Great spot for multiple ski options
Overall the place is nice but few things that could be improved and things people should know. The game room is a separate building to the house, it’s the garage next to the house so just be prepared to going in and out especially in the winter when everything is muddy and need to take your shoes off in the house. Also the PAC Man game was not working but it’s a great space overall There is no BBQ at the house and the oven was not cleaned because when we used it there was so much smoke coming from bottom of the oven and when we pay such high fee for cleaning that disappointing We had booked for 10 but could not find bed linen for the pull out sofas The hot tub is in the glass house behind the garage and there is not lights so if using at night it’s dangerous as place is so muddy around the house and even inside the glass house so hot tub was dirty and no where to hang your towel I think if they just put down a tonne of gravel around the house this would help with a lot of the muddy spots The wood burning fire was not working, one of the sliding doors we couldn’t get opened Also we were told you cannot flush toilet paper so be prepared for that!!! As grown men it was not something we needed!!

It was a great place to stay with family and friends. Lots of space for the young ones to run around outside. Loved the giant fire pit to sit around at for hours and stare at the stars at night.
