Our family really enjoyed our stay. The check in and check out was a breeze. This is a lovely home close to all the outdoor things we love to do in the area. Kitchen is very well stocked and there was plenty of space for everyone. We have spent many years (both summers and winters) vacationing here and we would rent this house again in a heartbeat.

4th of July Family get together

Our family spent the long holiday weekend at the property. The house is very large and easily accommodated our group of 9 adults. We appreciated the well stocked kitchen, hot tub, large deck and spacious outdoor areas as well as how clean and organized everything was. There were plenty of towels and bedding. We were disappointed to find the only air conditioning in the whole house was limited to the one window unit in the upstairs den. Luckily the weather was mild and we stayed comfortable with the ceiling and floor fans that were provided. We would definitely visit again.

Great Mountain Getaway

Loved the house- well stocked, spacious, quiet and perfect for adults and kids. Location is great- super convenient to skiing, sledding/tubbing, snow play as well as Arnold. We had a really nice stay and look forward to visiting again!

Great location, space, and amenities!

This home is conveniently located so we could quickly get to Bear Valley ski resort without having to battle the snow. The home is large and provides lots of room. Our teenagers had their own living area, which was fantastic. We even got to watch the Superbowl while soaking in the hot tub! Host responds quickly to inquiries; we had no problems and would definitely stay here again.

Once again we had a fantastic family time at the mountain cabin. It's not a cabin but a homey house in the woods. We try to go twice a year because our whole family loves it. You will too!

The home is nice for multiple families but we were disappointed by some key things you would expect from a VRBO home. First and most important, it was advertised as having air conditioning. It does not. It has one small unit in an upstairs family room. It was really hot when we stayed there and some family had to sleep downstairs on the couch. Not good when you have a two year old.I've never stayed at a VRBO that did not have garbage service. With three families and four small children, we had alot of garbage that we had to pack out. There was only one towel per person and a washing machine that did not work. No dish towels so alot of paper towels used.Flannel sheets and no top sheet on my bed. Problem getting 3 small children into community pool as it was listed under a different name. Host responsive to that problem. I hope the host takes this as constructive criticism and rectifies the issues as it could be a nice VRBO. We, however, won't be back.

This was our third trip to the amazing cabin (castle). It has every amenity that you might need. Big enough for families to have their own space, I just can't say enough about this getaway. Thanks so much Linda, see you next year!

Wonderful family stay near the snow

This is a second time we stayed at the property and it is perfectly located to be close to snow with kids without having to chain up every time. The development get ploughed well but you can catch times in the morning when you can sled in driveways. We go to bear valley for cross country ski and this is a perfect spot. House is well appointed and feels homey, not like a blank rental

Amazing Vacation

We had our end of summer family vacation here and it was probably the best one we've had so far. There was plenty of room for all the different personalities and time schedules. We enjoyed spending time in the amazing kitchen and back deck including the hot tub. Linda was a super host and made sure our stay was wonderful. We are hoping to go back and you can't go wrong with this amazing mountain getaway.
