A hidden gem

We were in town for a short family ski weekend and this place is a hidden gem!! We walked into what felt like the sweetest house that smelt glorious. You immediately felt like you were at home. The decor is gorgeous!! The attention to detail was amazing. There was also a gift basket in the kitchen with essentials that may have been forgotten by a busy family while packing not to mention the smores kit which we all loved. We will definitely be back!! I’m also going to be telling my friends here about this house. Thank you so much!!
