Lovely getaway

We enjoyed our stay at Marla’s on the Mountain and were WOW’ed by the wonderful views of the beautiful mountains from all of the large windows. The decor and design were very well done and the heated bathroom floors and quality mattresses were great touches. Short, direct access to the condo was key with our luggage and ski gear. Would definitely recommend and revisit. Our one and only suggestion, which I share with all rental properties lacking it, is to please provide a full length mirror for guests. A small detail but is so incredibly useful! However we loved our stay here!
