Smell :(
The views were amazing! The location was nice. It did take a bit of effort to get back to cabin at the end of a ski day. I thought we would be able to stop back for lunch or breaks, but it was a little too far from the mountain village & the high speed lifts. We had a group of expert skiers. The lifts close to the cabin were very slow.
The main problem with the cabin was the smell. I am pretty sure there was a dead critter in the crawl space. We had to air out the cabin a couple times a day. I would have the property manager guarantee that they have dealt with the smell before you stay there. Also there is no garage and you cannot keep equipment in the cabin, even though there is space for it in the entry area.
The cabin was very cute. The beds/linens were nice. The master bedroom was nice, but no door for privacy. The second bedroom was crowded with bunks beds. It would be better with a queen bed or maybe two singles. The bathroom attached to the second bedroom was small.
I would stay there again if they took care of the smell!
