View from the deck was fantastic and we loved hearing the bells from Sky Valley chapel. Upon initial entry there was a musty smell but it seemed to go away as we emptied the dehumidifier multiple times. Lighting in kitchen was poor. Instructions from Mountainblu said to place the garbage in the outdoor receptacle upon departure but there were no receptacles! It would’ve helped if there were some on-site instructions specific to the rental property.
