Enjoyed our stay at this VRBO, it was convenient to everything we had planned. The house was spacious and had it been a little less rainy we would have had a campfire in the nice area they have outside. Would highly recommend this house.

Great location to the ski slopes

We rented this house for the family after Christmas. When we arrived the driveway was fully iced over. We were unable to get up the driveway at all for 3 days. It would have been nice for the management company to contact us to let know before we arrived. We were not prepared for this. The fireplaces were also not working. We called customer service who said they would send someone out but no one ever showed. Other than that the house was great and awesome location.

Conveniently located

Overall we enjoyed our stay because we weren’t at the house much, the house is in a great location to get to trails, activities, and food easily. Had a few hiccups, no bed linens were on site upon checking in and when we finally received they were dropped off in trash bags for us to do and some towels were still damp in the bags. Next don’t plan to cook many meals, the grill wouldn’t heat up and the kitchen items are minimum. We attempted the gas logs in the living room however the blower sounded like a wind tunnel (probably needs replacing). Luckily we didn’t need to or want to be in the house much with our activities we had planned. And be prepared to have to pay extra for a late checkout ,which we did despite the hiccups in the property management.

Beautiful Fall Weekend

Three generations gathered for Oktoberfest and a wonderful extended time in the mountains. The house was lovely and spacious and had all the amenities we needed. Location was great to enjoy the festival on Sugar (walking distance to the resort!) and as a main base for day trips throughout the area. Only a couple of hiccups with there not being a bunk bed as we saw in the pictures (we shifted kids on couches) and the water being turned off a day early as they thought we'd left (I contacted the utilities company and they sent someone to investigate and got it back on). But no worries--was still a special time (thank you!!)

Beautiful mountain retreat

We came with family group aged 2-76 years and all found it comfortable and cozy. Loved that there are two living room areas and the beds were comfortable which was awesome. Kids loved the bunk beds and they were large enough for us too which was helpful. Linens provided were good quality. Kitchen well stocked. Loved that they also provided complimentary dishwasher tabs and dish soap with new sponge so you don't have to pack those necessities. My kids are already asking when we can go back!

Wonderful

We had the most enjoyable stay at this home. It was so close to sugar mountain and made it perfect for us to sneak away for some night skiing. The beautiful back yard is where we spent most of our time when we were here. The beautiful scenery and sound of the water and nature was unbelievable. The only thing negative I would say is that we couldn't check in earlier due to them stating they needed adequate time to properly clean the house. However we arrived at 4pm as stated and there were empty water bottles under the bed and in the livingroom along with a lot of dust on the dressers and bathroom. The towels smelled smokey and some bedding was stained. But it was nothing a quick little cleaning on our part, to make it feel like home. I would definitely stay here again. And recommend this place to family and friends. We will be back next year to have another amazing family vacation.

House is ok

Location makes this a really desirable rental. Even in winter months it should be easy to access. Upon arrival (Friday afternoon) we found a bag of trash had been left outside the house and animals had gotten to it. I promptly reached out to management company. No one ever showed up, called or otherwise made any attempt to resolve the issue. The floor in the sun room is slanted... making it pretty much unusable. The kitchen needs some help, primarily on the cooking utensils. Most are old and need replacing, but if you plan to cook, bring your own. There's 1 pot, 1 frying pan and a baking sheet. That's it. House accommodates 16 people but you couldn't cook much more than breakfast for 2. Some new kitchen equipment and it would be OK, but the management company is poor.

Sugar is Sweet

I'll start by saying we had a great time in the house. The location was perfect and the property was generally clean and consistent with the online photos -- I really loved the view from the master bedroom. But there were several things that could be improved for the next guest. There is no smoking on the property but there were cigarette butts left by the front door and fire pit. It took several attempts by email, text, and phone to get any information/answers in advance from the property manager. On site, it would be helpful to have instructions for the television sets, and gas fireplace (we never got it to work), as well as where to take trash at the end of our visit (we had an address in an email, but couldn't find a bin). This is a nice property and I would certainly stay there again, but a little attention to the details would make it even better for the next family.
