    The house is amazing but needs better kitchen amenities. Pots and pans are falling apart, hardly any bowls. Can opener barely works. There are stones missing from the wall above the stove, siding missing on the back of the house and a patch in the master bedroom that needs to be painted. Fountains out of order, broken thermometer in sauna. Again, the house is amazing but for the price I would have expected better amenities.

    Great property. The fountain downstairs in the basement needs to be marked for no use. Someone turned the knob to check it out and it immediately smelled like a sewer backing up into the room. View was the best part.

    This property is amazing! From the moment you walk in, you are surrounded with beautiful Mountain views through floor to ceiling windows. Everything that you need is provided and the sheets were the softest! We enjoyed every extra - the game room, sauna, hot tub and the fireplaces. Highly recommend!

    Our family recently stayed at the Flying Eagle, and while there were many positives, there were also several drawbacks that affected our overall experience. Pros: Stunning Views: The views from the house are absolutely breathtaking and exceeded our expectations. Spacious Accommodation: The house was large enough to provide everyone with their own space while also offering ample common areas where we could all gather without feeling cramped. Cons: Maintenance Issues: Upon our arrival, the water heater servicing the downstairs area was not functioning. Although the hosting company promptly sent a handyman, the problem persisted until I personally discovered and turned on the water heater the next morning. The sauna was inoperative, with a note indicating it could only be heated to 3/4 of its maximum temperature to avoid tripping the breaker. The hot tub also failed to heat up, which was disappointing. Cleanliness Concerns: The bathrooms downstairs were not properly cleaned. The main shower had mold and an unpleasant odor, while the bathtub had mildew in the drain and a non-functioning drain stopper. Clean bathrooms should be a priority for any property management company, especially given the frequent use by guests. Uncomfortable Bedding: The king bed downstairs was extremely uncomfortable, with an old mattress that had a significant peak in the center, causing us to roll to the edges. While I didn't expect bran

    This was one of our best in state vacation. The home was in excellent condition. It was decorated for the Christmas Holiday and the kids loved it. It was so peaceful. The view was out of this world. It was such a beautiful sight and experience. The owners thought of everything. The kitchen was fully furnished, items were there to aid in washing clothes etc. We danced and had a great time. There are speakers in the ceiling in which you can connect to and listen to the music. I would highly suggest that you make sure to get there before night fall b/c it's extremely foggy and nearly impossible to see the road. The house is high on the mountain. Also get all you can get ( food, and personal need- wise) while you are out.. You definitely do not want to be traveling that narrow/ curvy road. Also it's not much around. It's not a tourism town. This is a definitely a great place if you are looking to escape and work on something or self. We loved it.
