Perfect, Peaceful Getaway!

We absolutely LOVED this perfect slice of heaven right by the pool, with a lake view! My kiddos and I had an impromptu trip out to visit my terminally ill mother — and I was looking for a place for us to be able to relax, decompress, and have a little fun together after intense visits. Well, we were just SO thrilled with this perfect gated community and the best apartment/condo location in the entire place (in my humble opinion)! The first floor unit is steps away from the pool and has a beautiful view of the Lake! The unit was pristine, clean and very welcoming!! Everything we needed was there! My kids (13 & 10) loved the pool, lake views and the proximity of restaurants and grocery store! We also cooked at home! We had fun playing board games that were also in the unit! Truly, this place was a slice of heaven for us to escape and catch our breath—and make some positive memories! Communication with the owners/manager was amazing! Super responsive and accommodating, especially since we booked on short notice! We had everything we needed prior to arrival and the description of everything for our stay was perfect! We felt like we were staying at a friend’s place! We will definitely stay here again! 10/10 recommend! I’m sure it’s absolutely amazing in the winter too—for those who ski/snow board! Thank you for the amazing hospitality and clean, beautiful, and perfectly set up unit! We had an incredible stay!

A peaceful lakefront gem!

My husband and I worked remotely while our daughter was down the road at a sleep away camp. She stayed with us for the first night and got a little pool time in before we had to bring her to camp. The pool is literally right outside of the unit. With a great hot tub and plenty of sun chairs and tables, we spent a lot of time by the pool. The back patio of the unit was well appointed with a comfy couch and nice grille. I spent most days out there with my coffee and laptop. The boulder lake club is a 5 minute walk down the trail and you can rent water sports equipment including sailboats, pontoons, kayaks and more. The club is also next to a nice little lakeside restaurant with live music and food and drink. The food is nothing to write home about but it’s convenient. We bought groceries and cooked most of our meals at the condo. The kitchen was relatively well appointed with plenty of new cookware, flatware, cutlery and pantry items like oil and a few spices. The coffee maker was really nice and there was coffee, kpods, sugar and creamer. We bought olive oil, kosher salt, and coarse ground pepper to add to the pantry and left it for the next guests. The kitchen could use a couple sets of tongs and a knife sharpener but we cook a lot so it probably wouldn’t bother most guests. Everything was clean and comfortable with plenty of towels and linens. There were no beach towels so that might be something you’d want to bring with you. Highly recommend.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this property because of the incredible views of the lake from the back patio and nearly the entire unit. We love how fun the pool is in the summer, the watching the leaves change over the lake from the patio in the fall, how close we are to great skiing in the winter, and the proximity to numerous all-year-round activities! We really consider this to be our favorite Retreat!
