condo at christmas

My family stayed in the condo for Christmas week, the condo was exactly as described. With lots of little extra's that you dont normally get with renting condos. Every kitchen gadget imaginable, lots of papertowels and bathroom stuff that (in my experience) is never included. My only issue is most of the firewood didnt fit in the fireplace (too long) but that wasnt a huge deal

My husband and I rented the condo for a week in the mountains to get away from Texas heat. The condo was exactly as described, and the owner was great to work with. I thought it was very comfortable and attractive and clean. The kitchen was equipped with everything I could have possibly needed. I especially appreciated things like tissues, paper towels, dishwasher detergent and much more being provided. That has not been my previous experience in condo and house rentals. The location of the condo is wonderful. It's close to the hiking trails that we wanted to do, and close to the ski lifts, too. We will definately stay in this condo again just as soon as we can get away!

Convenient location and beautiful views

Had a wonderful time this past week. It was nice to find a place so close in and also where we could take our dogs with us. The back area has a nice wooded area where we could walk our dogs. This condo is right in the middle of everything and so convenient for skiers in the winter. We were there the first part of August. We kept the windows and sliding back door open when we were there and it was very comfortable. However, the bedroom got a little warm a night or two. Could have used a ceiling fan in the bedroom. The owner was very cordial and nice to work with. Will keep this in mind if we rent a condo in Angel Fire again.

review for property #23487

Date of Stay: 07/01/11 Review Submitted: 07/19/11

Had an enjoyable stay at Gold Creek. It was just a short walk up to the slopes / chairlift where we could take a break from downhilling, have a snack, then get back to the lifts. The condo was very nice and accomodating for a family of four. The spare bedroom sleeps 3 ~ 4 and has a TV perfect for the kids! The master bedroom has a comfortable bed with window just over the headboard that allows cool mountain air in at night during the warmer months. The price made for an affordable vacation. Will stay here again next year.

A great condo at the center of Northern New Mexico's outdoor playground

Date of Stay: 06/24/11 Review Submitted: 07/20/11

My wife and I and our two sons rented this condo in late June for a trip to Northern New Mexico to get away from the Albuquerque heat. We used it as a base for hiking adventures in the Wheeler Peak Wilderness as well as strolls on nearby trails in the woods and around the village of Angel Fire. The property is very well maintained. The kids particularly enjoyed the large flat screeen televisions in every room. The beds were clean and comfortable, just like home. The condo was the perfect way to wind down after a day of hard hiking up to 13,000 feet. I enjoyed the comfortable furniture...winding down with a nice single malt is my idea of heaven. My wife was pleasantly surprised with the fast internet service. We'll definitely be back to this condo when our adventures bring us back to Northern New Mexico.

Spring Break 2011

Guest: Rosie (Houston)
Date of Stay: 03/13/11 Review Submitted: 03/22/11

Great time on the ski slopes. First time skiers and it was a great experience. The man made snow was new experience also but worked out well. Little parking was uncomfortable and only 1 restroom was a little nuissance but with 4 of us it was fine. The ski from the top of the mountain is awesome. We will go again. Condo is very comfortable and we saved money by cooking in the condo.

Close to the Slopes

Date of Stay: 01/14/11 Review Submitted: 01/19/11

The main advantage of this condo was that it was so close to the ski slopes. We also liked having an abundance of free firewood. The condo was clean and had everything we needed away from home. The owners were easy to work with. Being on the third floor was a bit of a hassle. In order for us to consider this condo again, new mattresses are a must.

This is the second time our group has stayed in this condo. It's on the top floor and off on it's own on the far side of the building with a great patio. You can't beat it for the price. The owner has updated the TV's with some nice LCD's which was a great surprise. The two times we've been there have been in the summer for the mountain biking, but we won't hesitate to book again this winter for our snowboard trip.

Stayed there for 4 nights,the property was clean,the kitchen did have everything you would need. However the windows have plastic on them and written notes saying do not remove plastic. Kitchen window no screen. Bedroom window has a note that says do not open. The condo was hot and stuffy we did not sleep well. Had no wireless the whole time and the roof leaked. I did reach the owner who said it was ok to open the bedroom window,did not help much since the bed is in front of the window. The building was changing managers,the old manager took the wireless but this should have been planned for in advance. Bathroom towels were poor too. With a little work it could be nice but needs some updating. I felt with no wireless,leaking roof we should have received a refund or something. People from our group rented other houses none had these problems. The condo is on the 3rd floor,no laundry in the building.

Owner response:We regret that our guest had some issues with her stay at our condo. As for the internet issues, the timing of her stay was between a changeover in the building management, and the service was out for a few days that coincided with her stay. Internet access has now been restored. The roof drip during rainstorms is being addressed now… the entire roof has been replaced. As far as the ventilation, the guest was uncomfortable leaving windows without screens open, something we routinely do since there are no bugs. We also recommend leaving the sliding door to the back balcony open during summer and fall because it is quite pleasant. Our track record with previous guests staying at our condo has been outstanding and we get many referrals and repeat guests. We think you’ll continue to find our condo a great value and a great place to vacation with your family.

Just wanted you to know how much we enjoyed the condo. Lots of space, short walk to the lifts, nice fireplace and our dog loved playing in the snow on the hillside behind the building. We definitely enjoyed our first trip to Angel Fire.(comment submitted by guest to me via email)

Hi. I'm Taylor H. I stayed in your condo over Spring Break with the Amy P party. I first wanted to thank you for such a lovely place to stay. We had a wonderful time and we will certainly be looking to stay at your place when we visit New Mexico over Christmas break. Again, thanks for everything. We enjoyed our time there and I absolutely cannot wait to get back to Angel Fire!

We had an awesome time in Angel Fire. The condo is very comfortable. The beds were perfect. The kids loved the bunk beds. We cooked a lot and the kitchen had all the utensils we needed (and then some). The location was perfect, right across the street from the lifts. Perfect summer vacation away from the Texas heat.

Just wanted to let you all know how much we enjoyed your condo. It was very nice and comfortable and beautiful views. You have missed nothing in stocking the kitchen and and the attention to detail throughout the condo. We do appreciate the hospitality we felt staying at your place. Thanks.
