Place was clean and updated. You can tell the place is kept in great shape by the owners. Great location with centrally located hot tub/pool/gym that was the best part. Hot tub was just what was needed after each day of skiing. Catherine made the process smooth, fast and easy. Pricing was direct and upfront, They had my damage deposit back within the week. Its well worth the cost. Enjoy.

Best VRBO Property We've Rented!

Stayed At This Propety - 01/08/12 - 01/12/12 The owners of this property are a model of how to operate! Everything about the property was exactly as promised and the owners were very helpful with any questions we had. The unit is literally a 3 minute walk from the front door of the clubhouse & bus stop. The town home was nicely furnished and also stocks several items that are very helpful for a young family. We ended up with 5 adults and two children (4 & 13mths) and felt like we had plenty of space. The bathrooms are very nice and the water pressure in the showers was outstanding! Downstairs bedrooms are very quiet and the rest of the floor plan worked well for our group. The stairs were a temptation for our 13 month old but nothing that a strategically placed bookshelf couldn't negate. The unit was also extremely clean and it's obvious that the owners keep it updated on a regular basis. All of the information relating to the rental itself and the process of renting was extremely organized and professional. A check returning the security deposit was in the mail promptly. The ski locker was great for us as we were in the Winter Park area to ski. However, this location is perfect for a summer vacation as well with Rocky Mountain National Park right up the road. Also, if you're skiing you can rent nice equipment from Ski Broker in the clubhouse across the street. It doesn't get much more easier unless you're staying on the mountain. I can't say enough about the owners of this property. This unit will definitely be at the top of our list for any future vacation in the Fraser valley.

From our in-home guest book: Thank you! We had a wonderful stay in your condo. All the kids and their cousins enjoyed the games and the family hot tub. Sophie (who just turned 4 while we were here) says "I loved the bunk beds."

Great Getaway Mountain Home

Great weekend getaway home for the winter park area, close to ski resort, even with Shuttle Bus stopping right outside of the home. The place is clean, comfortable with all the updated amenities, and even with a real fireplace. We had a great time skiing and would highly recommend this to all our friends. Thank you so much.

We had a wonderful time!! Your condo is so nice and this is a beautiful time of the year here! The lads especially liked it – they went horse-back riding 5 times at Snow Mountain Ranch. We were also lucky enough to be here for the season’s first snowfall in the mountains and it was absolutely beautiful. We’ll see you again next year!!

Great Labor Day Getaway

The condo was a great place to relax after our busy days at heritage camp up at Snow Mountain Ranch. While three of us were at heritage camp, two others enjoyed the pool, racquetball, and tennis. We also enjoyed all the summer fun at Winter Park. Having two TVs was great. The adults were able to watch a movie that was not rated G. The unit was clean and spacious enough for two families. We plan on staying again next year.

Comment from in-house Guest book: Dear Catherine, Eric and family, First of all thank you very much for working with us on the dates! We are so happy we were able to be here. Once again, your hospitality and your attention to detail in your condo made our stay great! The new TV and DVR, the bathroom upstairs; all very nice! Thanks for making your home available to us. It is our “home away from home” in Colorado. Peace to all of you.

Wonderful time! Great location, quiet complex, lovely pool and hot tub. Everything you need for a home away from home, even with 3 boys (6, 4, 2). Can’t wait to come back! Thank you so much! The Walker Family. PS. Only thing we missed was a tea pot. Owner: The teapot is a great idea and I am looking to get one in in time for the holidays. Thank you!

Comment from our in-house guestbook: Thank you for a wonderful stay at your nice condo. After 20 hrs of driving, we were glad to be here. Our kids were eager to "pick beds". We enjoyed some good grilling and great mountain breakfasts while here. Although the weather was less than perfect for our version of June - we were prepared. It didn't slow us down too much as we still were able to take the Georgetown loop train - beautiful, take the chairlift to the top of Winter Park ski resort, and view lots of wildlife in RMNP. We were thrilled to see moose and elk up close hiking - our vacation with 3 kids was beautiful and memorable. We enjoyed the club house, the mountain view pool and warm hot tub. We saw a fox while walking back to the condo from the club house. We loved our stay here - everything we needed. It was quite a treat for our family - and a first taste of the mountains for our children.

Entry in our in-unit guest book: This was a father and sons week for us at Winter Park. We had a super time skiing Winter Park for 3 days, plus a perfect day over at Loveland and one "day off" driving up to Grand Lake and through Rocky Mountain National Park. Big thanks to Catherine and Eric for the excellent accomodations and all the nice touches to make the condo comfortable, and our lodging experience simple and enjoyable. For us, we had everything we needed in the condo and plenty of fun on the slopes and playing racquet ball every evening. Would love to come back for another ski trip or summer trip! Thank you - Dan S. - Raleigh, NC

Comment from In-house guest book and email: We had a great time! Your place worked out really well for us - having the three levels allowed us to spread out and not feel too on top of each other. We also appreciated the wireless internet. Thanks for sharing it with us! Sol Vista could not have been more perfect for our seven beginners of all ages. Since we went during the week, they got lots of individual attention there and the lessons were a great deal compared to Winter Park. I would definitely recommend it when you have beginners stay at your place. My five-year-old was linking parallel turns after the second day. :) Thanks again! Kathy

Guest comment from in-unit guest book:While our stay was more eventful than probably most others, my family truly enjoyed staying in your place for our ski vacation in Winter Park. We had plenty of room, my teenagers were occupied with videos, games, the TV and movies. So good! And so many “comforts” like being at home. We will stay at the Belaski’s home as our 2nd home whenever we come again to visit in Winter Park/Fraser.Thank you Catherine and Eric!The Hazel/Walton family (Colorado)

Guest comment from our in-unit guest book:Your condo was perfect for our family ski vacation. It was our first time to ski Winter Park and we had a great time. The convenience of the shuttle was a must on our list and we used it every time to the hill. The rec center was a nice addition and we used that as well.Loved the attention to detail as others have mentioned – soap, shampoo, lotions in the bathrooms – so many cooking utensils, etc.Catherine, you were wonderful to work with in setting up our stay. Thanks so much – hope to return again sometime. Ron and Eileen Weibelhaus (Austin, MN)

Our family had a wonderful stay in your condominium. The condominium was clean, well organized, spacious, and homely. There are only a couple of items I would like to suggest; First, have the curtain on the loft fixed ( it was a bit difficult to sleep with a beautiful full moon outside) : ) and lastly, see if you can get a coffee grinder for your guests. It is really a great thing to have around for those guests who are coffee lovers. Besides those two items, everything else was perfect. Thank you once again. Sincerely Adriana

Owner response:We have added a coffee grinder and fixed the curtain rod in the room so it can close easily. Thank you for the feedback.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The townhouse was PERFECT for our family, and has everything. Just when you remember you forgot something, you find it in the townhouse! The owners are friendly, very responsive and easy to work with. The location is great as well - close proximity to restaurants, grocery stores, wine stores, ski rental places, etc. We drove 10 minutes each morning to park at the mountain and some members of our party easily rode the free shuttle back and forth. We've stayed at a lot of VRBO properties all over Colorado and this is by far one of our favorites. We hope to stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay in your townhouse. It was so perfect for us. The diehard skiers caught first chair every morning. I went snowshoeing one day and explored Sol Vista the next. Sol Vista is a great place for beginning skiers - less expensive, less crowded and nearly all green/blue groomers. I'd recommend it to your guests that are up for the first time.

Our stay at Catherine and Eric's townhouse was quiet and comfortable without sacrificing too many conveniences of home. They were fair and accomodating. This trip could easily become a family tradition.
