Great location older ski chalet
Overall met our needs. Happy surprise to have three bedrooms but one has totally open upper ceilings so room noise level is high. Hot tub was nice and location is great. Kitchen could use more mixing bowels and cook wear but overall met our needs. Needs updating and TLC but overall good for family with dogs:)

Family get away
Loved the rustic, homey warmth of the property. We were here for a wedding at the resort but wanted family time in a quieter setting. Convenient location. Beautiful scenery. We had a great time.

Property Well Past Prime - Old, Tired, and in Need of a Facelift
This location and home SEEMED ideal… Thank goodness, the bathroom toilets, and floors were clean, even if EXTREMELY worn and outdated. The floors in the main living space and bedrooms were vacuumed, and the refrigerator and hot tub were also very clean…but that is the short list of positives. This entire house needs, at the very least, a DEEP CLEAN and more likely, an entire overhaul. Negatives: Used coffee grounds left in the coffee maker, tea kettle very greasy, counters and table needed unwiped, cabinets - old and sticky. Both propane tanks for the grill were empty. We called Vacasa as soon as we arrived (4:00 pm) to get new propane tanks hoping to grill steaks that night. Although we were told someone would call & replace the tanks soon, nothing. Living room: condition of the furniture was suspect, because everything was so old - it made you wonder if the sofas were clean enough to sit or lay on. The area rug required a deep clean at the very least...or may just need to be replaced. The entry area would have benefitted from some hooks for coats, backpacks, hiking poles, water bottles, etc. -- as a result, our gear just ended up in a heap on the floor. Bathrooms vents were disgustingly dirty -- were so filled with dust that we cleaned them ourselves! Bedroom: cheap mattresses, pillows, and bedding - we made sure not to walk barefoot since ALL carpets are completely stained. We were also asked to drive our garbage into town at end of stay? Vacasa (more to say)

Lovely stay
We enjoyed our stay very much. It was close to several excellent restaurants and activities. We would make a couple suggestions. One being offering outside seating on the deck to enjoy an evening cocktail. The other would be a hair dryer. We could not find one. Perhaps it was stored somewhere else we didn’t look. All in all we enjoyed your home very much.

Nice place but needs a little work
Toilets didn’t work the best. The stove was really dirty but the hot tub was nice and clean. The beds old and noisy if you moved in them. The fireplace in the bedroom didn’t work and the listing needs to be updated to say gas fireplace only. A boot dryer would be a nice addition for winter activities.

Communication
House was lovely but it was a little frustrating not having a local office & dealing with an 800 #. But once property manager contacted us personally it was easier.

Few hiccups - so so property, good location
The ease of communication with property mgmt company was horrible. We had an issue with lighting the fireplace which is the initial source of heat. I called the 800# on the site they weren’t helpful at all. Someone local from the property mgmt company for this area eventually got in touch with me directly and handled the issue. This person was awesome and kept on touch with me my entire stay. Allowed me to stay for a later checkout and compensated me for the issue. There’s no wifi service so if your cellular service isn’t available here you will have a problem. Not happy with the fact that we had to literally drive our garbage to a dump 2 miles away we’re from out of state and had a rental.
