Perfect Weekend With The Family
The inside was clean and well maintained. The kitchen was perfect and very well stocked for all our cooking needs. The beds were so comfortable, by far the best bed away from home I’ve ever slept on. There’s were so many games available and a lot of space so the different ages could hang out and have fun without interfering with others quality time. There was a teepee in the living room! The 7 year olds loved it. The amenities in the complex were perfect too. Very nice pool and mini golf was small but we had a blast!

Great House!
Our stay was great! House is great. Main living is all on one floor, spacious rooms, TV in every room. Our grandkids stayed with us and loved their room. Kitchen is well stocked with dishes and pans. And it was very clean. Owners were easy to communicate with. We’d definitely come back!

Best Family Ski Vacation
Just got back from our amazing stay at Danielle & Bill’s. We were 6 adults & 3 kids (11, 11, & 9). The pictures do not do this home justice- everything was immaculate & we had plenty of room to all spread out & have our own space when needed. The game room was awesome & we spent many hours down there playing games as a family. We came for skiing but also enjoyed lots of time relaxing at the house. Danielle & Bill were great hosts & we would definitely love to stay here again! Thanks so much for the wonderful memories!

Great summer stay at Masthope
We had a wonderful family vacation here. The basement area provides a great rainy day tournament center for the family. The owners are VERY quick to respond to any questions. We had NO issues while here. The home is very clean. We really like the air conditioning units. And the hot tub was the adult respite in the evenings. We highly recommend this rental.

Great House!
We had a wonderful stay in this house for the two rivers marathon. It comfortably fit 3 families of 4 and was very quiet. The house had everything you could ask for, tons of games for the kids and seating for all of the adults. We already are discussing coming back next year. The area is very beautiful as well. Thanks!

Great stay in Masthope
House was very family friendly for kids of all ages, in addition to arcade and game room type stuff the coloring books and board games were great for the younger crowd. Communication was very timely throughout and we enjoyed visiting Masthope in the winter for the first time. Thanks!

Ski house
I want to start by saying danielle and bill were amazing hosts! Their home was clean beds were comfortable. We were 4 adults and 5 children ages 5-11. Kids (and adults) had a blast in the game room. The mud room downstairs was awesome for when we got ready and when we got back to unload all of our ski stuff. Easily accessible to walk right up to the driveway and head straight to the slopes. The back room def made this home..... decorated so cute with a "homey" feeling btwn the bar poker table blue tooth speaker and plenty of room to relax on the comfortable couches def made this house enjoyable for the adults! If you are new to the area they have a binder that will give you all the info you need as well as a welcome packet and a noice bottle of wine! This was my first time renting on VRBO and I highly recommend staying in this home wether it's with friends or a family trip. The house has everything you need to cook meals (I brought ziplocks and some to-go containers-not provided). We added the hot tub which was a nice touch especially after hitting the slopes. Even the kids enjoyed it. Can't thank them enough for their hospitality and the fun memories that were made. Looking forward to renting from them again.
