A Gorgeous View

We stayed during the middle of the winter - but the view impressed no less. The owner was very responsive. There is no wifi, but TMobile and Cricket connected nicely for what we needed during our stay. Overall, a comfortable stay after a long day of snowboarding.

Beautiful spot, quiet, well supplied… Great family getaway with our kids. There is no Wi-Fi, so bring a hotspot if you need access. Phone access is minimal.
