  My friends and I ski Breck every year. Our regular rental had been taken and I turned to Vacation By Owner for another place to stay. I found Valerie's place and fell in love with the pictures. Once my party arrived at the home, there was a warm feeling about it. The house is very up to date with amenities. It was within walking distance to downtown Frisco. The big screen TV downstairs was perfect for "movie night". It was great staying there and we will return for another week next year.

  We have stayed at this property several times, both in summer and in winter. The listing description and photos are very accurate. The property is in a great location for all summer and winter activities, including both downhill and cross country skiing, and hiking and biking. The unit has always been very clean and well--appointed. Both the manager and owner have always been helpful and gracious. We have recommended the property to friends.

  Allow me to introduce myself: my name is Maddy, and I'm a yellow labrador retriever. My owners have rented this same condo for several years. They keep coming back because it provides all that they need and desire: privacy (on the lake is wonderful for that and the view is gorgeous), spaciousness, close proximity to Frisco and the bike path, great and comfortable accomodations, terrific and helpful owners, and maybe most importantly--at least, in my opinion--it's dog friendly! Good thing, since I absolutely insist on going along on this vacation because I love climbing mountains; it's also great to have Lake Dillon right there for a quick swim. I sure love my home-away-from-home in Colorado!

• Place was a mess!

  Upon arrival the condo had not been cleaned. The entire place was a mess, we didn't have sheets or towels and there was food all over the floor in the kitchen and living room. The basement bedroom had tissues on the floor next to a bottle of lotion. The manager apologized when I called and advised the cleaning deposit would be refunded, it hasn't. Also, the stereo system is very complicated and didn't work consistently. Randomly it would stop working and only put put static. Each year we spend 2 different long weekends in the mountains in condo rentals, I would not return nor recommend this place to anyone.

  Owner response: Bad renters! This renter caused us a lot of problems with our neighbors! We have never had neighbors complain before - but they called us and said they couldn't sleep the entire night due to the loud noise coming from our home from this groups large party that went all night long. The cleaning that she is upset about is not a deposit - it is included in the rental and my cleaning lady came and I paid her, for a full clean. There was a mix up which we corrected. My cleaning lady is very reliable normally but her son was at the ER that day and she asked her backup to clean - but they didn't! So as soon as she heard, she rushed over - and did a full clean she told me. I have used her for years and she is great - I have no reason to distrust her. This group did come into the place and find it not clean, but cleaner was there within a few hours, and renters told her don't worry and were satisfied. My manager , before the cleaner showed up, said, since the cleaning was not done we will refund you what we would pay her. But she did come and clean! The only deposit is a damage deposit, and this group got a full refund of the damage deposit - so I did not keep any deposit from them. But with their rudeness to my neighbors - we live in a very quiet residential small neighborhood - I would never trust them in my home again. Our home is not set up for large loud parties - no stereo for that exists.

  Great rental; great location; very welcoming accommodations. VRBO listing description and photos are accurate. The condo was very clean and well-maintained. Valerie, the owner, was very helpful. We would highly recommend this property to friends and family. Moose, our dog, gives the property 'five paws'. Thank you for a great stay.

  We arrived home last night from our stay in your Frisco condo. It was absolutely wonderful for our family. We enjoyed it very much. Your attention to details in providing us with staples including shampoo,soap and lotions was an unexpected treat. The pantry was stocked with additional paper toweling and toilet paper. We couldn't have been treated better than if we were being hosted by a relative.

  Just wanted to say thank you once again for the use of your wonderful home. We had an absolute blast and your home was extremely clean, comfortable, and relaxing. The weather was perfect on Friday and we managed to leave around 11. I also passed on what a great house it was to my parents. Thanks again. (3/24/2009) Sincerely, Lenny H.
