This process helps prevent guests from becoming lost or stuck on neighborhood roads and supports our positive relationship with nearby residents.

The house was amazing. Great location at Brighton right on the Milly Lift. We had a large group with three families and the house accomodated everyone comfortably. The house manager was easy to deal with. I highly recommend this house
This house has everything we needed for a comfortable and fun stay during our snowboarding week in the canyons! Cozy, comfortable and convenient! The views were amazing and being able to hop over the hill to the loft was perfect! We hope to return soon!

We always know it will be clean, and the perfect place for our family to gather. The home is fully equipped for cooking meals and enjoying all that Brighton has to offer. Cottonwood Lodging, the property manager is superb. I can’t rave enough about how quickly they respond and how proactive they are to anticipate my needs. They are very accommodating and a pleasure to work with.
This house was amazing! Plenty of rooms and beds for our group, and being able to ski in and ski out was unbeatable! Owner's of the house had every appliance and kitchenware needed. Property managers were very communicative and easy to get a hold of! We hope this place is available for our trip next year!

The house was great for our ski trip. The management team was very responsive to questions or issues. Kitchen was well stocked. Great TV room in the basement. Wood provided for the fireplace. Water Vaporizers in each bedroom. Sauna was popular. Only issue was the non-functioning hot tub. Great property.

Hi Jennifer! We are happy to hear that the home was clean and spacious. The hot tub, sauna and location make this home one of a kind! We look forward to your next visit!
We stayed at this property with a group of friends for skiing and had an amazing experience. The house was perfect - the kitchen was great for cooking for a large group, the house was well taken care, and we loved the hot tub and sauna. We came during an extremely snowy week, and the host was in constant contact about tractions requirements and weather alerts. They were even willing to accommodate leaving our cars in the driveway late on our check day when several feet of snow fell - although the road and driveway ended up being plowed very quickly so it wasn't an issue.

We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed the home and it's amenities. We try very hard to communicate with our guests so that we can best accommodate their needs, especially during heavy snowfall. We want to ensure everyone's safety. Thank you for your review. We hope to host you again sometime.
We couldn’t have asked for better. This home is in a convenient location for skiing. Very quiet. Great views. Large rooms and a master bedroom/bathroom that is amazing. All high end appliances in the kitchen. Loved the hot tub and sauna too. Make sure you do have snow tires and 4 wheel drive. We had 9 adults and 2 kids with us. Everyone enjoyed it. I would rent this again in a heartbeat. Very responsive owner as well.

La Vista house in Brighton was perfect for our three generation family of 13. Very spacious and well-equipped. The management was very responsive and helpful. The jacuzzi was not functioning for the first three days, but they did everything they could to get it running. We used AltaProvisions for grocery delivery and Susie did a great job.

Hi Jaki! Thank you so much for sharing. We are happy to host a lovely family like yours, and it's great to hear that we could be helpful. Looking forward to future opportunities to host you!
The house is right next to the Milly Express - easy access in and out.
This was a big snow year so getting up the private road to the house was challenging - you must have 4WD or else you won’t make it.
The house is a little quirky. The 6th bedroom has a washer/dryer in it, no closet or hooks, and no access to a bathroom. Not really a bedroom except that it has a bed. We managed anyway.
The kitchen is great and there were lots of spices, etc. left over in the pantry, which was nice.
The management team was great - very responsive and accommodating.

Reviewer Comments:
This is an absolute unit of a cabin but still retains the immersive charm expected from a winter getaway. It is situated right on the mountain above Milly Express and is a true ski in/out, albeit slightly more difficult to ski back in than it was to ski out. The cabin itself has everything you could want and more - hot tub overlooking the slopes, indoor sauna, fully equipped chef’s kitchen (best stocked I’ve ever been to with truly excellent kitchenware), amazing entertainment areas, and plush comfortable beds capable of hosting multiple families. It had so many thoughtful touches that made it really feel like it was meant to be lived in and enjoyed, not simply a place to stay. Only complaint would be to fix the door closest to the hot tub - it was very cold running to and from the far door and the hot tub. A minor inconvenience in an otherwise unforgettable stay.
Multiple light bulbs are out and should be replaced.
The queen size bunk beds are a hazard and unstable. The safety rails haven't been installed so they are unsafe for kids. There is no bracing or stabilization so the beds shake wildly with the slightest movement. They are cheap imports that must have been purchased online, there is no way any store could sell them.
House was fine otherwise.

Hi Michael! Apologies for the light bulbs being out, we have since replaced. We would've been happy to stop by during your stay to do so, if you let us know. Regarding the bunk beds, they have been anchored to the walls and we have bumpers available for a safety rail. Hope that you have enjoyed your travels since and will continue to in the future!
This beautiful house is nestled in a very quiet, scenic area, right at the base of Milly Lift. We wanted a ski in/ski out and it was literally less than 50 steps to where you would put your skis on and go. Accommodations were just as we expected and that is always very much appreciated. The kitchen was a favorite because it was absolutely stocked with everything we could imagine or hope for, the best kitchen we have ever had. The hot tub was wonderful and the sauna was a huge hit! The gas fireplace starter was super helpful and the ample stock of firewood in the garage was much appreciated. We had 10 adults and two babies and when we got there we realized very quickly that we were in need of a couple items for the babies that we hadn’t planned on. We texted Carole the property manager and her family/staff and were immediately taken care of. No matter what it was that we were in need of or had a question about the response was immediate and the help was quick and efficient. The only thing that we would say, for the future, is to put signs on the garage door alluding to how and where to park. It is in the book but often times we don’t look at the book until several days later.

Hi Margaret! Love to hear it was the best kitchen you've ever had and the hot tub and sauna were a hit! I will let the team know how appreciated their help was, and look into parking signage. Thanks for sharing, looking forward to next time!
We were a group of 10 (2 families) who stayed for 6 days in mid-December 2021. The house is beautiful, has everything you might want or need and then some - with a few caveats. While it is *technically* a ski in-ski out, the Milly Express lift which is near the house was not running so it was more of a ski out and hike back, up a large mountain. The youngest in our groups could not do this without adults carrying them, which when you have skis poles, ski boots, up a VERY steep incline, is near impossible. We made the best of it and enjoyed the house with the views and all the snow!
There were at least a dozen lights out across the house including half the primary bathroom vanity, the sauna (it's pitch black without a light!), and living spaces.
The kitchen is outfitted with almost everything (ALL the oils, spices, teas, pantry staples, pots and pans, dishes, etc.) except the crock pot lid! Also beware the toaster because it will burn everything and will only stop if you unplug it. Fire hazard for sure!
Lastly, the neighborhood requires 4WD or AWD to access it, so if you rent a car or hire a driver, make sure they're equipped to get up the mountain!
Ultimately, none of us wanted to leave and were so glad we stayed where we did. It was an awesome experience and we'd recommend it to anyone.

Hi Courtney, thanks for your review! We're glad you overall enjoyed your stay and the home. Thank you for letting us know of the light bulbs, missing crock pot lid, and toaster. We would have been more than happy to replace all of these items during your stay if you had let us know at that time! The toaster has been upgraded, light bulbs replaced, and crock pot re-lidded.
Thanks again for staying with us!

Loved the house, location and staff. We missed the gas starter in the fireplace that was there last time. We had to ask to have the hot tub serviced and it was still dirty. A pin is missing from the grill lid. Liked that a spare gas tank was on site for the grill. Dry fire wood is still a problem.
