Summary: I was just telling a friend that if I had to rebook this trip I would start with rebooking this house. The four of us found plenty of room to spread out and relax after driving the mountain roads around the resort. We cooked a meal in the kitchen and found everything where you would just expect to be. The view is something out of a painting and is epic. The property is well maintained and comfortable. The hosts are responsive and pleasant. Only small issue is if your car is super low be mindful of the driveway, don't use the church side of the driveway. The red car just made it.
