Important camera note Your current description says cameras are inside the common lobby, second-floor lobby, and third-floor lobbies. Before keeping that on Vrbo, I would verify whether Vrbo allows indoor cameras in shared/common areas for your property type. If not, those cameras should be disabled for Vrbo bookings or removed from guest-accessible indoor areas. For Vrbo-safe listing language, I would only use: No indoor cameras or recording devices are located inside guest accommodations, bedrooms, bathrooms, or private interior guest spaces. Exterior cameras may monitor entrances, parking areas, driveway areas, and shared outdoor access points. Noise monitoring devices may measure decibel levels only and do not record conversations.

My husband and I only stayed one night but to wake up and see the beautiful mountains was unforgettable. We sat on the little balcony and drank a cup of coffee. It was so quiet and peaceful there. A great cozy getaway!
Wonderfully remote and quiet. Great view from the room and the observation deck. Saw a Mama Bear and 3 cubs and two other bears down on the golf course! Bed was comfy and room was spacious. Bathroom could use better lighting over the sink.
Overall great place. Clean, comfortable, quiet, convenient access. HOA needs to do more upkeep.Jacuzzi does not work but I don’t remember if it was advertised.Overall very good!
