Long weekend at the mountain
We stayed with my sister and her family, 8 of us in total. The Barn was clean and well set up. It had everything we needed to make for an enjoyable long weekend of Skiing, catching up with family and a small birthday celebration for two of the children! Communication with the owner was easy. Would definitely choose again for our next weekend in the snow.

Good quiet location
This is a lovely home in a location that suited our needs. The kitchen is well supplied and the fireplace lovely on those cold mornings. The beds are comfortable and bathrooms are nice. Having the washer and clothesline was very helpful to us, as well. Jen was very easy to communicate with.

Cozy and warm
The house is great. Really warm and cozy and tidy. Close to town and dog friendly which was awesome to be able to have our dog with us. Had lots of things included which was lovely (board games, wifi, firewood, linen, towels, pantry items etc). Great hosts very kind and communicative which was appreciated. Only problem we had was at the time of our stay a neighbour would blast music that shook the house late nights and early morning making it hard to sleep.
