The home was reaaonably clean and in a lovely area. We had an event to go to but if we had not plans, there was a wonderful and extremely generous array of books and games. The kitchen was up to date.

The home had a renovated kitchen and bathroom. The problem was the furniture was all very old, stained, covered in kids stickers, sofas were trash. Throw away 1/2 the not needed furniture, replace the sofas and the house would be great.

Great Location and great place to stay

The place was very comfortable for 5 -6 people it was very roomy and we did not feel like we were on top of each other. The location was great it was with 30 minutes of 3 ski resorts. It was very quiet and even had some nightly deer visitors. We would definitely stay again.

We had a great time!

The place was super clean and exactly as advertised. They also provided about 7-8 full size bath towels and a ton of extra blankets which was a nice surprise. It was a little chilly when we got there but it warmed up quickly. Overall very pleased with our stay and would recommend!!
