"An amazing stay! The property itself is surrounded by mountains, that adds to the location! The common area / patio is where we spent our evening where a few other guests were hanging out as well. The set up was amazing and we enjoyed hanging out there. There is also a hot tub in the vicinity that can be enjoyed based on availability. The room was spacious enough with a big bathroom. We went in Sept and the ventilation can be a bit tricky as the heater was making our room too hot. There is no staff here, you can access your keys from"

We called the number on our receipt and it was answered quickly and we were given instructions right away. There was actually a kitchenette which Expedia did not mention either, which would have been helpful."
