Great family holiday
The home had plenty of space and all the amenities were well stocked. We enjoyed having a wood stove for warmth and ambiance, the extra family area which provided space for a few of us that had to work some of the time, and plenty of counter/dining space to make our holiday meal.
The location gave us great access to hiking and a couple days at Wolf Creek ski area. All together it was a fantastic experience.
A beautifully decorated mountain home: exactly what you'd want for ideal ski vacation lodging. Pros: Interior was cozy and welcoming. Everything we needed for preparing meals was available, including a grill. Plenty of space. Bar was awesome. Home was easy to locate. Quiet location and in walking distance from the river. Large tv in family room; tvs in all bedrooms. Two of the three beds were comfy. Loved the hot tub.Cons: Some damage from prior pet guests, but nothing that impacted the stay. While it was fairly clean, we did have some allergies to the pets, especially in bed. Could use some more attentive cleaning (ie, closets had items on the floors that didn't belong there, top of family room fridge was dirty, lots of hair under sofa, all drawers and cupboards throughout house had either dirt, crumbs, or dog hair in them, including in the kitchen). Rugs had been left in the wash machine by cleaning staff. Gaming system was missing, one of the sofa leg rests was stuck in the up position, and the mini fridge (wine fridge?) in the kitchen wouldn't turn on. We stayed in March when it was just warm enough to want to spend time outdoors, but outdoor areas needed cleaned and there were no tools for cleaning up the area (broom, rags, etc). We really liked this home, with a little TLC it would easily be 5 stars. However, we also have never stayed in a pet-friendly place and it might be exactly as expected for someone with pets!
