Great home, wonderful vacation, not ski in/out
We gave this home 5 stars due to beautiful home and great hot tub. But took 3 days to find a way to ski back to intersection, then walk. Even ski "accessible" would take great snow conditions. Also, spoke with management about counting sleeper sofa (2) when mattress in poor condition. We purchased a memory foam topper to avoid hitting bar support.

Nice place but way over valued
This place was nice, but a few things were really lacking. Mainly the management company isn't great. We tried to do an earlier check-in than 5 PM since we were arriving with young kids jet lagged. They didn't really seem to care to help us out, and we didn't even hear back from them. We even arrived earlier to drop off our bags and saw the place was already clean and ready, but no word from the management company. There were some broken items and all the beds were very uncomfortable, which is probably the most disappointing part of the booking. When we arrived there was a broken kettle but took them 3 days to supply a new one. Just another example, they supplied the cheapest, harshest toilet paper. Also there is no smart TV and the universal remote is a real pain to use.
Besides that the house is nice and in a good location, but I think you can find much better value in other places.

Cabin with a view
Four adults and a two year old stayed for a week. Easy to find, easy check in, super clean, and comfortable! Would stay again.

Wonderful slope side house!
This house was perfect for our two family vacation- plenty of space, great amenities and the cleanliness was a ten. The location on the mountain is perfect- close to the lodge and a short walk to jump on the trail. We'd highly recommend this spot, as the accommodations were and service was impeccable.

Great family ski trip
Overall awesome property. Great view, great location. House has everything you could ask for. Only negative, and this was disclosed, is that it is not true ski in/out. You have to trek down a deep snowy hill and back up a snowy embankment to a bridge. This is fine for athletic adults, however probably not with young kids as we have. We drove our kids to bottom of bridge and hiked up from there. As long as you know this up front, it’s great!

Incredible property and experience
We very much enjoyed our stay at the 9 happy trails property. Given this was in the COVID era... I couldn't have been happier with how incredibly clean the property was and how professional the management company was as well. It made us feel very comfortable with taking a break to this house given all of the crazy going on around us. The property had everything needed. Only downside (if you could even call it that) was that there is no ice maker, but we were able to buy ice at the store and keep it in the freezer. The entire stay was outstanding. The property management company even offered to pick up trash in a social distanced way during our stay as we couldn't find where to put the trash in the garage. We were very impressed by the entire experience and we hope to stay at the property again in the future! Highly recommend for 1-2 families. We had only 4 of us and it was very spacious for all to have their own rooms.
