Spacious and well-equipped place

Lovely stay for a family vacation. Lots of amenities and easy communication with owner. Fastest access to Happy Valley required a fairly steep boot pack up to the path (and fairly steep walk/slide down for ski out!) which may be challenging for some. Ski in down to Plaza/Ridge Rocket was super accessible and fun!

Beautiful Ski Condo

This condo was very well suited to our group. My husband and I, our three adult children and two of their adult friends. The location on the hill was also very good. Communication with owner was prompt and clear. Even though they were on holidays they responded to questions quickly and helpfully. Information in the welcome binder was accurate and suggestions were helpful. We highly recommend using this as a resource upon arrival.Condo was immaculate and quiet. The condos on either side were occupied but noise was never an issue.Wonderful to have private hot tubKitchen was very well appointed in excellent condition with plenty of room for your own groceries. We have stayed in other "ski in; ski out" condos where the "ski out" is to a secondary lift. This "ski out" is directly to the Ridge Rocket Express. Ski In brings you through the village and virtually to where you started (maybe 50 steps to your door).The layout of the condo was well suited to our group with two rooms with ensuites upstairs and a bunk room, den with sofa bed and bathroom in the lowest level. (main floor was kitchen, and living room but no bedroom or bathroom). Foot access to the village is a choice of walking up the ski in or walking down a ski out to the gondola that takes you to the village. We did both without problem and found walking up more convenient. For anyone with mobility issues, it could be quite challenging to access by foot.We HIGHLY recommend this condo

Great Space for a Ski in Ski out week.

We had a great stay, loved the two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and separate bedroom and bathroom in the basement. The living space and kitchen had great space for hanging out, playing games and relaxing. We loved that they had a pantry for our food💜 Also great closet and dresser space. Having the two living spaces was amazing for the kids. The ski bench, hooks and ski map In the garage are brilliant. We would defiantly book again. Renee and Alex

Perfect Family Vacation

We arrived on Sunday February 6 and stayed until Saturday February 12. The property was as advertised, well laid out and clean. Gregg and Lisa, the property owners, were in contact with us several times before our arrival to ensure a quick and easy check in. Gregg called us the evening we arrived to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. We had an amazing stay, the ski school was fantastic for our kids (ages 5, 5, and 7) and the property location was perfect. It’s a true ski in/ski out, with quick access to either the gondola or Plaza Chair. We were extremely comfortable staying here and would absolutely recommend this property to friends and family. The owners clearly care about their guests and the property, and we are very grateful for their hospitality. Thank you!
