    This is such a great property for a big family. Online it says it sleeps 8 but you can definitely sleep 12 comfortably. Very clean and well stocked with everything.

    Plenty of room for our family of 7. Kitchen was well stocked. Love having a tv room upstairs as well as a basement area for pool playing and relaxing as well. Close to slopes and town.

    We enjoyed our stay thoroughly. The location and house were excellent. Everything was as described. Nothing fancy, bit everything needed was close at hand. The surprise bonus was the free neighborhood shuttle that would pick us up from the front door and take us to the slopes.

    The house was as advertised and dealing with the host was very easy. The location was excellent and getting to the slopes via shuttle was easy and convenient.

    Had a wonderful time at Chuck's Yacht. Couldn't ask for a better location with access to the free Mountaineer Shuttle and a five minute drive to Palisades. The house provided a great set up for our two families of four in that the kids and adults had separate hang-out spaces and lots of comfortable spots for sleeping. Would definitely return!

    We mostly just used the place as somewhere to sleep and didn't spend much time there. But the place was great. Beds were comfy, bathrooms were nice, place was clean! Only comment was the basement room had a little odor. But you didn't notice it after 30 seconds. Would definitely stay again!
