About this property

Kid Friendly Escape w/ Private Hot Tub, Expansive Mud Room, Garage, and Remote Workspace!

***This home is not dog-friendly. There is a $1000 fine for bringing an unauthorized pet to this property.***

Enjoy this beautifully remodeled and taken care of three bedroom, three bath home!

This is the perfect family vacation or "work from home" retreat for any time of year. Relax in an open and bright floorplan that is warm and inviting. Plenty of windows and a sliding glass door to the back deck that offers direct access to a private hot tub. Enjoy and unwind after a fun day at the lake or on the slopes, there is plenty of room for everyone. The living room is open and comfortable with a full sleeper sofa and Smart TV equipped with HDMI cables. An integrated music speaker receiver system is located throughout the house. The wood burning fireplace and central heating will keep you cozy after a day in the snow! The airlocked mud room entry way welcomes you with space heat and heated tile floors.

The kitchen is fully equipped with anything the chefs of the family may need to fix a quick snack or create and host a full dinner menu. Breakfast is a breeze with a coffee maker, electric kettle, toaster, waffle iron, and oven griddle. The kitchen is supplied for what the "little one's" might need: kid friendly plates, cups and bowls. There is also a gas BBQ grill or a pellet grill on the back deck available for use.

The Primary Suite and two additional bedrooms are all located upstairs, with smart TVs throughout. The Primary Suite features an additional full sleeper sofa, walk-in closet, with space heater and heated tile floors in the bathroom. There is one additional full bathroom upstairs and one full bathroom on the first floor. All of the beds are super comfortable with available hypoallergenic pillows, duvet covers and extra blankets for the winter months. Dedicated office space is available in the Primary Bedroom loft as well as in an upper guest bedroom. There is a huge deck off of the front of the house, accessed through one upstairs bedroom, and another private deck in the back just off the dining room on the first level. There is also a private hot tub on the back deck for your enjoyment as well. Additional home amenities include: portable crib, high chair, baby gate, family board games, kids' activity table & chairs, cornhole set.

Outside off the back deck you will love the peaceful setting among the trees.

Beautiful Modern Farmhouse

My family and I had an amazing stay at this beautiful modern farmhouse property. It was exceptionally clean and had all the comforts of home. The house was well stocked with everything you could think of. Great amenities. Easy check in and out. In a nice neighborhood. Very close to the multiple ski areas, snow play, grocery stores, and restaurants. Nice backyard for sledding and snow play. Sleds and snow toys provided! The hot tub was nice to have after a day of skiing. Nice deck with pretty lighting for hanging out. Would definitely stay here again!

Winter Oasis with Room to Relax

The "Tahome" (as named by the owner) is very well-appointed and was the perfect home base for us during our winter ski holiday. There are many very thoughtful touches that made the stay luxurious including the large heated mud room for all our winter / ski boots and clothes, amazing wood-burning stove, hot tub and three big bedrooms for our family of teens and parents. The few downsides are hardly worth mentioning but good to know that the kitchen has minimal supplies of questionable quality so if you want to do any significant cooking, bring what you need. We were there during a snow storm and were surprised that there was no windshield scraper/brush in the garage. So be sure to bring that too if you're going in the winter. Other than that, we feel very lucky to have found this property and would love to return again in the future.
