"Our family LOVED this place! Well appointed, logical layout, etc. What makes this place extra special is the location at the base of the mountains with incredible views from inside or out. PLUS a little playhouse for the littlest member of our family?! Swoon!!!! We hardly wanted to leave, but when we did, it was so closely located to town and great hikes/drives. PERFECTION!!!!"
