First and foremost, this property is very spacious both indoors and outdoors! Plenty of privacy. The scenery was amazing and fall foliage was at its peak in the area. The house had everything we needed and then some. Communication during the booking process all the way to check-out was superb! I had a minor issue with the entry code when I arrived but it was resolved immediately. I would definitely stay here again!

It's really a good and big place. If you're into calm and peaceful atmosphere, this place is the best as there are no outside noises. The night sky view from this place is stunning, also the property has outdoor setup for a camp fire. The place has a private pond with fishes. The host was super communicative. I wish the place had couple more condiments, toiletries, a kitchen cutting board. Otherwise, I would recommend this place.

Overall great stay! We stayed here for 3 nights with my parents and our kids for a family ski trip. The house was a good size for our group. They have everything needed for kids / babies - pack n play, high chair, toddler kitchen essentials. Plenty of board and card games as well as air hockey and basketball in the basement. 10 minute drive from elk ski mountain made it very convenient.

Very Happy with our stay. The house is less than 10 minutes to Elk and very convenient. Everything needed to stay was provided in addition towels, paper towel, toilet paper, and sheets. This was nice and convenient as other vrbos don’t always provide those items. Everything went smoothly and seamless with our check in, stay, and check out. I would highly recommend the house and Elk mountain.

What a great place to stay! So much space, and every amenity you could ever want. We were a group of 6 (4 adults and 2 teenagers). We came for a weekend of skiing and relaxing, that is what we got! We were so close to the mountain, the mornings were easy. Coming back was a breeze! We had so much space, and really felt at home. We will be back!

Place was in great shape, plenty of room, very nice beds, linens etc. We did watch the Eagles lose there but the skiing at Elk and great accommodations made up for it! Also met the owner, Rob, who was extremely accommodating. We would definitely go back! One piece of information that might be helpful, Waze did not work well for mapping trip back and forth to Elk but google maps did (not sure why, it was very direct, 4.5 miles but Waze was giving a 9 mile convoluted route).
