It is a cute Victorian cottage, on a quiet street in the small village of Twin Lakes. The kitchen and bathroom have been remodeled and are modern. The kitchen is well equipped, although the pans are scratched Teflon. (This is often the case in mountain rentals.) The living room sofa and recliners were quite comfortable. The front porch is pleasant for sitting and drinking coffee in the sun, and there is a pleasant patio in back. The location is excellent. There are lovely hiking trails within a few miles of Twin Lakes. The beds are unusually high and very firm.
The furnace did not heat properly - The kitchen and utility room would be warm and the living room and master bedroom cold, even when following the note on the bedroom closet which said to leave the closet door open. We found that the heating vent on the ceiling of the bedroom was closed, but could not open it without a ladder. This was not a major problem, as it was not that cold at night, we just turned up the heat and left the bedroom door open. Of course, you could also build a fire in the wood stove. There were a few things that we found odd, besides putting a note on the closet door rather than fixing the heating vent. There were clothes in the closet - presumably this is a seasonal rental, but normally those would be removed before renting out. Also, we were asked to haul our trash to the community dumpster - which I thought an odd request, since we had paid a considerable cleaning fee when we rented.
Twin Lakes is such a beautiful place that these annoyances are relatively minor, and we would recommend this cottage.
