Only problem we had was the amount of stairs. Okay for younger visitors but hard on older patrons. All was new looking and very clean, both bed rooms are on second floor.

We are sorry to hear that your stay did not meet your expectations due to the property having stairs. We would note that the stairs are featured in 6 of the 16 property photos which must have been overlooked. We are proud of the space we provide and that each of the other reviews we have reflect 10/10 rating. We appreciate the feedback and will look for ways to better reflect that the home has stairs.

This is the second time I’ve stayed at the mountain house. It was as fantastic this year as it was last. The home is very clean and fully equipped with whatever we needed. The host Shannon is super responsive and easy to deal with. I highly recommend this home. Hope to be back next year.

Best trip ever!

The house was amazing from the time we got there until we left. The hosts provided so many amenities from shampoo to coffee pods! We loved the fire pit in the snow! The kids loved the game room. The beds were so comfortable! Perfect distance to Gore mountain. Can’t make one complaint. The hosts were so accommodating. Thank you for opening up your home. We plan to rent again!

July 4

We had a wonderful stay at Shannon's house. We've rented a few houses in Garnet Hill, and this was the nicest one yet. It is a brand new construction, and everything in the house was new and nice. I had to do some remote work, and unlike other houses we've rented, the wifi was fast and reliable. It also had a nice new smart television so my wife and i could relax and watch movies after our daughter was asleep. Will certainly rent again!
