Nothing beats the location that’s within walking distance to the ski slopes. Great for families with 4 rooms and 3.25 baths. There’s a lot of stairs but great for a workout! It’s pet friendly so we were able to bring our fur-baby! No yard tho but still spacious and right across the street is a stretch of an old golf green space for our walks. Besides the broken massage chair, everything else in working order. The couch may need to be deep cleaned or a new one should be considered. I did not sit on it during my stay. Call me clean freak but it looked very worn. I’d stay there again if they change the couch.
Overall, this was a great place to stay. Our group ranged from 40yo - 10months old, and we all enjoyed it. The house was nice and had enough space for all of us. The game room was a hit with everyone in the group. The dining table was large and able to accommodate our group. The garage is quite deep, so 2 cars can fit inside (but in front of each other, so the first car is trapped, but thats ok). The location is the real winner. This house was literally 5-7 minutes walk to Bear Mountain. You usually have to walk that distance after parking anyways, so it was great not having to pack the car and find parking. Overall I'd stay here again! Only thing is you have to check in at the village, which isnt the worst thing, but it is something you have to do. Still would recommend to stay here!
The entertaining area is really nice and open. The downstairs garage is really nice to be able to store all gear and be able to walk to the mountain was really great for the family.
We stayed here with a group of 12 ranging in ages from 50-2 and we were all comfortable. The massage chair was great after a long day of adventures. Great location for access to all that the mountain had to offer.
