Great location just minutes away from Breckenridge. Very private. Home was generally in good shape with the exception of what seemed like poor water pressure. Had to call for maintenance help with a stuck water valve in bathroom, but response was excellent. Overall very pleased.

The property was nice, clean and had a good view. Easy walking trail very close was great and could hear blue river the entire hike. The hot tub was used every night by someone in our group of 7 and really enjoyed having that. I didn’t measure beds but I think there are two king and one of them if a queen. My only complaint is that the garage smelled terrible due to the trash can. I sprayed it with febreeze and that helped and property manager said they would get this taken care of. Overall great stay away from town but a quick drive when you want to go into town.

Good location with a nice view. Away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to get into town easily. Check-in process was easy. Plenty of space for our group of 4 adults and 2 kids. Enjoyed the hot tub, and appreciated that there were snow shoes on-site that we could use.

Cool cabin was in a great location, the cabin was was not properly stocked for my group. There was not enough towels for everyone. The beds were equipped with only 1 pillow with pillow cases that did not fit the pillows. There was a terrible odor in the basement/ garage. Property manager had an electrician working in the kitchen when we checked in at our checkin time.
4.5
We had a good stay. We liked the location of the property. Kitchen utensils such as measuring cups and measuring spoons need to be replaced as there were only a few in the house. A mixer would also be nice as we fixed all our meals at the house. The property was clean. It suited our needs well.

It was a decent place centrally located to most attractions. It was outdated. There was a very musty damp smell in the lower level which I inquired about prior to making my reservation, and I was told this issue was corrected. The price was high for what you got.

Very comfortable home and great location
Perfect house for our family of 5 adults +2 year old. House was clean and comfortable. Enjoyed the fireplace, hot tub and relaxing living area. We were able to go sledding down the drive and road out front (note that there are 3 sleds and 2 snow shoes in the garage which were an added bonus). Only downside was the garage is small so we had a tough time getting a suburban in the garage which was necessary as we had snow every day. In addition, the kitchen supplies need to be upgraded. Overall we loved our stay at the house and in Breckenridge.

Great Experience, had everything we needed for two families. Christmas decorations were a nice touch. We got two feet of snow while we were there, the snow plow cleaning the driveway was an added bonus. Easy ride into Breckenridge. We love just hanging out at the house after skiing.

Cabin was very roomy for group of 8. Beds were comfortable and plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Management company was very responsive. Coffee machine was not working and they brought out a brand new one and made sure it worked before leaving. There is a large fire pit area so you can enjoy a fire while in the hot tub. Close to both Alma and Breck for shopping and eating out.

We stayed for the better part of a week at the Cook Family Lodge with 10 family members and found it to be comfortable, and attractive in a quiet, very nicely located neighborhood a few miles outside touristy
Breckinridge. There was a delightful,
wooded walking trail above the blue river just up the street. Breckinridge offered quite a few activities for the children in our group, and there was a range of hiking
trails nearby. The only reason we give this property a four star rating is a hot tub that wasn’t working, almost no glassware, a
broken curtain system in the master
bedroom, detached kitchen faucet, non-functioning burner on the stove and a bed in the basement that was uncomfortable.. However, Breckenridge Property managers
were excellent and promptly sent out repair people for the faucet, hot tub and stove,Unfortunaly neither stove nor hot tub could be repaired during our stay, but
they very generously granted us a refund. They were so responsive, I believe all will be fixed for future visitors.

The place is good for 2 families(10 adults) to stay comfortably. Location wise it is good for the north colorado visits. A little better cleaning is required for the kitchen/dining area. We found it sticky where ever we touched it. The hot water flow is not good for 2 families visit. It gets cold fast. When you come back from a day trip and everyone tries to get fresh, you have to wait for hours after the initial round of people taking bath to get back hot water.
The hot tub jets were not working. Only some main jets were working, but not the one where you sit and relax.

This property is in a great area with a beautiful view. It is close enough to the Breckenridge ski resort (short drive), but also only a 40 min ride to A-Basin and Copper Mountain. It sleeps 10 but keep in mind that 2 of the beds are twin beds, so if you have larger kids or adults, consider that. It has a cozy atmosphere and great layout for gathering and the kitchen is perfect for entertaining while you cook. The hot tub was a plus after a long day of skiing. There were lots of fun games to play, a nice TV over the fireplace, and a TV in the master bedroom. Full cable and the wifi worked well too. It was awesome having the BBQ grill for cooking. The few things I would recommend: add a few kitchen items like a colander for noodles, and a few extra cooking utensils other than knives such as spatulas and tongs and that is being a little picky. If you want to pack lunches for skiing or hiking, make sure you bring your own Aluminum foil, sandwich bags, and other paper products you may need. (there were plenty of paper towels.). There were non of these in the kitchen. Plenty of nice towels for the shower as well as the hot tub. The property was clean, but some of the non stick pans could also be replaced. All that said, we would stay there again in a heartbeat! It is perfect for a large family or a group gathering. The property manager was also incredibly prompt in communication, and we had no issues checking in or out. Which makes that even nicer.

We had a wonderful time! Had a little friend reunion during the pandemic so we wanted a place we would enjoy hanging out in. Hot tub was wonderful - although I think the chlorine level is too high because our suits were bleached and some of us had skin irritation. But it was such a lovely place, just a short drive to Breckenridge proper. It was clean and the kitchen was stocked so we could have family dinners. We loved it!

Summer Jeep trip
Overall the property was nice and as advertised. Biggest issue we had was it looked as if it hadn't been dusted in months and basically all of the dishes were put away dirty, rinsed off at best. Beyond that, plenty of parking for a truck and trailer and 3 Jeeps.
