Overall - wow, what a great place, close to gondola (5 min walk with gear on), parking garage, we loved it. See below for description and some recommendations for owners and Vacasa.
BEDS and BATHS
This is a 4 bedroom, 4 full bathroom property, with king, queen, and 4 twin beds. We had 6 guys on a ski trip, and we all agreed the mattresses etc were very comfortable.
KITCHEN:
The kitchen is plenty big to prep some nice meals and well-furnished. There is no ice-maker, and we recommend the owner buys some additional ice cube trays. We were able to cook breakfast every morning and a few dinners without issue. Hint for future renters: check in cabinet above microwave for leftover spices before going to grocery.
LIVING AREA:
Couch and 3 chairs made it easy for us all to sit around and watch some basketball games after skiing all day. There's a coffee table, DVD player, and the condo is subscribed to Xfinity (as of 02.03.2023). It would be easy to bring a Roku or Firestick to plugin to TV for additional channels and streaming.
LOCATION:
There is a small, albeit expensive, grocery across the street, along with a burger bistro (highly recommended) and a bar. Walking outside to Gondola is under a 5 minute walk with Gear on - perfect for skiing as well as being able to run back for lunch during day. Combine that with the parking garage onsite, and its almost impossible to have a better location in Steamboat.
AMENITIES:
There is a heated pool and hot tub, right outside the front desk. The hot tub is huge, built like a small pool, and could easily have 12 people in it. Beautiful gas fireplace. by pool along with gas fire circle and gas grills for cooking - awesome outside environment. We were here for skiing, but this would be an excellent summer condo as well.
CHECKIN-
This is where it was a little harder. Vacasa did not respond to messages via VRBO on our day of check-in, so we did not have parking code to get into garage when we arrived to check in to condo. We did finally get through to Vacasa by calling the number listed in the VRBO listing, but they did not have the parking code, and the codes they gave us for both the condo and wifi were incorrect. HOWEVER, Snowflower had a terrific front desk worker who was able to get us all situated.
FINAL:
The condo needs a deep clean, and some updates to furniture and TVs. HOWEVER, for a guys's trip, or a family trip with kids - this place is perfect.
