Note regarding renting during ski season - the Apartment sits above the ski shop of Nordic Center. The Nordic center is only open when there is enough snow to ski. However, when busy, on snowy winter weekends, it can produce some noise between 9 am and 5 pm. The Nordic Center has very little traffic during the week. 2-3 times during the winter the Center hosts a night event or race; please inquire about those dates.
