Thank you for the kind words! We're so glad to hear the location worked well for you and that the cleanliness met your expectations. It’s great to know you enjoyed the decks—they’re one of our favorite features too! We’re always happy to help, and we truly appreciate you choosing to stay with us.
Great location and amenities with the facility - tennis/pickle bar courts, an excellent resort gym, pool, etc.. Since north of the city, much easier access to great biking, hiking trails and an easy drive into the city when desired. Kitchen well stocked, excellent water pressure, clean and comfortable rooms. Top notch entertainment systems. Definitely will stay again

Reviewer Comments:
We stayed a week at Tamarron Pinecone 801/803. The condo was perfect - 4 nice bedrooms, 3 baths. We spent a lot of time in the two beautiful decks enjoying the mountain air. The condo was well equipped with kitchen appliances, etc. we ate several meals on site and the food was very good. The was our granddaughter’s favorite. One note: there were little food supplies except some coffee packets. You’ll need to bring all your spices, condiments, etc. The coffee maker uses ground coffee, not pods. That would be something to note on the condo description. Can’t say enough good things about our stay or VRC. VEC’s custimer service and responsiveness puts to shame the larger rental groups.
