Great Family Ski Trip

The property was just as described and great for our family. There was plenty of room for the kids to play in the basement while the parents enjoyed a glass of wine in the kitchen sitting area. The property is an easy drive to Holiday Valley.

Girls outing

We had 14 people stay and there was plenty of room for all of us. Lot's of extra pillows and blankets. The kitchen had everything we needed. It was close to Ellicottville which was nice since we went there Friday night and again on Saturday for shopping. Would definitely stay again.

Great place!!

We had a wonderful time at this house! Location was exactly the same as the listing, easy to communicate with the owners and the property was very clean and tidy - they even provide you with some wood!! I had suspected it was going to be enough wood for about one campfire but it was much more and very generous. Will definitely be back here!

As advertised

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2-night stay! The house was exactly as listed - extremely clean and well-kept with a lot of amenities to make the stay enjoyable. The kids loved the basement with all of the space and games and the various bedrooms and bed options gave us plenty of different arrangements to work with for our group. About a 8-9min drive to the heart of Ellicottville. Would stay here again!

Large, beautiful house that fits everyone!

We rented this property for a weekend in September to gather with friends. The spacious house was big enough for all 10 of us to spend time and sleep in. We spent most of our time in the beautiful back yard by the fire pit. The owners are super curteous, responsive, and helpful. I would rent from them again anytime!

Friend reunion

Third place was great, close to Ellicottville but a bit off the beaten path, so nice and quiet but quick drive to town for takeout, playground, sculpture park etc. We were 2 families with kids meeting up for a long weekend, it was perfect having the 2 bedrooms on each floor and each with a full bath, great setup for a couple of families coming together. It was clean, kitchen well stocked with utensils, pots/pans. Really great fire pit though we did not use. Would definitely stay again!

Great ski housing for 2-3 families!

This property had everything we needed for 3 families - plenty of space to sleep, hang out, and get to Holiday Valley quickly (less than a 10 minute drive). The kids even used the back yard for sledding (as well as all the games in the basement, and board games upstairs)! Kevin was a great host, replied immediately to any question we had and was very friendly. Besides food and drinks, we didn't need to bring anything else with us - everything was provided in the kitchen and bedrooms which is a huge plus when traveling with kids. The house was clean and the linens were in good condition. We'd definitely stay here again - thank you Kevin!

Superb short ski trip

Enjoyed this home for a weekend ski trip with our two son and family friends with 3 kiddos. The home is a short drive from Holimont, Holiday Valley and downtown, but the home more than makes up for the drive in! We had great family time cooking, playing games and dancing because the house has a wonderful basement game area in addition to the open living room/kitchen area on the first floor, as well as a loft area on the third floor. One of the best things about this home is that it is QUIET! Previous rentals have been much older and creaked, this home allowed kids to go to bed at different times and most importantly allowed adults to enjoy morning coffee while kids slept in! The host quickly responded to questions and made check in super convenient. We loved this house and our stay!

Lovely Stay with Friends

We enjoyed our stay at this property! The owner was very responsive and easy to work with! Of course we were in the middle of a heat wave and the property has no air conditioning but we made it work! Overall the property was clean and well maintained with lots of room for our friend who was in a wheelchair. Property is a short drive to Ellicotville where you can find Many great restaurants.

Weekend Ski Trip for Two Families

We had a great time and really enjoyed the house. We were 2 families celebrating a weekend of skiing with our teen kids they head off to college next year. No issues whatsoever with the house, and the lower level with games was idea for our kids and a few of their friends.

Great Experience!

My family and two other families rented this beautiful place for the weekend. It was very clean and a perfect fit for us. The only suggestion I could give, is to put stone around the firepit. It was extremely muddy and difficult to keep the kids out of the mud. Other than that, it was a great time!
