Great community with a lot of amenities. We really enjoyed the area, plenty of trails and places to walk with your dog. My son really enjoyed the upstairs room for himself and the place had everything we needed.

The TV was constantly buffering, you couldn’t even watch a shirt 30 minute sitcom and there were some ants in the unit. Other than that everything was good!

We just had a quick two day stay. This is the quietest place we have ever stayed. The condo was clean and parking was plenty. The tv situation took a bit to figure out but not an issue. We will definitely look at staying here again.

The house was great! The sheets were incredibly comfy. Might be better to have the bed upstairs as the heater in the bedroom below is very loud, washer didn’t work when we were there but we just hand washed everything. Also be really careful as the walkway down was very very icy when we got there. Both my boyfriend and I struggled to get down the first night.

Snowboard trip

Super convenient for our short snowboard trip. Clean and cute. Hot tub is a bit further from the property (just a minute in the car but would be a long walk in the winter). I’d definitely stay here again.

Great condo beautiful inside and out. Needs a bed upstairs. Doesn't sleep 5, only 4. TV only worked intermittently. Property wasn't ready on time for us to check in. Could be awesome, just pretty good.

Listing says sleeps 5 but it absolutely does not. There was one bed in the house with the flattest pillows, about as thick as crepes. Upstairs has 2 of the tiniest chairs that are supposed to be beds but aren’t. Not enough pillows and blankets for the supposed 5 people. I would like a partial credit
