean/change them out next day. Someone came next day just to drop off ONE of the beddings by the front door. We had to change it out ourselves. We then found more clean sheets and also changed them out. Kitchen was very dirty, there was food residue on the mittens, utensils, greasy pan, kitchen towels were dirty and food leftover from previous guests in the fridge. The bathrooms were dirty, hair in bathtubs and on the floor. Smoke detector was broken off and part of it was on kitchen counter broken. It took 3 days for someone to come and look at it and then they couldn't fix it because of unknown to me reason. One of the bar stools leg was broken and it was a miracle that my kid wasn't hurt when he almost fell off of it. The couch had a lot of stains and under couch and beds we found old t-shirts, shorts, empty bottles, xmas wrapping paper, toys and much more. I don't mind outdated places, as long as they are well maintained and clean. This condo is far from it. The host did refund us cleaning fee of $300 but I would never stay there again. I highly recommend looking for different condo in that area, as the location is very nice.

Filthy and Disgusting

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I have never done a review before, this is the first time I have and unfortunately it is not a good one. While the location was great for our vacation, this property was filthy and disgusting. Every rug in that place was filled with dirt and was coming apart, there were open outlets that are a huge safety hazard. There is dust everyone, cobwebs that are a year old, all of the dishes and pots and pans were dirty, I had to rewash everything I was using. The wifi did not work the entire time we were there and the property manager puts the owness on us to contact the company and get someone out there (not convenient). The furniture is dirty, the bedsheets and blankets and pillow cases were filthy and smelly, the walls had what looks like feces on it in several of the rooms. The shower curtains are brown and stained, the closet doors are broke, should I go on? I cannot believe this is how a property management company or an owner would leave their investment.

We had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Communication was prompt and thorough. We were a short walk to get on the mountain and would stay all day. If you're coming to stay to enjoy the outdoors and need a place to crash comfortably, this place is at the top of the list.

I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Long walk to slopes, but definitely doable even in ski boots! Living room isn't large enough for 6 people - would love a chair in the primary bedroom that could be moved to living room to watch TV together. Kitchen had everything we needed.

I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location for National Mountain Bike competition at the resort. Also, great location as central hub for hiking, biking, etc. The condo was a little dated but most definitely served all of our needs while we were there. We had no issues with arrival or departure. The condo was clean and well stocked with the essentials (TP, soap, shampoo, paper towels, dish washer detergent, etc.)

Needs Updating / Small for family of Four / Great Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great Location. Unit is pretty small in the common areas. Not much space. Bedrooms were very large with small bedrooms. New carpet and floors that were nice. Living room closets and ski storage were packed with various things. So we were unable to utilize those spaces with our ski gear. Dining area was tight with table and chairs that are too big for the area. Kitchen could have been better stocked. Place was clean, just 2 small for 2 adults and 2 teenagers in the common areas. Again, the location was great. First floor, easy access. Able to walk to the lifts. Can ski almost all the way back if you know the trail behind the units.Price was fair.The property manager lady was super nice. Wish I could remember her name, because she deserves positive recognition.

Cozy

For the price paid, the condo was decent. The biggest issue for us was the poor internet connection. The book in the condo says it is spotty, and that was an understatement. We are business owners, so even on vacation we have to do business. It was almost impossible due to the internet. If you need good internet, find another condo. Otherwise, it is dated, they have done some updates, but the mattresses are old, and carpet was well used. If you need a place to sleep, shower and make meals, it is a good value for the price. Easy walking to resort and very nice views from the patios. All appliances worked. Good for a family of 4. There were a few issues, but I pointed them out to the management company to fix for next renters.
