This is a beautiful large home on a gorgeous lot. We have stayed there twice on ski vacations with another family. It accommodates all eight of us with more than enough space. Having two family rooms is a huge luxury with kids. Can't say enough good things about this property. We plan to make this home our annual place for our ski retreat!

Beautiful Home with all the Ammenities

What a wonderful home! This was ideally located and was perfect for cooking in, enjoying the beautiful view from the wall of windows and the hot tub--such a perfect touch for a mountain house. We had everything we needed and more at the house so we could just come up for the weekend and not worry about a thing. I highly recommend this space and thank you to Stephanie and David who were attentive and easy to work with!

6 adults recently spent a long weekend in October in this lovely house. My daughters live in SF and are used to spending weekends in some very nice places and they felt very at home in this house. The owners really look out for your interest and have a very comfortable home. Each couple had their own bathroom. My husband and I slept in the bunkroom in the basement and found that comfortable. It is also a very lovely area. Everything was perfect and the owners even made sure there was coffee available. We would rent again if ever back in Winterpark area. It was a good location for activities at Devil's Thumb Ranch (we had a family wedding there).

peaceful mountain getaway

All I can do is echo the raves of the other guests. The "cabin" is well stocked, well appointed, well located and just a joy to experience. Having morning coffee on the deck is superb as is enjoying the hot tub under the stars. The kitchen has everything needed for a multi day visit. The beds and 3 baths were all stocked with soaps, towels, hairdryers.... really, I don't think they have missed anything. We did have a small snag with the internet access but the owners made phone calls and follow ups to help us successfully work through that. When we return to the Fraser Valley, this will be our first choice for lodging. Thanks for letting us use your house!!

This home was well maintained, clean and inviting. The owners keep the home stocked with "Nice to have items" so a guest does not need to bring zip-lock bags, soap, refrigerated burger toppings, cleaning solutions, vacuum cleaner, etc. Meticulous care is given to each item and directions (wear necessary) for its use are clear and understandable. The technology is nice and a secure internet source is provided. Our son has Autism and for the 1st time in eight years of traveling, he adjusted to this home within one day. Usually it takes atleast three. He sensed our comfort and absence of stress as the whole family settled in. No bugs, no dead bugs, no mice and no complaints. The well water is refreshing! The hot tub is easy to use and a welcome site after a long hike. All of the beds have an additional thick, cushion of padding that makes sleeping high in the mountains a dream. The surroundings are beautiful, the neighborhood, with homes on 2 acre, wooded lots, is quiet. The traffic is nearly non-existent so dust was not a concern. The cute, little critters surrounding this home are busy. Keep the doors closed at all times or furry visitors will invade - they are fast! The considerations given by the owners for the decor of this home are appropriate and tasteful. We were welcome to use the games, satellite system and other technology that was available in the home as well. The owners are wonderful. My family did not need to contact them for anything that was not working. Our entire contact during our stay involved a couple of text messages revolving around our arrival and our departure. All of the towns and attractions are within a 15 minute summer drive from this location. We will definitely stay at this home next year as well. We hope to become regular customers year after year.

Great private home nestled in the trees. Very comfortable and space for the whole family. The game room on the lower level was a wonderful treat for the kids. The owners are a treat to work with and made us feel right at home. Definitely will come back.

We booked this cabin with high expectations and were not disappointed. In addition to being sublimely well decorated, it is exceptionally well equipped. What a pleasure it was to arrive back at this most comfortable abode from our less crowded excursions into the western side of RMNP. We were truly sorry to leave when that time came!

A big thank you to David and Stephanie for the use of their beautiful "cabin". We were a group of 7 mom's that found your Tabernash home a wonderful place to escape to. The home was well stocked from the kitchen to the bedrooms. It is a comfortable home with lovely views - the hot tub was especially nice to visit. David and Stephanie were wonderful hosts. We will be back!!!!!

Owner response:Vicki and friends, Thank you for choosing our home. We are glad you had a nice time and we look forward to having you visit our home again. Stephanie

What a wonderful place to stay while in Winter Park. OUr hosts had everything you could possibly want there to share with guests. I was amazed! Our family of five had a wonderful stay while there. We enjoyed sitting by the fire with lots of firewood right outside the door. The men in our family thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and the fire pit. What a gorgeous place to visit with all the snow as you looked out the many windows. It felt as if we were at home with so many things stocked there to use as we wished. I enjoyed communicating Stephanie, the owner. I would always go back there when visiting Winter Park. Patsy, Hendersonville, TN

In the woods, beautifully maintained, peaceful, neat and tidy- We felt like we were staying at a friend's house who thought of all the extra touches to make our stay so relaxing. We brought our 2 grandchildren along- perfect area downstairs for kids to play while adults enjoy the main level- the hot tub was an added benefit, also very clean and working perfectly. - we stayed 3 weeks;- could have stayed longer.... .

The owners of this cabin were wonderful! They truly made us feel welcome and went out of their way to help us enjoy our time there. The home is beautiful and very well equipped. . . it felt like home. Our family ranged from age 1 to 60 and was comfortable and fun for all. The location was awesome and close to so many activities. (hiking, horseback riding, white water rafting, hot springs and lakes)

If you want to enjoy quiet and charm in the mountains, this is the perfect place to get away to. The home is well kept and the owners were more than accomodating to me and my family. Plenty of room, well maintained, and we all especially enjoyed the hot tub and sledding! we will definitely revisit!!!

Home Away From Home

Date of Stay: 01/08/10 Review Submitted: 01/11/10

This is a beautiful home in a beautiful locale. The property managers were a pleasure doing business with and they were extremely accommodating. This house was great for a group of adventure seekers who do not mind sleeping in tiny bunk beds and would be a gem for a couple of vacationing families with young children. This house is about 10 minutes from Winter Park/Mary Jane and only a short distance from Devil's Thumb nordic skiing. The owners provided sleds and snoweshoes as well as spare ski gear. This all makes it a very comfortable and convenient home for snow sport enthusiasts.

My family and I of 9 were fortunate to stay at this home over the week of Christmas and space was never an issue. The rooms downstairs for the kids was perfect and never a dull moment of activity in the house. All you could ever need is provided by the owners. Beautifully furnished and comfortable for all. This home is also very close to Solvista Ski Basin which is perfect for family oriented fun. I highly recommend this home to all.

Our family of five enjoyed our stay in this wonderful home. Pictures are very accurate. We had plenty of room. The kids enjoyed being downstairs playing games, hockey, pool etc. The views were awesome. If you plan on skiing at Winter Park, this is the place to stay. We took a day and went to Breckenridge as well. (less than an hour away). Many activities in the area (Hot springs (even though the home has a hot tub), Rocky Mountain National Park, Devil's Thumb Ranch and many many more! The owner's are very customer oriented and easy to contact. I would highly recommend staying here.

Me and my family had an amazing time at this perfect vacation home. The home itself was very beautiful, with great decorations and amazing views. The kids really loved the pool table and the video games and me and my wife loved sitting out on the deck and we all loved the outdoor jacuzzi. If you are looking for a great place to get away and have some fun with your family, then I highly recommend comming here.

Our family and another enjoyed a wonderful stay at this beautiful home during the Memorial Day Weekend 2009. We absolutely loved it. We had 5 little boys (ages 3-7) that totally enjoyed the stay - lots of things to do outdoors from looking for bugs, climbing on rocks, swinging on the tree swing, mountain biking, hiking and hanging out in the hottub. The bunkbed room was quite the hit with the boys as was the Gamecube! The house was very organized (instructions for everything) and everything as stated in the rental announcement. The owners contacted me immediately before and after our stay to ensure that we enjoyed our visit and that we had no issues. We all would stay there again - either as a two family mini break from the Denver area or separately. We LOVED it.

A great place to enjoy all that Colorado has to offer. Skiing and snowmobiling were just minutes away. We also visited The Rocky Mtn National Park which was close by. We loved the amenities and the privacy of the house. The kids were able to spend their time down stairs in the family room while my wife and I had the upstairs to ourselves. A great place!
