Warm and welcoming chalet with spectactular mountain views in Snowshoe Resort

The Snowshoe Cabin was a great accommodation for our 3-day ski trip. It had plenty of room for our group of 10 as well as a good location on the mountain. The home was stocked with everything we needed: towels, blankets, cook-ware, etc. There were some electrical problems on one wall, causing the TV not to work during our stay. However everything else was perfect and only added to our enjoyable experience at Snowshoe.

With the early snowfall - thanks to Hurricaine Sandy, my husband and I decided it would be fun to get a glimpse of the Snowshow resort before the ski season. This beautiful chalet provided a great escape and most comfortable accomodations for our weekend get-away. Most spectacular are the views and the comfortable living room area and fireplace - a great place to curl up with a book or game with the family. Bedroom accomodations are cozy, well appointed, and with exceptionally comfortable mattresses. A great place to melt after a day of hiking, skiing or whatever you choose to do.

We had a wonderful time hiking the back trails around the lake - with snow up to our knees. Most locals thought we were nuts but we loved every bit of it. We are coming back for Thanksgiving weekend - slopes will open early this year.

Can hardly wait to come back and re-aquaint myself with skiing and other winter sports. We will definitely want to stay in this house as it met all of our needs and expectations for comfort, convenience, and seclusion. The owner is most accomodating and engaged with assuring that we had all that we needed. Also gave us some hints on area attractions. Really felt safe a secure with this relationship.

A group of 7 of us rented this house during ski season, and it was by far my best rental experience (of the 3 prior years at other condos on the mountain). The open floor plan of this property is one of the best aspects of the house. All of us were able to comfortably hang out in the living room around the fire after a long day on the slopes, which is something that has been a problem with other condo rentals. The beds are great, new Flat screen TV's were a nice bonus, and as long as you don't mind a small hike up the front stairs, the view at the top on the front porch/balcony is beautiful.
On the listing, it recommends you have a 4-Wheel drive vehicle... If you going during snow season, make sure you bring one. The driveway is steep and we had some issues getting a 2-WD SUV up, and there is no parking allowed on the road. We had no issues at all with AWD and 4WD vehicles.
The location of the house is also great. If you are an experienced Skier or Snowboarder, it is located on the side of the Western Territory. I wouldn't recommend you walk, but the shuttle can take you to the end of the road (about 1 min drive), and puts you about half way down "Cup Run" where you can get on the lift at the bottom that will take you right over to the other side of the mountain versus taking the shuttle to the village (you would have to already have your lift tickets).
We had a wonderful trip and will definitley be renting this property again next year. Thank you so much for sharing your house with us.....And Fred of course!! (If you rent the house that will make sense to you when you get there)
