The Mountain Vista Estate

Overall we enjoyed our stay. The kitchen was lacking in casserole dishes, complete measuring utensils and could use more coffee cups. Found out the night before check in that the upstairs washer and dryer didn’t work. Very dim lighting to downstairs washer dryer. Deck furniture would be nice also.

Overall, the location was good, the home was large and in decent condition, and we had a good time. The price was low for the size, which was great, but my wife and I set expectations low as a result and that was probably the right move.Be aware if you have high standards, some of the finish and condition is not great. One of the clothes dryers seemed to be broken and the other was in a utility room that didn't seem to have working lights. Some blinds were clearly broken. Someone used indoor flooring on the front porch which had curled enough it was bordering on a tripping hazard. We only found one used bar of soap for showering, though there was more than enough shampoo and conditioner. The listing says "Onsite parking options include a garage", and while there was a garage, we had no access to it. I would be reluctant to bring a young child there since the stair railings were clearly not up to code (a child could easily go through the openings) and their solution was to tie a baby gate across the length of the railing on the top floor. It's possible that makes it meet code, but I think the uncovered section when on the stairs remains a significant hazard for a young child. All this said, the property worked out great for our family under the circumstances. I'm just going through this list so if someone reads it and things "that doesn't sound like the place for me" that is probably the case. If you are easygoing, it is probably just fine.

Was the perfect option for a large family needing sleeping privacy and large spaces to come together. Easy access to Snowbasin and other ski resorts. Quiet and beautiful setting.

Overall house met all the standards and was well kept but it was obvious the owners have not been in a while and that some corners were cut to make it a vacation home for a large group. Location and neighborhood were amazing. Main issues were: no body wash in manyBathrooms, the listing stated 2 full kitchens and there was one kitchen with most of the cooking supplies on their last leg, horrible cookware, etc. Fire place was broken but we fixed it. Host was great to work with and overall had a good experience, just had a few snags along the way.

Took our security deposit without a proper justification. Don't review often but here u go:1) the dishwasher worked fine when we left 2) you have provide no proof it was actually broken. If it was physical damage send me a picture. If it's electrical how do u know it just wasn't old? Or faulty? 3) many stuff in the house was broken / bad:4) grill was disgusting and didn't get hot 5) front top door does not lock6) fan in upstairs bathroom literally dropped out of the ceiling and almost landed on someone's head 7) temperature differential btw rooms was 10 degrees! 8) gas fireplace not hooked up
