Great Family Get Away

What a great place to get away with family and friends. Plenty of space to spread out with larger groups and very cozy and comfortable. Bunk beds for the kids and foosball table too! The close proximity to the resort and ski lifts is also great--no need to bother with parking. Our family group of 16 thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Recommended for:Adventure seekers, families with young children, families with teenagers.

This is an amazing property! My family of 5 loved it so much we stayed on 2 separate occasions.My wife says this is the nicest home she has ever seen, anywhere. This is a custom home,looks brand new, and is outfitted with the finest finishes available. There are so many bedrooms you could easily get lost. The kitchen and family rooms are fabulous. The views are unbelievable. Two families could easily stay here with room to spare. We stayed during an enormous 75 mph blizzard, and were warm and toasty - not a breath of wind penetrated. There is a separate lux room to store ski gear (heated floor, natch) in the garage, and you can ski to the lifts from the house. And oh yes, we are returning for this season as well. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

We took a family Spring trip to Kirkwood on a whim. Found this beautiful home was available. Invited a couple families to join and had an absolute blast! Great open space for family and friends to gather. Kitchen and dining area was perfect to accommodate large crowd for family style meals. Kids loved lounging by the fire. All in all a great vacation! Highly recommend!

Snow and skiing was great. I love this place. Can’t think of any issues. It seemed like we had plenty of plates and glasses for the dinners. The TV is great.

Thank you so much for the use of your beautiful house. It was a great place to welcome in the new year. We appreciated lots of little touches, such as bathrooms prestocked with soap and shampoo-- above and beyond the call of duty, but very nice to have.
