Windows on the Water
Everything about this place was great, we will definitely stay here again! The house is comfortable and well appointed throughout. The bed was comfortable as was the living room furniture. As wonderful as the inside is, the outside is even better! The hot tub was inviting and the perfect way to relax after a day of boarding. The grill is a nice touch. We grilled steaks while listening to the sound of the creek. And speaking of the creek, if you crack open a window or two you can enjoy its sounds inside the house as well. The neighborhood was quiet and welcoming, and we look forward to our next stay!

Amazing Cabin, and Wonderful Host!
The cabin is amazing, the location is beautiful, and David is a perfect host. My family has stayed here more than once, and our experience has always been wonderful. This is the perfect get-away cabin, for any time of the year, and one that my family and I would love to return to again some day.

We had a great time at David's cabin. Cannot beat the setting, amidst the trees with the stream running right underneath the deck. Such a cozy place. Fully stocked and very clean. Host was a very prompt communicator. So close to Sundance Resort. We would love to come back again.

Fantastic House
We absolutely loved staying here. We were celebrating our anniversary of meeting each other many years ago up there at Sundance/Aspen Grove. The house is very well maintained, has an incredible yard with the stream and trees. Perfect place to sleep and relax and go visit Sundance and go hiking. Good WiFi. Really the only negative is that if you are tall (I’m 6’4”) it isn’t a perfect fit. You will have to shower with your head ducked down as the water comes from above and was about 3 inches too short to stand up straight. My wife is just over 6’ and did fine. Also, there aren’t many window coverings. The windows in the master bedroom face the street and you can see in the windows if you are in the uphill part of the street - we put up a covering. And in the master bath you can also see the street and some houses. If you’re shorter it may not matter but my wife and I both felt exposed. But overall the house was on a great lot, the architecture is gorgeous, and this is where we’d stay again in a heartbeat when we come back. The owner was really great about communicating and we had a great stay. Very highly recommended.

River Runs Thru is a delight
My husband and I were thoroughly looking forward to our two-night stay with our college granddaugther and her roommate. We had dubbed the property our "tree house" by the stream and found it to be as advertised, except that the outside deck area and shed have been completely rebuilt and are even better than the pictures show. It was cozy and enchanting. Our granddaughter said it was the best night's sleep she'd had in ages. We loved all the windows and light. We made breakfast at home both mornings and had all the necessary equipment in the small but completely functional kitchen. The river was truly running thru, even rushing thru! but we grew accustomed the loud sound by the second day and night and the view of it from the master bedroom is marvelous. There is a lot of outdoor peaceful seating on the two balconies, outdoor deck around the new fire pit, and on the deck above the new shed. We gave less stars for the communication and check-in process only because there was a little glitch and we didn't receive the info for some reason. Fortunately we met David as we were arriving and he was very kind and helpful, giving us all the info we needed and then some. Thank you! We never did figure out the way to walk to Sundance, but it was so close to drive and very conveniently located to the on-site restaurants, outdoor theater and Stewart Falls hike, which we wonderful. We highly recommend taking the chair lift too. The views are spectacular! Completely enjoyed our stay.

Incredibly unique house. Internal Stair system to three bedrooms?? My kids thought it was the coolest thing they have ever seen. There was gorgeous stream running right next to the house. The house was clean and well maintained. The area was great and spent a lot of time at Sundance Mountain. I would recommend this house to anyone.

Beautiful setting for a quick weekend getaway
We enjoyed a restful few days in the mountains. The sound of the river at night was soothing (although quite loud due to the high runoff after a record breaking snowfall winter). Neighbors are quite close, but it wasn't an issue for us. We had everything we needed, instructions were clear and thorough, and when needed, David was easy to get ahold of and quick to respond. Sundance Resort is an easy walk from the home. The only negatives were (1) a strong odor in the fridge when we checked in - like something had rotted and was cleaned out just before our arrival - shouldn't be an ongoing issue; and (2) the shower in the main on-suite bathroom is a little quirky and has no shelf or stool, but is as pictured, so no surprise. We felt this home has a lot to offer for the price.

Thank you for your feedback. We have a very powerful aerator on our hot tub that makes the water cloudy with air bubbles while the jets are running. We typically keep it set at the highest level because it helps increase water pH (which otherwise trends toward acidic due to use of sanitizers like Bromine). But I've adjusted them down a bit based on your feedback. Thank you for making the effort to provide feedback - we sometimes don't see things the way guests do because we own and lived in the house for so long. We are happy to have your perspective.

Wow! What a unique and incredible home. We loved all of the windows & being tucked in the forest over a river. The sound of the river & the sight of the stars at night was simply breathtaking! We enjoyed river kayaking, fishing, horseback riding, spelunking & zip lining just minutes away from the cabin & still had time to soak in the hot tub, roast s’mores around the campfire & play games at the house. It was a much needed vacation for our little family & we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place to enjoy being together. Thank you!

Total misrepresentation
Was nothing like the pictures that were shown on Vrbo. The outside had weeds, was not well kept, the inside was not even the same furniture, the upstairs toilet was in the shower. The upstairs doors leading to the outside would not lock, screens were torn, the upstairs bedroom door had plywood on it. The owner should’ve notified us about the flooding, sandbags everywhere. I could go on…

I'm sorry your experience did not meet your expectations. We have replaced the seating in the house common area. So it's a different fabric but the same configuration. As you can imagine, with a rental house that is in use 200 nights a year, we replace upholstered furniture or coverings fairly often as they get worn with use. We actually have two sets of many furnishings in the house so we can rotate things out to be deep cleaned if we can and replaced if we cannot. We are on the forest floor so we do allow what nature nurtures to thrive until we're sure it's a weed - so you will see Columbines, Aspen saplings, Fir saplings, Spurge and other natural stuff all over. If it grows up to be a dandelion we will pull it. I checked the locks and cannot find the one that didn't work for you. All our sliders have two locks on each door so they can perhaps be non-intuitive as a door may appear to be unlocked but - in fact - is locked. We replace screens on our sliding glass doors about 3 times a summer. As you can imagine, while we know where the screens are in our house, often guests do not and walk into them by accident. It's a few minutes to repair and we appreciate guests telling us if one is torn. We are always available and live near so we encourage guests to call is if it appears that something is amiss. Sometimes it is and we aim to remediate it immediately. I am sorry we were not able to do this to your satisfaction.

Magical spot in the woods
We loved this house! Very unique and the river runs right under the house! Just gorgeous. It was a great location- close enough to walk to Sundance and enjoy the resort amenities. We explored the area- hiked, took an art class, went fly fishing in the Provo river, and drove down to Provo one night to check out Evermore park. All in all we had an awesome vacation and would definitely stay again.

Beautiful spot and home
The home was awesome! Such neat architecture—all the windows gave a beautifully immersive experience! Things were comfortable and clean! There were quite a few wild turkeys so there was a decent amount of droppings all over the porch but that’s just nature—not much you can do about that! The home and kitchen were stocked with essentials, there games to play, and the hot tub was awesome. I took one star off for two reasons—both of which may be the snow’s fault. 1) The listing states parking spots for two cars but the space that was cleared for parking wasn’t nearly big enough for two vehicles—particular ones with 4WD as is suggested. We took great care to maneuver the veihicles to be parked within inches of each other and one vehicle was still kind of hanging out in the street. 2) One of the main reasons we booked with home was so that we could essentially use it as a ski-in/ski-out for Sundance Resort—we were told the lift was a short 5 min walk. Maybe the snow had blocked a short-cut path we couldn’t find but it absolutely did not seem feasible to walk. And even with a shortcut, the walk back would be quite unpleasant (especially with ski gear) given that the uphill difference in elevation is quite significant. That being said, the drive to the resort is SO quick and parking at the resort was never an issue!

Anyone at Sundance this winter would be lying if they told you "Parking isn't a problem". Our flagstone parking area which is normally 30' deep and 15' wide now has snow piled 12' high all around the periphery. There just isn't any place to put the snow. So, I absolutely acknowledge that this winter, parking is less than stated - all over the mountain and in our yard. Sorry about that. But this is a cost that brings with it the benefit of having the resort still having mid-season snowpack at the first of April.

The pictures enticed us, and the actual stay was just as great. The family loved the hot tub after a day of snowboarding. The heated floors were so great to walk on. Watching the snow fall while laying in bed was perfect. The wild turkeys roaming the property made the kids day. The snow was piled high and covered everything, but I know David worked hard to have it cleared for us. Thank you for a wonderful week.

Magical!
After 3 days of insane crowds at Park City/Canyons, my husband and I decided to extend our trip to try Sundance. On a Mon night, we booked this home for Wed thru Fri. In our booking, I asked the host if there was a way to get us in early because we'd only really be there Wed and Thu as our flight on Fri required us hitting the road at 4am. The response was quick and positive. There were guests leaving Wed morning and the host said he'd get the place cleaned up asap so we could get in early. Then it snowed. I thought for sure we'd have a problem but I was wrong. I got a text from David in the morning letting me know that he was at the home cleaning and shoveling. We arrived when he was still there working and that was really helpful when it came to parking on this tiny mountain snowy road. David sorted us out, took a break to chat with us, made us feel extremely welcome then went back out to shovel more to be certain we'd be safe. All this extra work for a last minute 2 night booking that I'm sure he really didn't need. Amazing. The home in the mountains surrounded by enormous, 7 foot snowbanks with tiny passages carved out is nothing less than storybook. The home is cozy and warm and lovely. Sundance was outstanding. No crowds, beautiful views, spectacular snow, and the Owl Bar. This was a 10. Book it and skip the Park City/Canyons part.

The heated floors are amazing and doesn’t even require the use of the indoor fireplace as the entire house stays so warm. We will be back!!

The inside of the house is exactly what you'd expect, and all of the features of the house worked. My only complaint is that the back deck/table area seems to have been removed and replaced with a guard rail, and the shack is torn apart.

Response from VrboOwner on 26 Oct 2022
Hello, thanks for your feedback. The area that you're referring to that has changed was all damaged by heavy snowloads during the winter. We have replaced it with a new heated deck with a firepit and a new "shack" that can handle snowloads and simultaneously offers a new sundeck. Sorry the pictures haven't been updated yet. We probably will reshoot that area in the spring as we've already had snow this year which makes it harder to get good pictures. The hot tub and BBQ area have been improved by the new deck as well.
