Great stay

Property was clean. Recommend bringing your own blankets and pot/pans if plan on cooking. It was a nice stay and everyone had plenty of room. Had no problem with anything. Nice view of Alto Lake & mountains.

Last-Minute trip

We booked this on a Sunday and arrived on Wednesday. We had 6 kids ranging from 6-15 with us, and two couples. This house was perfect! We loved the separate levels. Each balcony had something different and we rotated, enjoying each. Views were absolutely beautiful! The two couples enjoyed meals on the top balcony.

One hiccup!

Everything was great, the only problem we had it took us about 30-40 min to get into the house. The entry code was not correct, took us a long time to finally get ahold of someone (the 24/7 call line is not a 24/7 call line) when we finally got a hold of someone in the maintenance department it was all up hill from there. House was very pleasant rooms were comfy over all stay was nice. The deer is was made it an awesome experience, if you like to fish I recommend going to eagle creek for trout and Alto lake for catfish.

overall a wonderful house for a larger family

1. got incorrect wifi password from condotel. in couple of hours found right password in renters' book. 2. tv service was abysmal. no service for extended periods almost every day. 3. door knob on exterior door on the bottom level is frozen/broken. makes this level a semi fire trap. needs to be fixed. 4. dirty carpet on first level of stairs needs to be cleaned/replaced 5. handrails were quite dirty

Relaxing and enjoyable, property was clean and had everything to entertain our teenagers!

Property was everything we expected. Beautiful views and amazing amenities. It allowed adult time and self entertainment for our teenagers. The three level property allows privacy to both kids and parents. Will definitely rent this property again!
