We had a wonderful stay and would absolutely return. The home is beautiful, comfortable, and incredibly well equipped for a mountain getaway. The ski-in/ski-out access is fantastic, skiing straight down to the gondola made everything effortless, and waits were only a few minutes.
The hot tub was perfect after long days on the slopes, and the views are stunning. Inside, the beds were exceptionally cozy, with plenty of sleeping space (the bunk beds were a hit with the kids). The house is very well stocked with dishes, cookware, spices, and thoughtful extras like a full coffee and hot chocolate station.
We especially appreciated the ski storage, boot and glove dryers, easy garage access, and always-cleared snowy entry. Communication with the host was quick, helpful, and friendly.
Overall, a beautiful, well-cared-for home that made our trip easy, relaxing, and memorable. Highly recommend!
