The house was great in every way, exactly as advertised. Location immediately adjacent to the lift, interior clean and well organized, hot tub at 104 degrees and clean! The owner was very helpful in answering questions and getting things set up. Plenty of dishes, towels, soaps, etc. Even lots of good books lying around. The only thing we needed was a little more snow!

Great Ski Vacation

We were very delighted when we arrived at the house. It was great to see people skiing and sledding by, very good energy. We spent most of the week in the house, or just hanging out at SolVista – we also visited Grand lake (very cool mountain town). House is good size, our family of 10 fit just fine. I would definitely recommend this house and ski area – we hope to make it back next year.

Exquisite Property With All The Amenities!

My wife and I recently stayed at this property with several friends and family. It's right on SolVista Ski Mountain, which made it super convenient for our family to ski as much or as little as we wanted. The property itself is stunning, spacious, and everything is top shelf. The large, main gathering place features a gourmet kitchen, which made light work out of cooking huge meals for many hungry people. We slept 12 in total comfort, and had plenty of room for daytime festivities in the house. In the evenings, we enjoyed the grand fireplace and relaxed in the hot tub. Granby is a super quick trip down the hill for groceries, and the skiing at SolVista is great fun for the whole family. We will be back and hope to make this wonderful house a permanent part of our future family trips.

Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. Everything was awesome. From the beauty of the house, to the ski in-ski out, the storage closet outside, the awesome kitchen, everything was perfect and exactly as it was worded on the website. I know that if we get the chance, all of my family wants to go back to Sol Vista and stay in your house again.

Excellent location, Great for families

Everything about this experience was excellent from engaging the owner via the internet to closing the door on our exit. The house was one of the best stocked houses I have rented. It had everything you could need and more. It was well decorated and had great internet and ipod stereo connections. The Sol Vista ski resort was an excellent place for my boys, 6 years and 8 years to learn how to ski. It was also great to be able to walk out the door and sled on the ski slope that was closed due to the early season. I hope we get the chance to go back. It was a very relaxing place to spend time with my sister's family (including two boys) and my father (who stayed around the house most of the time). I also loved that the TV and recreation room was downstairs so for those of us who like the quiet, we could avoid the football blaring (yep my dad) and enjoy the fire peacefully.

Thank you so much to you and your family for sharing your mountain home with us. We had a great time! Your home was everything and more than we expected. When we left, we could not find our 3 year old son. I searched the whole house while everyone waited in the car. I found him in that back closet in the bunk bed room off the kitchen. He was sitting on a big bean bag pillow crying...."no go home, stay, me go chairlift, no go home" He was really sad to leave. All our kids wanted to stay! I'm so glad we were able to be at such a cool place for our very first family ski trip. After our 16 hour drive yesterday, I was cleaning out the back seat of our car and found pages of coloring pictures that my kids made. The pictures were of your house with mountains and chairlifts. We are actually going to frame them for our house in Minnesota. Your home will always be a special memory for our family. Thank you! We hope we can come back again sometime. Kim from Minnesota

Perfect ski-in ski-out home with beautiful views

Guest: Oklahoma Group (Tulsa, OK)
Date of Stay: 03/17/10 Review Submitted: 03/30/10

We just got back from a spring break trip at SolVista Basin. The house was the perfect place to stay with a big group. We loved the house. It had beautiful views, a very relaxing hot tub, and it was nice and big and you can ski from the house down to the lift. We couldn't have asked for a better home or location. Annie, the leasing agent was a great help. We would definitly stay here again!

Very comfortable new house for families in nice neighborhood. Look out the window to the chairlift that passes right by. Clean, open, airy and bright. Well provisioned kitchen. Comfortable bedding. The main level great room is two levels with a floor to ceiling fireplace. A huge kitchen table seats many. The basement media/game room is a nice retreat for kids. The owners have stocked the house for all activities. Ski in ski out on a quiet chairlift just a short ski trail from the lodge. Sol Vista is a nicer small resort catering to families. We enjoyed skiing (great ski school), eating at the lodge restaurant and tubing on the nearby tubing hill. We recommend it for families looking to get away from the crowds and relax.
