Our stay was absolutely perfect. The home was beautiful, spotless, and very well stocked with everything we needed. We especially appreciated the hot tub and sauna, and loved how conveniently close it was to the ski hill and Burnett Dairy. We would definitely stay here again!

We have a wonderful stay! Beautiful located by the ski hill, pet friendly, and it had all the accommodations you could think of. It was beautifully decorated and super clean & cozy. The Sauna & Hot Tub were relaxing after a long day out in the cold! We would love to stay again if we come back to the area!

We loved the accommodations! This is the perfect house and location for a ski trip. Everything was thought of and easy to access and enjoy. From the well appointed kitchen to the relaxing hot tub and sauna, I can't really think of anything it is missing. The layout is ideal for four couples and a few extra kids (if required). The hiking trail a few steps away was also ideal. Being able to walk back from Spirit mountain to enjoy lunch, was also a nice bonus! Thanks for a great vacation!

Excellent Stay For A Weekend Winter Getaway

We had a group of 16 stay at RiverWest for a ski weekend at Spirit Mountain, renting the connected Northern Retreat and Northwoods units, and everything was fantastic. Both units were beautiful, spacious, and easily accommodated our entire group, with fully stocked kitchens (including an air fryer and two coffee machines), excellent hot tubs for relaxing after skiing, and four bathrooms in each unit which made getting ready easy. Communication for check-in and check-out was smooth and stress-free, and when we had a minor issue with the oven, Jinell responded quickly and was very helpful. There were plenty of clean towels, multiple pull-out beds (though some guests preferred the couches), and plenty of privacy for a large group. Overall, it was an excellent weekend, and we'll definitely be returning to RiverWest for future group gatherings in Duluth.
