Family Ski Christmas!

We have been going to Purgatory for Christmas with the kids for seven years. This year my parents were coming in from New York and we needed a larger place. What a great stay! There was a tree up and decorated and lights outside, plenty of room for Grandma, Grandpa, Mom, Dad, and two teens. The pups loved the space and the yard to play in. Every detail from the tree to the chocolates on the pillows and even dog bowls made this stay one of the best Christmas’s we have had yet. We will definitely keep this one on our favorites from now on!

Awesome house!

This house is so awesome and the back yard is incredible. The back yard is so beautiful and relaxing. We have young children and with supervision the backyard was great for them to play around. The house is exactly as it looks, and equipped with everything you need. It was very clean and comfy. The bathrooms even have shampoo, conditioner, and body wash! I was a little worried that it didn’t have AC, but honestly it cools down enough in the evening that we didn’t even need it. We definitely will stay here again, we didn’t even want to leave!! Thank you for a great place!
