Exceeded ALL Expectations !!

The view is even more beautiful in person. I felt it was bigger than anticipated from the photos! The butler’s kitchen was incredible for hosting 18 girls in celebration of a bride to be! Every room was comfortable with its own bathroom. It was clean, had every appliance & kitchen necessity you may need. There are many games & amenities that allow guests to feel free to do what they want while still engaging with a group! It was such cozy cabin feel. The host replies so quickly & the check in and out process is so simple!This was the most perfect house to host a large party of girls for a bachelorette trip :) We could’ve stayed for weeks!

Excellent house and property manager

Excellent property, and extremely responsive property manager. The house is HUGE! We had a group of 11 guys and there was plenty of space for everyone. Also, the pictures don’t fully capture the breathtaking view from the main living area. We skied 3 days at Steamboat and the drive is very easy - about 10-15 minutes. Very easy check-in, and any minor issues were immediately addressed by the property management. Also, the house was very clean, the beds were very comfortable, and I think every bedroom has its own bathroom. If there is any complaint, the kitchen is slightly dated (electric stove), and a house that big should have larger bowls/serving platters for large group dinners. We will very likely rent again next year!

Nice place

The best thing about this property is the accessibility and attentiveness of Blake, the property manager. He was excellent.Overall, the house is very nice...clean, a bit dated, but nice. The location is excellent...short drive to skiing, town, etc. It accommodated 14-17 of us for a week, no problem. The grill was great. The hot tub was clean and warm. Some somewhat minor things that would make stays better include the following:1. More dish towels. There were three.2. More bath towels. Each room had only two.3. Towels for the hot tub. There were none, so we used our limited supply of bath towels.4. Another dishwasher is needed for a place this large.5. The coffee maker/pot is excellent but tiny; a larger one (or two for a house this size) would be ideal.6. More bedside lighting in working order is needed.7. Although there were heat pads on the short walk to the hot tub, they didn't cover the entire distance, so the walk from the porch to the hot tub was shaky at best.8. There apparently is heat tape on the roof to prevent ice dams, but it was not on or not working. The ice didn't effect us at all, but sitting in the hot tub and looking at all that ice just waiting to come down was mildly unnerving.9. The door to the hallway upstairs didn't close, so we had to plop a bag behind it to keep it closed at night.10. Another couch in the living room would accommodate more people.

Great space for groups

The property was spacious and there was a lot to do. We didn’t leave the property our whole stay. There was plenty of room for people. There are a few things that was hard for a big group. The water in the kitchen sink we could not get cold. It was only warm to hot and the warm water only came out as a slow drip. The heating element on the top oven didnt work. We were stuck with one oven for a pretty large group. The stove also didn’t work well. It was really challenging to cook for a large group at this property. Otherwise, our stay was great and we’d stay again but would plan for food differently unless appliances were serviced.

Better than the pictures!

My now husband and I found this VRBO to house our families/friends for our elopement weekend. We were looking for a house that would hold roughly 20 people, plus some small children. This was perfect- every single bedroom had a bathroom. The kitchen +chef's pantry gave us more than enough room for all of our groceries for a weekend. While we didn't elope at the house (neighbors obstruct views for photos), it was perfect for our after mini reception afterwards! Amazing property!!

Best house we’ve had in Steamboat!

We have been coming to Steamboat for over 30 years, and our family has grown and lodging needs have changed. For the last few years we have needed about 10 BR, and have stayed at some of the double houses (can rent both sides of the house). This worked much better for us bc we don’t really need two kitchens, two dining rooms, etc. Instead, with this house we got one large common space with a pool table, darts, room for playing games, etc. And the view from that large living room is the best we have ever had. Even before we left, we booked the house for next year!

Great Home

I was a little hesitant with Retretia because of all the bad reviews and low star rating I saw. BUT, after reading through them, I realized 99.9% of them were over people not getting refunds due to the pandemic. While I certainly understand that frustration, they were beyond crystal clear when we rented that there wouldn't be refunds issued for that, or weather, or whatever and recommended multiple times that I buy trip insurance. So I think most of these negative reviews are pretty unfair and unreasonable. We pulled the trigger and rented through them. What I can say is that during the entire stay, they were incredibly kind, responsive, and helpful. They addressed issues promptly. We had a broken hot tub during the majority of our stay, which was frustrating. But, that isn't their fault. They sent the repair folks out same day or next. They struggled to get it going, but again, I can't really fault Retretia for that. We've rented a ton of VRBO's. And there are usually some small issues with them. This was definitely the best experience I've had with a rental company thus far though as far as responsiveness. I can't speak for negative reviews about the quality of any particular rental. I guess I would say to look at those reviews separately. We stayed at Sky Valley Lodge, and it was very very nice. Spacious. Easily accommodated our very large party. Had more than ample parking. Beautiful views. It was clean. The decor was great. Easy access to town.
