This was a great property for our group of seven women….plenty of bedrooms and baths. House was clean, beds were comfy. We particularly enjoyed the living area as we spent a lot of time drinking coffee, laughing, and catching up by the fire. Unfortunately it rained the whole time we were there and we did not get to enjoy the lovely screen porch.
Our family enjoyed our stay in the chalet! It was roomy enough for our large group. Not quite walking distance to town as we had hoped but was still a great location.
Eight women age 60 to 80 spent a week in this beautiful home. Perfect location for enjoying coffee on screened porch. Accommodations were clean and our need was met.
We stayed for a family wedding. Property was clean and very convenient to all venues. Everything we needed was on hand.

Family Getaway
This beautiful house was perfect for our large family. The beds are super comfy and the kitchen has everything you would need. We enjoyed our evenings by the fireplace in the family room playing games. We all look forward to staying there again for another family getaway.
Just what we needed for our large, family group. Plenty of comfortable space for everyone to gather. Beautiful porch! The owner was very responsive and helpful!
4 adult couples stayed. All had our own bathroom and nice sized bedroom. We walked to Main Street from the home twice. So close to town!! Great porch with fire pit. Would highly recommend!
Plenty of room. Living room/dining room and kitchen were great!Parking was a challenge. The "overflow" lot down below was fine, but could be a pain in the rain. A lot of moving around especially checking out.
This house is wonderful ! It's clean and organized.
The fireplace and the huge a-frame window make it such a pleasant place to hang out.
The owners were incredible. They were very responsive and helpful.
Great property. Perfect for our large family. Very clean and great location near to town. Whether we were headed downtown pr to Dry Falls or the nature center, we were close to everything.
We had a wonderful extended family (ages 1-85) stay in this home. We loved the proximity to town, the common areas for gathering, the gas fireplace, and the ample bedrooms (with comfy beds) and bathrooms. (We even designated one bathroom into a bedroom for the one-year-old; that's how big the bathroom was!). Everything was clean and straightforward for our use. The host was very responsive. We would definitely stay in this property again.
Overall great experience; however, the sheets had stains on them in a few rooms and the cleaning service prior to check in could have been a tad better.
The accommodations were perfect to host the entire bridal party for our daughter’s wedding. The host communicated well and the house was very well stocked for whatever was needed. Location is perfect, minutes from downtown and all the things we needed to access throughout the week. Great stay, would definitely stay again!
We appreciated our stay! It was perfect for a large family since plenty of bedrooms with large beds and lots of bathrooms. The gathering places were nice, and we enjoyed the screen porches too. It was nice to have the extra parking space below for more cars too. Thank you so much.

Beautiful Mountain Chalet!
Thank you for having us at your beautiful mountain chalet. We really appreciated the number of rooms with large beds and the number of bathrooms. The screened porches were a plus too. It was nice to have all these gathering places. We will come back again. Thank you!
