Great layout and amenities!

Our group had 10 teenagers and the hot tub and game room in the garage were BIG hits. The ski room was a perfect place to contain all the equipment and dry the gear. The dryer was a bonus! We had plenty of room for the 13 of us and proximity to the slopes was very convenient.

Snowy skiiing weekend

We stayed 2/13 to 2/17 and had a great time! There were 11 of us and there was plenty of space for everyone. We were only a 5 min drive to Crystal Mountain. Description said short walk to slopes, but I’m not sure it’s really walkable from the slopes or the house. A few of us tried it one day and it was quite the trek and would not recommend. Maybe we didn’t know the exact path to take.House was great as well as the communication from the owner. Would definitely recommend!

Loved area in lower level for all ski stuff. Hot tub was great, but couple in bedroom said that the small & humidity were very unbearable at night. The garage was great, bedroom upstairs not of any use with no bathroom and not connected to house.

We loved the house! It was perfect for two families with kids. Did not use the garage bunk room or play area much because it is not heated. The driveway was steep and couldn’t make it up without 4 wheel drive as it was very slick. Short drive into the resort. Also loved the ski storage room! Would suggest some sort of heater in the basement. Beds were comfortable, if you’re used to sleeping on queens. The couch was comfortable and cozy as well!

Beautiful, peaceful, clean, accommodating!

My husband and I took our large blended family here for our first vacation together—it was perfect! The layout allows for group activities as well as enough space to spread out. The house was clean and all basic necessities were stocked as well as thoughtful touches like laundry detergent, shampoo and conditioner, etc I think my only suggestion would be a better sound system for the living room tv or an upgraded tv with better sound. We loved this property, the hosts were excellent, and we would definitely recommend to anyone!
