We all (5) really liked this cabin. Good beds with nice separation, comfortable common areas. Heating is a bit quirky but adequate--gas fireplace in the living room and gas wall heaters in 2 of 3 bedrooms. We were there during a snowstorm--roads required 4WD or chains but were plowed, and the driveway is blessedly short and flat. Lots of games, well-stocked kitchen. Some minor complaints: advance info about the property was generic from mgmt company; no instructions about how to use the various appliances except fireplace instructions hidden in a notebook; master bathroom had no soap, and shower temp was blocked from going hotter than tepid. None of these were deal breakers and would return. It's super convenient to Sugar Bowl!

Quick getaway
This property is perfect with easy walk to lake and all of the amenities of home. It was just the two of us and as soon as we walked in we said, “we can’t wait to bring the kids back here!”

Great cabin & location
Overall a great stay, cabin was just the right size. Loved the location. Fireplace was nice and cozy. Kitchen was really well stocked. Dishwasher a plus. Bathrooms were really nice, great to have 2 full. Common space was cozy and comfortable. A couple of minor improvements could be made including: check in and out times, check in time is really late and check out time early so you don't get a day to use the cabin on either of those days, or even a half day. The cabin was freezing when we arrived and took quite some time to warm up. There was no clear recycling option. Otherwise the stay was great!
