Thank you so much, Don! We're happy to hear that our home was a perfect fit for your family. It’s a wonderful spot for making memories, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!
I couldn't be happier with my stay here. From the check-in process, to the location, to the property itself, everything was perfect. I would absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat

The condo is spacious, clean and conveniently located. It was quiet since its mid September.
Thank you so much for the review, Isabel! We're delighted to hear that you had a comfortable stay; just what we hope for every guest. Thanks for choosing to stay with us, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!
Great condo, close to the slopes. More than enough room for the 4 of us. Separate bedrooms are key with older children! Our stay was short, we wished we had more time to take full advantage of everything the place had to offer!

Hey David, so glad to hear that our condo was a great fit for your family! Thanks for staying with us—we hope next time you’ll have more time to enjoy everything the place and the slopes have to offer!
Five days at a lovely condo in the foothills of Northstar. Exceptionally clean, looks just like the pictures. Short walk down to the slopes that would be shorter with more snow (all man-made snow to date but not bad for beginner/intermediate). Short walk down to the village. A great choice for a family of 3-4.

There was hair on the bedsheets and the mattresses and pillows were not comfortable.
This is ski in (sort of) and walk out. Lots of stairs and an uphill hike to the condo from village. Very clean. Master bed very comfortable - the twin beds were hard and squeaky. Bring laundry soap and and pens and paper you might need for games.

Thank you for your feedback, Alison! We're glad to hear that you found our condo very clean and comfortable. We appreciate your notes about the twin beds, stairs, and the uphill hike. We'll take your feedback into consideration and hope to welcome you back for another stay!
Overall enjoyed our stay. It was smaller than expected but cozy and clean. My only caution is the amount of stairs. Thankfully we are not elderly or have young children in strollers. It is listed as ski/out but you have to climb quite a few stairs and walk to the path which is near the shuttle stop. Doing that is the better option since the wait times for the shuttle to and from were 20 min or more. So I recommend this place to stay but keep these issues in mind.
This place is in a great location and very clean. Cozy fireplace.
We were disappointed with the kitchen. The dishwasher doesn’t work. The toaster is a fire hazard. It sparks and starts to burn toast immediately. There are bare minimum kitchen items. We had to use a measuring cup because there wasn’t a soup ladle.
We’ve rented about a dozen times in this condo area and we love the convenience of ski in/out. It’s easy access to the village as well. Just a few fixes and this one could be rated much higher. We liked the easy to use app that came with all of the instructions.
