A HUGE House for our team competing at the USASA National Championships at Copper

We needed a large house to fit all of the athletes and families attending Nationals at Copper for two weeks, and this house was perfect for our group. Each family had their own bedroom with bathroom which worked out great. The living areas upstairs and downstairs spread out the group which you never really knew where everyone was because of how big the house was. Plenty of parking for all of our cars. Kitchen was big enough for our group, and we definitely liked the pantry area and cooking equipment. Because we were going to Copper for the competitions, the shuttle bus stop was super close which we used everyday. Plus, it only took us less than 15 minutes to get to Copper from Frisco. Couldn't drive there and park any quicker. With the house located right on Main Street, everything was walking distance away. So convenient! Mark the owner was very accommodating and has answered all of our questions & concerns. We'll certainly be back to stay at the Frisco River House on our next trip to Summit County. Thank you for an amazing vacation.

Wonder Family Reunion/Vacation

My sister and I had all our children and grandchildren together for a week long family reunion/vacation: fourteen adults, 2 teenagers and four little girls. We had a wonderful time. The house was just what we needed: spacious and accommodating, each large bedroom has its own bath, and not so fancy that we were afraid of the kids having a good time. We cooked dinner every night, and we were able to have the entire family sit down together, a real plus. The location is great: immediate access to downtown Frisco, parks and hiking; and a short drive to many other activities. We did run into some appliance issues, but the owner responded immediately. We highly recommend this property for a large family get together.

Owner response: Thanks for staying at our place!

This place was absolutely amazing!! It had everything you needed and much much more. This was the perfect place for us to go to Copper Mountain. There is a free community bus that only takes 15-20 mins and drops you right off at the Center Village at Copper. Your bus stop is the first stop when you return to the house too! Thank you for this wonderful place!!! I hope to return to it again:)

Worked Perfectly for a Big Family

The Frisco River House was INCREDIBLE! It's in a fantastic location, wonderfuly convenient to Copper Mountain - you don't need your car once you're there because the bus system is terrific and free. It's also walking distance to all the great shops, restaurants and bars on main street. The house accomodated our giant, particular family PERFECTLY, children and all. Everyone comented on how great the accomodations were and decided we are coming back next year! Mark McMannis was very hospitable, helpful and answered all our questions promptly. The only drawback was the size of the kitchen, which is not designed for more than a couple people to be in there at the same time. I would recommend having someone come in and cook for the group in order to keep the kitchen clear. On the other hand, the dining room was large enough for our group of 22 to sit down and have dinner together, which was most important. Overall we loved it!

Owner response: Hi Rachel, thank you for the wonderful comments - we look forward to your return. Our kitchen is 210 square feet in size, not a small kitchen. I am sorry you found it cramped. We have had many groups of 27 people and have not had complaints. I have been one of eight people working together in the kitchen when my family stayed there. Regards, Mark

Mark, What a beutiful home in a perfect location. Myself along with my family of 14 stayed and had plenty of room and privacy.

We came for a family reunion over Christmas. There were 16 of us ranging from 6 years old up to 70's from 4 different states. The accomodations were wonderful and everyone carved out their own space-kids downstairs and college kids upstairs. We never felt cramped, there was plenty of room for meals, and we had more than enough supplies to last the week. The kitchen was very well equipped and had everything we needed for cooking. The ski boot room was unexpected and well used. We were so busy outside with skiing, snowmobiling, sledding, tubing and enjoyed coming back to such a beautiful place. The hot tub was wonderful and the kids spent hours outside playing in the snow. The shuttle was very convienent and many of used that exclusively. We found the Frisco restaurants much less crowded and very good. Mark was very easy to work with and accomodating to us and easy to contact with questions. It really does look just like the pictures and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this home to anyone!

Hey Mark, This is a little late but just wanted to say thank you for accommodating us the weekend that we rented your house. Everyone had a great time in Frisco and the surrounding area. We all loved the house too and the location was perfect. Only wish we would have had an extra day or two to spend there. You might see us back again in 2 or 3 years. Thanks again, Jon

We just recently celebrated our wedding in Silverthorne, CO. We, along with the wedding party and some guests stayed in the River House. Everyone loved it. They felt like they were staying in a B&B, all the rooms having their own bathroom. The house is just at the end of Main Street, within walking distance to many shops and restaurants. The River House was perfect for us and we look forward to coming back one day. Thank you!

We had a family reunion with 18 plus 3 babies. Had plenty of room and activities for all ages. The close proximity of the town made for interesting walks. The main fridge was not working, but the second fridge in the garage worked. The large seating area in the dining room kept the family together for great times. Don't know how my wife found this place, but it was great. We'll be back.

Owner response: Thanks Gary, Sorry about the frig. We bought a new JennAir two years ago, but got a lemon. JennAir just replaced it. See you soon! Mark

The Frisco House was outstanding! My group has been traveling to different ski locations for 16 years. We all agreed this was our best trip ever and a big reason was the accommodations. I have nothing be good things to say about the house and the owner.

The Frisco River House was Awesome!! Everyone was very happy with it. We had a full house with 13 adults and 13 kids (mostly teens), yet there was plenty of room for everyone! The location is perfectly central to all our favorite ski destinations. The rooms are nice and big, and it was great having an area for the adults and an seperate area for the teens. Excellent dining accomodations, too. We were very impressed with how well stocked it was! Enough dishes and silverware to go around without worrying about running out! We sure enjoyed our stay, and the owner was easily accessible and helpful with any questions we had. Best vacation accomodations ever, and we are planning on renting again next year!!

Our stay at your home was perfect. Everyone had their own space and we never felt crowded. The refrigerator would not cool but you had it repaired very timely. The dryer went out on the last day but worked fine during our stay. Hope to plan another visit soon. We ski with large groups yearly and this has been the best accomadations yet!. Thanks for sharing your home with us. Clint

Owner response: Hi Clint Sorry you got hit with 2 appliances. The dryer was replaced after your stay. Mark

Your home was the perfect place for our group of 16. The kitchen, dining area, great room and hot tub were all p;erfect and the place was clean and comfortable. When the hot tub broke, your service people were on the job and fixed it quickly. Your location is perfect for all the ski areas as well.

Family Reunion at the Frisco River House

Review Submitted 02/06/09

The Frisco River House was more than we thought it would be...you just can't get the feel for how spacious this place is until you are in it. We had a family ski reunion there with 22 people and it was super comfortable. The ski storage room with places to dry your boots and gloves was invaluable and much appreciated. There was ample room for everyone to sit and move about. The kitchen was well supplied with all the gadgets and set up nicely for feeding many people with plenty of room for seating. It was easy to find and in a great location. The owner was available for phone calls and answered all our questions and never seemed bothered. We have a child in a wheelchair and there was even a handicapped accessible room with a shower for him to use. A fantastic property that we hope to use again!

Second year in a row and planning on a third. I guess that speaks for itself!! House was great as usual. Working with Mark is a breeze. I only wish ever one I dealt with was as easy to work with. Just an absolute pleasure in all respects.

Owner response: Great to have you back this year again.

Mark we really liked the house and appreciated all of the effort that is made to make it comfortable. We had a great time. It was perfect for families. The kids loved playing in the game room upstairs while the adults spent time downstairs by the fire. We will be back.

The 16 Fricks enjoyed the house (home) very much. My elder grandsons and sons improved their pool table skills dramatically over the week (I never won a game). We enjoyed Frisco and many of the hikes in the area. The hikers ranged from 4 to 74, so you know we hiked varied terrain, but all of us did Sap*** Point.

We got married at Sapphire Point overlooking the lake in Frisco. Had the reception at this amazing house. 30 guests for the reception and 20 slept over. The huge kitchen was great for the cook. The cute small little mountain town of Frisco was perfect for the wedding we wanted. The owner was very helpful with details and easy to contact. Perfect setting for our small wedding. All our guests were very impressed with this house. Thank you Mark!

Owner response: Thank you for your comments, and congratulations to you both.

What a great house!!!! The location is central, Frisco is a great town, the house is so accomodating. We had 18 adults stay for 4 days and never ran out of room. Half the time you were trying to find people because the house is so big and comfortable, that people would tuck themselves away. Working with the owner was an absolutely professional and easy experience. I highly recommend this house to anyone. Unless you want to book it for the same time as us, because we WILL be back.

Owner response: Thank you, Tom. Good to have you stay with us. Mark
