  The condo was well kept and well stocked! There were 6 of us and a pup. It was quiet and the stove was perfect when the power went out for 15 hours (we had 4+ feet of snow in the 3 days we were there!) We will definitly go back!

  We had a large group and this property worked out great. Facility has everything we needed, and has the potential of being a great ski lodge for large groups. But it does need some updating. Carpet was torn in places; Washer/dryer did not work property; some chairs are worn; etc. Locksmith came and replaced the locks when we got there. Wet pillow left in the washer.
  
  Thank goodness for the great staff at MHVR who was there to help us. WIth a little TLC and updating, we would love to come back again with our families!

  WENT UP JUST FOR THE INCOMING SNOWSTORM AND HAD A BLAST WITH THE PUPPIES. THE ONLY BOTHER WAS THE CONDO IS A LITTLE DARK. UNDERSTAND A SNOWBOARD CAMP/RENTAL IS AT THE TOP OF THE PARKING LOT SO IT CAN BE A LITTLE NOISY AT TIMES, BUT THE GUYS WERE VERY NICE AND HELPFUL (ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU GET STUCK IN THE SNOW!). WILL DEFINITELY RETURN.

  We enojoyed reading during the rainstorm in this coozy cabin. The kids had plenty of room to hang out. This is our third visit to this cabin and we continue to enjoy its location and convenience to skiing, snow shoe and cross country trials. This is a magical spot.

  We found the Edelweiss an oddly shaped space. It suited our needs, but given the overall square footage, we found the kitchen/living/dining area a bit cramped.

• Your condo is over rated and does not live up to your advertisement . Never could fing the Hot Tub Bath room no bigger than a small closet .Rugs in living dirty and full of stains .

  Erik S from Steamboat Springs, CO recommends this vacation rental

  Mostly we enjoyed the stay.
  
  The cleanliness of the unit was questionable. One look under the beds and one can see that the last time there was a vacumn there was in the last century.
  
  There was also some hard, late night partying going on with other residents. I had to speak with them about our diametrically opposed schedules. But that part is not your fault. And no one was badly injured in the ensuing melee.

  Nice place. I enjoyed it. But there were some minor things that should have been taken care of prior to our arrival such as NO lights working and chair broken. These were promptly repaired but calls had to be made to take care of that could have otherwise been avoided had the unit been inspected prior to our arrival. Other than that, we all enjoyed ourselves.

  Property was very dark and noisey. Seemed like the complex is where local workers live and they like to rather noisyAlso, smelled inside. Management was very helpful and thank you for providing a second fan.

  • Manager Responded on 11/7/2009

    There are lots of tall trees all around the condo complex, so not as much sunlight will come in. And you stayed in Government Camp in the middle of summer, when the ski and snowboard camps are at their busiest. If you are young and energetic and love snow sports, the buzz is for you. But if you prefer a quieter vacation, we recommend staying in the lower villages of Rhododendron, Zigzag, Welches or Brightwood.

  a guest from Stillwater, OK recommends this vacation rental

  Overall the property was quite satisfactory. It was well eqquipped with very usable and plentiful ad good linens. On the first daywe had a problem with the upstairs bathroom drain being partially plugged so that the tub did not drain during a shower. One my sons unplugged the drain primarily hair, so the ladies would take a shower without standing in water. Someone should check this drain periodically. To me the overall price seemed a little steep for the quality of the accomadations, but I am not familiar with equivalent facilities or newer faciltries and the price range of such facilitie. We had an enjoyable family stay.

  James A from Long Beach, WA does not recommend this vacation rental.

  I would probably not recommend this property do to the fact it was fairly pricey and yet other than the fact there was snow out side there was no reason. It was decent but not nice. Reading the folder, everything is a $25 charge. The warning about the poor plumbing and then the threat of a $25 minimum charge if you can't get it to work is lame. Someones car alarm was perpetually going off through the evening. Not the end of the world. Out of concern I called the after hours number left a message and received a call back in which the woman seemed nice enough. Yet in her greeting I was told. "Even though this isn't an emergency I decided to call you back." I don't even remember what exactly we paid. I think it was to the tune of $279 dollars a night. For a mediocre apartment at best except with an overtone of doing anything out of line earns you a $25 dollar min. fine.
  In the end, it served a purpose with nothing exceptional to speak of.

• We loved the location in Gov Camp but found the living space (kitchen, dining, and living room) too cramped for the number of people designated for the space. Carpets need repair and kitchen is well stocked except for flatware.

  While I appreciate the customer service, the condo was not worth that price. It was difficult to locate light switches and the ground floor toilet made noise 24 hours...enough to keep people awake through the nite.

  We really liked our lodging... the only slight inconveniences were 1) we had to drive 10 miles past to pick up our key, and 2) it was very difficult finding our suite in the dark as the numbers were spotty. Otherwise nice service and nice place!

  a guest from Salem, OR recommends this vacation rental

  We loved the condo and the location was perfect. We towed our kids on a sled everywhere! Having small kids, they played in all 3 bunk beds on the 2nd floor. We were then charged an additional cleaning fee of $150 to make the additional beds, even though they weren't used. The property management company was very inflexible on this point. I understand extra cleaning for extra cleaning, but that was equivalent to $50/bed. I can't imagine they are paying their cleaning crew that much.

  We couldn't reach anyone at the office to announce we would arrive later, because there was only a 800-number on the papers we received. Later, the office people recognized this was indeed the management's fault. Still, we managed to arrive at 6 pm, but the office was already closed and again we were not able to reach anyone. Even the owner of the opposite gasstation tried to reach someone she knew, but it didn't work. We were therefore forced to book 2 rooms in the nearby resort. When we claimed back the first night, your office clerck was very impolite and refused. Thus we paid the full rental sum, although it was clear we tried to follow all your procedures! I often plan itineraries in the States for friends and family and friends of family and you can surely unerstand your properties will never be offered in future travels of ourselves and the people I book for!

  • Manager Responded on 9/14/2008

    Actually our employees received all calls from the guest and they returned over 1/2 dozen phone calls between about 4-8 PM. We are not sure why they did not get the phone calls.
