The home is beautiful, Took my Grand Children ages 20 - 26, 7 of Us. Plenty of room. Our days were spent in Red river ski area and town.

Views were wonderful, no snow, except on the top of mountains. temps got up to 60*f during the day and cooler at night. Host was available at all times. We look forward to returning with a group large enough to fill the place.

Two Extremes

Upon arrival it was obvious the house had not been cleaned since the kitchen was dirty, bedsheets were scattered on the floor, etc. Our three families spent the first day of our stay moving our stuff back and forth between two houses, so there is no 5-star review here. However, once we were settled, the property was, as promised, located in a quiet, beautiful valley with excellent views. If you can be sure the house would be cleaned upon arrival, I would definitely recommend it.

The perfect place even in the snow

This was a beautiful house easily accessible even in the snow. The driveway was plowed each time it snowed. There was plenty of room for our group of 9 to spread out. The short drive back to Red River was easy as the roads remained plowed as well. Communication with Mrs. Lisa was great, she even checked in to ask how our week was going. This was the perfect place for our stay for our skiing trip and we intend to return.

Beautiful Cabin!

We enjoyed our stay so much. Tons of hanging space for coats, coveralls, etc. washer and dryer to get that snow gear clean too! Our favorite part was cooking in the kitchen then relaxing on the back deck next to the fire pit each evening listening to all the animal sounds. Lisa checked in on us and has been nothing but great! Would highly recommend this cabin for family get togethers.

You Have to Stay Here!

Each year this property provides us the space for a growing group of old college friends to get together, relax and enjoy the mountains. We had plenty of room to park 4 trucks with side x side trailers and there was 7 of us and all had their own bed. We had a couple of others that brought their wives and other family members that stay elsewhere, but we entertained 13 for dinner one night without feeling cramped. Thank you Lisa for great communication and checking on us during the trip.

Peak Aspen color!

We stayed for our 20th anniversary. It was exactly as described. Easy to find, a few minutes from town, quiet, cozy, and spacious. The check in process was a breeze. The property owner/manager was quick to reply when we accidentally locked ourselves out of the house. We were short on toilet paper, no kleenex or laundry soap. No biggie, we bought and left in the house for the next people. Pay in forward VRBO style.

This home was set in a gorgeous location, the perfect distance from town. Though there are other houses, the setting makes you feel secluded. The view of the mountains was amazing! The large windows and decks provided the opportunity to enjoy the view and watch the quaking aspens and tall pines. The house worked well for our family of twelve. Will definitely try to stay again if in the area.
