Ski trip

The house is nicely layed out for a large family or in our case two couples with kids. Tripple bed in kids room with space to play was great. Took a min to figure out the heating system and gas fireplace but was warm and cozy. It is 50 min depending on trafic to the ski hill and worked great for our needs.

Almost perfect

When I tell you that this location checked almost all the boxes;I cannot stress enough how surprised I was. It was stocked, clean, cozy, and was an amazing location. HOWEVER, I have never felt a more firm mattress in my life. I actually never knew you could purchase a mattress as hard as the ones in every bed of the house. It’s quite a shame because we would book this place once or twice a year otherwise. I’d suggest strongly that they all are replaced or add mattress padding considering that the point of renting is to stay overnight. Thankfully there was a pullout mattress we moved to. We might have had to leave early. Otherwise, this location is a gem.

Lovely place for our family

We enjoyed our stay immensely. Multigenerational family group had plenty of room for grandma, daughter and husband and grandkids to have separate bedrooms. Open floor plan upstairs was perfect for family time. Games and toys were an added bonus. Kitchen had everything we needed to feel right at home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will book again when we visit relatives nearby.

This was a fabulously set up vacation home, everything was so accessible from the kitchen to the rooms and bathrooms. Everything was so clean and in order but was so well set up that it felt like home. Beautiful views with great access to other destinations in the area. Definitely will be coming again.

Great house!

My husband and I recently stayed at this beautiful home for 4 nights. We love the area, and visiting local Wineries that we are Members of. This home really suited our needs as a home base for trips to the Wineries, and a very cozy place to come home to after a day out . It was only the two of us, so we primarily used the upstairs portion of the home where the living room, kitchen, master bedroom and bath are located. The sectional sofa in the living room is very spacious and comfortable, and the television is one of the largest we have ever had in a rental. We love watching movies in the late afternoon after a day out, so that was a plus. The kitchen had everything we needed, so we were able to prepare our own meals. The décor of the home is very tasteful, and everything was super clean. The view of all of the pine trees from the living room/kitchen area and the deck is gorgeous! Almost like you're in a tree house. The house itself is very private with neighbors a good distance away. A Safeway market just minutes from the house, so that was very convenient. The Management for this home is top notch. They were very friendly and very quick to respond to a few questions we had once we arrived at the home. Also, they were very accommodating to give us an early check-in since no one had been occupying the home prior to our check-in date. This a a great house! Highly recommended!
