Cute cottage near beautiful lake

My family and I rented this house to ski at Sugarloaf and see the total eclipse in April 2024. The house was perfect for our purposes. The house is in a community with shared spaces and is a 40 minute drive to the mountain. We enjoyed the communal fire pit and made friends with neighbors. Note that in order to get into the bedroom with the full size bed, you will have to walk through the bedroom with the bunk beds. Loved our stay!

Cabin needed light repairs

The host was very accommodating and easy to get a hold of when needed. This is a seasonal cabin and needed to be opened and aired out much earlier than our arrival. The cabin was well cleaned and stocked with the necessities. Pest control should be a priority especially during the colder months when left unoccupied.

Beautiful lake

Overall the location of the cabin was amazing. Amazing views. The size of the cabin was just perfect for what we needed. Things to improve would be to have someone come in and clean before guests arrive. There were a lot of spiders and we had a mouse that visited with us. He had left poop in a lot of places in the cabin. Another suggestion would be to have dehumidifiers. Every night when going to bed the beds were extremely damp to the point of almost not being able to sleep in them.
