Whitefish Wedding
We were in town to celebrate a friends wedding. The cabin was walking distance to the rehearsal dinner, gorgeous views, a small market, restaurant and hiking. It was exactly what we were looking for during our stay. Adorable cabin!

Summer week
Great location but definitely not the most comfortable place we've stayed. Furniture is all very uncomfortable including the small chairs on the front porch. Kitchen also needs better equipment - pans were terrible and no wine corkscrew.

Summer at whitefish
Beautiful cabin, neat , well kept and well equipped. We had a really good stay at the cabin. It would have been great if there was more privacy , especially at the back patio.

Vacay Properties is one of the most responsive organizations I have experienced in many years of travel. This property was honestly represented, although there were a few hiccups (mostly typical rental property issues), I am confident this property will continue to represent well in the near future.

Great Ski in Ski out cabin
What we liked: super easy check in, dishes, towels, shampoo and body wash provided, smart tv, private hot tub with access from the bedroom, very clean! Was super close to chair 3- just a 100ft walk to the hill and less than 50 yard ski to the lift. Also very short walk to buy lift tickets, beirstube bar etc. Was plenty big for 2 adults and maybe a couple kids but would not to share with anymore adults. What we didn't like: The cabin was difficult to keep warm when it was below 0. There was a very cold draft coming from the floor in front of the sink. When it warmed up outside the last two days this wasn't so bad. There was construction of a new property like 5 feet away from the cabin. (Construction sounds weren't too bad as they didn't start until 8 and we're done by 5ish). The couch is awful! I read other reviews that it was uncomfortable but that is an understatement. It felt like it was going to fall apart everytime we sat down and had no cushion. Overall we did enjoy the property and our stay!

Perfect ski chalet!
Pictured well! Perfect location for ski chalet, right next to lift! Property managers were patient with me after not locating my checkin details in my email— responded quickly, even at late hour. And responded well to fireplace lighting problem, leaving us with cozy fireplace. Looking forward to staying here again soon!

Overall happy with the property and our stay. Hot tub didn't work if we had the cover all the way off, sounds like management was aware. New building going up behind is very close and will leave no privacy in future. Would stay there again

Beautiful Views
While it may seem out of the way to stay at the ski resort during the summer months, you would miss out on the spectacular views from this height advantage and the short drive to town is rewarded with some of the most amazing views! Chalet was cute, well furnished, and perfect for our girls trip.

Wonderful, cozy cabin with great access to ski slope.
We loved our stay in the cabin. Warm fireplace, private enough hot tub, and just the right size for three adults. Well equipped kitchen allowed us to eat all of our meals at home.Super easy to walk across small parking area to ski to the lift. The staff at the rental agency were always available and helpful with travel advice.

We loved the location. Walk across the street to ski down to chair 3. Ticket office is a very short walk. The cabin has kitchen, its own hot tub, washer/dryer, and smart TV. It was very clean and comfortable for our family of 4.

Cute Cabin with a 5 Star location.
This was our first visit to Whitefish so it took us a couple days to figure out the location of slopes/chairs etc. Once we figured out how to access the slopes from across the cabin, logistics were easier. The Cabin was the perfect size for our family of 4. Kids enjoyed having their own space upstairs with tv and separate bathroom. It was nice to have a washer and dryer in the house and we all enjoyed the private hot tub! The only thing that could improve is the noisiness of the upstairs twin beds. They weren't real sturdy. My kids toss and turn at night and every movement they made was a squeak of the bed that echoed into the bedroom on main level. Overall, we loved our visit and the cabin.

Cozy cabin for a ski trip getaway!
We stayed at the cabin with our two young boys and absolutely loved our time spent there! The location was amazing, decor so hip and cool, the perfect amount of space for the 4 of us and overall really comfortable! Loved having a fireplace and washer/dryer. We skied everyday and appreciated how easy it was to get on the mountain from our front doorstep. Such a dream trip for us and now we’re in love with Whitefish!
