Cute little condo

It was a clean, roomy, and comfortable condo for a weekend getaway. So close to the beautiful lake harmony and close to lots of hiking trails. We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful home in Fall

We loved this place! Was perfect for a short weekend trip with my kids. We loved the close restaurants but could have easily cooked. Beds are super comfortable.

Peaceful in the woods

It was really great. Me and my family loves it. We specially liked the 3rd bedroom where the bung beds were. Loved the kitchen and living as well. The washrooms were very neat and clean. Specially loved the lake view so much. It was really mesmerizing.

Great location and lots of amenities!

My family and I had a wonderful stay. The house had everything we needed and was well stocked. It was a short walk to the lake area and heated pool, especially since we ended up with a cool, cloudy week, the kids enjoyed the heated pool. There were lots of lawn games and things to do in the community area.

Stayed for my Bachelorette Weekend!

This house was exactly what we needed. It was clean, tidy, and had plenty of space. There were lots of clean towels and tiny bottles of shampoo and conditioner and bars of soap for us to use. It was a very cute house and conveniently close to a tavern where we had dinner and drinks. Definitely recommend!

Perfect Winter Break Getaway

My family and I had an amazing trip. The condo was updated and clean. Perfect amount of space for a family of 5 and so close to the mountain. A quick drive to restaurants as well, you can’t beat this location! They provided all of the amenities we needed for the week as well. We will definitely be planning another stay!!

Great location and very clean

The property was very clean and had everything we needed. It even had bath products like shampoos and body wash and fresh towels, like in hotels. The bathrooms were new and renovated. Everything worked really well. The checkout process was effortless. The condo was super close to the mountain and very convenient for skiing. I highly recommend this property.

Good location, in accurate description

Property was advertised as having a wood burning fireplace. Upon arrival discovered it was replaced with an electric insert which didn’t work. All communication was through a 3rd party rental group which was frustrating at times because they were unfamiliar with the nuances of the property and had to ‘submit a ticket’ when I had a question.

Heat issues

I liked the house and location. The house was mostly clean, ceiling fans need to be cleaned. The heat was the main issue. We arrived Friday night after 6:30 p.m. and couldn't get the heat above 65. Messaged the property management the next morning because it was only 60 in the house on the main floor. This continued the entire stay, that the heat continued to be an issue. I contacted the management company 3 times from Saturday morning to Sunday morning when we left. They did send maintenance out but he couldn't see a problem with the heat at that time because we had the oven on and the fireplace, which did nothing. He said to just turn it up high so it would heat up but every morning it was back down to 60 to 61

Hmo

The stay was not the best. I {70 yrs } was there with my wife [70 yrs} my mother in law [98 Yrs} my son and daughter-in-law and 5 of my grandkids [16 to 2 yrs}. And all i got was a headache from the HMO and the home owner and almost evicted twice. If it was not of the security and the people of Vacasa who help with my stay. If i would have known that was a HMO, I would have never book the stay. HMO are nothing more then a pain in the ass. As per the security my kids was the best and had no issues with them.

Overall nice place for skiing at big boulder

I’ve stayed in this development 5 times and it’s great for skiing big boulder. Pros - nicely updated. Nice bathrooms Nice furniture and adequate kitchen amenities. Cons - hot water runs out in a few minutes. Couch is broken and and held up with wooden boards in one section. Management company gave wrong door code and wrong information about linens.

Excellent stay and super thought amenities

The home far exceeded our expectations - super clean, crisp bedding, amazing baths and thoughtful amenities like loads of clean towels, laundry soap pods, and even Dove branded bathroom products! We would hands down stay here again. The only down side which impacted our ability to cook was a lack of pans. Only pan was a 4-inch one, and now brownie pan or anything of that sort. They did have an electric griddle but that's impossible to use for eggs, pancakes and bacon for the 6 people we had.

Nice place!

Place was great! Updated, had everything you needed, good location. The only downside was the couch. It seemed broken and was not comfortable. When you sat in the corner seat, the whole chaise cushion moved. The other seats sank in and moved easily. We also found a Miller lite can in the bedroom dresser drawer upstairs. Overall, the place was clean (besides the beer can haha) and had great amenities!
