We came to Vail with 7 adults and one infant and had a great time in this house! The hot tub with the view of the mountains was incredible. The host sweetly supplied a pack and play crib for our stay. Beautiful, clean, comfortable, with a great view of the village and mountains. Perfect location for all activities!

Perfect Stay in Vail – Clean, Comfortable, and Memorable!

We had a fantastic stay at this Vail property! The house was beautifully maintained, very clean, and provided everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable trip. The attention to detail and cozy atmosphere made it feel like a true home away from home. The location was also ideal, allowing us to explore the best of Vail with ease. We wouldn’t hesitate to book this property again for our next visit. Highly recommended!

Great location very clean. The blinds did not work but we were able to figure that out. They needed to be recharged. The host offered to help as well but we navigated that ourselves. Overall beautiful place. Feedback: Would be helpful to have screens on the windows to deter bugs as there is no AC. Overall great place

Family Ski Trip

We were disappointed that the sauna was out of order. That was one of the main reason we choose that location.Also we noticed interior camera mounted in the kitchen and other living scapes , which made us uneasy.Also, no shuttle service to the ski areas.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We truly value your insights and appreciate your perspective. I would like to clarify that the sauna was not advertised as an amenity available for guest use, and we apologize for any misunderstanding this may have caused. Additionally, as the home is situated in an private community, shuttle services are not provided.  Regarding your concern about the presence of cameras, I assure you that there are no cameras inside the house. It’s possible that the motion sensors may have led to some confusion. We look forward to the next opportunity to host and impress you!

The host interaction was fine, however, the pictures and ski resort access is misleading. Pictures showed a sauna and part of the reason for booking the trip but guests were not allowed to use it. There is a sign in the sauna with instructions on how to use the sauna but when we reached out to inquire, they told us not an amenity for guests. There is no public bus access to the property so factor in at least a 20 ride to and from the ski resort. You could walk a ways down the road to the bus stop but very unrealistic and dangerous.

We want to clarify that the sauna is not listed as an amenity available for guest use, which is why it was not included in your reservation details. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused. Regarding the transportation options, while we do not have direct public bus access, we recommend planning for alternative transportation to ensure a smooth experience during your stay.
