Thank you for providing a wonderful getaway! The furnishings are ultra-comfortable and aesthetically pleasing - the right mix of tasteful and 'cute'. Especially appreciated the extra amenities not found in many condos - shampoo and soap in showers, kitchen products, plush/soft towels, plentiful lighting with dimmer switches, good wood supply with kindling, extra pillows and blankets, games, etc. The attention to detail, along with the artistry of your handcrafted decor, makes the condo truly spe

Jennie, Thank you for letting us use your condo. The location is excellent; walking distance to downtown Frisco and close to Copper Mt. Your condo is beautiful! Very home-like. The big question was whether you did all the quilting yourself? The layout was perfect for our group. We had to replace one burned out light bulb (from your supply) over the sink in the master bedroom. I noticed that the vertical blinds off the deck have one separated louver. Otherwise everything worked perfectly.

We had a wonderful time at this charming condo. Going to sleep with the sounds of the creek and waking up to a sunny view of the mountains was perfect. As a swimmer, I really enjoyed the pool for swimming laps after a day of skiing. The kitchen was well provisioned for making a Thanksgiving meal and the real wood fireplace was fabulous too! We will definately stay there again!

What a beautiful environment for our vacation.....both inside and out! The beauty of the region is also reflected in your lovely condo. Words cannot truly describe what a wonderful time we've had! Frisco is a delightful town, in fact, our favorite of all those visited in the area! Your condo felt like home - very comfortable and embracing. We had many laughs, played games, and remembered!

The condo's decor and comfort were delightful. We especially enjoyed the view, the fireplace, and the well-stocked kitchen. Eating together in the cozy dining area was a great way to end the day. We enjoyed eating at the Log Cabin and browsing the consignment shops in Frisco. The dinner sleigh ride at Two Below Zero and tubing at the Frisco Adventure Park were great fun. Frisco is such a great place to visit and is only a short drive to the ski resorts.

Thank you so much for opening up your retreat for others to use. You have it decorated so nice, and we loved how central it was to all the places we wanted to go. We enjoyed 3 wonderful days in Keystone with our friends prior to arriving here. We skied Keystone twice and Breck once. We also tubed at Copper Mountain. We spent the day at Vail but didn't ski. The weather was pretty warm so skiing was a bit slushy by the afternoons. We did lots of exploring at Vail, Breck, and Frisco - and of course, hit the Outlet Mall! Enjoyed dinners at The Boatyard, The Dam Brewery, and Erics in the Basement at Breck. Thanks again!

Dear Dan and Jennie - Thank you so much for letting us stay in your 'Mountain Retreat'. Within one hour of arriving, Matt said, 'This place is great, it feels like home'. We all love your place, it dfinitely is a reflection of you two. We went to the brewerys in Breckenridge and Dillon,they were great. Went for a drive to Mt Evans, but Mary made us turn around at 4 miles into the drive up. The weather was colder/wetter than normal. Matt enjoyed running on the trail to Copper Mountain. The rest of us did some walking and all did a little hiking.

I liked the condo! (From Eleanor) This was a particularly special trip for me as I was able to meet up with two friends from HS that i haven't seen in 22 years. Connor took a snow board lesson at A-Basin, and made some great turns. Eleanor stayed here and took care of Grandma. We had a great vacation, and we can't wait to come back! Thanks Mom and Dad!

Enjoyed our stay at your condo. Very cute and well equipped. Frisco is a nice town and not as busy as Breckenridge, which we liked. Skied 1 day at Breckenridge (snowing and blowing), but then had 2 great days at Keystone. We happened to find a deal online - 3 days for $99 and although we only skied 2, a much better bargain than Breckenridge. Glad your condo was open for the dates we needed!

We really had a great time. Your condo was womderful, and we appreciate your sharing it with us. The snow was awesome and Breckenridge was in good shape. The view from the master bedroom was amazing. We made chili and homemade spaghetti sauce. We didn't even eat out, except for lunch. We skied Sunday and Monday, then Asher and Brian took snowboard lessons on Tuesday. On Wednesday we planned to ski, but instead we shopped in the snow. For our last night we listened to the wind and played Cranium. Thanks so much.

Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah! Thank you for letting us stay in your cozy condo. It is very comfortable and warm. Thanks for supplying the firewood; we had a roaring fire each night. Showers were awesome afer a day of skiing - particularly liked the shower with the stone floor - a bonus foot massage. The pine furniture is beautiful. The skiing was fantastic - we had tons of powder. What a beautiful area! Thanks again! P.S. We used the grill (same one we have!) and couldn't find grill utensils - only thing we couldn't find. We made do though!

I stayed in the "QUILT" condo nine days ending April 14,2008 and was pleased in every way. It is warm, cozy feeling, comfortable and fully equiped---even including fireplace wood for our nightly fires. We made a number of our meals in the condo and walked just a couple blocks to good restaurants in downtown Frisco. It was a short drive to skiing at Keystone, Breckenridge, Arapahoe basin and Copper Mountain. I highly recommend this condo.

We are so in love with the 'Mountain Retreat'. We hope to make it back once more in October for our Anniversary - 38 years. My memory of this trip will be from our day in Vail. We rode the gondola up to the very top of the hill, and a storm came in. So we were STUCK up on top. They said if the storm didn't move out, the workers drive their own cars up and drive us all down. The thunder and lightning are VERY loud up there, and the rain drops are huge and cold!! Randy and I helped make a vase at the glass blowing place -that was awesome! We purchased the vase!

It did not take us long to figure out all outdoor activities needed to be done in the morning. We girls certainly didn't mind because shopping can be done in any kind of weather (well, almost). We certainly had an active vacation! We biked around Frisco and ALL the way to Breckenridge (pant pant). Went boating and saw lots of sights! The scenry is stunning. Kelsy's top 3 favorite things: 1) boating on Lake Dillon, 2) glass blowing demonstration, and 3) gondola ride and bungie trampoline at Vail. I would love to return and take my bike down the 'hill' at Vail! Your home is beautiful. The quilts inspired me to dust off my 3 machines at home! It really is a lovely place!

It started out great, until Shawn's altitude sickness kicked in on Weds pm! We were still able to see and do things until Friday. THEN, he got the stomach flu. We just hung around the condo on Fri and relaxed. His friend is also a taxidermist in Parshal, so we visited with him and his wife. On Thursday, we took a drive and found an elk antler that had recently been shed. Neat! Took a trip to Rocky Mtn Nat'l Park, and saw 7 moose. The scenery here is amazing! Your condo is so cozy. Felt like we were in our own home. The little touches such as the soap and lotion is a nice touch! The Creek is a relaxing sound I won't soon forget! Thanks much!

Came here from the western slope to remodel the Frisco Wal-Mart. We enjoyed our stay. Your place is awesome! We worked graveyards, so we didn't get to do much, but we still had a great time. Johnny G's nightclub was off the hook! Hottest girls in Frisco, and good music. We also enjoyed the Mossejaw Tavern, and playing 50 cents pool. The pool and hot tub here were tight; definitely relaxing after a hard night at work. Hope to be back here soon and enjoy Frisco some more. Our luv to everyone.
