Ski weekend

Half the ski hills were closed due to lack of snow however the chalet provided us with a comfortable place for our family and friends. It had all we needed to stay in and cook and play games. The was room for a pack n play in the bedroom and we were able to include 2 family dogs.

Tealwood

Overall, the stay at Tealwood provided our family with a much needed UP ski vacation that was once an annual trip of which we had a 3 year hiatus. We planned this trip only 3 months in advance so knew our typical standards would be unlikely met. (We are frequent renters of Bear Necessities which is a ski in/ ski out premier chalet. ) So Tealwood looks like it was made in the 70's and is an A frame with 3 floors which did accommodate 8 of us. The main floor is the living room, kitchen area- tight with all of us hanging out but it was still fun. Kitchen well stocked but little counter space for our food we brought. Refrigerator is regular sized and in good condition. The dishwasher is in poor condition and broke during our stay. Washing dishes was fine but with little counter space they needed to be dried right away. A suggestion would be to free up a cupboard for the renters food besides get a new dishwasher. Bathrooms and bedrooms were clean with proper amount of towels. As the place is old, the carpet and flooring are old and worn. The place allows for pets, which we didn't have and wouldn't choose a place that did if there were other options, and there was dog hair in abundance. I'm not sure if the cleaners need a newer or stronger vacuum cleaner or if the carpet is too worn to be cleaned well. In the bedrooms, a good clean is due as there was a good amount of dust between and behind the furniture. The blankets and curtains are old and dark which if they were updated would bring a fresh look to the place. Response to the management on questions, needs we had was courteous and responsive. All in all, we love BPLA and have a reservation for next year already- at a different chalet tho.

We enjoyed our time at Tealwood - perfect location for both downhill skiing and getting to Nordic Ski trails in the area. It had plenty of space and amenities and loved the sauna.

Mixed bag

This is a beautiful area and neighborhood to stay in, and enjoy the fall colors, and local waterfalls. Our biggest complaint, that I immediately sent an email about was the dirty unit. They did refund our cleaning fee of $40 and sent over some cleaning products per my request. That being said, I am an experienced traveler and I like attention to detail and response when I message with a question. With this unit being a part of the big Powderhorn Cooperative, I expected more and was disappointed. This unit would be a good place for a large group, who just want to sleep there and don’t care about the extras. Linens were clean. The fireplace was not cleaned and we asked about maintenance on it, but did not hear back, so we missed out on a perk of the place. The electric start grill didn’t start, so we ended up using the stove for burgers. The water tastes bad, but we knew about this from another reviewer, so we were prepared with all of our own water. Overall, we love the setting, but the unit itself is old, smells musty and is in need of updating and a real good cleaning. I did warn the manager, Bernie, that I would be writing a review, so this will not at all be a surprise to them.

The cabin is huge! And so beautiful! Loved it💕

The cabin was absolutely wonderful! It was easy to find, and the WiFi in it was great, especially since the service around the area is spotty due to it being thick woods and up higher. No complaints at all. Spacious, clean, tons of room, 6 people and we all had our own rooms or sleeping space (the loft upstairs). And absolutely beautiful. And a very rare phenomenon... there were little to no bugs! We were shocked, but it was nice! Overall it was wonderful, and we will be back!

Needs an air out

Serious issue with milldew or mold, the house smelled and we could feel it in our lungs within minutes of walking into the house. No water filter on the faucet even though the water is so hard it's undrinkable and turning everything brown. Floors are coming up in places. Fireplace hadn't been cleaned out. Layout was good and would have worked well with a big group.

Nice place to Relax

Had a relaxed weekend at Tealwood. Nice location and house was clean. The only problem that i had was that pillow covers were not clean and had hair on them. Please make sure you keep the linens and pillow covers clean.

Not as pictured

The pictures of this property need to be updated as it is more run down than shown There was a musty odor in the downstairs that was difficult to tolerate. Also, I realize this is out of the control of the property owner, but the water smelled terrible (sulfur iron mix). There was a sliding glass door that was stuck open to the outside, a huge tear in the carpet of a bedroom and the grill did not work. We did not contact the property owner about any this, so in all fairness they may have repaired it if we did. However, it was clean and the kitchen was well stocked.

Bad communication

Communication was horrid. Office address never given to me. All closet full of junk. Tile on floors peeling up. Dog poop and leaf pulled left on deck that we had to clean. No gas in tank for grill. We supplied it ourselves. I then got late check in because couldn’t get ahold of anyone. The envelope I needed to get and was told to get was nowhere to be found. One bedroom door does not shut.

First time to the UP

Overall, we had a very nice vacation in the UP. This was our first trip to Ironwood/Bessemer and the snow did not disappoint. The house was in a great location - everything was close by (ski resorts, hiking trails, XC skiing, fat bike trails...). If you like the outdoors, this is a great area to visit. In general, the house was good, description was accurate, and met our needs. There were more than enough bedrooms and bathrooms. It was clean. Although the description is accurate, one thing that we were a little surprised with was that the kitchen is on the second floor and besides going outside in the cold and snow to use the deck stairs (which the deck is really nice), the only inside stairs to the main living area are the narrow spiral stairs shown in the photos. They were kind of cool and “cabinny”, but we usually vacation with the grandparents and young nephews/nieces which would have been an issue. For the area, this house was on the upper end of the price spectrum so our expectations may have been a little higher based on other premium priced VRBOs that we have stayed at. So on a scale of 1-10, we’d rate the house a 6 or 7. It is not bad by any means, but compared to other similarly priced places, this was the oldest and least up-to-date. The property management was quick to respond to needs. Unfortunately the resort’s pool which is supposedly available to guests was not available due to maintenance. And since we were able to get lift tickets at Indian Head for almost $30 less per person per day than had we had gone to Big Powderhorn. ($40 vs $68), we never got to take advantage of the added value benefits of staying in the Big Powderhorn Village.

Tealwood

We had a difficult time finding the place as the address posted on the app didn’t come up on any GPS list. Instead we had to enter the town into GPS, then when we got closer we entered the road name. It was not very clear from the VRBO property listing that the property was part of Powderhorn - which would have made directions easier. I would say for others renting, providing directions would be helpful. Also, check-in was an hour after the rental office closed which was not convenient from a guest perspective, especially since we had some questions about the house that never were answered. Overall the stay was good. The location to the Porcupine Mountains was great.
