We enjoyed our stay in Keystone. The house was absolutely beautiful with breathtaking views. The house was fully equipped with everything we needed. We enjoyed the spacious kitchen for cooking and eating as a family. The hot tub was a plus after a day on the slopes. This was one of our favorite places we have stayed at Keystone!
Our winter stay was fabulous. We had everything we needed for our week at this house. Sledding in the back yard, hot tub, heated floor in bathroom, fireplace, close to skiing. The House has everything you could need and is in a perfect location.
Great property and great location! Suited our needs well! Property owner was attentive to our needs and easy to communicate with. Would definitely stay here again!
Large beautiful home for family getaways. Closest to Keystone ski area. Totally enjoyed the week here. Plenty of room to spread out and plenty of seating for meals, etc. Would definitely stay here again. The view from the large windows was awesome.
Stayed at this cabin with our friends and children for our wedding, it was so beautiful and comfy! Came with so many thoughtful extras to make the stay easier, and it was extremely clean. Would love to come back someday!
This is a beautiful large comfortable home. We enjoyed the kitchen, gas grill, hot tub, two living rooms. Communication with Ed before and during our visit was very helpful and friendly.
Very nice home that is minutes from Keystone. It was a well maintained house with many amenities. We had 4 adults and 5 children and were very comfortable. I would suggest this place to my friends and family.
We had a great time celebrating our parents 50th wedding anniversary. There was 15 of us (8 adults and 7 kids) and we had ample room! The kids loved the bunk bed room were they each had a bed and space to spread out! So many spaces for us to all sit and relax as a family and the kitchen was a good size too. The outdoor table was amazing with enough seats for all of us and speakers to play music. The location was great. We hiked, biked, and swam all weekend. I had our 10 month old with us and really appreciated the baby amenities (pack n play, swing, high chair, toys, and more!) Some of the kitchen amenities/appliances were a bit dated with some quirks, but it did not impact our stay. We loved staying here and would love to return.
Everyone in our family had their own space and were comfortable. It was great to have a 2 car garage to help stay warm. The kitchen was great - so big - with lots of seating. Great hot tub and heated bathroom floors. Living room was sooo comfortable.
We used this home as a central location during our wedding week and it was perfect! it’s great for larger groups or medium sized groups like us who want to spread out! Several of our friends commented on how nice it was compared to other listings they had been to near by. Michele was responsive and so accommodating; we are so grateful for her hospitality and willingness to host us! It was an amazing week and we hope to visit again soon
All our children and grandchildren stayed with us for a week of games, hiking, s'mores lots of lots of fun smack talking and reminiscing. The house is the perfect layout for a large group with a ten top table inside and outside and enough restrooms and bedrooms so everyone has their own space. Every amenity you could possibly need is in this house. The owners are fantastic and responsive.
Ed and Michele were amazing from the first time we contacted them! My husband and I are from out of state and planned to have a fall wedding in Colorado. The property was beautiful and spacious for our small wedding of 25. The views as well as the amazing kitchen made it effortless to welcome our family and celebrate such a big occasion. It was perfect for a relaxed and beautiful wedding.
Where to start? The sole purpose of this trip was to let our native Floridian granddaughters experience snow. This house was perfect. It allowed the four family "units" space for privacy yet had room for family meals and game nights. The views off the master balcony and back deck were awe inspiring. The yard allowed the girls to play in the snow, sled, build snowmen and even help shovel! The property was close to shopping and all the tours/activities we had booked. The hot tub was enjoyed by those who had a strenuous day snow biking! I would highly recommend this property. We would love to return and experience it in the summer.
This large house offers ample space and practicality, which are essential for a ski vacation. The large kitchen is a wonderful space to gather for meals, family games, and puzzles. There are plenty of places to sleep and well placed bathrooms to accommodate a large group. When you walk in the front doors (upper and lower) , you are met with a large space to take off all necessary snow gear and ski boots. The hot tub was clean and overlooked a beautiful view of a national forest.
This place could easily deserve the 5 star rating, with a few simple updates. The presence of dirty light switches, a badly stained kitchen sink, one bathroom shower drained very slowly, and very old bed pillows detracts from the overall experience. Addressing these issues through updates and attention to detail would greatly enhance the stay for future guests.
It should also be noted that when we arrived, the cleaning service had not been scheduled as planned. Therefore, we were required to do our own cleaning before we could settle in for our vacation. This required us to do a significant amount of cleaning in the kitchen, and sheets for all the beds had to be laundered by us. We also had to clean the floors and do some light cleaning in the bathroom. The hosts were incredibly apologetic and did everything in their power to help us deal with this situation.
Despite this significant setback and the noted cosmetic needs, my family would certainly choose this rental for our next Keystone vacation
This was a great property. My husband and I had our wedding at the house and it was perfect. The owners where so flexible and accommodating because it was a large group. Our families stayed with us and everyone just loved it. I would highly recommend this place for anytime of the year for every event.
This house was perfect for our family reunion. So much space and everything we needed. The back porch area was peaceful and greatly enjoyed. The location was ideal and beautiful. Property managers were extremely responsive. We will definitely be back.

About the host
Hosted by M Balcerzak
We are a large family who lives down in Denver and loves everything about Summit County. We love summer as much as winter in the mountains and savor every moment we get to spend there.
Why they chose this property
We had spent several years looking at different properties. As soon as we walked in the door, we knew we had found our home. The size is perfect for our expanding family, allowing our children and grandchildren to enjoy everything we love about the mountains with us.
What makes this property unique
The location of the home is ideal for us, allowing us to acces the home via the Loveland Pass as well as through Silverthorne. Also, as it backs up to National Forest giving us the privacy a large family with small children needs, we have access to the activities we love from our back door!
