Winter Break Getaway
We have rented in the Hideout the last 3 years and were looking for a bigger space this year, this house was perfect! The house was very clean and very spacious for our 3 families to stay in. The owner was very quick to respond when we contacted them about an issue with the icy driveway and was very accommodating allowing us to check in when we arrived early. The icy driveway was out of the owners control and they did attempt to get it taken care of but there was no salt available in any towns for them to purchase. The house was perfect for us to relax and cozy up in after a day of skiing and we enjoyed our stay.

Family vacation
Beautiful home that fit our whole family of 12 comfortably. We had a few issues at check in, but they were quickly taken care if by the property manager. The only issue we had was that the basement area is not air conditioned so it was quite warm especially at night even though the owner stated it is very cool down there.quitwarm

Weekend at the Hideout
Whole family (12) had an excellent time!! Property and location was perfect for our family getaway. Checkin process was a bit disorganized - no communication with property manager until she was called directly at her "other" job. But overall very happy.
