Anniversary Get-away
Loved the location and set up of this Carriage House. With some updates and a bit more cleaning, would have given it a 5*. Basically was clean - just some things that a last minute check by cleaning crew could have cleaned up and given a better first impression. Needs some maintenance issues done and it could be a 5*. But in spite of these things, we enjoyed our stay, loved the space and the views from the house.

We booked the cottage for a quick ski trip and loved it! It was quaint and the location was peaceful after a long day on the slopes.

Very Little Instructions/Operational Directions
Couldn't find any intructions posted inside the guest house, which wiould've been extremely helpful. Also, the keypad code quit working so called Vacasa & got a new code. It didn't work either, so ended up using the lockbox code & used the key throughout our stay. Just one thing after another; first time we had this problem renting thru VRBO.
