Amazing view

The first thing you see when you walk in is the amazing view of the mountains through the gorgeous, walk-out glass doors. Once through those doors, you are on an elevated porch and in the middle of serenity. If you want a quiet home away from home, this unit is it.

Great view - overall a great stay!

The view is amazing! Overall clean, though a few stains on the carpet at the entry way. Beds were comfy, hot water great in the shower. The blinds in the master are not great (one is dark one is white - not great if you want a dark room). AC worked very well. Kitchen well stocked, laundry room very convenient.

Amazing views

The views are just perfection! The condo is spacious, and clean. The carpet did seem to need a good cleaning, but other than that it was really clean. The neighbors above played the tv really loud which made the evening not extremely relaxing. Overall it was a nice short stay with amazing views!

Pick another home

House has pet stains on the carpet.Internet does not work.Guest bathroom has strong urine smell and dirty toilet brush.No smart TVs in home and master bedroom TV is super small.No TV in guest bedroom.Master bed feels like you're laying on concrete and smells like urine.Master shower had mold and mildew in the grouts.You can smell the mildew when you open the shower door.Pots and pans are old and not non-stick.No kitchen amenities really,so make sure you're prepared.We literally had to buy cleaners,air fresheners and Febreeze due to weird smell.We left our trip early due to having no internet for work and conditions of the home.Some of the electrical outlets don't work.There are other condos in the same area that are way better.The mountain view is blocked by trees.Our family forfeited 2 nights of our 4 day trip because of the home.This place needs a lot of updating for the price!

Do not rent

The kitchen had everything you need. There’s a lot that needs improving, like the internet, the carpet that is stretched and tripped me twice, and outdoor furniture. Some general maintenance is required.

Great Stay.

The home was so nice. The view from the balcony was breathtaking. The home was located on the mountain and the drive up was beautiful. The jacuzzi tub was nice too. The neighborhood was quiet and while maintained. It snowed about 4 inches while we were there. The roads in the mountain were not bad at all. We will definitely be back.

poor communication regarding fireplace operation

This trip was a one-year anniversary trip. When I was searching for a romantic place to stay, having a fireplace and a jetted tub were very important to me. After we arrived, we looked for instructions on how to turn on the gas fireplace. There were none. There was a remote with an On-Off switch that did not function. So we opened up the bottom of the fireplace insert and found some manufacturer's instructions. The illustration on that card did not match the installation - everything was backwards. We called the help phone number provided and I was told someone would email me instructions within 5-10 minutes. I checked my email at least 30 min later and there was nothing in Inbox or Spam. So I called back. Spoke with someone different. I was told there was no such thing as emailed instructions, and that the local manager would be the only person who could help me. But....too bad.....they don't take calls after 6pm unless its an emergency. I was told someone would call or text first thing the next morning. Never happened. I got a call the evening of 10/17. Was told he would come by in the morning to get it to work, which he did. So we had my "essential" fireplace for one night. He told me he would have the local manager call me. Never happened. Other issues that need attention: light over stovetop not working, both lamps in 2nd bedroom not working. What appeared to be a camping lantern was left to use. One lamp in 1st bedrm has broken switch. I would like a call from someone.
