Very good

The cabin is nice and well provisioned, with a well stocked kitchen. It is a little bit dated in places, specifically the downstairs bathroom, the kitchen counters and cabinets, and we ran out of hot water one evening when we used both showers at the same time, but overall it was a very nice stay, and the location is great.
Great place close to everything we wanted, plenty of space, pretty much everything we needed to cook in the kitchen. For the most part everything in great working condition. Everything was clean and ready when we arrived.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Listing accuracy
Overall the property is well-located and has plenty of space for a family. The hot tub was a highlight for the kids. My rational for the rating is based on the worn, dated property. For such a premium (we paid 1,000/night) I would expect nice finishes and premium amenities. Instead the property had loose floor boards, chipped walls, dirty/stained carpets and is very outdated.
Hot tub was fantastic. Perfect location. Had all the cooking and cleaning items we needed. Kids loved it!! Couldnt figure out the gas for the fireplace. Games were in a cabinet but just thrown in the cabinet and missing most of the pieces to actually play. Everything else was fantastic. We plan to rent again in the winter.

Cabin is old and needs upgrade
The checkin process is little complicated, they send you access code after you ask for it and 15 before check in time at 3.45 pm, hot water was not coming, on enquiry they mentioned that it comes only between 9 am to 5 pm, which was on no use as we had to leave before that and come after that from ski, every thing from closer to bathroom drawers are very old.

Response from VrboOwner on 6 Jan, 2025
Thank you for the feedback. Door codes are automatically sent 15 minutes prior to check in time. There is no need to ask for it. The auto message received when inquiring about hot water was that our office ours are 9 to 5 and when we will respond, nothing to do with when the home has hot water, which is always and is working. We also provide an after hours emergency number in that message. It seems this was misunderstood completely unfortunately.
