Comfortable, cute townhouse

We had a nice visit; the house is conveniently located near the Big Powderhorn lifts. Individual heat control for each room was wonderful. Nice location for town and Snow River.

Awesome UP Ski Vacation

Property looks to be freshly updated. Super clean with all the amenities +. Great location to the main lodge. Would certainly rent again if we're skiing big snow country next year!

Ski Weekend

We were there for a long ski weekend. Helena allowed us an early check in. Place was recently renovated, beds were comfy, ample seating, good wifi. Asked to have door between units open, responded right away, parking area was plowed and shoveled twice while there. Plow/maintenance fellow very friendly and helpful. Could use a couple more pots/pans and some hooks in bedrooms for hanging ski clothes. Will not hesitate to stay there again

Convenient to Big Powderhorn Skiing!

Two families with kids from 6-12 stayed for a ski trip to Big Powderhorn! The rental was perfect for our getaway, close to the hill and the right amount of space. Great kitchen setup and spacious bedrooms. Easy check in and out, overall really pleased with our stay!

Please get a new couch! It’s like sitting on bricks!

Place is super, grade location, beside the couch! I have to say, it’s probably the most uncomfortable couch I ever sat on! Please get a new one!

About the host

Hosted by Amanda Fadely

Host profile image
I grew up in the south, and have since traveled extensively around the world. Some of my most memorable trips were to the Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan to support rocket launches! This property location in the UP is one of the hidden gems of the United States, I feel very fortunate to have found it and I hope you love it as much as I do.

Why they chose this property

The sense of peace, quiet, and natural beauty in this area is surreal. The ultimate getaway from the go-go-go life, yet there are still plenty of activities and fun day trips nearby!

What makes this property unique

Drift-Away Escape was remodeled and furnished with a chic style that is uncommon in this area of the UP. We decided that when we seek the tranquility that this area offers, we want to feel a little bit pampered too! We hope you will enjoy all the special touches we designed just for you!
