Our family of four stayed here for a long weekend during our kids' fall break and it worked great for us. Nice home, nothing fancy, but everything you need for a weekend in the mountains. We had a lot of fun watching movies and playing pool in the basement. Sitting in the hot tub listening to the river every night was nice too. There's a nice hiking trail you can pick up right across the street and downtown Breckenridge is less than a mile down the hill.

Beautiful, peaceful, serene.

Even with lot sof neighbors, the trees made us feel secluded. The hone was clean and the hot tub was incredible! There is a walking bath across the street that takes you downtown through a beautiful short walk in the woods. Easy for kids too! I would definitely stay here again.

Overall, the space worked great for family of 8 people. The issues we had were cosmetic and cleanliness. The carpet is in bad need of a cleaning or just new carpet in general. The non carpeted areas left your socks black. The king bed was the only comfortable bed. All others need new mattresses. More pillows needed in beds as well. The couch and chair in living room were pretty dirty. The couch needs replacing as it is broken in the corner piece and on the end. The dryer does Not dry efficiently. It took 4-6 hours to dry a load of towels. Bathtub on main floor does not drain well. This would be a great property to stay at if some overhauls of replacing/updating furniture and a deep cleaning of floors were done.

House was near perfect - location, layout, etc. 2 of the 3 fans were inoperable, and the grill needs a good cleaning so it will start, and the exterior could be cleaned up. The property management company guidelines were the most troublesome. 4pm check in and 10am check out restrict your stay enough, but having to go down into town to the office and pick up and drop off keys takes even more time and inconvenience. Why can't the set up a keypad like every other VRBO I have ever stayed at? Also, the parking restrictions are ridiculous. There is ample room for more than two cars so you don't have to shuttle and pay for parking in town.

Our family really enjoyed this place! It’s very spacious with plenty of room. Everything was clean (except the grill could use a good cleaning). Hot tub was really nice. A previous reviewer mentioned the poor lighting in the kitchen - would agree, but not a big deal. Kitchen was well equipped although the dishes were right out of the 70’s! We also could have used some Tupperware type containers to store leftovers. Third floor was a lot warmer than the rest of the house. We did find a fan in the closet which helped. Overall, you can’t beat the location - a short walk to everything, and the decks overlooking the river were awesome. Highly recommend for a large group getaway. We had a spectacular time. Thank you!!

We booked this rental because of it's proximity to main street and having a river out the back. We could hear the river the moment we got out of our car. However...our 4 night stay turn into a 3 hour stay. A family illness caused us to turn in our keys and go back home. Chris with Summit Rentals was kind enough to refund our pet and cleaning fee. Real bummer we did not get to enjoy our rental, but Summit earns 5 stars from us and has earned our repeat business.

Perfect spot for a big family or good sized group!

This home is tucked tightly onto it's site with neighbors nearby, but it has a great location within walking distance to downtown. The open loft makes quiet time a challenge in the upper level master suite, and the pool table adjacent to the lower level bedrooms can also be a challenge. We had small children with us and there were lots of hazards such as stairs without guardrails and immediate access to the creek. The kitchen was big enough, but very dark. The living space is narrow, and the furniture is set up to look at the TV instead of out the windows at the view. The outdoor spaces were nice, but lacked adequate furniture. This space would be good for groups of adults or older children, but was not ideal for our family vacation.

Our experience was great overall! We had a group of 10 adults coming to celebrate my birthday. Summit Mtn Rentals were very responsive when we got there and the driveway was very icy; they sent the maintenance crew to put down extra salt and shovel. The house was very spacious, house was clean, hot tub was warm, kitchen fully stocked, and we made ourselves right at home. It was a 10+ minute walk but you could walk to town and the lifts from the house. We would definitely stay again!

The house gets high marks for location and design. It worked well for our extended family and the path to town through the woods was a great plus. There was one unresolved issue. The connection to the BBQ on the deck leaks gas, which creates an unpleasant gassy smell in the living room when the deck door is open. This might even be a safety issue. The agency sent someone to check it out but he apparently didn't smell anything. Everyone in our group did. The tile at the back of the tub in the upstairs bathroom needs repair. On the whole the house was great and we enjoyed our stay there.
Manager response on 2011-08-27 - Response from Summit Mountain Rentals
Thank you for your feedback. We have replaced the valve for the BBQ. All the bathrooms will be remodelled by November 1st. I hope this solves any tile issues you saw.
