This was a great property. We spent the week of Thanksgiving. The price was affordable, we had lots of room to invite family over to visit us. There was WiFi & cable, we were able to watch NFL & college football as a family & enjoy the holiday.The beds were comfortable & everyone had a room to themselves. The lower level was convenient for our dogs to go outside via the sliding doors, with lots of room for their crates. We are familiar with the area & knew to shop in Somerset before heading up the mountain. The ski season has not started so the resort at Hidden Valley was closed; there was limited dining at Seven Springs but we planned to cook here & shopped accordingly. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, silverware, cookware, paper products. Spices provided were limited so make sure you bring what you will need Since we are not skiers, we are unable to rate that aspect, VRBO did not give me an "N/A" option!The neighborhood around the town house is nice for walking, with paths and trails. and has a fitness trail with exercise stations if you are looking for a longer workout.Owner was very responsive and sent handyman to replace a burnt out bulb for us super fast. Communication was great. we will definitely consider this house again next time we are in the area.

Holly was great anything we asked for or needed she made sure we received it in a timely manner. She was great to work with and answered all of my email right away. We had 7 people and had plenty of room. The area was beautiful, and the pool was a plus since it was in the upper 80's to 90's while we were there.

Comfortable/Clean/Roomy Rental & Good Location

I was there in summer and a very hot one! (Note: Don’t know if take dogs any more). But dogs & I had a very nice time. Kitchen roomy with good selection of dishes/silverware. Just needed few small items like ice trays & good can opener & new Dish cloths. Upper deck off kitchen. Basement very comfortable & roomy & cool in high heat with 4 bunk beds. Small full bathroom and patio/grassy area/corner lot. All beds in house appeared to be in good shape and comfy, so even if have aches you’d find one to fit. 2 A/C floor units worked great along with ceiling fans in bedroom. In winter, not to worry! I suggested living room furniture needs updated as getting worn. Was nice to have a roomy place. Bedrooms and upstairs bathrooms all fine. Lots of nice towels. Washer and dryer convenient and worked good (especially when traveling long term). Could walk/run on cul-de-sac area and trail beyond that. Very quiet with weekenders. Right near top of slopes for skiiing (I’m not a skier so check it out).My younger dog loved it there as he had room to exercise his legs! He ran the stairs!
