Location, location, location! This was the best ski-in, ski-out condo we have ever rented (and we've been renting them for the past ten years). Location is perfect - right on Peak 8 - no skiing down any separate "condo" trails, taking smaller lifts, or hiking/poling a bit reach the main slope. You are right there, making it so easy to be among the first on the slopes each day! Hot tub experience, watching others come down during last run of the day, was amazing, and was not crowded the way I had expected. Condo itself was modern, cozy and clean, with lotsa extras (games, puzzles, movies, kitchen stocked with staples so you don't have to go buy everything). Comfortable couches and beds, and even a gas grill on a covered porch for year-round grilling (which we did!) My kids LOVED being able to ski directly home for lunch/drink/bathroom break, then go back on the slopes immediately - much quicker (and cheaper!) than they could ever do in the lodge. And the owner is one of the nicest, caring and most responsive owners I have dealt with. I can't say enough about this place, or recommend it any more highly - I am so glad we stayed here! This place made for a great and memorable graduation gift for my son.
