We had a wonderful extended family (ages 1-85) stay in this home. We loved the proximity to town, the common areas for gathering, the gas fireplace, and the ample bedrooms (with comfy beds) and bathrooms. (We even designated one bathroom into a bedroom for the one-year-old; that's how big the bathroom was!). Everything was clean and straightforward for our use. The host was very responsive. We would definitely stay in this property again.

This was a great property for our group of seven women….plenty of bedrooms and baths. House was clean, beds were comfy. We particularly enjoyed the living area as we spent a lot of time drinking coffee, laughing, and catching up by the fire. Unfortunately it rained the whole time we were there and we did not get to enjoy the lovely screen porch.

Overall great experience; however, the sheets had stains on them in a few rooms and the cleaning service prior to check in could have been a tad better.

Beautiful Mountain Chalet

We appreciated our stay! It was perfect for a large family since plenty of bedrooms with large beds and lots of bathrooms. The gathering places were nice, and we enjoyed the screen porches too. It was nice to have the extra parking space below for more cars too. Thank you so much.

This beautiful house was perfect for our large family. The beds are super comfy and the kitchen has everything you would need. We enjoyed our evenings by the fireplace in the family room playing games. We all look forward to staying there again for another family getaway.

Plenty of room. Living room/dining room and kitchen were great!Parking was a challenge. The "overflow" lot down below was fine, but could be a pain in the rain. A lot of moving around especially checking out.
