Snuggle up by the fireplace during family movie night or have a pool tournament in the well-equipped game room! When mealtime arrives, whip up a tasty dinner in the full kitchen or have a barbecue in the enclosed yard while sharing some local brews and watching the kids swing on the playset. The bedrooms are equally inviting with soft linens, thoughtful touches, and plenty of natural light. Not to mention the en suite bath offering spa-like rejuvenation after an adventure-filled day on the mountain.

A gaming system, children’s games, a high chair, baby gates, a provided Pack-N-Play, and a private washer/dryer round out the list of this home’s stellar perks.

We had a great time. House is prefect for bigger groups plenty of space and a back yard for the kids to play! We had an issue with the fireplace and we couldn’t get it working. Vacasa had someone there within the hour to fix it. Would definitely rent again!

The property is very well managed. Check in was as smooth as it can be. We were offered early check in although we didn't really need it. The master bedroom was very spacious. There is a top arch windows that is not curtained and could make the room very bright in the early morning. We had to improvised a bit to get it mostly blocked so that we don't get waken up at 5am. Cleaning was good. Lots of things to do to keep kids busy. The kitchen had a very comprehensive set of kitchenware for in unit cooking.
