My husband and I enjoyed a long weekend with my mother, sister and brother from Chicago to celebrate my graduation. We had a fantastic time and loved everything about the home, the club house and the town of Frisco. Dorelle was a great host. I would recommend this property to anyone.

Colorado visitors

Wonderful place for three couples to spend time together and still have time apart. The location is excellent for accessing everything Frisco and the mountains have to offer. We would love to return.

Owner response:Thanks for taking the time to write a review. I agree that the floor plan of my home (each bedroom and bathroom on a separate floor) lends itself to multiple couples. Frisco is a great town!

I've rented several condos in Summit County and this one was one of the best places we've stayed. The owner was very hospitable and easy to work with. I had no issues with payments, checking in, or out. The place was probably the most well stocked place we've stayed. The kitchen had a full supply of plates, bowls, serving trays, cooking utensils, and more. A plus was having two coffee makers (they know how much coffee a group of skiers need in the morning). There were more than enough sheets and towels for everyone there without having to do laundry every day. Also, being a pet friendly condo, our two dogs didn't have any issues with the condo. It was nice to have them be able to use the fenced in area out back, as well as the front yard. The owner obviously has pets and did her best to make sure her condo was accommodating to pets. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to enjoy Summit County. We would definitely stay here if it is available on our next visit!

Owner response:Terrence, Thanks for your positive comments. I always appreciate knowing when someone has enjoyed my home as much as I do. Thanks too for the homemade wine. You are very thoughtful.

Home away from home-Best Frisco rental by far

I stayed in this rental over Thanksgiving break and it had everything I needed to make my Thanksgiving day Feast. The property is maintained with care and really feels like a home away from home. The owner is Awesome! Very easy to work with and responds quick to inquires. This place is in the middle of three different ski resorts. We visited Keystone and Breck by jumping on the shuttle that picked up 4 blocks from the house. Runs every 30 mins!! This place has everything you need- just bring clothes and your ski equipment. Perfect place for Kids or a group of couples looking for a house to rent. I cant wait for the chance to rent this place again!

Owner response:I love to hear when guests have enjoyed my home. I keep my kitchen well equipped and I agree the floor plan is perfect for two couples with kids. Also, the clubhouse has a great pool for the kids and 4 nice jacuzzies for the adults.

Excellent Experience

Hello, Just a quick note to say THANK YOU! We had a wonderful Christmas time at your condo in Frisco. Frisco is a lovely town and ideally situated to many activities. The restaurants, shops and historical places were great to visit. We went sledding, tubing, skiing, swimming and on a evening sleigh ride. Your condo suited the needs of our 7 member family perfectly. We were so glad to have found it on VRBO. Best wishes to you and your family in the coming year. I would say "yes!" to all the questions in the guidelines suggestion box.

Fall Splendor

Date of Stay: 09/29/10 Review Submitted: 10/02/10

I've been visiting Frisco for more than 15 years now, both winter and summer, but over the past three years have found that I like Fall the best . . .and Dorelle's home to be the nicest place to stay while there. Very cozy, well furnished in casual Colorado style, with all the amenities you could ask for at your fingertips. Works by local artists decorate the walls, and framed photos taken by the owner give newcomers a glimpse of what lies right outside their door ! A great place for families with kids and dogs, (off the busy main street, but still close enough to walk to restaurants and boutiques there.) Great fireplace, lofty ceilings and a host of tourist guide books and brochures available for your use while there. Can't get any better!

A Wonderful "Pet Friendly" Place to Vacation

This was our 2nd time vacationing at the house and we love it. The owners have provided everything you might need and it is very centrally located. Our dogs appreciate the fenced in yard (which is a rarity).

We booked the place to attend my son's wedding in September and my only complaint is that I could not stay longer to enjoy Dorelle's comfortable home. Everything and I mean everything was as good as or better than advertised. I look forward to working with Dorelle again next time I visit Frisco.

We so enjoy renting this lovely, spacious, well-equipped home. It is so easy to entertain in and relax with its two decks off the main level, which offer an opportunity to enjoy the lovely mountain views! We find the location ideal! Just a short walk to Frisco's quaint Main street, offering great shopping and dining. Also, a short walk to the beautiful Lake Dillon Marina, where hours can be leisurely spent watching the boats and enjoying a wonderful lunch. We feel very comfortable in this lovely home and view it as "our home" away from home! Always, a truly enjoyable holiday!

We have stayed in Dorelle's home in Frisco during the summer for the past three summers. It is by far the most "comfy" place we have ever stayed in Summit County (we have been going to Frisco for the last 20+ years). It's great!

We've spent 5 weeks during ski season in Dorelle's home each of the past 4 years. It's spacious, comfortable, well equipped and wonderfully located - close to great bike and hiking trails and even just a few short blocks walk into town where there's shopping and some very good restaurants. (Breckenridge is a short drive away where there are even more shops and restaurants.) We keep returning to Dorelle's home so obviously we're very happy staying there.

What a fabulous place at a great rate! Steps away from fabulous hiking and bike trails, a few short blocks to downtown Frisco and Frisco Bay Marina. If you have kids and/or a dog, this is the place to be! We will definitely be back! Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful home!!!

Dorelle -- We thoroughly enjoyed your lovely home. It was clean and comfortable, well-stocked, and with plenty of room for our good-sized group. Wonderful updated kitchen. Perfect place for our Thanksgiving feast! I will always recommend your MountainSide home to those guests we can't accommodate at ours.

This is a lovely patio home in Mountain Side with multiple levels and plenty of stairs. It is a great house for dogs and large groups. The downstair area is great for a kid hang out. Plenty of beds and all of the things you need to make your vacation comfortable. The clubhouse with pool and hot tubs is one of the main reasons I stay in Mountain Side. They do a good job taking care of it. I have tried to stay here more often but it is so popular that when I look for time, it's often booked. I highly recommend this property.

We spent a month at the house last May and did not want to leave...The views are breathtaking from the front and back of the house. The house itself has everything you could want..We felt like we were at home...We loved it so much, we are planning on going again this year. Thanks Dorelle for providing such lovely accommodations.

We just spent a week in this "patio home" and the description doesn't do it justice. We found it to be spacious, with ample room for privacy, beautifully decorated with a well-appointed kitchen. It was truly a home-away-from-home, but such a location! Every way you look you have an awesome view of the mountains. There were hiking trails for every ability level,paved bike trails, access to a pool and hottub, and numerous sights to see in the vicinity. The town is a short drive to Copper Mt. and Breckenridge, without their sense of crowdedness. I wish I had off work in the winter,to enjoy the snow sports and scenery there, but in the meantime, I can't wait to return next summer.

Hi, I hope you enjoyed your stay in my home and Summit County. I'd love to hear your comments both positive and negative so that I can maintain my home as comfortable for you as possible. Also, I'd love to hear what are your favorite restaurants, trails and activities. Thanks, Dorelle Ackermann
