Stayed December 16-22
PROS:
-Location was great/convenient
-Bedding was wonderful
-Sofas were comfy
-Water pressure for shower was very good.
CONS:
-No Welcome Letter upon entering the unit (we did receive our information packet upon check in at the office) but nothing inside the unit that would explain where the jacuzzi, game room, steam room were located (we stumbled upon these our last day there). That there was an under ground garage (happened to see another car come out from there, otherwise we wouldn't have know it existed). Information pertaining to the FREE BUS Route (it did, indeed, pick you up at the end of the driveway, but it would have been nice to know the schedule and which buses took you where).
-No TV in Bedroom. Just an inconvenience.
-Bedroom Lighting wasn't pretty dark in the early mornings or in the evenings. Take the table lamp from the living room and put on the dresser and it's a game changer.
-My biggest disappointment was no acknowledgment of the Holiday Season. This is a personal issue I had and should no way sway you from booking this property. I'm well aware not everyone celebrates the Holidays that fall at the end of December...so this CON is for the owners to reconsider next year. As it was a real downer that there wasn't ANYTHING in the unit that would tell you it's the most wonderful time of the year.
SIDE NOTE:
You can walk to everything in town and that includes skiing (NOTE, keep walking down Broken Lance Drive and behind the first large resort, you can walk directly into the ski rental place and walk right onto the line for the ski lift...we stumbled upon that ourselves).
I HIGHLY recommend getting a rental car at the airport upon arriving in Denver. It's pricey, but worth it... parking is super cheap, but fills up quickly. NOTE; You don't pay for parking in the early morning hours on Main Street, it's free until 10am.
Restaurants:
Literally tons of choices. And nearly every place we went to had GREAT customer service.
Breakfast: Daylight Donuts (unbelievable donuts), Blue Moose Cafe (get their hot cinnamon roll )
Bars: Napper Tandy's
Dinner: Salt Creek ( go upstairs to Napper Tandy's and have a White Russian before your dinner. You can bring your drink down to your Salt Creek Table)
The Crepe Cart was fabulous for breakfast, lunch, dinner or dessert...PRICEY, and LONG lines but worth it!
