Sprimg Break Ski trip

We had 2 adults and 5 boys. Plenty of room to spread out and the house is even more lovely than the pictures. Pool table and hot tub were a hit with the kids. Kitchen was a hit with the mom. Really like staying in Georgetown- cool little mointain town.

Great for Ski Trip with Friends and Family

8 adults and 6 kids stayed here and the place was plenty big. Probably could have squeezed in another 4 adults and 4 kids with the amount of beds. Frank has the house WELL stocked with everything you could need from movies to board games to candles for mood light in the tub to a pack and play for the babies to condiments in the fridge and pantry. It was wonderful. And that's not to mention that Frank showed up while we were gone skiing to shovel the driveway even though we told him it wasn't necessary.

Georgetown stay

Such a wonderful experience at the Saxton mountain retreat. We stayed over Christmas and the cabin with the snow was magical. The owners made sure we were comfortable and even cleared the driveway prior to us leaving. Super thoughtful. Highly recommend.

Special gem of a spot

This house is so lovely and unique - gorgeous layout and design with plenty of skylights and large windows to bathe it in natural light. There are lots of nooks and crannies to spread out and hang out without being on top of each other. Lots of bathrooms and sleeping arrangements to keep everyone comfortable. The kitchen is fully stocked with essentials and extras (we made use of the pancake griddle and crockpots). The hot tub view of the mountainside is lovely. Lots of hiking right out the door without having to get in the car, and plenty of skiing and trails within a short drive. Frank was a great host, communicating everything we needed clearly and being available if we needed anything - which we didn't! Loved this house, and we plan to come back.

Great Place close to Lots of Ski Mountains

My family had a wonderful time skiing multiple mountains, as well as shopping, and relaxing. We enjoyed using the large kitchen for meals. The bedrooms were spacious and clean. The hot tub was a bonus! Would stay here again.

Great Mountain House

This house was amazing. We had a great time, it was more than large enough for 4 adults and 6 kids. The pictures don't do it justice. It was very nice and we don't have any complaints at all.

Relaxing stay

Frank was very responsive and supportive during our stay. The house was well maintained and we absolutely loved the relaxing time we had around the town. We were stuck during the winter storm and Frank let.us extend our stay during the storm - I really love the hospitality and Would love to come back!

Great home for 7 adult sisters & our dad as a base for exploring the mountains! Plenty of room to spread out (sleeping & solo time) & also to be together (at meals, in the hot tub, walks from the property). Thanks for sharing your home with us.

60th birthday celebration

We loved our accommodations. The hot tub was amazing. Frank was quick to respond to questions before and after our stay. We would recommend this place to anyone that loves lots of space, beautiful scenery, a quaint town, and Darla, the neighbor’s dog.
