We went with friends for the outhouse races at Sapphire and had a wonderful stay.  The house is perfectly set up for a group with plenty of privacy as well as communal space. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking large meals. The house is walking distance to the slopes which made watching the races easy without dealing with traffic.  We would definitely rent again.

Great House and Location

Lovely home in a great location.  The family loved it and would reserve again.
