The Villa was beautiful. It was clean and inviting, cozy, and decorated nicely. Fireplace was nice for ambiance even though the weather was warm. Check in was easy and information was clear. Master bedroom was very nice with a beautiful view of the Lake and a little sitting balcony. Master bath was spacious! The steam shower worked half the time, but when it did it was wonderful! It could be operator error. Not sure. The Jacuzzi bathtub was big and great to soak in after a long day of skiing but unfortunately the jets did not work. But the water was nice and hot. The soaps, creams, and shampoos were wonderful. Good quality and smelled great. This place is literally steps from the Lake, and the view is just spectacular. We walked and climbed Eagle Rock, and we walked all the way to Sugar Pine Point! I would highly recommend this place. I would love to visit in the summer. We had one of the best vacations!
