This was a nice property but could use some improvements. There were some hairs on the bathroom counter upon arrival and the toilet paper holder was broken. It also needs some cosmetic updates. Amazing location! We were able to walk right onto the ski slopes.

Sadly disappointed

When first viewing property, was led to believe the unit was level with parking lot. Not true--two flights of stairs for dragging luggage to unit and back out again when leaving. Several things in the unit did not work, a list was left for housekeeping to deal.

Nice place but....

The condo was absolutely beautiful with an amazing view and was easy to find up on top of the mountain. The problem we had is when we turned on the water in both of the showers bugs came out. I reached out to Vacasa who finally sent me a message 12 days (yes days) after my initial inquiry. VERY disappointed with the management company.

Incredible location

Beautiful property that was well furnished. We walked to the slope each day through a short trail through the woods. The kitchen was outfitted well but needed some more supplies like salt and pepper, plastic wrap, and a few extra trash bags.

Beautiful views!!!

This property had beautiful views from the porch! The layout was perfect for my family of 4, too! We had a few issues though...the light over the shower did not work, some of the dishes in the cupboards were dirty, we found pillows without any pillowcases, and we could not find the building trash location. We only stayed one night, so it wasn't too big of a deal. The views and layout were perfect, though! We had a good trip.

Definitely overpriced

Location is great, condo is as pictured with the exception of couple of moldy spots in the shower. 2 out of the 3 nights it was extremely windy outside and there are huge gaps in sliding glass doors, it was cold and so loud! The wind was just howling. I made a video of just how loud it was. Very hard to sleep for light sleepers like me. Fireplace did not work. We reached out to management & they did agree to help, however it was hard to coordinate as we were out most of the day. To think that we paid $700 a night with all the fees for 2 sleepless nights is sad. I ended up napping at our friends cabin.

Lovely condo

This condo is beautiful! It is at the top of the mountain, at 5200 ft. You will need 4wd to get to it when roads ice. During rainstorm, water seeps in the sliding doors and on to the wooden floors. We spent all day wiping up. Also, the pilot light in the fireplace won’t stay lit, if windy outside. Appliances are noisy. Beds are cozy. Jet tub is nice at the end of the day. We enjoyed our stay!
