We absolutely loved Jen's house. The welcome packet was so detailed, the house so well cleaned, and so many amenities provided! The house is also perfectly located halfway in between Big Boulder and Jack Frost if you want to ski both mountains one weekend!

Weekend getaway

My husband and I stayed here for a quick weekend getaway. The place was nice and clean. The only issue we had was the strong smell of campfire upon entering the house (from the fireplace) this was communicated to the owner. We made due and still had a great stay.

Cozy Cabin

Beautiful location right on the water. The host was very responsive. It was extra chilly when we were there so we did not get a chance to enjoy the water, but would like to return again in the future.

Short ski trip

Property location is perfect for BBJF. Owner was very responsive and helpful. The property is what it is, a little older but you're not paying a premium rate so you shouldn't be surprised. Overall very happy with our stay. One thing just FYI, although home is cozy, the downstairs was cool and the upstairs will dry you up. If dry air bothers you a vaporizer may be helpful.
