The owner sold the property, so we had to find a hotel. Not what we want when we go the mountains.

Perfect Location

The location was in perfect proximity to Ski Apache. Soaking in the claw foot tub after a day of skiing was the best ending to an adventurous day. Plenty of room and ample heat. Would highly recommend!

Quiet and cozy

This was a great find last minute for a quick ski vacation. My kids loved the bunk beds. Only complaint would be the bath tub. It’s not functional as a shower and drained slow after use.

Spring Break

Some issues upon arrival, but manager was super easy to reach and took care of the problem as best she could. The bath only has a wand for a shower head, which made showering a bit awkward for the grown men. Otherwise, comfortable, easy location for skiing!

Cozy but needs some updating

It’s a cozy place but needs some updating. It wasn’t as clean as it should be, there were spider webs and I found a big spider crawling in my bed. The bunk beds had peppermint candy stuck to the comforter. The blinds were broken which let light in making it difficult to sleep in.

Needs improvement

Outside deck is being reconstructed which is fine. The walkway to the back apartment is uneven and there is no lighting at night. The bathtub is nice, but it is so tall it is not friendly for older folks with knee issues. A makeshift shower curtain on each side is water stained and does not appear clean and has a hand sprayer as a shower head. Place needs a shower. It is well decorated and the location is good. There was no smoke detector, only a carbon monoxide detector. The home appears all electric and needs a smoke detector. A little disappointed in the apartment, but worked out.

Great stay

Lovely condo in private, quiet area. Definitely try to arrive before dark and look for the gate with the number on it for the walkway to the door. AC was welcome this hot summer and did a good job. Décor was so nice and condo truly had all you could want or need for your stay, and we really appreciated the water conditioner. Unit is one level and only had a few small steps from the parking area. All in my family were comfortable in their beds and we rarely heard others around the property. We were entertained by deer and the wild horses and a quick drive up the adjoining county road rewarded us with elk up close. Courteous and friendly communication with the host really made us feel welcome! The only drawback (I hesitate to call it that) was the wraparound deck is in the process of being replaced and we weren't able to sit outside with the sunrise. It didn't take away from our stay as we just walked around and enjoyed the outdoors that way. Just something to be aware of if you have little ones or plan on grilling and picnicking. This property is a great value for the amenities and location and we would love to return in the winter or fall (to hear the elk!) and cozy up with the fireplace!
