The girl at check in was wonderful! However, the chalet is very dated. The wood stove was not cleaned and needed more supplies to get it going. The mattress was old and uncomfortable as was the sofa.

Our visit began with a beautiful drive up a quaint lane to arrive to a stunning view looking down over hills and snowy trees glistening in the sun. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. We never needed for anything. All of our requirements (of which there are many 🙄) were fully met, including being able to bring our little 4 legged hairless, barking friends. The local café, Deb's Hidden Café, was a true delight, and we were even invited to the weekly TV bingo night. 😅 We now have friends forever.
