A ski weekend stay with teens

Everything was as described. The cabin was perfect for our family ski trip. It only took 25 minutes to get to Bear Valley. The property manager was very prompt in responding to questions. The check-in and check-out process was seamless. We will be returning!

Everything was amazing! The only thing missing was a big pot to cook pasta and potatoes in and bbq tools. We couldn’t use the fire pit (no propane). The pool facilities were nice. BBQ-ing on the back and looking at the meteor shower was great! Thank you for sharing your cabin with us. Sherry

Cute Cabin

Cabin was super cute and updated with a nice layout, areas for family to hang out and cook. Parking was easy as well and location was perfect for us. The only negative was that the house was not fully cleaned, we arrived to dog paw prints all over the downstairs hall, dog hair through the bedrooms like they hadn’t been vacuumed, no trash cans in the bathrooms or towels upstairs in the primary bath, dirty kitchen utensils and counter tops. Made us a little leary of how clean everything else was when seeing that. The house itself was very cute though.
