Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was perfect for our families. There was plenty of room for everyone. The kitchen and utensils provided were better than we have had in the past. One of the front steps was broken in half and appeared others were rotting. We tried to avoid them for fear someone would fall. This needs to be addressed as soon as possible. Other than that the house was great.

Beautiful Cabin

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pros: *Beautiful cabin in the mountains *Amazing views from cabin*Lots of kitchen supplies Cons:*Construction at three different homes surrounding property. I know the owners can’t control this, but it’s something that should have been mentioned. Table saws, hammering and construction worker’s music blaring first thing in the morning till 5/6 pm in the evening. So sitting on the beautiful balcony with an amazing views with a table saw screeching isn’t that very relaxing. *When we first pulled up the trash cans were OVERFLOWING and trash had been scattered about (probably due to animals). We got there Saturday and told the rental company. The trash company picked up 3 days later. It was really smelling and you have to drive past it to get on and off the property... walking or driving. At one point, dogs were starting to come by and eat the trash. We had no place to put our trash since it was already overflowing. *The lightening in the kitchen was very dim. I don’t know what’s going on with that.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The beautiful lodge and location did not disappoint. We were 2 miles off the main road and it was so quiet and peaceful. Terry Peak was right above us and lots of trails to ride with our side by side. The property was clean and well maintained. Plenty of room for the 6 of us. Nice loft area for the kids to play games or watch TV. Spacious bedrooms and three bathrooms. Magnificent sunsets off the deck. Highly recommend the property and we had no need to contact the property manager. We'll keep this in mind for a future stay.

Family Road Trip

This is a very nice property, on a mountain road with beautiful views. The area is still under development with only a few homes on the mountain. The house is clean to sleep at but lacks normal courtesies, otherwise I would have accepted the offer to leave/refund despite being 9PM and over an hour from any decent hotel. We've rented nearly a dozen similar homes from VRBO over the years. When you spend to rent a home like this one, it should be with little or no compromise. The unfortunate part is everything you'll read about in the prior reviews and more still exists. I spoke with the manager and she almost immediately took a defensive posture despite the fact that most of the items were possibly prior renter or maintenance items that I figured had not have been communicated. Turns out the manager said the last group to stay were the owners. I got no apology but plenty of excuses. I'll list below what we found but its clear the mentality is that regardless of the price, what they provide is supposed to be...good enough. Bag of open pretzels left in upstairs TV area. McD's trash left in kitchen garbage. Coffee Table glass has multiple cracks (Mgr known) be careful with young children. Frying Pan handles get very hot and can burn! Grill cover was on the ground, brushes laying around (blamed on 70MPH winds) but wind doesn't turn the bottle on too. Did not use grill because its heavily rusted (blamed on SD weather, told to cover with foil and it will work fine) New England weather is no different. Repair it, have renters spray it with PAM but don't make it our problem. Kitchen facet is loose in the sink mounting. 4 light bulbs are out in the house. Ceiling fan in downstairs bedroom is filthy. Dead Flies in some windows but many more in lamp shades that point upward. You'll see the shadows in the dining room light. Very few spoons. Just 3 glasses (different sizes) and one jelly jar! Some Solo and old plastics cups but Wine glasses, goblets and shot glasses galore. Very few plates that are not chipped. (We just ran the dishwasher after each meal) Towels smell after one use, washed them, same issue. They are just old and hold odor so we washed them after each use. Foil is used in the bottom of oven to keep it clean but it isn't replaced regularly. Oven fully smoked up at only 325 degrees when preheating it for warming bread. Fireplace remote doesn't work, even with new batteries. ETC... $600 at Target and a vacuum would fix most of this.

Family Ski Trip

We enjoyed the stay at this beautiful house. It was a 2 car garage, but the one side had a skid loader with snow blower in it so we had to park one vehicle outside, which we survived, nothing tragic. The hot tub was ready when we pulled up. The kids loved the upstairs to call their sleeping spots. The kitchen was great, and yes as I read in one review the pan we used was not a not stick, again we survived. All in all this place was a great place to stay.

Easy seclusion.

I over analyze. This was the right choice. Perfect for 2-8 people. Bring a good nonstick pan, paper towels, laundry detergent, kitchen wash cloths, tissues, zip lock baggies. a bar of soap, and quarters. I own a ranch in the southern hills, this was a nice change of pace. If you are looking for a house in this area, quit looking, book it. Thanks, Clayton

This cabin was everything and MORE than expected. From the cabin itself, the hot tub, the views …. I could go on and on AND ON about this place. The pictures and the info just don’t do it justice. Come and see this gem for yourself! We barely left the cabin our whole stay, there was plenty to do. Very well stocked, don’t worry about needing anything during your stay. We Fell in love with this space for sure. I have told so many about it and we will be back without a doubt!! Thank you for sharing this amazing place with us.

UTV TRIP

Nice place for group of friends to go riding. Very secluded area, great views! But since we were pulling trailers with UTVs on them it would have been nice to have been warned about the work being done to the main gravel road that leads to the house. We had checked out the location when we were there in June and it was a nice gravel road at that time. They might also want to have housekeeping deal with all the dead flies in all the windowsills and light fixtures. For such a big house kitchen it was very limited on dishes, silverware, bowls, etc. Would consider staying again, especially if the main road ends up getting paved.

Property was very beautiful. The views are great. Everything worked great and as described. One thing to note was there no A/C. Which when i booked never even thought to make sure there was A/C. Not a deal breaker and it does cool down nice in the evening. Overall a 5 star property.
