Nice place with beautiful views; just not quite "private"
We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. Here are the pros and cons of the place:
Pros:
-beautiful view of the mountains
-there is little hillside and wooded area on one side of house; nice to walk and sled
-house appears newly renovated
-nicely decorated and furnished
-very clean
-very convenient to surrounding towns and the mountains
-owner responded almost immediately whenever we contacted her
Cons:
-listing describes property as "private." not quite. house is right along a two-lane road with a lot of houses on it (although it is in the country). house fully visible to road, and cars go by very fast. so house itself is not private at all, and definitely can't let little kids or dogs out and not have to constantly keep an eye on them.
-there were a few things we immediately noticed upon checking in--kitchen faucet leaking, and backdoor not locking. owner was responsive when we contacted her but there was a lot of back and forth and these were not things that were fixable without having maintenance come by; we were only there a few days, so we elected not to do that. owner seemed responsible so I assume these things would be immediately fixed once we left.
*Just to be clear, neither of the above are dealbreakers at all (thus the four star rating); the house is VERY nice and the view is killer; just be aware of first con above because there's no way to know that with the information VRBO gives you
