Great getaway for a ski trip to Elk Mountain
Great place, really pretty. Host is very responsive to questions. Plenty of space for everything including ski gear that needs to be inside over night. Would come back.

Amazing, secluded location, unique home
The setting is amazing--secluded, looking out over a beautiful valley, with an extensive property. We would have liked one more day to enjoy it all. The set up of the home is unique, but once you get used to the configuration, and bathrooms on the small size, this is a great place to stay. We would go back.

Great place, remote yet had everything needed for a getaway with kids
Thank you, Lisa, for being an excellent host and for your clear communication. I appreciated your taste in furnishings, home accents, and the cleanliness of your space. Thanks for stocking the fridge with spices and eggs. We enjoyed all the props in the backyard and the BBQ area, making lots of pictures and memories.

Hill Top Hall
Better than the pictures here! They finished up the basement into a huge kitchen and living area. Plenty of space with a beautiful view of the mountains and sunset. We were two families with young kids and we all enjoyed our short stay. The house was very clean and had everything you need. Try it out!
