Summary: The host was exceptionally awesome with making sure my stay was wonderful. When I needed help there made sure I got what I needed. The house was beautiful inside, beds very comfortable, laundry room was awesome to have use so that I was able to return home with clean clothes. Kitchen area had more than what I needed. Parking was no problem. And last but not least the view of the mountains was absolutely amazing, even had a preview of the winter with overnight snow squalls. Also available but Not used by me due to health concerns were the outside hot-tub and an inside hot-tub in the master bath along with a great shower with a sitting corner for those who are fragile standing or wanting to sit for other reasons. Outdoor patio’s and chairs were plentiful and faced the wonderful mountain vistas. Absolutely loved this vacation home stay. Definitely recommended!
