Awesome. Other than wood falling.

It was nice. We loved our stay..

We were sitting outside and the wind was blowing and out of no where the wood above the table outside fell and hit my son on his back.

Not quite what we expected, but would love to stay again because the good out weighs the bad.

My door code did not work. I had to call the property manager to give us another code, was about a 15 minute process

Obviously the pool is never open, as I read the history in the guest book at the property. The Wi-Fi was non existent, after calling the property manager I was assured someone would troubleshoot this in the morning only to no have anyone reach out. We made due with the issues, but it would have been nice to enjoy all amenities listed.

Relaxing

The beautiful view.

The tv in our unit was very small & not good quality. One room didn’t have a tv & the other rooms tv was even smaller. For the price we paid I feel better tv would have been amazing, but other than that it was a wonderful stay.

for the price and issues we won’t be here again.

the inside was nice and clean.

for the price we were not even able to use the hot tub or the pool. the pool was slimy and had a film on the water. the hot tub was dirty and had chunks of hair floating in the water. we have a family of six and was only given 1 roll of paper towels and 2 small rolls of toilet paper and one trash bag. we had to spend more money for extra items we would have been compensated elsewhere. there was construction going on in the building and was not made aware of this at time of booking. we didn’t want to spend our time listing to construction. at least give clients that option.

when we arrived our code didn’t work on the door. office was closed but I texted and contacted booking and the property

the apartment was beautiful. it made us feel at home. the decorations and furniture was perfect.

we were unaware there was no elevator to get to the third floor. my mom that is in her 70’s had to climb four flights of stairs and she wasn’t use to that. made me worry about her. we felt the outside of the building needed some updating. paint the railing/trim of the walkway. maybe all towels for the pool area or in the apartment. didn’t know I needed to bring a towel and didn’t want to use my bath towel.

Very good

Easy to find and booking owner services very easily reached, helped immediately to get in when original door code did not work.

No internet though a storm had hit the area recently and this may have been the cause. Building itself v run down w some loud guests

Overall it was a great get away trip in a quiet area.

The unit was in a good location to take day trips. Close to town and the national forest. We had a daily visitor (bear) that came by to check all the car doors to verify they were locked. Was fun to watch.

Had a bit of trouble getting the key code prior to arrival. Tried calling the property manager and had to wait a short while to get the code. The drive up to the unit was a little difficult on winding narrow roads.

Very scary to get to the top to the ski view Resort itself

The condo itself was wonderful however there were some things that could add like grab bars in the bathroom, hooks on the back of the bathroom doors to hang robes or towels. The view was spectacular!

It would have been nice to know that there were so many stairs to get into the unit. The main complaint where the roads up nowhere and any of the literature does it tell how steep the roads are and how many sharp curves you have to make. When we finally arrived we could not access the condo because the key code to get in did not work I was given a second code for the lock and it did not work. We were finally given the maintenance code to get into our unit. We had a problem with the trapdoor to the Attic access being open I called the number and no one ever return my call I mean never which I thought was ridiculous!!
