Thank you for the stay. The property was very nice and clean.I wanted to share some feedback regarding our experience. The kitchen could have been better stocked with a few more items, and it would have been helpful to have Nespresso pods provided for the first morning. Additionally, we found that the heat distribution was uneven; the two downstairs bedrooms were uncomfortably warm, while the master bedroom on the middle level remained very cold.All and all we had a nice time at the property.

Cozy, comfortable and convenient

The property was absolutely perfect for our needs and so convenient to Northstar Village. Even though it’s not in the actual village (it’s across the main street and a few streets over - and no covered parking) the amenities are, so it’s convenient to head straight from slopes to hot tub. There was some extra steps to check in process that we aren’t used to with VRBO, but easy enough to get through. Overall, we were very happy and would love to return.
