A great house to accommodate our big families. House is spacious and have multiple areas for different age groups to hang out. Outdoor jacuzzi is a plus!
The house is absolutely beautiful! Slept everyone comfortably! Hot tub was nice! We enjoyed our girls weekend away!

We had about 8 adults and had a few kids ranging from a few months old to seven and we all had a great time! The property is spacious, clean and in a great location. It is close to the mountains and also indoor water park. The kids played downstairs and throughout the bedrooms. We will certainly be trying to rent this property again.

We're happy you enjoyed your stay at Iron Hill. Thank you for your feedback. We would love to work with you in the future! Best Wishes!
Spacious, plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms and gathering spaces.
just a short walk down the hill to the lake.
Our only challenge was a rowdy truckload of people barreling down the street yelling racist obscenities.
The house was a very good size for 9 people. The area it was in really had nothing going on and there was no place to walk around the lake.
The kitchen could use a few more pots and a cookie sheet.
There were no plastic cups to take outside with drinks-that would be a good idea…..
Aside from those observations the house worked out well and we had a very good time.
We stayed at the Iron Hill house for a family weekend. It was a perfect house for our extended family to gather and enjoy time together. Having a clean, welcoming home with multiple bedrooms, bathrooms and communal spaces where we could hang out just added to a fun winter weekend. We highly recommend it to others who are looking for a similar getaway with an ideal home away from home.
1 gallon of water took over an hour to boil on stovetop. Stove issue? Low propane pressure?
We actually expected the beds to be made, not just have the linens folded on top of the beds.
Otherwise, everything was fine
Property was good but the mattress need to be updated they was old spring matters killed our backs plus at night it would be nice if the rooms had a TV only 3 TVs and the kids wanted to play guys wanted to watch game girls wanted to watch movie and there wasn't enough TV's at night. But everything else was good.
The truth is that everything is very neat and clean, it has all the kitchen accessories for cooking. The only thing was that we could not use the hot spat for the reason that they did not leave the key. it is a very nice place

The Hot Tub is locked for safety, but the key for the Hot Tub is located inside the house. It is in a lock box on the wall, next to the door leading out to the Hot Tub, with instructions. We wish you would have contacted Guest Services. Someone is on call 24/7 and we would have been happy to help you.
With times the way they are, we couldn’t have a big Sweet 16 party for my daughter. We decided to do an overnight stay somewhere and bring a couple of her friends. This way we got out of town, went to dinner, had our cake and candle ceremony in the house and then in the morning got up, went to breakfast and headed to the outlets. We couldn’t have been any happier with the house. We felt right at home, everything we needed was there and everything was nearby that we needed.
The house was clean. The hot tub worked great. There was room for everyone. The bathrooms were nice and roomy. It really was just everything we wanted and more.
We are definitely coming back!
Group of us stayed for the weekend to go snowboarding it accommodated our entire group. It was very spacious the pictures doesn’t do justice. Jacuzzi was very clean and enjoyable for the weekend. If you plan on staying I would definitely bring toilet paper, paper towels & trash bags. Food places are about 5 minutes away and some places deliver. Driveway was very slippery & icy they did provide shovels & salt.
