Some positives, but not everything expected at the price point

This Cresco home has some definite advantages. The outsides are beautiful in the snow, the hot tub was lovely, and the game room was fun. The hosts were quick to respond to messages on the app and tried to be helpful where they could. Beds were comfortable and clean. Most things were serviceable and overall we were able to enjoy ourselves. There are plenty of ways to enjoy this location, but you may expect an easier experience for your money.However, after 20 years of renting with this same group of people, our impression was that the house did not live up to the expectations at the price point. The stairs were not de-iced prior to arrival, and this presented a potentially treacherous entry. Remote controls were misplaced, missing batteries, or just overall missing which made using the movie room (a major draw for the property) difficult. The sauna never got hot enough for its purpose. There were various other small factors that would not be deal breakers but wouldn't be expected at this cost (empty soap dispensers, fragile furniture we avoided, a lack of basic kitchen equipment like full size cutting boards, etc.).
