Balcony dinners surrounded by trees, with the trail to the village right there- that's the kind of balance that makes a mountain stay special. We love that it became your favorite gathering spot for family time and evening drinks. Peaceful and connected all at once. We'd absolutely love to welcome you back!

We had a great stay at this house. We were a group of 4 adult women. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was nice and we really loved the seating area in the main living room as we like to have long conversations when we get away on these relaxing trips. We would definitely book this house again. It was a little hard to find in the dark when first driving up even thou it's a large house.

The house was just as pictured! A very close drive to the village and in a nice quiet neighborhood. Even the adults loved the play room! The house had everything we needed and the hosts were extreme helpful and communicative. Would return!

Beautiful home!

We celebrated my mom’s 60th birthday with our new baby and our family. The home was beautiful, spacious and so cozy for our trip December trip. My only concern was the street and driveway getting in. The street is very narrow and not maintained which would have been very difficult if it there was snow. The driveway is also narrow and steep. Just something to keep in mind when planning a trip! Other than that, we dice them 10/10!!

Gorgeous house- Amazing & Attentive Property Managers

The space and location were wonderful! We came here for spring break with 2 other families. All the kids stayed in the kids room that was equipped with 2 sets of bunk beds and trundles, a comfy sofa, tv and table. The primary bedroom was beautiful and bigger than your standard hotel room! All beds were comfy and the whole house was clean. If I had to critique something, it would be the lack of kitchen utensils. I cooked every meal and I just wished it was fully equipped with good knives, more pots and pans, colanders, baking pans, and a spatula! Nonetheless, I would highly recommend this house and we are looking forward to returning!

Beautiful home and restorative stay

I booked this house to steal my parents and sister's family away to spend with me,husband and two teens. This home delivered on all that was listed with Avantstay, and we were beyond pleased with the property and the host/management. They were incredibly proactive on their hospitality and helped with a couple minor issues we had expediently. The house is beautiful, clean, comfortable and I really liked how open and minimalist the decor was. A perfect spot for a family retreat to rest, relax and have some fun. We all said we would love to come back. If I were to make any recommendations it would be to simply add another stockpot to the kitchen and a night light in the master bath. But literally everything else was perfect.

Perfection -truly luxury

This property was hands-down AMAZING! We needed a little mountain get-away, and just happened to find this place online. From the moment we walked in, we felt at home. It was JUST LIKE THE PICTURES and even better. In fact the pictures don't do it justice. The house had everything we needed! We even found Christmas decor in the closets. The lighting and home decor made it so warm and cozy. We had sunny days and one torrential pour. All days were so cozy in this property. The communication was perfect. I never needed anything because avantstay explained everything so well. The check-in was super easy, check out was reasonable and easy. They were extremely attentive and everthing was easy-to-use. One of the playrooms was in the first level garage. At first I thought it would be too cold to use, but we just kept the back door open so the heat from the house warmed it up, and it was perfect. Between that room and the upstairs playroom, the kids had plenty to do to keep occupied. Avantstay even stocked the rooms with toys, crayons, paper, etc. We needed for NOTHING. I recommend this place for a mid-sized group with kids (ages 4 to 17). The town is beautiful, the activities are great and I can't speak highly enough of this experience. Thank you Avantstay!!
