Vacation Rentals by Owner

Great Location - Beautiful Interior Design

Guest: Andee (Southern Florida)
Date of Stay: 10/13/11 Review Submitted: 10/20/11

I'm a value shopper, so naturally I compared prices with other, similar vacation rentals. I also knew from TripAdvisor that this property comes highly recommended. This condo at first seemed a bit more expensive than the others, but upon reading the reviews I decided it was probably worth it. I stayed at the condo for four (4) nights in mid-October. I've never had such a good sleep except for in my own bed! Since I was taking advantage of the great outdoors and having an active vacation, I care about my sleep. The king-size bed has a heated mattress pad with controls for both sides of the bed. You can enjoy the serenity of the resort while still being close enough to the grocery store, pharmacy, restaurants, etc. The place was super quiet and sure beats a hotel. It has a great interior design for feeling cozy and at home while taking it up a notch with resort-like amenities. I'll definitely return for ski season and for hiking in the summer- same great location for activities of all seasons. No question in my mind that all of the extras (did I mention that bed?!) way more than justified any difference in price; definitely a better value.

Great Condo for outdoor activities

We spent 3 days in September. The signs of fall were just starting to appear. This condo location is great for bikers/hiking/mountain biking. The road to Targhee is right out the door. Good location for Targhee access, and far enough from Drigg, but not too far. Condo facilites are new, clean, well laid out. Owners were great to work with and made it very easy to use the condo.

Perfect Lodging Arrangements

This condo was perfect in all respects. It was clean, up-to-date, and well equipped. We enjoyed both decks - a delightful place to have some appetizers and drinks after an exhausting day of touring and hiking. The owner was easy with which to communicate and he gave us good instructions. When we return to the area, this for sure will be our choice for lodging.

Great Place to Stay

Guest: Bill (Philadelphia, PA)
Date of Stay: 08/05/11 Review Submitted: 11/14/11

This condo( 2 bdrms.) was perfect for my family. There was plenty of room for two adults and two teenagers. The condo was well stocked and had everything we needed. I liked sitting on the balcony every morning just listening to the stream and enjoying my coffee. The location was perfect as a home base for sightseeing. We enjoyed driving over the mountain to Jackson Hole and the Grand Tetons. But I will say, Yellowstone is a bit further (1-1/2 to 2 hrs.) and worth the trip, which we did twice. We really had alot of fun at the Driggs Drive-In ( a first for my kids) and the homemade milkshakes were the best! We would definitely recommend this condo to anyone looking for a home away from home. David was a pleasure to work with and was very helpful. If we come out this way again, we will definitely stay here. Thanks again.

My wife and I throughly enjoyed our 3 night stay in the 1 BR/1 Bath condo. Very comfortable, great location and the condo included all amenities one would need while on vacation. The owner (David) was exectremely helpful and forthcoming with advice on activities in the area. Great experience. Hope to come back soon.

A Hidden Gem

Guest: Jamie (Greensboro, NC)
Date of Stay: 06/30/11 Review Submitted: 07/08/11

We recently stayed in the 1-Bedroom condo and it was wonderful. The location of the condo is perfect - easily accessible to town and lots of activities. The condo itself was immaculate and it was equipped with all the items that you need for a great stay. The balcony was probably our favorite feature as it overlooks wooded land with a bubbling creek (thanks to snow melt). You instantly feel relaxed just sitting there. We spent about a week in the Jackson Hole area. During the first part of our trip, we stayed in downtown Jackson. After spending one night in the condo, we wondered why we didn't stay there for our whole vacation! Sometimes you never know what you get when renting a home from someone. I must say that David was an absolute joy to rent from. He's very attentive and will help you with anything you need for your stay. Thanks, David, for the fabulous accommodations. We look forward to returning!

2 BR Condominium Home

Guest: Steve (Woodinville, WA)
Date of Stay: 03/16/11 Review Submitted: 03/21/11

If you're looking for a home away from home this is the place! Super comfortable and plenty of room for everyone. Great kitchen for fixing meals (really nice grocery store just 10 minutes away or bring your own food). We ate breakfast and dinner there every day and could have easily made sandwiches to take up to the mountain. Convenient and HUGE savings - not having to eat out if you don't want to. The location is perfect - 15 minutes to Targhee and less than 10 to town. This in itself is reason enough to rent here but there's also a fantastic owner who is a terrific host. In addition, there are all the nice touches like the "welcome goody basket", comfortable furniture, family games and even a few movies (or bring your own). The kitchen is well stocked with utensils and gadgets (coffee pot, blender, toaster, pizza cutter, etc, etc), not to mention coffee & coffee filters, tea, and basic cooking items like salt, cooking oil, etc. If you're looking for the very best bang for your buck don't look any further and sign up quick. This gem won't last.

Ditto to all these excellent reviews

Stayed in the two-bedroom with some friends over President's Day weekend. The condo was wonderful, with lots of personal touches to make it extra-special. This condo is spacious, beautiful, comfortable, well-appointed, reasonably priced for how nice it is, and very convenient to everything in the area. Thanks David for your great communication, follow-through, and warm welcome. Skiers: I heartily recommend making the drive to Jackson Hole, as well as skiing Targhee while you're there; Jackson is awesome, and--like the condo--well worth the money. Take advantage of their free morning guided tour of the mountain, it was great, and the ski school lesson and instructor were the best I've ever had at any ski area.

We were completely thrilled with this condo and the owner's "above and beyond" service, from the responsive emails, to keeping the place well stocked for our many cooking adventures to following up with us on items left behind. The unit is very comfy and clean, with great beds and close to the hot tubs. We can't wait to come back next year and enjoy the great Targhee snow!

My wife and I stayed in David's condo over New Years 2011. The condo was clean and well furnished. We found the pictures David sent us to be very representative of the condo. The condo is located between Driggs and Grand Targhee, and is only a short drive to either. David was a great host. He helped us with directions during our arrival in a winter storm, and also supplied some good restaurant recommendations. It was a great vacation and we hope to come back soon.

We have stayed in this beautiful condo several times in the past year. When we arrive we feel as though we have arrived "home". The condo is always welcoming, well stocked and exceptionally clean and maintained. The owner goes out of his way to make your stay enjoyable and comfortable. This attention to detail, combined with the outstanding location along side a gorgeous creek in the summer and an array of colorful foliage in the Fall make this condo one of our all time favorites!! Thank you very much for making our stays so wonderful!

Well I have stayed in both their 2 Bedroom Condo & their 1 Bedroom Condo and both of them are fabulous! I have come over in early September to run up at Grand Targhee and have stayed in these condos. The beds are AMAZING! You just melt into them! The condos have everything that you need for cooking and relaxing! And to have access to the hot tub is wonderful. The condos are very quiet, you can't hear anyone around you. I will definitely be back again to stay in both the 2 Bedroom or the 1 Bedroom. David - Thanks for everything!

Teton Creek Resort

Guest: RunnerGirl (Los Alamos, NM)
Date of Stay: 07/22/10 Review Submitted: 09/22/10

Our stay overall was great. Only one thing that could have turned into a major incident was avoided, simply because our plans changed. There was supposed to have been a grill, and when we got there it wasn't around. Our dinner plans changed at the last moment BEFORE we even knew there wasn't a grill. Had we gone ahead with our plans, had guests coming for a barbque, and not had a grill, the results would have been disastrous! Fortunately, that didn't happen. Next time, the owner should follow through and have a grill, when he says he's going to have one.

Owner response:We listen to our guests... and we bought brand new gas grills, one each for one- and two-bedroom condos! When this particular misunderstanding occurred, we offered to buy a grill immediately, but the guest allowed as how her plans had changed and that she no longer needed it. We're so glad she let us know--we always appreciate feedback from our guests, and we try to make things right on the rare occasions where misunderstandings do pop up.

We stayed in the 1 bedrm. cndo and Nancy, the condo mgr. went above & beyond with our every need. This condo is decorated as if by a professional (non-white walls), stocked with everything we could ever want such as plastic wrap, olive oil, thick towels and thick tp, coffee, and much more. And they leave room for YOUR food. The bed is top of the line, it is quiet with a nice view, and the location is perfect. Only one negative, slow internet access. We will be back.

Owner response:We discovered that the internet connection was slow. To fix that we're ordering another router and modem, and will be installing those at increased speed. Thanks to our special guests, the Randalls, for pointing that out: it's always been our goal to have the nicest condos in the Valley, and suggestions such as theirs are the best way we can improve!

The condo was nicer than expected, and was nicely stocked with utensils and just about everything we would need to cook, wash clothes, etc. I didn't mind getting up and making breakfast every morning; the kitchen was very user friendly. Our kids are 18 and 22 and my daughter look over the 1 bathroom and raved about it. My husband and I played scrabble with the kids a couple nights, the games were a nice touch. It was like staying at a friends place. Thank you so much, this was a real good "find" for us. We hope to come back. Regards, John, Mary, Danielle and Chris

We had a wonderful stay in this condo! It was homey, spacious , and beautifully decorated. The setting was stunning and not nearly as crowded as the Jackson Hole area. We thought the scenery in this area was as beautiful as on the east side ot the Tetons. We loved the pine trees, aspen trees, and widlflowers. There were several great hiking trails at the Targhee ski resort and on one of our hikes we even saw a moose! We can't wait to come again!

Over the years, we have stayed at different units within the Teton Creek Resort. This one has been by far the nicest and where we stayed twice this past winter. Beds are very comfortable, a well stocked kitchen and a quiet 2nd floor, end unit. Also, a phone that allows you to make a long distance credit card call--a rarity in vacation condos these days. The owners of this unit go the "extra" mile to accommodate you.
