    We had an amazing stay with a seamless process from begging to end. The house is very clean, cozy and warm with lots of room for everyone to spread out. Location gave us flexibility in what we wanted to do as skiing hills and restaurants nearby. Check in and check out process was very easy and great communication by the host all through the process of our stay. Would highly recommend!

    I am a repeat visitor to this wonderful house in the mountains. It is just great. It has something for everyone. Plenty of space for anyone who wants to sit on the deck, get cozy and read a book, watch football or play ping pong. The kitchen is fully equipped and there is a lovely large table for long happy dinners. I recommend it highly.

    The worst part of our visit was that it was only 3 nights everything else was perfect. Shady Pines is a fantastic holiday home. It was clean and very ready for visitors. The kitchen is wonderful especially if you are planning to cook at home and relax around a big dining table. The perfect back deck is where we started and finished our mornings and evenings. We will definitely stay here again in the future.
