High elevation, great view, wonderful property ! We have stayed in this property twice and will stay again in the future. Property management team was outstanding, above and beyond expectations when we had to come early due to the recent hurricane.

Thank you so much! We love having returning guests, and we are so glad you have enjoyed your experiences at Buckhorn Lodge! We'd love to have you back anytime! - BRMR
We had several family and close friends that wanted to get away for an extended weekend of skiing. The house fit our needs perfectly! We had ample space to hang out together but not all be right on top of one another. Our children’s ages range from 7-15, and there was plenty of space as well as activities in the house to keep everyone entertained. A great property to rent!!

Thank you! We are so glad that Buckhorn Lodge worked for your entire group! We'd love to have you back anytime! - BRMR
First off, we had a fantastic time at this property. The location to the resort is amazing. My family has been coming to this area during this time of the year for well over 10 years. This is definitely the most well appointed rental we have ever stayed in. Our only negative was the trash situation. However it was not enough for me to deduct any stars.
