Lonnie and Steve, Thank you!!! We had a great time. This was our first time to stay in Silverthorne. This condo is great for families. We tried some of the eating places you listed as well, and all were good. Thanks again and you will definitely see us again! P.S. Happy St. Patty's Day!

Lonnie and Steve, Moose, Deer and Bears. Oh My! What a great place you guys have. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. The stairs were great! They kept us warmed up for the next day of skiing. Loved the view and all the little creatures around the place watching us. It sure is nice. Had a great time!

We once again spent five wonderful weeks in Steve & Lonni's great condo. The place is just perfect for our needs, comfortable and more cozy than the standard rental condo. The new flat screen TV is a welcome improvement as we were there for the playoffs and Super Bowl - nice to watch in HDTV! The internet is great, the beds are comfortable and the covered parking really saves time on those snowy mornings - and we had plenty of those in January and February. We're already looking forward to next year.

Lonnie and Steve, Thank you for offering your lovely condo to us! We really loved the decor, especially the 71 bears that we spotted around the place! We too had many memorable nights by the fire! In all seriousness, thank you very much for letting us rent from you!

Steve and Lonni--Thank you for giving your Colorado home to our family. The condo is awesome with plenty of space for all six of us. The view from the balcony is breath-taking. Kitchen was well stocked and I love the decor with all the bears splashed with moose. Jeff fished every day and finally, on the last day, he caught a 21", 4.25 lb cutthroat trout, and we will hear this fish story forever. We all had a wonderful time!! Thank you so much !!!

My wife and I have been renting units in the Wildernest complex for almost 30 years and for the past several years we have been calling this Buffalo Ridge condo "home" for our annual ski vacation. The beds are comfortable, the DVD collection is a bonus, the internet service is great and covered parking is so nice. We think the combination of location, views, club houses (there are three after all) and parking make this condo one of the best bargains in Summit County. Great owners - Steve and Lonni make every effort to make your visit a perfect vacation.

We stayed here for 8 nights and had the most memorable time. The condo has an AMAZING view!! And is very well stocked and laid out perfectly, to enjoy an evening by the crackling fireplace, a movie, or the view from the deck. It is close to shopping, the bus route, and conveniently located so that you can easily drive to a ski resort in any direction. The pools, hot tubs, and sauna are the best of any we have experienced in Summit County. You won't regret staying here and we can't wait to return!!!

Oh My Gosh! What a great time! Steve and Lonni, thanks for making this a home away from home (except at our home, you don't wake up to these fantastic views!) The beds were warm and comfy after the horse-back riding, mountain climbing, white-water rafting. The sunsets and sunrises were awesome to watch. Definitely improved the soul. Thank you so much for letting us stay here and making memories!! P.S. 107 bears in condo

The condo was awesome--it provided exactly what we needed for 9 people. It was clean and well stocked and a great location for multiple slopes...Vail was the favorite! Snowmobiling was well worth the money and drive! We enjoyed a nice fire every night, followed by family games. Thank you for sharing your beautiful mountain condo with a spectacular view.

Thanks to Lonni and Steve for a great condo for our ski vacation. This was our second occassion to stay in this unit and the fact that we were here for 32 days this year should be recommendation enough for anyone?? The unit is very nicely furnished and comfortable for relaxing, preparing meals and just enjoying the ski country. We'll be back next year too.

Lonni and Steve, Thanks for sharing your other "home" with us. It's the best arranged one we've ever stayed in anywhere and your price made it affordable for us. All the "extras" made it special too. Thanks for being such gracious hosts and making sure we had everything we needed for the perfect getaway. We hope to stay here again on our next trip to Colorado

We had a great time. Your condo is the nicest one we've ever stayed in. The clubhouse was terrific. The pool was actually warm. Our skiing at Copper Mt. was great! All of us were wiped out. Sure was great to enjoy a glass of wine by the fire. You even had fire starter. We've never had that provided before.

We loved it--thanks. So clean! We had everything we needed. An elevator was devotely wished for in the beginning, but we toughened up the next few days. On our mt. hike (Buffalo Cabin Trail) we came face to face with a cougar!!! It was one mile past the cabin remains--on a large boulder.

Awesome, restful 3 days in paradise. Great home, great skiing, great weather, but certainly NOT restful. But who comes to such a place to rest anyway. Your home was base camp for 2 adults and 5 teenagers. Great set-up with beds for all! With 3 days down and one to go, Vail is ranked #1, followed by Keystone (close 2nd) with A-Basin and Breckenridge fighting for the 3rd spot. (We haven't skied Breck yet.) The hot tub and pool were perfect for freshening up these forty-something legs and bodies. It was a pleasure to find a kitchen containing commonly used items left behind by others. Much better than throwing out non-perishables.

Dear Lonni and Steve, Loved your"home away from home!" Everytime we wished for an item that we should have brought, you had provided it! And the view, oh--just Colorado at it's best. The children loved the clubhouse (thanks for the updates on the code.) We enjoyed 3 days of great skiing. We hope to return one day. Thanks so much for all the extra thoughtful things.
