Loved this house for a family ski trip. Fit two families perfectly and the layout was perfect. Amazing snowy views, vaulted ceiling, and fire places. Laundry room had a perfect mud room entrance for ski gear.
We had a lovely stay at the cabin. The communication from the mgmt company was seemless and the check in was easy. The cabin was in good condition and fully stocked with what we needed to make our stay enjoyable. We would stay there again.

Nice house but needs TLC
Skislope Sanctuary was a nice house, great location with plenty of space but truly needs some attention. Kitchen cabinets were in bad shape and the kitchen was lacking in basic supplies. There weren't any sponges for cleaning and missing a wine opener. Other parts of the house was the same The doors were very difficult to lock. Some TLC would go a long way to make this a great house. The listing didn't show an outdoor grill, the Grand Welcome office didn't have their information correct either but there was an outdoor grill. Overall, it was a good stay but we wouldn't consider this house again unless they fix it up and included more kitchen supplies.
Very nice house with a great location. Took about 30 minutes to drive to Lake Tahoe. The property manager was very responsive. The only thing we missed in the listing was that the house does not have AC. They did bring us an extra fan which was very nice.
do not show up we are a fire crew and was called to a local fire before we where to check in and being out fighting the fire could not call and when i got a chance to i was told to bad
