The "One bedroom, two bath" was a lovely condo with a great view of the mountain. We had minimal stairs to go up and the ideal walk of 20 feet to the mountain from our front door. Very nice and quaint condo for two people.

Overall nice condo. Missing basic things like salt and pepper, seasonings, sugar. Bottom sheet on bed too small and came undone during both nights, small soaps provided, no shampoo or conditioner.Other than those things the place was clean, well kept and comfortable. Very convenient for ski in/out. I would go again. Most annoying was the sheets. It would have been nice to know that there are no condiments, spices or tinfoil/plastic wrap.

The location is fantastic. Extremely close to the slopes. It was nice having a kitchen area was nice to have. For the most part everything was clean, However it could use a good deep cleaning. There was some mold in the tub and pretty dusty around the vents. We had a great view of the sunrise each morning that was breathtaking. We also really enjoyed the pool and hot tub, however from the location it is a bit of a walk, that would be fine in normal weather, but difficult for us in the snow. Overall it was decent and if we come back would stay again.

Reviewer Comments:
This condo is in a great location. It is situated right at the top of the lift as well as easy access to the resort amenities like the pool, hot tub, tennis courts, and fitness center. The condo itself needs some updating. There is a lot of unnecessary furniture and tchotchkes that give it a cluttered, dated, and dusty feel. The sofa bed in the living room is not suitable for sleeping on as it is just coils. We had to use an air mattress. There are also no curtains in the living rooms so as it is now, it's not really a good additional sleeping space. We did enjoy our stay but wouldn't have been as comfortable for our daughter if we hadn't brought the air mattress. The kitchen has most of the items you would need to cook meals which worked out well because there was a blizzard and we didn't want to have to go out to eat. Overall it was a good experience. Just some updates would make it a great experience!

Overall the amenities were awesome! From friendly check-in, the new Clubhouse was great! We enjoyed that after days on the slopes! The condo was great overall. The only downside was the sleeper sofa was not a full size sofa and the mattress was nothing but coils. My kids ended up sleeping on the floor for three nights. Next time I’ll be sure to put blow up mattress’s on the packing list.

Perfect unit for our needs (adult & teenager). Would have been tight for more than a couple and a child, but was great for our needs. Unit was in good shape, very convenient access to the slopes, on our short list to do again next year. Weather could've been better...but rental was a slam dunk. During covid so no interaction with staff, but check in/out process was easy.

This was our first time here, so we had no idea what to expect. The unit was clean and comfortable. I was surprised to see how close we were to the lift. I spent considerable time planning meals. That was the point of staying here vs. a hotel. We were extremely disappointed that the oven didn't work. The stovetop worked and the broiler worked, but the dinner wouldn't cook. We had to thrown the entire planned meal in the trash. Also, the pull out couch, according to my 11 and 13 year old daughters, was extremely uncomfortable. I would get a two bedroom next time. I would recommend this property, but not for a friends/family who need a second bed. Also, there was no room for groceries. Every cabinet was filled with kitchen gadgets. We had to use the counter top, which isn't a big deal if you are staying for a short period of time.

Reviewer Comments:
Excellent getaway with great accommodations. Although austere with the absence of eating/drinking availability, except for one true ripoff snack barand a very busy but meager drinking establishment, there are no such conveniences here. No Starbucks. This place is truly remote. Wonderful and helpful staff, but extremely poor development and organization of people planning and business recruitment. Even though located in the south making this business extremely seasonal, there are still expansion plans to be made, including more efficient ski lift systems that would encourage patrons to return. There is lots of room for growth and business recruitment.
