Overall satisfaction: Services from rental manager: Cleanliness: Location: Property condition:
Cabin was comfortable and clean. Enjoyed the views and wood burning fireplace. Kitchen was well stocked for the most part. But, cookware needs replaced, and a full set of measuring cups/spoons are needed.

Relaxing retreat
Stayed 2 days ending April 2022
Overall satisfaction: Services from rental manager: Cleanliness: Location: Property condition:
Everything we needed was available. The instructions were clear for checking in and out. We weren’t quite expecting such a long, winding drive up the mountain side but it was worth it! I was hoping some hiking trails would be nearby or easily accessible but it seemed to be mostly private property. Overall, our stay was cozy and relaxing.

Dawn, we thank you for your feedback and are glad you enjoyed the property! We will be glad to recommend something on lower elevation on a future trip. There is a hiking trail in our community that leads to a waterfall, and it is open to visitors as well. Please be sure to check with us again in your future trip and we will be glad to assist locating it. Thank you!
Perfect Mountain Cabin Getaway

The cabin was absolutely stunning. Flawless checkin/checkout process and the staff are the best of the best. Beware of neighbors(residents) to lower right if out on the porch. Felt that we were constantly be watched due to being renters.

Home away from home
Stayed 5 days ending December 2020
Overall satisfaction: Services from rental manager: Cleanliness: Location: Property condition:
This cabin was so comfortable it literally felt like home. It was nice and clean, something that was extremely important to me especially with COVID. I greatly appreciated the phone call we got about the roads being frozen and slippery & not going out until the recommended time. Being from Florinda & never driven & snow I can’t truly express how much this meant to us. If you want a beautiful view of the mountains and a nice comfortable cozy cabin this is must. Management is top of the line. I will only rent a cabin here because of the quality.

Beautiful vacation home
Stayed 4 days ending October 2021
Overall satisfaction: Services from rental manager: Cleanliness: Location: Property condition:
We had a great stay at Alpine Sky this past weekend. The house was beautiful, had a great front porch. We enjoyed the gas fire pit on the porch. The house was clean, had what we needed in the kitchen and bathrooms, after hours help was provided one night when needed. A couple of suggestions.. the upstairs rooms could use window coverings. And on the description of the house it would be helpful to know the drive time from the office to the house. I don’t think that would have changed our choice but would have been good to know. Thanks for a great stay.
