Charmed on Sandy Way | Olympic Valley Ski Home, Free Shuttle, Dog Friendly

Welcome to Charmed on Sandy Way!

Alpine relaxation meets mountain adventure at this three-bedroom, two-bathroom home in Olympic Valley, with easy access to world-class skiing and a free shuttle to the mountain during the winter months. The bright, inviting great room has stunning floor-to-ceiling windows that showcase the surrounding mountain views, making it a cozy place to come home to after a day on the slopes. This home is pet-friendly, so your four-legged family members can enjoy the mountains with you.

Enter the home from the spacious front deck. To your immediate left is a galley kitchen with stainless steel appliances and all of the cooking gadgets you might need. The kitchen opens to the dining area, which seats eight comfortably. Continue around the corner to the living area, with a cozy wood stove, a TV with streaming service and a JBL soundbar, and games to play with the whole group.

Two bedrooms are on the main floor: one queen bedroom and one bunk room that sleeps 4. These bedrooms share a detached bathroom with a combination tub and shower.

Journey upstairs to the primary bedroom, furnished with king-sized comforts and a beautifully beamed, vaulted ceiling that adds to the room's spaciousness. The primary bathroom is just down the walkway, with a stand-up shower, vanity mirror lighting, and behind-mirror storage.

We love this home for its charming details and beautiful mountain views.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location
Clean home, great location, home was cozier (smaller) than pictured. Living and dining rooms were tight, not enough seating in living room for 8 people unless you squeeze against each other on the 2 couches. Children’s bunk bed room is also much smaller than the picture appears.Would stay again but with fewer people.

Good/Great

Overall perfect location. The Mountaineer app TART shuttle will pick up / drop off right at front door. We felt if there’s a fireplace, the owner/PM should provide at least a little wood for enjoyment. Also, the gas burners on the stove were out but no big deal we just lit them with lighter. Communication was pretty good and timely, only a few discrepancies here and there. We would stay here again. Note to owners: you have a perfect deck for a hot tub hint hint thank you! 4.5 Stars!
