Family Ski Trip 2025

The property was immaculate, high end smart home technology! It had a beautiful view of Whitefish Lake below the cabin. Mule Deer were all over the property and we woke up two mornings with them right outside the bedroom window. Three Golden Eagles frequented the large pine tree about 100 yards down the mountain as well. I would certainly recommend this place and personally we will be back.

Whitefish Family Trip

We had the best time and really enjoyed our stay. I do think it would be a good idea to have basic items such as coffee, shower soap, etc at the house. It's a high end home and the rate is high enough to have these things. Some information on how the thermostats work too would be helpful. The upstairs (where most of the beds are) was extremely hot during the trip.

Response from VrboOwner on 9 September 2023
We are so sorry but coffee is not included in the starter pack we provide, Deborah. As for the shower soap, that should have been there. Please know our team did their best to address this if they were made aware of it. Noted as well on instructions regarding the thermostats. Feedback like yours truly helps us improve anything that's within our control, so we appreciate it. Thank you so much for the 5-star review and we hope to host you again!

This an absolutely gorgeous home!! The views through the pines down to the lake are stunning! Home is just beautiful with fantastic amenities. Very clean and the property is just beautiful. Chipmunks and deer visit all day too! The only disappoint was with property management. The smoke alarm went off twice in one night, waking everyone, with us having to override system ourselves. Notified them, but they had little concern. Never sending anyone out to look at system. The only time we were contacted by them (within 15 minutes of arrival at home) is they wanted us to make sure to put down trash down at curb the next morning. Of course, we had no trash since we had literally just arrived. Would definitely recommend this home for a memorable stay!!
