Awesome Family Condo at Schuss
We had a wonderful experience during our 4 day family stay. The condo was spacious, and the three levels provided good separation for three couples and their children, but had great living/dining/kitchen space for when we all wanted to be together. Also this is one off the few places I found with AC on all levels, which turned out to be a necessity the week we stayed. Host is courteous, friendly, and responsive. Check in/ check out was a breeze. Looking forward to staying again!

Nice house in the middle of the woods..
Location was great. It was close to everything that we needed to get to. Great space for all the family. Maybe take a look at the first step on the stairs going up, too narrow a few of Us took a fall going down. Kitchen faucet pressure was too low But overall it was great.

Disappointing
Our stay began on the wrong foot when we arrived at the house on a 96* afternoon to find that not only was there not the central air we were told there would be, the 3 window units that were the cooling for the entire house weren’t even installed. We went on to find that there wasn’t working tv/cable, the large deck was unsafe due to broken and soft boards, the master toilet wasn’t flushing and much to my 12 year old nephew’s dismay, the large arcade game shown in the listing didn’t work. There continued to be other issues during our stay. The only reason I gave 3 stars is because the house was spacious - which was perfect for our large family and the property manager was quick to respond to my messages and did offer compensation for our troubles. However, I would not rent this house again.

Good renovations
The property is clean and appears to have been recently renovated. The management of this property seems to need improvement. There are remotes everywhere, dvd players randomly located, and it was challenging to get things to work. The large arcade game was in a photo in the ad and also did not work. Seems it just needs a little TLC on a regular basis.

Excellent chalet
The house was prefect for our extend family ski trip! The cousins all shared the upstairs room and each sets of adults had their own space. There was room for people to hang out separately or together. It was 5 minutes to the slopes and about 10 minutes into town. We come up skiing often to this area and this will now be our favorite house to rent!

Would not recommend. Only reason for any good rating is due to quick response when contacted!
The checking time was 4pm but Vrbo listed time was 3pm. Upon arrival the place was not cleaned at all. Stuff on carpets, Dinning table, floors, sofas everywhere including dirty tissues on floor, and bathrooms not cleaned either. During Covid19 years this did not start the stay off right. The Property contact person did respond right away and sent someone over to clean. When she did clean you can see and she confirm that the person who came to clean did not do anything at all. She just swept the kitchen area and got a good pile of food crumbs and dirty. I understand these days good help is hard to find but cleanliness does not have to take a back seat during these times. There is a typo in your address that you give for the location Please correct it as well. Overall the only good thing was the quick response of the contact person but due to lack of cleanliness I would not recommend this place to others and will not be coming back as well. Sorry feel bad leaving this review but nothing was compensated about the issues we had when there are cleaning fees charged ahead of time anyways.

Family ski trip
The home was clean and well stocked. There was plenty of space for all multigenerational family to have together time as well as seperate spaces. The home was further from the ski slope than we expected but we managed the back and forth trips & still had a wonderful vacation. I would recommend this rental and will likely book it again next year if available.

Chalet at Schuss
Very spacious and cosy house. The house was very clean and well equiped. Kitchen is especially great with large bar allowing to accomodate a whole family and hang out. The lower floor is perfect for the kids to play. There is 12 sleeping spots in beds (including 3x2 in the a room on the top). It is advertised as sleeping 14, so we were expecting to see convertible coaches or bunk beds, but didn't find any. We end up making a plan in the living room for the kids. Not a big deal for us but could have been clarifed. Great time, we will come back
