Really comfortable home
I thought this home just had a really nice warm and comfortable feeling from the moment we walked in. The kitchen is really cute and well stocked. The beds were comfy and there were plenty of extra blankets. I would happily come back again!

Close to skiing but not walking
Nice rooms with updated furniture. Only improvement would be handles on the bathroom vanities, better water pressure in the showers and floor molding at the entry to the living room and kitchen be thinner so you don't stub your feet. Nice big tv and appliances! Probably 4 blocks to ski hill.

Awesome and easy with last minute arrangements
Decided at the last minute to come up for a 3 days of skiing with my 2 sons. Booked on a Monday and arrived Tuesday. Check-in was super simple. Close to the hill so we could wake up in the morning, roll out of bed and hit the slopes. The house was clean and had everything we needed for a great trip. Kitchen applinces were close to new. Thank you so much

Perfect spot for Big Powderhorn skiing!
We had a fantastic 5 night stay at this lovely condo. Amanda was an incredibly accommodating hostess, communicating regularly and super responsive. Our family of 4 skied at Big Powderhorn for 3 days and really enjoyed the proximity of this place. Highly recommend for other families/travelers!
