Please stay indoors during this time, keep the windows and doors closed and keep the volume to an enjoyable but reasonable level. If it is loud enough to be heard outside in these conditions, it is too loud for you to remain our guest. This property includes a noise alert monitoring system in order to ensure that neighborhood noise levels are respected. Again, please realize we want every group to enjoy their time, laugh, have fun and make memories. These devices are only to ensure noise levels don't reach a threshold that bothers our neighbors.

The location was great. The facility is old but it would’ve been a great experience if facility was maintained appropriately. However a lot of maintenances are needed. 1. Outside deck and stairs to the deck should be renewed and fixed. It’s flexing and bending when you step on it and it feels unsafe. 2. Dead fly and many spiders on sofa in the living room. 3. Toilet sewage leak from a pipe located just above the entrance door. 4. There was a table tennis equipment. But the table was broken (net can’t be attached to the table correctly). 5. We couldn’t use the fireplace because there was no kindling & paper to start fire although there were a lot of large logs. The host was not willing to compensate for the issue (we claimed only for #3 issue above), and stopped communicating with us. If these are fixed, this would be a good place to stay.

The stay was good overall. The place was comfortable and the location was convenient, close to many activities and things to do. It worked well for what we needed.

The cabin is nice. The fireplace didn’t work and the home was not evenly heated, which made the bedrooms incredibly hot while the common rooms were very cold. The cabin is clean, generously sized, has potential, is in a good location because of its proximity to skibowl but the price doesn’t meet the overall quality.
