Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### maureen L. 2 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This house is in a great location - just a block or two from Vail Village, but in a neighborhood so it is quiet. It backs up to a pond with a beaver home, so we enjoyed watching the beaver swim around and collect branches, as well as a funny little fox who came and went frequently. The house is very comfortable and was perfect for our trip. ##### maureen L.

Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bridget E. 1 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing Stay in Vail We had a great stay in Vail. The house couldn't be better located. We enjoyed walking into town and to the gondola to ski each day. The house was well stocked with fire wood and has a beautiful fireplace, nice kitchen with good kitchen tools/pots/pans. The bedrooms/baths were nice and it is convenient that each King can be split into two twins. If you have younger kids, note there are some tight corners and the living room & den are combined and on the smaller side. The property manager Michelle was wonderful and very responsive. ##### Bridget E. Stayed 9 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sean M. 8 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice Place in Quiet, Convenient Location This is a unique architectural property. The location is in between the two gondolas, so you can decide which way to go each day. An 8 minute walk either way, and a short walk to restaurants and amenities. Michelle was very responsive and made check in/check out easy. Recommend that you use one of the upstairs bedrooms as the master; they are a bit larger and have a more convenient bathroom set up. ##### Sean M. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark A. 27 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family Wedding Visit to Vail The property was fabulous. It is unique and accommodating. The space worked very well for our 6 adults. The convenience to Vail Village was perfect. The only thing that took a little adjustment was the glass open plan bathroom with glass doors to the toilet/shower. Some guests would prefer a little more privacy for the toilet…. But overall the home was delightful ##### Mark A.

First of all, the location is just about perfect, short walk to lifts and midvail stores and resteraunts. The interior really gives that cabin in the mountains feel with the large great room and massive fireplace. Beds are comfy (huge plus), every room is ensuite, kitchen is very well stocked including the two most important items, martini shaker and wine aerator. Managment was very communicative and helpful. Over all the perfect place for Christmas. ##### James E.

The hot tub was a great way to end the days and the fireplace was amazing especially at night with a glass of wine.

We had a larger family 6 of us, and this was perfect for our needs compared to a hotel. It was spacious and super comfortable. They also had a lot of basic amenities that some properties do not have like coffee, salt, and pepper to get you started. It’s a beautiful place, a little smaller than the photos suggest, but all in all really great. Also, I left one of my airpods, and Michelle and the cleaners found it and kindly mailed it back to me. So A+++ all the way around. ##### Moses K. Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2023 ---
