Beautiful space! Actually looks cuter than the outside pics. Inside is quite nice.Walking distance to the slopes, but a little map or directions would help.
This cottage is both cozy and comfortable. It was nice and quiet and close to all the things we wanted to do during our stay. The kitchen was well appointed and the beds were comfortable. An overall win!

Weekend getaway
Everything was great. Kitchen was stocked well. Beds were comfy. The only negative was that the fireplace stopped working on the second day and the taking out the trash rule all the way to the dump place was not convinient.
Short walk to ski lift. Decor outdated, nice fireplace. Limited seating for dining. Comfortable beds, small master shower, property not maintained very well, upstairs shower dangerous and glass door fell off. Overall comfortable.
We loved this VBRO. It was perfect for our family of 4. The lift was easily accessible, just a short walk before you put on skis. You come off the hill right at the parking spot for the unit. Some of the other units at the resort have a longer trek, so this was nicely located for easy access to the hill. It was a beautiful home, very clean, comfortable beds. We had a great time! It snowed a lot during our stay and they were quick to plow the road and shovel our walkway, which was a nice surprise.
Like other reviews, you do have to hit the security office first to pick up the key, which isn't the most convenient, but that appears to be for all the units at this resort. Unsure what you'd do after hours. We also had a hard time finding where to put our garbage when we left. The parking for this unit is one condo over, so a little more work if you have any physical issues. This was a not a problem for us. This was one of the few units we saw that did not have a hot tub. But there was a fire pit where the hot tub would sit, which the others didn't appear to have. So depends on your preference.
It sleeps six (2 on hide-a-bed) but would be crowded with that many in the winter. Even for four, they could use some more seating. The couch comfortably holds three, then there is an accent chair that isn't very functional and the two table chairs. We happened to toss in some camp chair for outside and used those inside to watch some games and a movie.
Overall the stay was great! Super clean upon arriving and the app made it easy to keep track of everything we needed to know. Beds were comfy and the kitchen had everything we needed. Only bummer was the fireplace not working and the couch was hard to get comfortable on. Thank you for the hospitality!
Our second time staying at this beautiful cabin.We were there during the week both stays and it was so quiet and relaxing. We definitely would recommend.
Was happy with our cabin. It suited our needs and was just the right size.
Was very easy to find and was easy to communicate with vacation rental management. If we ever need to rent again in the area we would definitely do so again.
My husband and I wanted a quiet little relaxed honeymoon, and that’s exactly what we got. Beautiful views, wonderful people, and the beauty of a peaceful getaway. Thank you so much for having us
