Beautiful views but the driveway was very very steep
We enjoyed the cabin overall and it was as pictures described. Plenty of space for all of the family. The view was also beautiful. I would only want whoever is considering to rent this unit be very aware of the driveway. It is a must that You drive a 4 wheel drive with chains, if there is predictions of snow. We got stuck three times in the driveway alone. Everywhere else was fine. It was just getting to the
Very nice cabin Beautiful scenery and good location

Upon arrival there were some broken items, beer bottles outside, hot tub barely any water, so unable toBe used and entering the house, there were so many live and dead flies than I’ve ever seen in my entire life.
We had a great stay with our adult children and grandchildren. The house is beautiful, well kept, and provides spectacular views of the mountains. It snowed one day, which made the the trip a blast for my 3 year old granddaughter. There was plenty of space for our party of seven. All three levels of the house had spacious bedrooms. The lower level offers a nice private space for adults or kids to hang out and watch TV or play ping pong. I would love to come back when the weather is warmer, so we can do outdoor activities without getting hypothermia. Snow tubing in 19 weather was not pleasant. There are plenty of great places to eat and get groceries near by. The host was easy to contact online and always responded in a timely manner. This was my first time booking with VRBO. Overall it was a great experience.
