Great stay - super convenient location

Cabin was cozy and charming with vintage details throughout. Location was perfect for a few days of skiing at snow summit. Parking was easy and abundant and the walk to the slopes was quick even with two kids under 10. I wouldn't describe this as a 'luxury' stay - the heating was hard to get just right as the case in older cabins, and the kitchen would be small for a much larger group but it was overall really great. The kids enjoyed exploring all the rooms and we all enjoyed lounging, playing cards and having family time. Would love to come back again!
