Two minutes from the trails/slopes. We had a great stay and property was ideal for kids and adults.
We had a great stay! The house was everything it said in the description and is such a great location. The owners are great to work with as well!
Fine place, as advertised. We had a great time.
This was the perfect location for our family ski trip to Brighton. It was so close to the resort that we walked to and from everyday, we even went back for lunch! The place was the perfect size for our family of 5. The kids loved the hidden loft area to sleep in (2 mattresses on the floor with a hidden ladder to get there). The entryway was perfect to come in and dump all your gear. The couch was plenty big and the kitchen had everything you needed. If we go back to Brighton we will definitely stay here again.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Great Western house had everything our party of 4 adults needed - plenty of room, a hot tub, easy parking, great views. But perhaps its best asset was the proximity to Brighton Ski Resort. It may in fact be the closest residence to the lifts, especially Great Western Express. We could practically ski home for lunch. We could also easily walk to the Solitude Nordic Center. Communication with the property manager was excellent - they provided ample information in advance, had a thorough guest book with more details, checked in on us while we were there, responded quickly to questions and requests, and even brought us some mustard! We liked how guests were requested to remove shoes before entering the living areas, which helped to keep the place very clean. The hot tub was a bit small (barely comfortable for 2 although we all sat in it together) but it had a spectacular view of the slopes at Brighton. As with many vacation homes, the kitchen knives were a bit dull, and one pot wasn't clean, and some plates and bowls still had some residue stuck on after presumably going through the dishwasher. But those were very minor concerns compared with the overall favorable experience. We would definitely rent this place again if returning to Brighton or Solitude during ski season.

Although the place had been missed during the cleaning schedule, the rental company made things right and reimbursed us without hesitation. They worked with us and were extremely upset. Other than that one negative, there were many positives. The house was well stocked with bedding, towels, kitchen utensils, and detergent. The beds were firm and comfortable and the sofa was large and also comfortable. The location made it easy to walk to the slopes and Molly Greens! The manager was attentive and responded within minutes to any questions. The only suggestion is to purchase two new duvet covers. Will definitely stay here again!
Enjoyed the proximity to Brighton and the lifts!
Terrific stay, from the pre-stay communication to check out. The location was absolutely amazing. You can ski all the way down to literally across the street. Easy access to bother Solitude and Brighton which we skied both of over three days. Kitchen was super well stocked, hot tub was perfect. In general everything was about as nice as we’ve experienced at a VRBO.

The 1st floor load-out place was perfect for containing the snow (it snowed every day and night). Kitchen was well-stocked with typical needs. Hot tub was clean and hot. The location can’t be beat. I would definitely choose this place again.
