We enjoyed our stay. Everything was as advertised. The only complaint was there is only 1 TV in the unit. Otherwise, everything was clean and orderly. Would definitely stay again.

Hi Dawn! We are glad to hear that you and your family enjoyed your stay with us at Bright Beginnings. We will pass along your recommendation about the TV to the homeowner for consideration. Otherwise thank you for the review and please come see us again soon! Madison, Railey Vacations

Large living room, and great game room down stairs. 2 of the bedrooms upstairs are private and one has a master bath. Large hot tub and great out door space! They provided board games and some toiletries to get you started for the first night. We had a group of 8 adults and we all enjoyed our stay!

Awesome to hear Anna! We thank you for taking the time out to leave us a review and love hearing that you and your party enjoyed your stay at Bright Beginnings! Hope you’ll be making a trip back to see us again soon!

My teenage children and I were impressed and pleased with the house and the layout. Everything was as advertised on the site. Great setup for multiple kids and separate living spaces. Location was perfect for us.

We’re glad you had a great time at Bright Beginnings with your family, Patrick! For future visits, please know that you can always give us a call should you experience any disruptions from your neighbors - we’re happy to send someone to accommodate. Thanks for staying with us, and we hope to host you again soon! - Lainey, Railey Vacations

While overall appearance was fine, the windows didn't close / lock properly, bedding didn't fit, kitchen dishes / plates / pots were dirty and there was a pervasive unpleasant odor on main floor.

Thanks so much for your review, Joan - I'm sorry to hear that Bright Beginnings did not meet your expectations. We've not heard these concerns before and are glad you're bringing them to our attention. We will have our maintenance team visit the home to address the window locks and to investigate the odor you've described. While it is outlined in clean-up expectations that guests should wash any dishes they've used and replace them in the cabinets prior to departure, we understand that this does not always happen and regret that you arrived to dishes that were not washed properly. We will investigate this occurrence and have our housekeeping team ensure that the dishes as well as the bedding are in good condition for our future guests. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. I hope that you were able to enjoy aspects of your stay despite these concerns and that you will give us a chance to remedy any lingering disappointment with a fantastic stay in the future. - Lainey, Railey Vacations

We had an amazing time at Bright Beginnings. The amenities and location made it equally fun to stay in or go out. We spent our days playing pool and ping pong downstairs, soaking in the hot tub, and cooking in the well-stocked kitchen. It was also very close to local restaurants and stores in town, plus we discovered a trail near the house leading to a beautiful view of the lake!

Fantastic to hear you enjoyed your stay, John! Come back and visit again soon. - Lainey, Railey Vacations

We stayed here in early January 2021. Very nice townhouse, clean and well appointed with all the necessities including a newer hot-tub. Short walk to slopes if Main Street slope and Chair 5 are operating, if not, you need to drive 2 minutes either down to the Main lodge or up to Mountaintop. We would book here again in a heartbeat.

The view, location and overall unit was great. Decorating was nice, had all utensils needed, loved the back yard and ot was very clean. The lack of air conditioning and not knowing this made the stay less enjoyable.

We're so glad you had a great time overall, Teri!
