Winter Getaway
Easy to book and communication was excellent. We however took a while to find the place so some instructions as part of booking would be great. A few appliances were not working but that did not detract from the visit. Warm, very tidy, exquisite views. Great place to stay.

Great Property but a Few Bumps in Process
The unit we rented was very hard to locate and the lock box didnt work. The host included a map, but wasnt clear to us in the dark where to go. The roads are hard to locate and GSP doesnt take you to the unit. There were no food markets and the clubhouse was closed the whole time we stayed there. Which was the only place to get food. Since we couldnt get into our unit with the lock being broken, we had to change units. The host was helpfull- we had to call her many times.
