We were there for an outdoor concert and it was such an easy walk to the base where the main stage was located. The house was well stocked and had great views from the porch. I'm sure this house is even better during the ski season when it is ski in - ski out.
We've stayed along the mountain for several years and this is hands down the best place we've rented! Great location, great space, great hosts! 10 out of 10!
We had an unfortunate experience with the property not being as described.The night before check in we were made aware that the fireplace (which was our number 1 amenity must have) was boarded up and had been for almost a year of which was not updated in the listing. Further more this is a ski out hike in. It’s on the bunny hill of which you have to take the magic carpet to access. The magic carpet closes at 5pm, so you’re unable to get back to the house without a significant hike after that time.
Great communication with property owner. Convenient to the slopes although a bit of a up hill walk back. Well stocked with Coffee, spices, pots and pans as well as towels, sheets and firewood. We definitely plan on going back and staying at it again. The kids and us absolutely loved it.
Plenty of space to spread out and everything we needed to cook meals. Can’t beat the access to the mountain bike park slopes! Beds and couch were very comfortable and we appreciated the cozy blankets, extra fans, quality sheets, plenty of towels and the inclusion of things like trash bags and dish detergent!The interior was well cleaned however there is construction going on around the fireplace unit with large boards covering the space so it is not exactly as pictured in the listing right now. We didn’t need to use the electric fireplace anyway, it is just a bit unsightly and was unexpected. There were also pallets of construction materials in the unit’s parking spot so that we could not pull all the way into the spot. The lower level has a bit of a musty smell, common in these older units, that aggravated allergies for a few of us. Fortunately the lovely weather meant we could open up the doors to the balcony and air out two of the bedrooms. We appreciated that fans were already running when we arrived on a warm day.We did have one significant safety concern during our stay. The railings on the outdoor balcony upstairs (main level) and on the loft were very loose and broken in places. They moved several inches out if one was to lean on them. I was worried someone would forget, lean on them and fall! Hopefully these are being repaired soon.

Directly above the snowboard park!
We had a party of six, and the size of the home was perfect. Teenage boys were out the door and the rest of us could access slopes whenever we wanted. Jennifer is one of the kindest owners we have ever dealt with. Loved it!
We had a great stay! Directions from owner for check-in and other information were very helpful. The parking lot for the complex was very small/tight with the new garbage dumpster house being built. Also, the hot water did not last long for showers. Otherwise the location was amazing and we enjoyed our stay. Thanks!
We had an amazing time with our kids and their cousins being right on the slope. We were thrilled to benefit from recent cold front and arrived to snow covered grounds and hill. The kids had a blast. We enjoyed many games of Uno at the large table and loved having a fire going. Kitchen is stocked with all things needed and the younger kids loved the bunk bed room and the teens loved the loft. Love that it was kid friendly, with bunk and loft space and even walkie talkies! Could not have been more perfect. So thankful for the opportunity to use this location and the kids could practice their skiing. Wonderful!
First off let me say this place was amazing we loved it. The only disadvantage is the location at night is a pretty good walk off the slopes. The location is right off the bunny slope. Not the park. Used to be the park. So it’s only open during the day and no lights at night. You rely on a conveyor belt lift to go up the hill. And it closes at 5pm. That being said we had a true beginner with us and having the bunny slope there was perfect for her and made it very convenient. The house is stocked with everything you could possibly need and the owners were very nice and helpful. We had a great time and would definitely come back again.
We really enjoyed our stay here! The kitchen is well stocked and there were plenty of toys for the kids to play with! We loved the wood burning fire place also! The snow machines were on while we were there and they were the perfect white noise to help me sleep!
The younger kids were able to sled right outside and there were several sleds provided!
It rained one day while we were here which made the snow very slick. In order to get down to the slopes you have to walk down a hill. While we were there this hill was very slick and made it difficult to get our kids down. There are stairs but you can’t use them as they belong
SKI IN SKI OUT Christmas gift to kids and grandkids
We all had a lovely time skiing on one of the best weekends for snow at this quaint home with a cozy wood burning fireplace. The house was a perfect location for our young novice skiers/snow boarders. We could not have asked for a better location directly in front beginner slope with the tunnel lift. The house had numerous age appropriate toys and crafts/books for our 5 year old granddaughter which kept her occupied when the rest of the group was still skiing. We loved the ability to come in and eat, take a small break, then head back out again to the slopes. The kitchen was stocked with coffee, tea, hot chocolate and had many spices which made cooking so much tastier. All in all, we had a wonderful trip and I'd go back again if time permitted this year.

Amazing family vacation
This trip was everything my family and I had hoped for and more. The chalet was perfect for my family of 6 with all the comforts of home and more. Jennifer was great to work with and provided us with allot of information in regards to the area. Being from Louisiana we do not have much opportunity to play in the snow. With the ski resort literally right out the back door we were able to enjoy all the snow we wanted but be close enough to the chalet when it got too cold for the little ones. That is when the fireplace and all of the provided wood came in handy! Nothing better than watching the snow fall while sitting next to the fire. We are already talking about our next return trip to this amazing chalet!
Thank you Jennifer for being such a gracious host!
The location was great, walkable to the resort and the views were amazing. Jennifer was an amazing host who went out of her way to make our stay more comfortable.
