Beautiful place, and the hot tub + view was amazing. We always prefer to stay in South Fork when skiing Wolf Creek. This place was perfect for our party of 12. Definitely recommend.

We had a great experience in this rental. It’s located conveniently within South Fork and about 15 miles from Wolf Creek. Everything about the home was cozy and the amount of space was great for 10 adults. The management company was very communicative and helpful with every question we had. Would love to stay there again.
