Amenity-Filled Home: 1 Mi to Heavenly Ski Resort!

Reviews

• Perfect house and a very attentive host

  5/5

  My husband and two children (ages 5 and 7) stayed here for a ski getaway and we had the best time! The house (though a bit smaller than I expected from the pictures) was just perfect. Mike, the owner, thought of every little detail. From having shampoo & conditioner in every bathroom to a work station with a greenscreen set up for those that need to do some work while staying there to a curated selection of wine available in case you'd like to try something new. The kitchen was better equipped with quality appliances and cooking essentials than my own kitchen at home. The kids loved the wide variety of toys, books, and games and, of course, the fussball table. We also enjoyed the hot tub after skiing every day. Unfortunately, we didn't get to try out the sauna since it was just too warm, but I loved the idea of it. On the other hand, the kids did play on the little play structure and swing set in the back every day. And of course, we all loved telling and asking the computer things - the whole house is computerized. The location was perfect - the house is conveniently located with only a 4 minute drive to the slopes and a few minutes to Whole Foods. (plus a bunch of restaurants). Thanks again Mike! We hope to be back!

• Renter Beware

  1/5

  We reserved this home in mid-April and were notified 6/22 that the reservation was cancelled due to a "rate discrepancy". This means the owner decided to be a greedy, selfish cow and DOUBLE THE PRICE. We were able to verify that this property was re-rented within 24 hrs for twice the price.

  We had arranged for friends to come in from all over the country -- from Alaska, Alabama, & Washington DC. Coordinating our vacation time, additional travel from the airport, etc -- so many logistics went in to planning this and now we have nowhere to stay.

  Yes, the owner has the right to charge whatever they want -- but to CHANGE the price after an advertised price and reservation? Smells too much like bait-and-switch. I also understand Economics 101 -- as demand goes up, so does price (apparently COVID had nothing to do with this disaster). Ethics asks, "Just because you can, should you?"

  (Karma, please take over!)

  And we'll never use Evolve Vacation Rentals either -- they allow this. I can understand something like COVID messing up travel/vacation plans. But NOT a "vacation rental" company that doesn't consider the renters as 'customers'...only the rental property owners. So if you're a renter, you don't matter. Just keep that in mind if you're looking to reserve THIS property or work with Evolve period.

• Central Location, Unbelievable Amenities, Happy to See Dogs!

  5/5

  I don't think there's anything the host didn't think of. Everything is labeled, the tech integration is amazing. It's a great property whether or not you decide to leave it during your stay. There's a game room, all the premium streaming, a hot tub and sauna, a backyard with slackline, trampoline, and play structure, and a fenced in dog run. The internet is fast.If you do want to leave its very easy to get to Stateline, to the beaches, and to the lake. It's basically perfect.

• Relaxing stay

  5/5

  My family stayed here for four nights. Our host Mike was the greatest he was right there if we needed anything. Plenty of room and toys for the kids. Loved the hot tub and sauna. The kitchen was well equipped with everything that we needed to cook. Great place to sat, relax and enjoy watching the snow come down. We would stay here again. Mrs. Haug
