Thank you for the use of your home. We had a wonderful time and the snow was great. I think it snowed every day we were there and they got about 17” the three days we skied. It sounds like they got dumped on after we left so that is great. Thanks again for the home it make the trip very memorable. Regards, Scott

Dear Leila – On behalf of me and my family, Thank you for helping us with a great ski vacation. We really enjoyed staying at your condo in Steamboat. The layout and accommodation where perfect. We (I) had football games going on upstairs and we had non-stop Tinker Bell playing on the DVD downstairs. I learned so much about fairies and they showed up with snow on the weekend. Thanks again for a great stay. v/r –Randy

We stayed here over the weekend. The pictures do not do it justice. It is adorable and definitely has a fun, cozy, log cabin feel. We had 12 adults in our party and there was plenty of room to spread out. The large table in the dining room was perfect for dinner and games. Very clean, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend to others. Leila was very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed and answered all emails and questions very quickly. Thank you so much for your hospitality!

Hi Leila, I wanted to send a belated note thanking you for the stay and telling you how much we enjoyed your condo! The place worked out great for us, and we all loved Steamboat! We especially enjoyed the ski in/ski out ability, which we're usually not accustomed to. Thanks again! - Mike

A group of us stayed up here for a weekend and we had an amazing time! The owners were great to work with and the place was in a perfect location, very clean and more than comfortable for 10 girls. I would stay here again on my next trip to steamboat!

We've stayed at both of the Thomas' condos a few times for skiing. Both are always clean and comfortable. Very easy to ski-in/ski-out. This one is huge. It is absolutely the largest ski condo I'v ever seen. Great kitchen, comfy bed, etc. Everything was great!

We love the Norwegian Log Home!! I have a group of ski jumpers that travel from Minnesota to Steamboat every year and for the past two years have been fortunate enough to have found this home. It's our home away from home. The owners are wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend this property and their other property!!! The Central Division Ski Jumping Team.

Hi Leila, Thanks for sharing your Steamboat home with us last weekend. It is a perfect place for two families and we really appreciated the extra time on Sunday. Thanks a bunch. Have a great weekend. Pam

Hello Leila, I just wanted to thank you for the use of your condo in Steamboat this past weekend. It was perfect for the kids and adults. We could walk to the Snowflower condos to use the pool which was nice. One evening Jeff and I were walking down and a bear came walking out of the parking garage. He walked around the corner and we ran upstairs! Our baseball team went 2-2 so we didn't play Sunday. At least it was a beautiful sunny day to enjoy the springs down in town. We would love to use the condo again next time we go up. Thanks again, Brad (rented both norwegian log and snowflower multiple times)

Leila: As you know, we have vacated the Norwegian Log condo. We had a great time, and hope to return soon. The wood was delivered, as were extra towels by your housekeeper and her husband. He was very thoughtful in giving us his cell phone in case anything went wrong. We had lots of snow and great weather, so it couldn’t have been a better trip. I don’t think anything else was a problem, so I thank you again for your hospitality. Rod

HUGE condo, gorgeous setting, helpful owner!

Date of Stay: 02/08/10 Review Submitted: 01/10/11

This condo was perfect for our group. A great ski in/ski out location. 4 clean, comfortable rooms spread out over two floors, two separate living rooms, tons of amenities and a very, very cozy feel. The wraparound deck is spectacular and the setting is gorgeous, nestled among the trees/woods--relaxing in the hot tub here was wonderful after a long day of skiing. The kitchen is stocked with supplies and the owner was very helpful and responsive. We couldn't have asked for a better place or experience!

We had a outstanding time with the exception of my son breaking his thumb and had to have surgury. Your home was perfect and we all really enjoyed everything about it. If we get back to Steamboat I will for sure be getting in contact with you again. We overloading on groceries and left a little beer and food in the fridge for the next lucky renter, I hope that was OK. Thanks again Leila!

I'm finally getting around to reviewing this property. I stayed here for a getaway with a gaggle of gals. It was perfect. Huge enough that we all had our own space, but still had an essence of coziness. The kitchen had all the amenities. We took turns with gourmet meals every night and had everything we needed. No need to go out, although the Slopeside Grill is nearby. Skiied in and out. I would definitely recommend this place for families with teens, kids, groups etc. The floor plan is laid out so that everyone has space to divide up and watch movies, play games or just talk quietly by the fireplace. Leila was easy to work with, warm and very helpful. I stayed at her other fabulous property more recently with a smaller group. If you can make it to Steamboat, stay here.

its a real ski in and ski out!

super cool floor plan affords lots of space to get lost in. (keep an eye on those teenagers!) ideal for big groups/multi families/college kids wanting to stay together but have their own space. the kitchen is very well equipped (satisfied my very particular foodie wife) and the gondola is RIGHT THERE. we skied down to the gondola and back in to the condo every day without any problems.

Leila, I received the condo security deposit- thank you. We really enjoyed our Steamboat vacation and your condo worked very well for us! The location was great. After one sunny day skiing on minimal snow cover, we were overwhelmed with over 50 inches of new snow over the next 3 days. It was wonderful! Thanks, Linda

This townhome is in a great location and perfect for a family or several families (family reunion?) on a trip together. It is very spacious yet cozy and charming at the same time. We had plenty of room to put the kids to bed on time and then watch movies or play games with the adults. It was also so nice to have a full-service kitchen. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Steamboat.
