    We enjoyed our stay, you need to give directions on using the stove. The address and driving directions were not clear.The view was spectacular and we are interested in renting again next year.

    Good value, we would definitely come back. Even though you have to travel up a steep and winding mountain road, the location is just off a main road and really easy to find. The interior is beautiful, and the view is amazing. Everything is comfortable, but there was one thing that really stood out… the kitchen. So many times we have rented properties that were poorly stocked or had low quality cookware, like you’re lucky if you even get salt and pepper or the pans are falling apart. The cookware was good quality and had most of what you need, and there was a cabinet with several spices and cooking oils. There is even an extra spot of land on the side that is great for kids, because it backs up to a beautiful rock face and has a nice seating area. So all in all it had a beautiful interior, great seating areas, great fireplace and TV, above average kitchen and good location. The one thing it lacks is a hot tub that you don’t have to drive to, and taking trash to the community dumpster is a task. Everyone loved the place and had a great time!

    Four couples stayed here the week we volunteered at Samaritan's Purse.The house is beautiful and everything was clean.All the bedrooms were nice and the beds comfortable. The sitting area is very inviting and we spend time there every morning and evening. The kitchen was adequately stocked with dishes, utensils, and small appliances.We arrived during the 5 snowstorm of 12/8/2025. The road up to the gate had not been plowed yet. Same for the roads in the community. 4WD trucks were able to get to the house, but not an AWD Rav4. The roads were plowed by 5pm and everything was good. Just to say, they're not kidding when they say 4WD is 'recommended'. (We're from Pittsburgh, so no strangers to driving in snow.)Roads were well maintained for the rest of our stay.We also had very high winds on Wednesday night and the deck doors didn't seal very well and they whistled all night, but no issue keeping the house warm.Overall, this is a great house with a fantastic view of the valley.

    This is a beautiful home with an absolutely incredible View. We had everything we needed and enjoyed our stay tremendously. My only suggestions would be for the management company to consolidate their check-in information into one document, not three separate emails. Also, providing only two kitchen trash bags for a five night stay for a family of 8 was not enough. I understand renters buying paper towels, foil, etc, but trash bags? Overall though, or stay was very nice.

    Overall a nice home and floor plan. There were some cleanliness issues. Dead bugs ( stink bugs)on floors and in light fixtures and pink mold in master shower. Dirty and dusty wood blinds. There needs to be more lighting on driveway for night arriving. The trash bins were quite a distance from the unit. We enjoyed our stay.
