Quirky 70's style ski cabin.

Great for guys trip. Limited bathrooms, and not a ton of privacy, so maybe not great for multiple families. The place is full of character and very reasonably priced.

Awesome base camp for Monarch ski vacation

You can tell this cabin was built with skiing in mind. Can’t get closer to Monarch! The property is very quirky for sure but in a good way! Would absolutely stay here again if the opportunity comes up.

Great location and plenty of room. But what impressed me the most was the integrity of the team overseeing this property. I inadvertently left my wedding bands behind (they had gotten pushed out of sight) and I didn’t realize it until we were some hours away. I panicked but each person I spoke to was so reassuring. And sure enough the cleaning team found my jewelry and later I received instructions for how to handle the return delivery. I am so grateful!

Geno's Groovy Getaway is Great

We loved our stay at Geno's. The proximate location to Monarch Mountain is super convenient. The house itself was very charming and ideal for a group of our size (4 adults and 4 kids). The house's vibe matched perfectly for a skiing getaway. The only feedback we could think of was that it would be nice if there were some more chairs for the dining table. We assume there are fewer by design to avoid cramping the space, but having even some folding chairs tucked away would help when a larger group wants to gather around the table for a meal. Other than that, the place was fantastic. Thank you so much for helping to make our ski getaway a memorable one.

Bathroom situation off - We made it work

the listing does not show the second bathroom on the 2nd floor which is actually ONLY a sink and toilet, no shower. There are 4 bed area's on the 2nd floor, but in order to use the extra shower, it is located down stairs just outside the laundry room and the entrance to the Sauna. thankfully, we had 5 males and 1 female with her husband who stayed in the bedroom downstairs with a full bathroom outside their doorway. We made it work, but if you plan on taking a shower while in a bathroom, there is only 1 option for that. Other than that, it was 7 minutes from Monarch Mountain where we went skiing, kitchen was functional, but could use some updating along with pots and pans. Living area was fine and dining table area as well. We enjoyed the sauna every evening. Wood was provided for fire in or out, but it was a little warm during our visit so no indoor fire was needed.

Good house but misleading on bedrooms and bathrooms

Overall, we enjoyed our stay at this house. My only complaint is that it was advertised as a 4 bedroom and 2 bath house. One of the "bedrooms" was an open area upstairs, which clearly would not quality as a bedroom. For another bedroom, you had to walk though a separate bedroom to get to. Lastly, there was only one full bathroom. There was a half bathroom upstairs (without a shower) and a separate, stand- alone shower downstairs by the ski equipment area. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
