The house itself was fine. Clean beds, and stocked kitchen. It was not ski in ski out as advertised. Very difficult for younger children to get to slopesThere were also mice in the house running through the kitchen and family room while we were eating dinner on 2 different occasions. The property manager Getaway Vacations applied a large unauthorized charge to our credit card after our visit. They refused to communicate about the charge. They were also unresponsive to concerns that we raised about the property. We definitely overpaid for the house. Not fun!

Large enough for six. The dirt road became a mud slosh slide drive, would never make it without 4 wheel drive. The walk to the slope is very difficult , so I would not consider the a ski in/out. Otherwise, it was a nice place to stay ,

Our family had a great visit. The lodge was roomy and perfect for our family of four. The walk wasn't too hard for our 4 and 7 year Olds. Loved it

The cleaning crew was still at the property 40 minutes after our 4:00 pm check in and the toilets were visibly dirty. The trails were indeed close (Eastern Passage and Home Stretch), however, getting through the woods to them with gear was difficult over a steep hill in deep snow. We ended up using parking passes and driving to lift areas as it was far easier. The positives were that the kitchen was well-equipped and the neighborhood was nice. The hot tub was a plus, although the jets did not work very well. We would probably stay in a larger, more modern space next time. The unit definitely needs some updating.

Great place to stay with our young kids, for a ski getaway. Our 5-8 year-old kids only complained about the hike through the snowy woods the first time. Once they realized that skiing was less than a minute away, they had no trouble. The house is a perfect ski lodge -- lots of beds, a nice kitchen, a hot tub, and a bunch of games.
The last 3/4 mile is not paved. Our minivan with road tires made it up when the snow was hard-packed and cold, but we needed our emergency chains when it was warmer and slushy.
