Very cute cabin that looked exactly like the photos! The view from the loft was also beautiful to wake up to. Perfect for winter trips as the A-Frame layout is super easy to heat up. Check in/out was also very smooth and the place was also ready much earlier in the day than expected which was amazing.Only downside that others have mentioned is the cleanliness. Not bad but the place could really do with a deep cleaning-- there's dust and cobwebs on the upper areas that seem to have been there for years, the windows could also do with a cleaning & there was still previous pet fur on the carpets/furniture which didn't bother me but if you're allergic it might do. Dishes were also a bit grimy on arrival and we struggled to help keep the place clean because we weren't provided with a sponge to wipe countertops/sinks.
Really nice cabin with a great view of the slopes. Just big enough for 3-4 people. Very comfortable furniture. A bit warm in the summer but cools off at night. Definitely a repeat stay kinda place.
Great place for a mother/daughter getaway. Loved the location and the outside deck with THAT amazing view of the ski hill! Darling decor & very comfy! Would love to come back!
The home was so cute, I wanted to move in!
Clean as a whistle and accommodated my sweet Lab.
We loved communing with nature and living in the trees for a couple of days. Would love to go back.
A Frame is a very nice house in the Moonridge area. Perfect for 1-4 people. The house is very nicely decorated and very clean. It feels super welcoming. Some stains on the living room furniture but no wear and tear. Great kitchen! Cute, but small, bathrooms. The back deck is incredible! I had breakfast out there every morning and enjoyed cocktails on the deck every afternoon. Once dark, the back deck provides a spectacular view of the starry night sky. Nice, quiet neighborhood! I would definitely stay there again, except… There is no AC and the beautiful A-frame windows get direct sunlight all day long so you have to keep the shades drawn which is kind of a bummer with that gorgeous view. The owners do provide several fans and that helped a lot. I kept the windows open in the evening and early morning so I got cross breeze to cool the house down. The other negative, which wasn't too big of a deal given it was summer when I stayed, is the driveway is very narrow, very steep, and at an awkward angle off the street. You either have to drive nose down then back up to get out - and hope you don't scrape your car against the wall or roll off the side and down the hill. Or you have to try to back down and hope you don't scrape your car or roll down the side. I just took things very slowly but I can imagine in the winter if you have snow or ice it would be way too sketchy, at least for me. Otherwise I truly loved it. A great value for a delightful home .
Nice Cabin with pretty view and windows. Over all we enjoyed our time. Furniture and pans are worn. Downside was some of the cleanliness. Cabin was generally clean. However, Ceiling fan is filthy with years of dust and we found long black hairs all over. On the furniture, in the shower, On the faux plants. I wouldn’t stay there again but the weekend we had was good especially because of the snowfall and views from the large window.
This was the perfect house for me. As a solo traveler, I felt safe and cozy in this cute little a-frame house. My one complaint that others have mentioned. During the afternoon, the sun shines in the back of the house and it gets quite toasty; especially in the upstairs loft bedroom. It was ok for me because of the time of year. It was October and it got quite cold at night and the house cooled off once the sun went down. I don't think I would have liked it during the summer months. Overall though, it's a great house in a quiet neighborhood. I would definitely stay here again.
A wonderfully decorated and remodeled A Frame. Our family had an amazing stay and look forward to returning soon. The property was even nicer than represented in the photos. It is small but SO COZY and fun. The decor was a perfect blend of function and style. I highly recommend this property and the management company.
Booked this A Frame for an anniversary getaway with my girlfriend, and it was a smash hit.The cabin is perfect and everything that was promised in the listing!The day we planned to arrive, we received a notification from the Host notifying us that winds in the area had caused for the potential of power being shut off in the area, and gave us numerous options to reschedule or cancel, all with no issues regarding deposit or payment, which was greatly appreciated. We ended up going along as planned, anyway, and although for the first night there was indeed no power, it ended up being the best night of the entire trip, as we stopped on the way to pick up some lanterns, snacks, and board games, leading to a great date night in the cabin!Great host, great area, and great place. We will definitely be back!

The house was quite nice but the place had not been properly cleaned in a long time. The view was amazing and there was everything that one might need in the house. The management company is terrible, there were spiderwebs across lots of the ceiling the fan is caked in years of dust and the windows were long since cleaned. It is clear that the property manager pays the minimum for a minimum cleaning between guests and the house is just not properly clean. The management company was quick to have us sign paperwork and text about all the manner of fines that would be levied if even the hint of misbehavior was assessed but was unable to provide the WiFi password in the property and was slow to respond by text. We had to pay via Vrbo and directly to the company which I’ve never had to do before and was suspicious. We would stay again if there was a different management company and someone gave the house a good clean. However as is I wouldn’t recommend it for the price and the hassle.
