Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2007
We live in Fremont Nebraska. West of Omaha. With two kids, we love to get away from all of the stuff going on around us. It takes us a little over 9 hours to drive to our condo. We drive or fly out at least 3 time per year.
Why the Owner Chose Sol Vista
We started coming to Solvista about 12 years ago. Our kids were just starting to ski. The cost to ski is very reasonable and lift lines are short. The people that work at the ski area are very friendly. We looked at properties at other resorts and kept coming back here. The last time we came we saw there was a new grocery store by the entrance. We knew something special was going on here and we were right. This is the place to be. Still in a growth phase. We always come here and think it's home!
The Unique Benefits of this Condominium
By staying here you have the benefit of lots of skiing without crowds. You can ski right to our parking lot at the end of the day or for breaks. Go inside, return and then walk right over to the lift and start skiing again. We have an indoor pool and amenities building just below our unit. You can walk there in 5 minutes or drive. Best thing is it's quiet at night.
