This home was perfect for 5 seniors. Close to Scandanave Spa. Very quiet. Fully equipped and clean. Not recommended for those with mobility problems as bedrooms were upstairs

Lovely Family Trip
We booked this so our family, part of which reside in Texas, and the others in Ontario, could spend some quality time together. The condo is so charming! The location is perfect for outings to the mountain and to the beach, and also a short driving distance from great restaurants and shopping. Check in was no problem - the host sent instructions a few days in advance. We enjoyed some of the games that we found in a closet but did not explore the grounds at all. After we left, we realized a jacket had been left and getting a hold of someone to retrieve that was a challenge. We finally found the location of the property management company and drove to the office. The ladies there were kind enough to give us an access code to retrieve the jacket.

Beautiful condo
I stayed for 3 nights with my spouse, 3 year old and 3 teenagers. The unit was beautiful, nice common area behind the unit, and quiet neighbourhood to ride bikes. The host however was non responsive the entire stay. There were issues with the BBQ not working properly, and the kitchen wasn't well stocked with common kitchen items.

Short Vacation but almost perfect
The property is very clean and the location is very close to all amenities particularly the Blue Mountain Village. Our stay was very short only but it’s worth it! It was very comfortable and it was the perfect size for our family. We really enjoyed our stay on this property and would definitely recommend it!

Golfing weekend getaway
Property was well maintained, clean and check in was easy. The property was everything we needed for our golfing weekend for my husband's birthday. We ate dinner in the village on the first night and bbq'd the second night, it was very nice and conveniently located to golf courses.

The condo is beautiful!
We enjoyed our stay at the condo. It's lovely with very high ceilings. There were quite a few cob webs high up that need to be dusted away. Other than that the place was spotless. We did NOT receive the address and entry information @ 3pm as indicated. With a few texts and phone calls we received the entry code. All in all I would definitely stay there again.

Nice place & location! Couple of things that need improvement
Place and location were great. Remote control was missing from the bedroom, and had to download a universal remote app on my phone to use it. I was told I'd receive an e-mail by 3:00 pm on day of my arrival with all the info to get into the place, but when I had not received the info by 3:20, I called the host/agency who was able to e-mail me the info (had to call back a couple of times, as would go directly to VM). It wasn't the easiest to get ahold of them. I would stay here again, but these things should be improved for a better stay next time!

This property is well-maintained and spacious, on a quiet street behind a resort, with lots of green space. It's located close to all the restaurants and to Collingwood main street. Would definitely recommend for groups!

Stay Away!!!
Never received the door code until 4 hours after check-in! By that time we had to book another place because we were waiting outside in the cold. Messaged the host to explain we were stuck outside and needed the door code, host responded 'you should have received it'. Didn't bother to reply with the code. Asked host for a refund, no response! Stayed at lots of VRBO properties, never had this problem. AVOID!

Clean, cozy place to stay near Blue Mountain
The place was very well kept, all necessities provided. Its not a huge place but cozy/spacious enough for a family of 7 adults. The beds could have been a bit more comfortable and we did not receive a reply from the host after sending a few messages but otherwise we really enjoyed our time and would definitely go back to stay.

Nice place to be! Communication not strong.
We had a wonderful time and the location was very good. The communication is something to learn. I don't know if it is the agent of the owner. The temperature in the house was very high. But the total score is a 9 for us!
