The house was very clean. Communication with the host was super easy the whole time. It was conveniently located next to a dog friendly beach, good restaurants, and a grocery store.

Great Little Getaway

This cabin is lovely if you're using it as a home base to ski, explore, etc...Super clean, all the little things you usually wish you had at a vacation rental (dishes, bowls, cookware, etc....).I would recommend staying here if you are 10 people or less. bathroom situation is a bit cramped, but other than that, this is an outstanding cabin. I'd imagine it's even better in the summer!It's super clean and well maintained. Especially considering they allow doggos.Well worth the price and we didn't have any major issues worth mentioning.
