Winter weekend

This house is perfect for a large family with kids. Plenty of space and lots of fun activities from a game room, which can entertain the young and old, to an outside play fort with a slide and swings. There is plenty of dining seating. Not only was the owner very responsive to my questions, the Sky Valley property manager was very helpful. It was a great weekend with wonderful memories!

We loved our stay!

We had a beautiful time at this home, tucked away in the mountains! We had a large group of friends with kids of all ages and everyone had an amazing time! The little playground outside was wonderful and kept the Littles entertained for hours. We had a lot of rain, so we didn’t get to enjoy the porch as much as we hoped but Everything was so wonderful! A smooth check in and check out process, and the host was wonderful at letting us know what was available locally, traffic cameras to look for when you’re driving through different towns, and where to go for groceries before you start the climb up sky Valley Mountain. Would definitely return!

Fantastic Property!

We stayed here for a week. Our group was composed of 8 adults and 9 kids (aged between 3 - 15). Let me tell you that this property did NOT disappoint. First of all, the location is great, right on the golf course, views of the mountains and just phenomenal. The house had EVERYTHING you need to make your stay as if you are home. We brought toiletries, paper towels and other personal items, but this house had it all so we did not have to use our own. The game room was the BEST part. Kept our kiddos entertained the whole time. There's even a waterfall with a nice short mile hike in the neighborhood with access to a fitness center, golf course, pool, hot tub, sauna, etc. I will DEFINITIVELY come back!

Nice property, but needed cleaning and updated appliances

The home was in a good location, fairly secluded, and was large enough to accommodate my rather large family. If you're looking for a vintage cabin feel, this home had it. However, we heard noises of animals crawling the walls one night and the place wasn't very clean when we arrived. We noticed clumps of hair in the shower drains, dust and dirt around the house, dead bugs in windowsills, and some of the kitchen appliances were dirty and could use updating. We ended up having to do quite a bit of cleaning ourselves when we arrived. Otherwise, the view in the living room/dining room was amazing.
