This home was perfect for a holiday.
We stayed at this house for five nights with our four adult children and their partners and friends. We had the best time ever. The walk from the house to the mountain was reasonably short. The house was stocked with everything you could need for this day. The finishes in the home were top quality including the appliances. And the pool table in the garage was an added bonus!

Very good, not great. The place was not very clean overall when we arrived. Empty beer cans all around the hot tub. The garbage shed was overflowing with garbage bags. Vacuuming was poor, particularly in the kitchen. Alot of electronics that required explanation and no explanation was provided.

Large comfortable home that is a short walk to up Forest Rd. to ski down to Lionshead. Lovely home and very comfortable beds. Furniture could use some updating but that aside would highly recommend this home. Vail Management was very responsive and helpful throughout our two week stay.

Relaxing at its finest. Beautiful home in prime location, close enough to all the fun and far enough to have privacy.
As a large revolving group this property fit our needs perfectly. The house is spacious enough to ensure everyone can gather or get privacy when they want. The pictures do not do it justice! The kitchen is fully equipped and will meet the needs of the most discerning home cook. The bedrooms are spacious and very comfortable. The back patio is terrific. The pictures don't show it well but its tiered - firepit sitting area outside the master, come down a few steps and the hot tub is right there - its open on two sides and you look up into the aspens that tower above! Then down a few steps to where the outdoor grill is and the entrance into the sunroom. Can't say enough good things about the location - wonderful walking distance to Lionshead and Vail Village - catch BerryPicker for a challenging hike up to Vail Peak! Everyone was sorry to leave but we made great memories.

Great home, terrible management, no soundsystem and fake photos of hot tub
We stayed here from Jan 12-16, 2 main issues
The photos show the hot tub on the upper deck, where it is nice and open with views of trees. The hot tub is actually on the lower back deck, jammed in between the retaining wall and house so it feels like you are in a cave.
The sound system did not work when we arrived. The CD player was broken and although the house was wired with speaker we could not get them to work. We called management and they sent over and friendly and informed tech guy who worked on it for an hour, he was not able to fix it. I called management company the following day to tell them speaker still were not working, they did not seem to care or know what to do. Our entire stay we were not able to play music in the house which was a huge disappointed. More importantly, I don’t think there were any plans to actually fix or figure out what was wrong with speakers that following guest will have the same problem.
