Mike’s home was perfect for our annual cousins ski/snowboard weekend. The house was just as described and supplied with everything we needed. The backyard was an awesome bonus with a perfect sledding hill for the kids and adults! We had a great stay and plan to be back each year!

A hidden gem!

Everything was perfect and seriously exceeded all expectations. The seemingly endless number of rooms and bathrooms accommodated my large family, included modern and luxurious amenities (jet tub!), and long rolling hills in the back yard with a beautiful view. Don't pass up this hidden gem!
