Quite and relaxing
Checking in was the easiest process I have ever had. The house was clean and there were no issues with the contents of the house. The neighborhood was very quite and relaxing. We didn't have to contact management for anything while we were there. I would definitely use them again.

Birthday getaway
Celebrated my birthday with my husband kids and grandkids. Our stay was amazing. Power went out (not the houses fault) but we made do by finding snow and having snowball fights and played games. The views here were beautiful and so peaceful. We will definitely be coming back.

The location is amazing and we really enjoyed Lovely home. the cozy fireplace and decorations. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Love the hot tub even though I think the thermostat might be broken. We had to cool it down for an hour even though it said 104. Also, please check the front door. It doesn’t stay closed. Lovely home.

Bear View Escape
The cabin was really charming with the perfect combination of Rustic Flare and modern convenience. The Bar Peninsula was absolutely wonderful for relaxing and engaging while engaging with the cook in the kitchen. The photos don't do justice! Also, the beds were very comfortable and the water pressure and shower water temp great! Our only suggestion would be for there to be a few more conveniences for guests to use: There was no shampoo or body soap in either bath and there was no plastic wrap, tin foil or zip lock bags. Of course these are small items and most likely should be on the list of the Property Management Team to leave as they are just nice touches. None of these suggestions would deter us from retuning! Thank you to the owners, you have a lovely place!

Nice neighborhood
We are in our 80’s and the stairs were a bit much for us. We enjoyed the front deck and the view. The bed was comfortable for me but not my husband, but he also has a bad back. Be careful of your pets as the coyotes are prevalent. The owners might want to consider changing the carpet for laminate flooring. This is a nice place if you don’t have problems with climbing up stairs, for this reason we would not stay again.

Enjoyed our stay.
Carpet was dirty but the place was otherwise clean. Broken patio chair and one very wobbly recliner chair inside, but furniture was otherwise fine. Beds were good. Bathrooms very clean. No paper towels and no extra trash bags so we had to buy those. Well stocked with dishes and cups, etc. Heater worked well. Jacuzzi was warm upon arrival. Back porch light didn’t work but all the other lights did. Great location. Walking distance to the zoo and some restaurants. Good location to bring pets. Very spacious.

Great place for Boarders/ Moto riders or mountain bikers.
Place has cool decor and a rad layout. The pictures do a very good job of showing you what you'll get and with how close you are to snow summit. It can't be beat for the price. The beds are a bit on the firmer side which is totally a personal preference thing but other than that, its a VRBO that actually feels likes your home vs a vacation home. nNce work guys.

This was a great vacation spot
We loved everything about this place. check in was not made easy though. They don't tell you until the day of the reservation that you have to check in somewhere else. I was planning on my kids checking us in because I had to work, I had to call off work early so I could get there and they closed at 10 PM. this was a stressful experience. Everything besides that was absolutely perfect. The house was beautiful and well stocked, We walked to the zoo. it was peaceful. we will be back. Thank you!

Nice comfortable place
I found this place to be a good place to relax and a good location. the kitchen had everything I need it and the rooms were large enough. Unfortunately, I had a personal emergency snd had to depart in the middle of night but my family stayed. Late at night, i tried turning porch light but bulb was out, as I was exiting going down the steps, i missed a step and fell. Good thing i didnt get injured but may want to check that out. Another thing that might not be to satisfaction of those staying there is that there was carpet in most areas of the home and the couches still has dog hair all over that would be hard to clean out completely but might just need to replace those items in home. If you have allergies this could be a nono. For us we didnt mind and did not affect us one but. It was a nice place overall.

Communication & follow through; terrible.
Called multiple times, starting the day we arrived, to have the hot tub & oven fixed. Was told 3 times on 3 seperate days to expect a call from their maintenance guy, and never received one. Had to go into the main office to get any results & still nobody came to the house until the last day we were there. Was also promised a toaster oven so we could cook, but that was also never delivered. It was extremely aggravating and made the entire trip less enjoyable.
