On the lower level, aside the 2nd master, the bunkroom provides additional sleeping complete with 2 bunks as well as a daybed all off the second family room. There are also 2 additional inflatable twin beds from Frontgate that can be moved around to increase sleeping capacity as needed.

Memorable family vacation

This large house offers ample space and practicality, which are essential for a ski vacation. The large kitchen is a wonderful space to gather for meals, family games, and puzzles. There are plenty of places to sleep and well placed bathrooms to accommodate a large group. When you walk in the front doors (upper and lower) , you are met with a large space to take off all necessary snow gear and ski boots. The hot tub was clean and overlooked a beautiful view of a national forest. This place could easily deserve the 5 star rating, with a few simple updates. The presence of dirty light switches, a badly stained kitchen sink, one bathroom shower drained very slowly, and very old bed pillows detracts from the overall experience. Addressing these issues through updates and attention to detail would greatly enhance the stay for future guests. It should also be noted that when we arrived, the cleaning service had not been scheduled as planned. Therefore, we were required to do our own cleaning before we could settle in for our vacation. This required us to do a significant amount of cleaning in the kitchen, and sheets for all the beds had to be laundered by us. We also had to clean the floors and do some light cleaning in the bathroom. The hosts were incredibly apologetic and did everything in their power to help us deal with this situation. Despite this significant setback and the noted cosmetic needs, my family would certainly choose this rental for our next Keystone vacation

About the host

Hosted by M Balcerzak

We are a large family who lives down in Denver and loves everything about Summit County. We love summer as much as winter in the mountains and savor every moment we get to spend there.

Why they chose this property

We had spent several years looking at different properties. As soon as we walked in the door, we knew we had found our home. The size is perfect for our expanding family, allowing our children and grandchildren to enjoy everything we love about the mountains with us.

What makes this property unique

The location of the home is ideal for us, allowing us to acces the home via the Loveland Pass as well as through Silverthorne. Also, as it backs up to National Forest giving us the privacy a large family with small children needs, we have access to the activities we love from our back door!
