Three sisters and two sisters in law spent a lovely weekend together in this beautiful home. We relaxed on the porch, lounged in the living room, and spent hours laughing and catching up. The quick walk to town made coffee runs easy and the shops and restaurants were define. Thank you thank you thank you < 3

Wonderful location! The house has everything you could need and is very nice. Third floor accommodations are a little tricky for older guests -- no bathroom and sloping ceilings.

The house was the perfect fit for our objectives, it was large enough for our family and friends and close to downtown and the slopes. The hosts were accommodating and easy to work with.

We loved spending a week in the house. It is walking distance from main street, on a sweet little street. It was the first trip with our 5 month old and we found the house to be very clean and safe for our baby. The kitchen is gorgeous and we appreciated the grill, back deck, front porch and screened in breakfast nook. The piano was a highlight as well. Tracy was very helpful and kind and we hope to return next year!

Very nice place. Be careful not to pull too far forward in the driveway -- we got a message shaming us about this (we didn't even realized we'd pulled beyond the gravel into the grass the dark). Made us wonder who was watching us. Uppermost bedroom was tiny and challenging for an adult because you can't stand upright entering the room. At least a couple of the beds were not terribly comfortable for adults. The decor is lovely, and the location is outstanding. Overall very good experience.
