Great place, great stay

Was the perfect spot for us and our Yorkie, Chester. Small pet friendly area and wonderful fireplace to sit by. Kitchen was perfect for light cooking and balcony had a wonderful view to sit and enjoy. 5 min (or less) drive to Bryce ski and golf resort.

Great stay! Highly recommended!

Great place for a weekend getaway or a longer stay for 2. Just as described. Had an issue with the sliding glass door and the maintenance person was quick to return my messages. Will definitely consider returning in the future due to the peace and quite of the condos!

Clean, cozy and relaxing

The condo is located in a quiet area with a lovely view of the nearby woods in summer. The Lake Laura access path is halfway down the hill to the road. The Pale Fire brewery is also walking distance (less than 0.5 miles). We enjoyed sitting out on the deck for meals and would definitely come again!

Cute for couples

This is a cute little property very close to the ski resort of Bryce Mountain.It is on a steep hill and can be confusing to locate the proper building. However, we were able to do so. The property was very warm and welcoming upon entry. It was also very clean. Things were on a small scale – small fridge, small stove, small counters, etc.The bed was low, of which I am not a fan, but other people might prefer. I was a little bit stressed because I had to ask for the door code, which had been promised the morning of our stay but was not given to us until the afternoon. The cell service at Bryce resort is spotty, so I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to get the code once I arrived on site.Everything worked out and we were happy with the cute little apartment.
