The Modern Ski House was the perfect place for our family stay for our daughter’s wedding. The house had every amenity we could ask for. It was to prepare and serve family meals with a great kitchen and enough seating for 11 people. The bedrooms were so comfortable and especially nice to have 3 full bathrooms and a powder room. We enjoyed the sauna and the walking paths nearby were wonderful to allow the children to release their energy. Thank you for making our weekend so enjoyable.

What’s not to love!?!

This house was so beautiful and even tastefully decorated for Christmas. 🎄❤️ Our family was able to comfortably gather, watch football, make holiday cocktail/mocktails, wear matching Christmas pj’s, and play games. This house provided everything you could possibly need. When we arrived, the beds all had a welcoming little stack of towels, makeup wipes, and toothbrush kits. Definitely a five star rental. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. We hope to come back again and again.

We had a convention at the DECC for work and needed a nice place to stay where we could relax and spend time together away from work. We found that here! Very good use of space for the footprint of the house and stocked like you would expect a house to be. Everyone in the group was very happy with their stay.

What a cool idea! We really want to come back in the winter! The only negatives were that there wasn’t any blinds on the main floor so everyone could look in, one of the showers wasn’t clean, and there were dead flies scattered in places.
