Disliked: Cleanliness
this place is not nice as photos indicated. Yard and exterior are disappointing… dirty paint, debris in yard, etc. Tired, cheap bedding sheets/comforter. Flooring is deteriorating, loose boards, soft subfloor. No bedside lamps (!?) and wire bedside (not!?) tables let your phone, personal items fall to the floor. Shower curtain had thick petri-dish disgusting goop growing at the bottom of it. Dryer did not work properly. No broom available to sweep up. Exterior gate did not work to secure the property… good thing we didn’t have our dog with us this trip! We aren’t picky! We just expect places to be clean/good repair as our home away from home on vacation.

Great location, great accommodations!
Significant thought was put into the design, decor and supplies. The kitchen was well-equipped. We'll book this place again the next time we are in town.

Overall good stay.
Super clean and cozy. Small house is located in the alley behind a bigger house on a very busy street, but it was pretty quiet and a good yard for the dogs. I would say there are several holes in the fence where the dogs could potentially get out, but we did not intend to leave them there unsupervised so it was fine. It’s not completely located within walking distance of much so you would want to bring bikes if you don’t want to drive. Perfect for 2 people. The bed was super comfortable. The check in process could have been smoother.

Good location and Okay Room
Overall I would stay at this location at The Gateway again but not at this particular property. This location is walkable to the Gondola and especially River Run Village. In ski boots it is borderline walkable but doable. The shuttle stop is right outside the building and the shuttle works great if you time it right. The indoor pool and hot tub a really convenient and good.
The communication from the owner was very poor. I felt like I was bothering them the whole time. The sheets for the sleeper sofa were wadded up, visibly dirty, and had a VERY strong body odor. We asked for clean sheets. After going back and forth for 2 days with messages and them saying they brought them and they did not, we finally got clean sheets for the sofa halfway through our stay. It was gross. Also, there was an odd odor in the bathroom, something like dirty gym socks.
The main bed was comfortable. The HVAC worked well. The shower was good. There is a small refigerator, sink, and microwave. The Keurig coffee pot worked well. There was some coffee there for it and you may want to bring some of your favorites as well. Another good point is they didn't require any extensive checkout list.
If you need a TV then definitely look elsewhere. There's no TV service for the TV and YouTube nor YouTubeTV will work. It had nothing to do with our account (they definitely didn't have an account to use it with!). Something with the TV would not allow any licensed content which includes any kind of movie, TV shows, or sporting events. Only a non-licensed YouTube video was possible. I even factory reset the TV. Same! I don't know if this is because it's a gray market TV or what, but it doesn't work.
Overall, we had a great trip at this location but I couldn't recommend this place. Your experience may be different and if you try it I truly hope it is.

Family Ski Trip
This was a great place to stay for our family ski trip! We walked to the gondola with no problems, it was a reasonable walk. This condo was close and convenient to some restaurants and has a small convenient store in the lobby area which was very helpful. The hosts were very helpful and quick to reply, check in was easy and we had no issues, thanks for a great stay!

All went well at this location. Everything was clean, updated, and well thought out. The location was within walking distance of the gondola. The updated bathroom was wonderful . There are nice added touches such as, mood lighting, real dishes and utensils, and comfy blankets. I highly recommend this place. Thank you!
