Perfect location and the place is beautiful and really nice. Everything was better than advertised. Hot tub was amazing! We had two families, 4 adults, 8 kids and it was ideal. Three separate living/TV areas worked great. Kitchen is super nice. Proximity to lift is crazy good. Would love to go back!!

After 18 years with WF Reservations, they made no effort to earn our business. This VRBO was actually cheaper than a smaller unit under WF Reservation.Unit was beautiful, clean, roomy, and a true ski in and out.The property managers were responsive and answered all our questions.A must rent unit for sure.

Ski trip

Could not have been more pleased with the house. Lived up to everything the listing states. Hot tub and ski in/out cannot be beat as top amenities. In addition after something was left after checkout and we had already departed the area, managers of the house were easily contacted and were prompt to ship the item to where it needed to be. You can’t go wrong with the house.

Great location right on the mountain!

We had the best time in Whitefish at this chalet. Beautiful view. Very nice, clean property. We had everything we needed to cook meals at the home. We did not rent a car. We bought groceries on the in from the airport, and door dashed the rest. Base lodge and multiple chair lifts were a very short ski ride down a small hill. We utilized the snow bus to go into town, and Ubers were also easy to get. Two families of five (6 children total) had a very comfortable, fun stay. And there was still room for more! We plan to book here again. We absolutely loved it.

Excellent house and location for 2 families!

This property was a fantastic house for our two families - everyone had plenty of space and the ski in ski out was as advertised and minutes from the base village. Our only complaints were a lack of kitchen utensils/gadgets, and a shortage of towels. There were only 8 towels, and with the hot tub, we were washing towels every day. Other than that, it was perfect! Easy to get to, clean, just the right amount of luxury, and plenty of comfortable beds/bathrooms! If you’re looking for a ski in/ski out at Whitefish for all ski abilities, this is it!

Boys Trip ‘24

This is a beautiful house literally at the base of a ski resort. We had 6 of us, and this house easily accommodated all of us. During our stay we had weather in the mid 80’s to low 90’s, and this presented a slight problem. I say that because the vast majority of this house does NOT have AC. The 2 master suites however DO have AC units. The only other bummer was the 10am checkout time.

1st time to Montana

Went to Montana for my daughters wedding. Decided to rent a property were the family could all stay. The property was awesome. Our flights got changed with the airlines, so I reached out to property manager upon landing to see if we could check in a little early. Response was almost instant. 1st impression was how clean and nice the property was upon arrival. Loved the layout and the fact that the bedrooms each basically had their own floor. 2nd fridge in the garage was useful. Information about the unit and local area to dine and visit were all organized in a binder. No issues with the unit and cannot wait to come back.

Frigid Whitefish

Property is perfectly situated, clean and has all advertised amenities. Check in process was a bit rough…..had to call management company after 4p after not having been texted codes. Upon arrival to property in -14deg temps, found that the provided entry codes were incorrect. Property was extremely cold upon entry (50deg) and, given that it has radiant heat, took almost a whole day to heat up. Perhaps the departure settings shouldn’t be so low….or it could be prepped prior to next arrivals. Overall was a great place to stay and we would book it again. Thx!

This property worked very well for our group. Kitchen/dinning area was large enough to accommodate our larger group. The main level was a little warm for my liking in the afternoons with no A/C however this was in the property description so it wasn't a surprise.
