The hot tub was very dirty. The shower curtain was very dirty. Bedroom door and bathroom door wouldn’t shut in master bedroom. Tv remote missing and was told to use a phone as a remote. Over all it could be a very nice place if it were taken care of better. Also ice maker machine wouldn’t work and the toaster cord was burnt. Toilet seat was loose was I was asked to tighten it up by manager. Spider webs inside and outside. I will not stay here again.

Great location and space!
We enjoyed our stay here. The host was very helpful and always responded promptly. The hot tub was great, and the views from the back porch were amazing! There was plenty of space for 2 families. Pretty much everything we needed was provided, including an extra microwave when the one installed in the house was not working. A little more attention could be paid to the cleaning of the floors, as we found lots of dog hair and crumbs. But otherwise we really enjoyed our stay here.

Excellent Home & Property Manager
We stayed here for a weekend and the home was amazing. It's well equipped with all of the essentials. The hot tub and back deck overlooking the river were perfect for enjoying morning coffee or an afternoon soak. The property manager was absolutely amazing, wonderful communication and just all around lovely. We will definitely be back.

Mostly good
The inside was surface clean but the outside was not well maintained. The porch was very dirty. The grill was filthy. There were weeds in the flower pots (no flowers) and there were trees growing through the deck. There was no gas in the fire pit. Should try to clean a bit more.

Peaceful and spacious
This house sits right on the river- so close that the water is right at the edge of the deck. Also the deck is way bigger in person than in the photos. The hot tub is huge! The bedrooms were spacious and we got nice cool air coming in the windows at night.
The kitchen is large and open to the living & dining area so it was perfect for our whole family to be together while cooking or watching a movie on the large TV at night.
The best part was sitting on the deck and just hearing the water!
Also, the host was very quick to respond to questions. Overall a wonderful stay!

Peaceful getaway
We could have stayed on the back deck 24/7 listening to the river and watching wildlife - it’s so peaceful. Home had everything we needed and beds were very cozy.

Comfortable home with a few issues
The house is in a lovely location on the river with a nice large deck. The kitchen is nicely outfitted with all the things you might need. The house was comfortable. While the river is only steps from the back deck, with a lovely view of trees across the river, the access to the river was impeded by lots of overgrowth and a funny structure which was in the way of being able to fish from the bank, only a few feet were accessible. The campfire turned out to be a propane table which was out of propane. The hot tub was over-chlorinated which burned your eyes and nose. The back deck was covered in spiderwebs. One bathroom was accessible by 2 pocket doors, one opened to the bedroom and one opened to a hallway. The lock was broken on the hallway door which made it awkward while staying with family, you want to be able to lock the door to the bathroom.
We enjoyed our time and the location is excellent so giving this house 4 stars but we were disappointed in the above items.

Great home, great location!
This was a great home for our family ski vacation. Equipped and cozy, with plenty of sleeping space. Beautiful spot right on the river, and the hot tub on the deck was very appreciated. Convenient to Wolf Creek and Doc’s rentals. The drive down/up from the highway could be tough in some conditions, but we had no trouble with our van. JoyceAnn is nice and easy to communicate with. We hope to return. Recommended!

So much fun!
The river is right in the back yard. So pretty and peaceful! Hot tub on the porch, when we would come back in the evenings the kids got in the hot tub and they loved it. Plenty of room in the house and everything you need to cook Our trip got cut short and family members were unable to come, but we can’t wait to come back!
