Great place

Easy check in/ out, everything available was great. My family played some games and did a puzzle available at the property. Only issue was the double pocket doors for the 2nd bedroom were really stubborn to open/ close, so that room was never fully private.

Family Vacation

Stayed for a few days for a family vacation. Condo was as described, bunk room was great for 2 kids. Little kitchenette with 3/4 size fridge and freezer, microwave, toaster oven, and dishwasher, plus every sort of small appliance you might need! Condo came with access to all Shanty resort pools which my kids loved. Owner very responsive to questions. Wonderful relaxing stay!

Ski time

Nice little condo for a quick weekend getaway. About what you would expect for this age of unit. The kitchen is almost nonexistent for cooking. Overall, not bad. It was a place to lay our heads.

Mostly what we expected

Overall, our stay was just fine. We were basically looking for something close to ski, and we knew these buildings are old. This unit has not had noticeable upgrades. Two things that stood out to us were the lack of a coffee pot and the size of the refrigerator. We are big coffee drinkers and took along our favorite coffee grounds. While the listing says there is a coffee maker, it does not mention that it is a Keurig. There were a few k-cups supplied; however, had we know the situation, we would have taken more k-cups or our French press or a coffee pot. Even having one of the inserts for the Keurig which allows you to brew using coffee grounds instead of a k-cup would have been helpful. The other surprise was the size of the refrigerator. It is more of a dorm size, under counter refrigerator. It was just much smaller than expected. Because of COVID, we had taken along the food we intended to eat for 3 days. It is winter, so we were able to use our cooler outdoors to keep food cold and safe. There was not a useable freezer as it was full of ice buildup. I had pre-made some big salads which I did put in the refrigerator; sadly, when we pulled them out to eat for lunch, they were frozen. The queen size mattress has a significant dip in the middle. We put a pillow between us to keep from rolling into each other. The unit is quite well equipped, and the owners are responsive. Overall, the condo was about what we expected, and the location to skiing was what we were looking for and what we received.

Very cute little condo. Doesn’t sleep 6 comfortably. The mattresses were pretty awful especially the pull out. WiFi was awful. Overall our stay wasn’t bad though.

Excellent spot for a short trip

My wife & 2 teen/tween kids spent 3 nights here for skiing and had a great stay. Everything was as-described or better. The place was warm, quiet, and comfortable. Hope to return some day in the fall for golf. Cheers!

Friendly owners, nicely equipped

The condo was the perfect size for my family of 5. The bedrooms weren't huge, but big enough for a weekend getaway. We did have to drive from the condo to the ski slopes since the distance was a bit too far to walk with equipment, but it was a 1-minute drive. Owners were very friendly when we had questions and difficulty finding the unit. Would definitely come back.

Condo was not terrible but average condition at very best

Condo had absolutely no upgrades since early 80's, best guess. Toilet ran constantly and I was the only one that could get the plunger to seat. refrigerator was very small like you would have in a camper. Stove the same situation as refrigerator. There are a number of closets you cant use because they say owner only. View is nice off the back deck. If it was priced right I would not complain, because you get what you pay for. However it was over priced for what you get. Others in my family had another condo that was identical layout and very nice with all upgrades for close to the same price.
