We had the best time! The house exceeded our expectations, felt just like home. It had plenty of room for our big group and lots of space for the kids to spread out. Cozy and comfy and decorated beautifully. Definitely would love to return.. also very close to trollhaugen.
Had a weekend getaway with life-long girlfriends and we loved this place. The home was very spacious and had all the comforts of home. There were 5 of us and having 3 bathrooms, multiple bedrooms, decks and outdoor spaces made it perfect. We would definitely go back here.
What a beautiful house!
The details and effort that the host put in to make sure our stay was comfortable did not go unnoticed. We spent the weekend celebrating a bride to be, and the Colby Cottage was the perfect spot!
Pics don't do this place justice. The owners have thought of everything and take great care. It was spotless when we arrived and so homey!! They even decorated the home with a Christmas tree and lights. So much space for all of us to spread out. Sleeping arrangements are carefully thought out and comfortable A fresh coating of snow right before we headed to the Miracle at Big Rock Christmas lights. The outdoor spaces were beautiful-would love to come back in the summer/fall. Can't say enough great things about this home-Spectacular
This house is perfectly appointed .
They have thought of everything you could want or need. The house is charming in EVERY way…the kitchen / gathering room is very large and exceptional. Decks off every level!
What’s not to love??? The children enjoyed skiing at both local ski slopes.. but ohhhh…the summer would be perfect ! LOVE this HOUSE and everything about it!!
This house is set up well for family gatherings. It was nice to sit on the deck and watch the birds with morning coffee. It’s right next to the road so there’s some traffic noise outside but not inside. There are no bedrooms on the main level and the stairs going to the second level are steep so I would not book this house for someone with mobility issues. The AC worked well and it’s beautifully decorated. Apartment-sized fridge.
