We had a great stay inside the house. Didn’t enjoy the outside much other than cooking on the grill due to a football sized wasp nest under the deck right where the patio table was. Other than that all the amenities were provided.

I'd stay here again.

The house clean, comfortable, roomy, and stocked with everything we needed. It was well located to ski at Crystal Mountain and Caberfae, and not too far from the Homestead as well. We had a great weekend.
