Everything about this house was perfect for our family! We have 3 children born in 2020 and this house provided a space for all of them. There were 2 pack-and-plays, 2 booster seats, a high chair, a huge tub with a window in which they all bathed together, a great backyard for them to play and a central staircase that they could run their circuits around, as they do 😉 And for the hard-boarding adults, the hot tub was truly welcome! Thank you Sanjay and Bettina!! ##### Carolyn D. Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Rebecca H.

The hosts were lovely and greeted us with local salsa and other snacks. The house was spacious with room to spread out that was welcome. Plenty of outdoor space as well. The steps leading to upstairs bedroom would be a challenge for some to navigate (narrow and steep) so just a heads up on that but easily managed. The upstairs deck was a nice bonus for stargazing. The hot tub felt like a drawback showing age and wear. We ended up not using it. Overall, a great place with wonderful hosts. ##### Rebecca H.

His house manager Bettina was so sweet and easy to communicate if we needed anything or had questions! We got there earlier than anticipated and there was no issue getting into the property - Bettina soon met us with fresh fruit, a local magazine and flowers! The rooms and beds slept us all very comfortably. The kitchen had everything we needed. It's a quick and very easy drive up to the mountain (30 minutes). The only negative we had was the hot tub wasn't working properly and we couldn't get it to heat up hot enough to get in. BUT the scenery and the home itself were absolutely perfect ~ we will be back!

Sep 15, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in, communication #### Hospitality??? The size of the house was great. 5 couples, five bedrooms. Beds were comfortable. Clean and well stocked. Decent location for the activities planned. First issue encountered was access. This was the first property that required a tour by an assistant. Have always received a text/email day before or morning of with code for door or lock box. Had to estimate our time of arrival for the tour. One of the couples contacted property owner around 3pm to see about getting into house between 4-4:30. Three more couples showed up around 5pm with groceries. Mind you, we had been traveling 2500 miles by planes and cars for 14hrs. The assistant showed up after 5pm and proceeded to sit in her car. We had unloaded our luggage and groceries to the patio by the door and just wanted to get stuff in fridge. Finally someone had to go out to driveway and get her attention to let us into house. She came out of car complaining that we could only park in area that held four cars. We had carefully opened a gate and parked one vehicle on interior drive. 5 couples, 5 cars. We were then told we were not supposed to be there until 5:30pm, website states check in between 4-4:30. She then gathered all of us by door to instruct us on how to push buttons to open lock. We had to note code in our phones. Once entering the house she informed us she would be giving all of us a tour. We sent one couple on tour and the rest of us moved luggage to rooms and groceries to fridge, which she just turned up the temperature on. We all were polite, but declined to all take the tour. We asked about air conditioning. It was 84 outside and it felt like 95 inside. She said air was only upstairs, but had never had a complaint She said there were fans for downstairs. Found one ceiling fan in master, was afraid it might fall. There was one small window in kitchen and one in guest bed. One door had a screen that didn't work, so we chose to open doors and deal with flies and moths to try can cool downstairs after dark. Purchased fans at Walmart. Upstairs was fine. Received a condescending email from the owner stating we were too metropolitan to appreciate the assistants tour. So, rude city folk. This email with input only from his assistant. DON"T expect water in the morning. After one shower the taps run dry. Irrigation runs at 6am and it depletes the well. Will look for other property for future trips. ##### Mary M.

The house is not only beautiful but very comfortable and roomy. We were able to spread out and each have our own room. The upstairs living area and balcony were lovely. We loved the staircase and mosaic on the 2nd floor! The property has a beautiful view!!!! We enjoyed cooking and eating outside and having our coffee on the patio each morning. Will definately return!!!! ##### teresa c. Stayed 7 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eunice G.

It was about a 30 minute scenic drive to the ski resort. The house had plenty of space inside and outside and was nicely decorated. We enjoyed using the hot tub and the campfire outside for smores. We didn’t realize the owner wanted to meet and greet us in person upon arrival and had a hard time coordinating a time because we arrived late on the day of check-in and left to ski the next morning. The house is beautiful and we would go back and stay there again. There isn’t a lot to do in this neighborhood and the area seemed a little run down but the house itself is lovely. We had a nice dinner in town at the Love Apple and recommend this restaurant for local, organic food. ##### Eunice G. Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Grant C.

Great space and an easy drive to the mountain. ##### Grant C.
