Agua y secadora de ropa

Todo bien, ubicación, amenidades, camas, pero el detalle que sólo se puede meter a bañar una persona a la vez cuando es una casa grande, éramos 14 y tuvimos que hacer turnos. Y el que no se pueda usar la secadora de ropa es algo que pensábamos si se podía usar y después de un día de esquiar algo llega húmedo.

Clean and accommodating

Property is clean, plenty of parking, and plenty of extra blankets. The very large mud room was a nice bonus for storing wet snow gear. Had to wash the dishes as the previous renters did do a good job on them. Minor issue with Jacuzzi circuit breaker popping when you turn on jets while heater is on. All and All the place was very accommodating and we had a great time.
