  Where to begin. Upon arriving at Whitetail Lodge we were all overwhelmed with the whole scenery of the house & property. Its beautiful inside and out. the hot tub was well cleaed & a treat to get into after hitting up the slopes. The kitchen is fully stocked with any sort of pan or plate you may need. The house is GIANT!!!! and has plenty of rooms for entertaining...I would STRONGLY RECOMMEND 4WD. We were in a 2000 AWD Explorer and had no problems as long as we went up to the left, our friends that came with us drove an AWD car....they had to park at the bottom and walk up everytime...which is not the funnest when youve been snowboarding all day....we saw deer in the yard almost every night along with some owls. Beautiful place, correctly priced. The pictures dont do it justice. I will stay again if i come back to snowshoe! Have fun!

  Our family (6 adults and 4 children) stayed 4 nights at the Whitetail Lodge. It was every bit as nice as advertised. Arranging the rental and payment with the owner went smoothly and without a hitch. While we were there we received a call each day from their on site representative to make sure we had everything we needed. She also offered Nanny service, dog walking, grocery shopping and anything else you may need to make your stay more enjoyable. The owner also called to make sure everything was going well. There was plenty of room for everyone--our four grandchildren chose to sleep together in the loft and the theater room was a great place for the adults to gather in the evenings. We also liked having a large dining table where we could all eat together. A great house for a family gathering. The only caution is the driveway--it is indeed steep. Even with four wheel drive you may need snow tires if snow and ice are present. There is limited parking at the bottom of the drive. Also there was no cell phone reception or internet--we used the house phones and our calling card.

  Owner response: We appreciate your review and we are glad you enjoyed your stay at Whitetail Lodge. We try to make our home as comfortable as possible for our guests. We were happy to hear our representative contacted and informed you of her other services that she provides throughout the resort area. As a point of clarification and to avoid any confusion for anyone reading this review, dog walking services do not apply to our home as we maintain a pet free environment to accommodate people with allergies.

  This house was great. We came to ski and snowboard and the location was only a mile from the Snowshoe entrance yet we were perfectly secluded. We had 5 couples and 2 singles and there was plenty of room for everyone. The views were beautiful, especially the sunsets. The kitchen was well equipped and even though the owner said there would be no sundries, there was actually plenty. There were a few minor reasons I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5. Neither of the gas fireplaces worked. The owners were prompt to try and resolve the issue, it just didn't happen. Kind of a bummer since we were looking forward to the ambiance. Second issue was the hot tub. Being a hot tub owner I know when a hot tub is dirty and this one was. The water smelled bad and the hot tub itself was slimy. Other than those few very minor issues, it was perfect, we had a blast and would definitely return to this house. Only other suggestion would be getting WIFI as no one in the home had cell service.

  Owner response: Thank you for taking the time to post a review. We are glad to hear that you had a great time and would consider us for future trips to the area! We were very sorry to hear about the two issues you encountered while staying at our home and we appreciate your patience. We understand your disappointment when the gas logs failed to operate on the second day of your vacation. Our property manager was also disappointed when the maintenance personnel she dispatched on two different occasions were unable to remedy the situation. We have asked the propane company to check their tank and the two gas line regulators and they should do that this week. We also contacted the company who services the hot tub and registered your concerns. They informed us they thoroughly clean and test the water in every hot tub serviced to ensure it is sanitary and did so the week before you checked in. They also assured us that if they had known of your concerns, they would have responded immediately; still, we are sorry that the hot tub was not satisfactory and we promise to work hard to ensure this is not an issue in the future. Our goal is simple…provide a lasting and positive memory of a mountain getaway; one families and friends will remember forever and recommend to everyone they know! We and the property manager regret that this situation occurred, but were happy to know you had a good time and will consider being our guests again.

  Located on the side of a mountain this place has a nice view of the surroundings. It is close to snowshoe without having to deal with all of the people. The pictures of the house do not do it justice. The interior is spacious three seperate areas to entertain. We really enjoyed our stay here
