We made a last-minute booking for our track team due to a lack of hotel rooms, and we couldn't have made a better choice. There was plenty of room for our group. The kids loved the huge game room and places to hang out. It was a nice, quiet setting that was a perfect fit for what we needed. Everything was clean and comfortable. The owners did a great job communicating any issues and expectations. Overall, it was a great experience!
Exceptional communication from James. Everything was clean, tidy, and clearly labeled. The downstairs game room was fantastic and well furnished. Only small downside is a smaller number of bathrooms.
The stay was great! James was very responsive when we contacted him and the property is as advertised!

Huge house for a big group and lots to do so it does not feel crowded. The people in our group especially liked the game room downstairs and the hot tub.
We enjoyed a nice weekend with a group of 17 adults. The property was clean. The property manager was nice and very responsive. The game room had many options for all age groups.
We had an amazing time at this beautiful home! The acreage made it feel nice and private, and we had a great view of elk passing through the property. We went snowshoeing at The Gold Creek Trail, and were able to borrow snowshoes from the house which was great. Everything was well stocked and clean.

I am so happy that you had a great time and put those snowshoes to some good use!! See you next time!
The property was great. Everything looked exactly like the listing. It was isolated, quiet, and huge. There were plenty of high quality games (darts, pool, air hocky) and a great sound system in the basement. Outside there were hammocks, a hot tub, basketball hoop, cornhole, and a grill. There was nothing this place didnt have.The house is a short drive (10 minutes) from stores, fast food, and gas stations so there is no problem if you forget to bring something.It is the perfect place for a weekend getaway.
House great , communication with owner great .. maintenance person shows up early am don’t announce her self when we said hi just ignored us. Contacted owner said miscommunication she should not be there at that time. Took her 30-40 minutes to get in garage where work was being done!! Tried to lower temp on thermostat to 71 but someone else had remote control of it and raised it to 76 for a couple of minutes. Would not allow anything lower than 73 , no fans in place.

Apologies for the issues with the maintenance person working on the other building, but was a one-off as she's only been to the adjacent building 3 times.
As for the temperature, we don't touch it during guest stays, so unsure what happened. It should be adjustable, and I'll make system adjustments to make sure it doesn't happen again.
There are some fans in the house, including ceiling fans in the upstairs bedrooms, but perhaps they got moved around and not obvious. I'll make sure that they're more clear and buy extras as well.
In the future, feel free to reach out anytime. I'm here to solve any problems. Cheers!
