Lebanese Club Retreat

This cabin was the perfect stay for us. The cabin was spacious, but at the same time intimate which gave an inviting feeling. I’ve had the Lebanese Club retreat happen 4 years in a row and this was our favorite by far! It was so close to the village and everywhere we needed to go…I highly recommend!

Family Getaway

Great location close enough to skiing and downtown, but away from ski traffic. Beautiful log woodwork, fireplaces, and large windows. Walking the neighborhood, I noticed it was the largest home available for bigger groups. Local contact responded quickly when we had questions. Some items listed were not working.

Perfect Getaway

We stayed here last weekend and everything was great. The location is perfectly located near the village/dining and shopping centers. The house is big enough for 13 of us, with room to spare. The game room kept us entertained most of the time. There are multiple TVs throughout the house. Heater and hot water worked great! Some beds are a little on the firmer side, but not a big issue. Check in was easy. We were checked on multiple times by the owner and host. Overall, we all enjoyed our stay and will highly recommend this house.

Cozy cabin

The home is clean and beautiful. The kids enjoyed the game room, especially the pool table. There are as plenty of room in the house for 10 people. Unfortunately the hot water was out and we were unable to take a hot shower or bath. This was disappointing because The jets and fireplace by the bathtub was a main feature. We chose this cabin because of this bathtub. Other then that it was a great stay.

After christmas stay

Our stay at this cabin had its ups and downs. The location was great—close to town and nestled in a cute and cozy setting. The cabin itself had a charming vibe, and we appreciated the variety of games available for entertainment. However, many of the games were quite worn, and the pool table sticks lacked tips, which made it difficult to fully enjoy.One major issue was the hot water/ tankless water heater. With seven of us needing to shower, it was frustrating that the water stayed lukewarm at best, but on average, cold throughout most of our stay. When trying to solve the issue, the owner told us that we should try to pull water from multiple sources, ie. run the washing machine and multiple showers and sinks at once. This did not help the issue. The owner did stop by to troubleshoot the issue and was fairly responsive, but his responses to our problem made us feel like the problem was our fault and that “all people prefer different temperatures of water in the shower,” and that “we just need to increase the demand of water throughout the house.”The cabin could use some maintenance. The kitchen had a cabinet door hanging off its hinges, and there were leftover food items from previous tenants in the fridge. Also, the master bath shower door didn’t fully close.Overall, while the cabin was cozy the lack of hot water and general wear and tear significantly impacted our experience. With some updates and better communication, this property could be a much more enjoyable stay
