I had the good fortune of renting this "Cedar River Retreat" for my family and friends for 4 weekends during the 2011 ski season. What a wonderful find! The pictures are a perfect representation of the interior accommodations but what you can't tell is how comfortable the beds were for sleeping and the furniture to sit on. And there was plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen is well-stocked with dishes and cooking utensils and even has a gas range. There was also an adequate supply of towels, dish soap, dishwashing soap, laundry soap, paper towels, board games and videos/DVD's. While this condo doesn't overlook the ski hill, it's just a very short walk to where you can strap on your gear and head down to the purple lift. My snowboarding teens thought it was very convenient. And speaking of convenience, there's a keypad on the front door which eliminates the need to worry about losing a key. The town of Bellaire is about a 10-15 minute car ride away and it has a Glen's Market, Dollar General, Radio Shack and some great restaurants.
I'm not a golfer but my husband is and I know Shanty Creek is known for its beautiful and challenging golf courses. This condo is just a short walk away from the Cedar River Pro Shop and overlooks one of the holes on the Cedar River course. I guess you could say it's golf-in/golf-out too.
To top it all off, the owner was wonderful to work with. She was both willing and able to honor any reasonable request I had. However, If you do choose to rent this wonderful condo, please don't do it when I want it! :0)
