We stayed at Jim’s house in early February for a quick ski trip. Jim’s house was beautiful, clean and convenient to the mountain. It was fully stocked with everything we needed and the kids had a blast in the loft and basement. Jim was very responsive and accommodating.

Beautiful area and home

My family and another family typically spend a week together during the summer. We both have small children ages 4-6. We were looking for a quiet place to spend our vacation with a nearby lake and rented this home for 5 nights. The home is new, very comfortable, and very well equipped. There are two great bedrooms for adults and a third bedroom with 4 twin beds that is great for younger kids. It is on a small lake that is nice for swimming and kayaking. The lake is small - I could swim across it in about 6 minutes, but perfect for small kids and has docks for entry and a floating dock to jump off of. The home has a gorgeous view of nearby Elk Mountain, a local ski mountain. During the summer the mountain allows hiking up its runs, which we did and was a great morning activity even with young kids and yields a wonderful view of the surrounding mountains. Overall the area is rural and quiet, if you go you will want to plan to cook almost all of your meals.

Perfection

Everything about this chalet was magnificent. Super clean, very well appointed and super stocked with all the extras you do not find in other rentals. Overly generous with bath and beach towels, beach chairs and even kayaks. We loved the rural location in the "endless mountains" The owner is very helpful about local things to do. Tubing the Delaware River is a must! This is a winner.

Great ski house

This house was a perfect location for a ski trip to Elk mountain. The house is very nicely decorated and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The house had plenty of space for two families. I also appreciated the linens and towels that were provided. Jim was super nice and very accommodating. We are so happy to have found such a great rental! Thanks so much for everything!

Perfect Elk Mountain Chalet !

A wonderful retreat with fabulous views of Elk Mountain. Comfortable, clean, and well appointed in every way. We are a party of 5 adults away for a long ski weekend. The garage and basement are heated and set up to easily store ski equipment. The kitchen and great room are perfect for relaxing by the fire and cooking dinner. Pantry is stocked with everything a cook needs for a family meal. Quality beds and linens. Clean bathrooms with ample hot water for five showers apres ski. Quiet neighborhood minutes to the mountain. The owner and host, Jim Duffy, is terrific! He is easy going and pleasant to work with through the reservation process. He went above and beyond expectations to insure our stay would be everything we wanted it to be. Thank you Jim! We highly recommend this home. We will be back for a longer stay next time. (Hey Jim! Save us a week in early February 2020!) The Griffith Family, Wilmington, Delaware

Incredible Views!

Our family found this house to be very comfortable and well designed for a group of 9. It had a great layout that allowed for privacy and yet open to group gatherings. The loft sleeping area was comfortable and sealed off from downstairs noise .The kitchen had everything that was needed for preparing meals for this large group throughout the week. Beds were super comfortable! Our only suggestion would be more towel hooks in the bathrooms. Otherwise, it truly was an amazing house. The views are spectacular! Proximity to Elk...fantastic! My 4 year old grandson just loved it especially the sleeping loft! What a great house!

Perfect beautiful ski house

My family and I loved staying at this amazing ski house. It’s brand new, with a rustic and beautifully constructed wooden interior. Everything was very clean and nicely decorated. The views of Elk Mountain are fantastic. Driving to the mountain is quick and easy. There’s a large garage, which is a great place to leave all your gear overnight. Our kids loved sleeping in the loft upstairs, with four beds and their own 1/2 bath. The gas fireplace was a great way to warm up. The owner was very helpful and responsive. Thanks!
