It was a great space, very clean. We loved the winery across the road. Great location and we really appreciated the short notice acceptance of us as guests.
The house was perfect. Just as show in the pictures, the house was very clean and close to so many ski properties and the winery. The hosts even left hot chocolate for us. We loved every second. Will be back for sure.
Everything we hoped for and more! Kids all enjoyed the stay. Location was great for us to ski sugar mountain and explore the area. We look forward to next time! Thank you for everything!
