5/5 The host was welcoming and reached out to us before our stay to offer a late check out, which was great because we were able to get an additional morning of skiing.The place was clean, warm, and perfectly located to ski on and off Jiminy Peak. We highly recommend it and would go back next year!

One of the best skiing experiences I ever had
5/5 We discovered Jiminy Peak resort 2 year ago and wanted to come back because it's such a nice family-friendly and homey-feeling place. Night skiing is big deal for us. Back then we stayed at a hotel. This time we found this amazing house and enjoyed every bit of it. When we came a hot outdoor jacuzzi was waiting for us. In the morning you wake up to a beautiful view of the mountain with white ski-trails. We were very pleasantly surprised to find a little path (1 minute walk from the house) that leads straight to a ski trail. So, this is almost ski-in-ski-out house. Definitely don't need to drive. All the details are thought trough - from a little ski closet on front porch to big dining table that easily sits 12 people, to garbage shed that is far enough that you don't smell it, yet close enough that you don't need to drive to it. Plenty of supplies, towels, garbage bags, nothing is broken, all light bulbs are working - these are small things, but everything matters when you are on a family vacation. The house is very bright and clean. The owner is very nice and accommodating. Definitely would come back.
5/5 Very well maintained and host was very responsive
