  • Great Location - but no bathtub use

    4/5

    All of the bathtubs (x3) had the drain plugs removed so they couldn’t be used. Assuming to save $20 in water bills which is ridiculous for a rental. We have a newborn and little kids so finding this out wasn’t fun and cheapens the experience.

    Otherwise, house was nice and clean. No issues with appliances or other things, everything worked as it should. Great location to literally ski in & out from back door.

    Just bring your own bathtub drain plugs if you intend to use.

    Hi Andrew, we’re so glad you enjoyed the townhome and wonderful location, but we’re sorry about the issue you ran into with the drain plugs. After sending your feedback to the owner, they’d like to share the following: We provide drain plugs in the vanities and drawers in each bathroom. We sincerely apologize if you were unable to locate them or if they were removed. To prevent any further inconvenience, we've added more plugs. We wish you had reached out during your stay so we could have directed you or provided a replacement. Thanks for letting us know about your stay.

    3/5

    My wife and I stayed here for what was to be a week. The weather was very warm (nearly 60F) and the conditions were bad for snowboarding during our entire stay during mid-February. While I can’t hold that against the property, there were a range of little items that are not what we expected given what we paid. Perhaps we focused more on them because we spent more time in the unit - and would have noticed less if we were exhausted from time on the mountain.

    When we arrived, we were greeted with dog poo and cigarette butts littering the grassy area next to the driveway. While I am sure from prior renters or even neighbors, I would expect that this is something that should be cleaned up. In addition, there were popcorn kernels on the floor, a dirty kitchen chair and crumbs, and other items between the couch seats. Perhaps just a one time miss by the cleaning crew.

    The property itself is very functional and well-kept, with a fully stocked kitchen and 1 ½ common areas (the second small area on the first floor would work well for kids - especially in the summer). However, all of the bathroom tubs (including the soaking tub in the MBR) did not have plugs installed, so it was not possible to fill them. Same for ½ of the sinks in the bathrooms. The MBR shower door would not close, and the MBR toilet room’s ceiling light was out (I would have tried to replace myself but I did not have a step stool or ladder).

    While the property is listed as ski-in/ski-out, the resort closed the Southwind left which directly services this unit about ½ way into our stay because of the poor snow conditions. While not the fault of the owner, etc. - this made the unit not a “ski-in / ski-out” property as described in the listing for ½ of our weekly stay.

    The property is also listed as having access to a pool and hot tub - we tried to locate them, but upon arrival to the community center it appears that they are outside only, and were not open - so no hot tub (even though the property description says you can soak after a day on the slopes - but then a later note says only open May to September?). Perhaps there is another hot tub which we could not find - but note - unlike some other units in Southwind, this unit does not have a personal hot tub (but to be clear, is not listed as such).

    Overall, very much a meh stay for us. For the premium paid we would just stay elsewhere in the resort in a different unit if we were to return.

    Hi Tom, we take guest feedback seriously and passed your comments on to the homeowner who would like to share the following:
    - We strive to provide our guests with a great guest experience, so we were disappointed to hear your feedback and want to take a moment to address your concerns.
    - Although outside of our control, we're truly sorry that the weather didn't cooperate with your plans for your stay.
    - We were unaware of any issues or concerns, and wish you had brought them to our attention during our many conversations. We would have promptly responded and been more than happy to address any concerns you may have had. We will follow up with our cleaning team to ensure closer attention is paid to detail so future guests do not share the same experience.
    We do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests.
