A fabulous time!

As much as I'd like to keep this place a "family secret," my conscience is forcing me to write this review. My brother, sister, and I rented this home for a long weekend at the end of the February school break to celebrate my mother's 80th birthday with all of our families, and we all had a fantastic time. In total we had 6 middle aged adults, 4 kids ages 7-11, and one 80 year old. As my mother said, it was the perfect balance of rustic and luxurious.
The state-of-the-art kitchen not only looked beautiful, but was fully equipped, allowing us to make fabulous meals and a birthday cake from scratch. The open hearth fireplace in the center of the house provided the perfect place for a few good heart-to-heart talks with the nieces and nephews as well as late night gab sessions with the adults.The space is so well designed that anyone who needed a bit of quiet had a place to escape to, yet there was plenty of room for the kids to mess around.
In addition to the close proximity to ski areas and tubing, the special treat was the pond in the back which provided a lovely private skating rink--once my brother-in-law put a little energy behind the shovel :-) We could not have asked for a better experience!
