The property had beautiful mountain views, the house was very warming, the master bed was very comfortable, and a huge plus to having a TV in the master bedroom, its was at the bottom of the bed hidden , if you love nature this is the perfect area, went to waterfalls ,did UtV and horseback riding.

I received an email from Vrbo with a door code for the property, but none of the four doors opened with the code provided. After two days of travel, the only way to enter the home was through a sliding glass door that had been left unlocked.One of the Vrbo emails indicated that the host had sent us a message, but when I opened it, the message was blank. I emailed the host to report the issue with the door code and never received a response. There should have been a phone number for the host or at least a local cleaning person who could assist with entry.Another concern was the condition of the driveway. The deep ruts on the very steep ramp leading to the house could easily damage a vehicle’s suspension. The driveway needs maintenance or asphalt at least halfway up the incline.Once inside, I was able to change the code on one of the four locked doors and left a written note for the cleaning staff. The interior of the home was excellent and matched the images shown online.

Wonderful Place in an excellent location.

Wonderful Place in an excellent location, place needs a spring cleaning. We enjoyed our weekend stay at Michael's home. Beautiful views when it wasn't raining or hazy. Hot tub, sauna and pool table were a hit with the college students and child. Items that need attention: Gas grill (regulator issues), Recliner broken (upstairs), DVD didn't work (upstairs) and the Espresso maker (leaks). No complaints with sleeping accommodations. The driveway was a challenge for our two-wheel drive vehicles, but we made it to the reward at the top. Wish we could have stayed longer with better weather. We definitely recommend staying there, you won't want to leave. Michael, Thank you for the opportunity.
