Just alright

The location is really great and walking distance to snow summit. Beds, sheets, and linens aren't comfortable and kitchen is very bare bones. The house was also fairly dusty with cobwebs.

Ideal Location, Spacious

We had no idea the location would be walking distance to the ski lifts so that was a lovely surprise. It was very convenient and easy for our teen/tween kids to walk to the slopes. The property was comfortable, beds are extremely firm (if that's your preference), and the space was functional for our needs. Property is a little dated (flooring, pots/pans, dishwasher) but it won't deter us from considering staying here again. Owners might want to add a dishwasher brush by the sink and note to guests that everything needs to be scraped completely clean before loading the dishwasher as evidenced by cleanliness of some of the mugs/dishes in the cabinets. Minor inconvenience to an overall enjoyable stay.
