Overall the property is well-located and has plenty of space for a family. The hot tub was a highlight for the kids. My rational for the rating is based on the worn, dated property. For such a premium (we paid 1,000/night) I would expect nice finishes and premium amenities. Instead the property had loose floor boards, chipped walls, dirty/stained carpets and is very outdated.
Stained carpets throughout the house.
Walls chipped, in need of repair.

Hot tub was fantastic. Perfect location. Had all the cooking and cleaning items we needed. Kids loved it!! Couldnt figure out the gas for the fireplace. Games were in a cabinet but just thrown in the cabinet and missing most of the pieces to actually play. Everything else was fantastic. We plan to rent again in the winter.

Cabin is old and needs upgrade

The checkin process is little complicated, they send you access code after you ask for it and 15 before check in time at 3.45 pm, hot water was not coming, on enquiry they mentioned that it comes only between 9 am to 5 pm, which was on no use as we had to leave before that and come after that from ski, every thing from closer to bathroom drawers are very old.

Nice little cabin, great location

The cabin is nice and well provisioned, with a well stocked kitchen. It is a little bit dated in places, specifically the downstairs bathroom, the kitchen counters and cabinets, and we ran out of hot water one evening when we used both showers at the same time, but overall it was a very nice stay, and the location is great.

Great place close to everything

Great place close to everything we wanted, plenty of space, pretty much everything we needed to cook in the kitchen. For the most part everything in great working condition. Everything was clean and ready when we arrived.
