Beautiful Views
Stayed for a relaxing bachelorette weekend. Weather didn't go as planned but we had a great time anyway. The house was clean and comfortable. The owner was very communicative and accommodating. Upon arriving, maintenance stopped by to make sure we were set and answer any questions. It is within a couple minutes of town and hot springs. The views were beautiful, even had about a dozen deer come up to the house. Definitely recommend.

Family snowboarding trip
The location was roughly 40 minutes from the ski area but allowed us to sleep in and still get to the slopes at a decent time. The house was very clean, easy to find, near a store and gas station and had the most beaitiful view. It was really perfect. There was enough room for all the kids (3 fourtee. Year old boys, a 4 year old and 5 month old) to sleep and play without being on top of each other and the hot tub made coming off the mountain enjoyable. While we didnt need it we did tale note that the site did have arm rails along the shower etc and was pretty handicap accessable. Every morning there was wildlife in the back. And the owner was very responsive.

I Rented This Place Solely for the Hot Tub, Which Was Unusable
The house itself is ok but understand it is in an actual neighborhood, not just "with neighbors close by" as the description leads me personally to believe. It is extremely outdated and we really struggled with the old thermostat, after literally an hour I was able to get it to kick the furnace on but I wasn't able to turn it back down when we were trying to leave. The refrigerator literally smelled like something died in it but was clean to my sight. The only reason that I rented this place was for the hot tub with that view. The day we arrived I sent a message to confirm that we could use it and the owner stated that "the last guests had a hard time and she probably should have let me know sooner that it wasn't working." I went out to investigate and was able to get the water to start heating up but the hot tub was so dirty the water was brown and had a film on top of it along with TONS of debris and the smell was pretty bad here too. We went in December so we didn't really spend a ton of time in the yard without the hot tub. Upon notifying the homeowner (that I paid EXTRA hazard and incidental insurance), all she really had to say was that she was sorry and had been sick. There was no offer of a refund for even my cleanings fees or anything. I have stayed at several personally owned vacation rentals and this was my first experience of a property being this far off from advertised. I have definitely learned my lesson to start calling people and asking if hot tubs work, or about amenities, etc. I am very upset about my stay at this place because the owner did NOTHING to try to make it right with me.

Nice view
We were frustrated during the check in process as it's impossible to get ahold of anyone. We were hoping to check in 30 minutes early because their check in time isn't until 4pm and we were coming in for a wedding at 4pm that day. An automated email says no early check ins and no one responded. We just needed to setup the children's bedding was all. Then when we got to the house late at night after the wedding there was no futon in the master which we were relying on for one of the kids. The house is very dated and musky but does have everything we needed for the most part and a gorgeous view. We left our daughters favorite stuffed animal and when we tried to contact them to see if they found it, again no response. All in all it was fine but not overly impressed.

Sweet, Cozy and Views for Days!
The house was exactly as it appeared online, spacious, clean, comfortable, with AMAZING views. Great location to downtown but tucked away enough to where you felt like you had privacy. Very quiet, peaceful surroundings. The hot tub was so wonderful and the house was stocked with everything we needed to cook at home and just relax. Highly recommend! The only negative we came across was that the mattress in the master bedroom was VERY stiff. We couldn't use it. There were plenty of other beds, so it wasn't a big deal, but that was a little disappointing because the master space was nice. I would absolutely rent this home again! :)

Disappointing
The hot tub and view as advertised were great. My friends and I found a number of unpleasant surprises during our stay. There were dead bugs in the windowsill and on the floor behind the couch. Sliding glass door was smudged. Towels were left in the washer wet. Dryer was also full of towels which were not put away. When we opened the oven to cook a meal we found a frying pan with grease in it and oven cleaner still left in the bottom of the oven. We couldn't get the remote to work for any of the TVs and there were no instructions.. One of the beds was comfortable, the others were not. Don't like to be a complainer, but wouldn't want others to have the experience we had. The home was NOT worth the price we paid.

It was just ok
This property was large and the views were amazing but it needs updating. The master bed was so uncomfortable (hard) that my fiancé and I slept on the couch the whole time. The sheets were clean but smelled a little musty, like they had been stored for a while. The kitchen didn’t have very many dishes so we were glad we brought paper plates and plastic cups. Our friends said the twin beds were comfy and we really enjoyed the hot tub. The stars were amazing at night. Overall the property was fine, but outdated and not fully stocked.

Description vs Reality
We've stayed here just recently in February 2019 and we were super disappointed upon arrival. First things first, this place is not secluded as the title states. There are neighbors on both sides and a very shady home across the street. Second, this is a double-wide home and not a "Mountain Meadows lodge" as described. Other negatives, the hot tub was dirty and unusable throughout the whole weekend even after we complained. The internet was down upon arrival but it was fixed by the cleaning person which is the POC for this property upon arrival. She was great and the saving grace to this whole weekend. The TVs depend on the internet and Google Chromecast for programming, there is no cable. The driveway and walkway were not shoveled. Last but NOT least, I hope my review sticks on VRBO because there were no reviews for this place on or before booking! There are positives, this is a very spacious place, close to downtown Buena Vista and the view from the backyard is no doubt, great. Bottom line, this not a bad place but renters beware, there's a big difference between the VRBO description and reality!!!
