Our space is great for remote work (which we do all the time), either at the desk in the bedroom or at the comfortable counter, table, or living room.

The large backyard is fenced-in for your peace of mind for small children and any fur babies. Additionally, the in-floor heat in the garage is perfect for storing skis, boots, snowboards and cold-weather gear for the next day's use.

We spent 3 nights at that place. The house is clean and very well maintained. It's only 5 minutes ride to crystal mountain. The backyard is fenced so you can safely let your dog out. Owners were very nice and responsive to all our questions. We definitely would stay again

Perfect Summer Getaway

We really enjoyed staying at this property. It was a beautiful home with a fenced in backyard perfect for kids or a pet to run around in. It was a 2 minute drive to Crystal Mountain if you enjoy golfing or skiing. It also has 2 nice bathrooms and one has a bathtub that is nice to have with kids. It is in a beautiful location easy to access but surrounded by trees and feels very private. We will definitely be back!

Best option around Crystal Mountain

We really enjoyed our stay. The property is a nicely-designed home - spacious, pristine condition and well equipped. The hosts were extremely attentive and made the whole process easy. We’ve stayed at a number of condos at Crystal Mountain . , . This place is head-and-shoulders above those options.
