Bed rooms were really cold, whole living room and kitchen were fine. No coffee in cabin, had to run to grocery store shortly after arriving. Driveway due to weather conditions was in poor conditions. Host was very supportive…

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad our team was able to support you during your stay. Winter weather can impact driveway conditions in the mountains, and we always recommend 4WD or AWD during snowy periods. We appreciate your comments and will continue working to ensure a comfortable experience for our guests.

We were blown away by the house when we first walked in. The kitchen and great room are big, open, inviting. So is the master. The gas fireplace with remote was perfect for cold nights. The hot tub was great also - super warm even when the outdoor temp was 3. The Weber propane grill worked great in the same temp, though the ignitor was snow covered, and we had to use a lighter to light the burners - be sure to bring a grill lighter.The host was very responsive and went out his way to insure we had a nice stay. There was also a complimentary bottle of red wine, which was amazing because we'd planned to have red wine the first night but forgot to pick any up. The house was very clean.We arrived shortly after and a day before large snowfalls. The driveway is steep and definitely requires 4wd or AWD with anything more than a few inches of snow. The host has cleared it prior to our arrival, but 9 inches the next day made 4wd required. The family didn't want to leave. Great stay.
