4 adults and 2 teen boys spent 6 nights in condo 707. The layout of this condo could not be any better. 3 BR downstairs w/3 Baths. 2BR have direct entrance to 2 baths and 3rd is 3 steps out 3rd BR door. All BRs downstairs keep them cooler than top living area(entrance level). That equals good sleeping. All the matresses are comfortable and plenty of blankets.
There is a large kitchen, good sizes living room, a dining area, and a 1/2 bathon the entry level. 6 people never got crowded in this area. The fireplace(gas) is in a corner and kinda hid by furnishings but we moved the furniture back about 2 feet and it really opened everything up without limiting access to the stools at the kitchen counter. The owner should try this set-up to see how well it works. The washer and dryer is located in the 1/2 bath which eliminates the need to go up and down the stairs to move the clothes from washer to dryer.
The balcony off of the entry level is small but enough. It has great views and the small stream running over the rocks just out back makes it peaceful.
The location is ideal for Powder Mountain which we spent all of our days. We were a little worried pre-trip of being to far away from everything but that turn out to be sooooooo wrong. There is a grocery and places to eat within 3 min drive of the condo and also place to rent ski equipment in Eden(3-5 min). Both the grocery and ski rental place have discounted lift tickets for the slopes in the area saving about $6/person.
We did not get a snow fall while we were there but it is clear to see that a 4x4 is required if it snows. The 4x4 is required for driving to Powder Mountain if it snows but they do have a free shuttle if you choose. I would rent a 4x4 SUV anyway just to be sure I could get to and from the condo to Eden when I wanted to.
We all thought this was a great place to stay and that it had alot of positive and no negative but 6 people's imput and 6 nights stay and we really had to get nit-picky to improve this condo but this is it.
1) Propane heater on balcony to enjoy the view and wildlife in the winter.
2) Boot and glove dryers at the entry or in the snow equipment closet.
3) quilts on the beds to match the cabin decor.
With 6 days and 6 people...this is all we have and that is why this condo gets an "A" rating from us and we will return next year.
