The home had a lovely cottage, cozy rustic vibe. It was immaculately clean and a great location. It felt like coming home each day as we returned from the slopes. We loved the outdoor fire pit and the views from that area. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Beds were super comfy. I would definitely rent again.
