We'll be back!
This place was fantastic. Perfect size for our group of 8 (two grandparents, two parents, four kids aged 5, 9, 12, and 16) to stay for three days on our ski trip.

Disappointing
We were really excited to stay at this house and when we first arrived, it looked clean and nice. However, once we settled in, we realized that several of the amenities (dishwasher, upstairs fireplace) weren't in working order. While the sheets were clean, the quilts had not been washed in quite some time and were really musty. The house in general was somewhat dated and musty, and several family members went home sick. Also, the trash from previous guests hadn't been taken away so we couldn't take ours out and had to keep it in the house, which wasn't ideal. There were just a lot of small things that added up to our leaving a day early, even though it meant cutting our time together short. We weren't able to speak directly with the property manager to discuss our issues, which was very disappointing, but the staff was courteous and responsive.

Fun in the hot tub
We enjoyed all the fun things to do, especially the hot tub. BUT, there were no beach towels. We asked for them and vacasa said they would have them delivered, bit they never came. /:

Nice location near ski slopes
Nice location within walking distance to the slopes. Town was horribly crowded which was stressful. House had nice view and was spacious enough for our larger group. Heat worked well. We had issues with some things though. Coffee maker was messed up, a piece of furniture broke while in use, there were spiders in the loft. Hot tub was dirty. We would come back at a not peak season time if those issues were addressed.

Great Time With Friends!
Happy the driveway was not too crazy! The pool table was fun as well. The loft was very cool! We sadly were not able to turn the fireplaces on, but that's ok.

Great location/pet friendly
Great location, the layout of the house is perfect for pets and for young adults and the “older” adults. The younger ones are downstairs in that living area playing pool while we were upstairs doing our thing. The hot tub was perfect. The only thing was a bummer was the bed swing didn’t have a mattress on it and the game machine wasn’t there. But it was perfect otherwise. I can’t wait to stay again.

Good for the basics , lacking for the premium price
The property and home were a good basic skiing cabin. Super close to hills , hot tub was fun, and the old but highly functional heat lamps in bathroom were a pleasant surprise. That said, when we booked it was going for a premium price and I would not place it in that category of home. The home is dated, the video games , dart board and all board games were inoperable , broken and missing pieces . the loft bedroom was cool for little kids but all kids complained that it hadnt been vacuumed ever. The grill caught fire due to having never been cleaned . Top bunk beds weren’t made , sheets were wet in dryer when we arrived , and dryer did not work well. Parking was limited, on mountain street (no driveway) and the stairs down to property were pretty intense for unpacking and carrying equipment. Photos don’t show this.
It is a decent property for a basic ski cabin, however it is not worth premium rate levels .
