"The property is ideally located and well maintained. It is close to the Village, and far enough away to feel a sense of seclusion. There is an opportunity to refresh the interior of the property, but the rooms are well kept and very clean. Durign my time I did not partake in the hot tub or use the BBQ, but on my next visit, I will! Having the kitchen is convenient, especially when one feels snacky at night :)"

"Quite possibly the worst, most unsafe hotel experience I have ever had, which includes hotels in India and hostels in Spain and Italy, as well as many fine properties as well. We discussed using our fireplace with the manager, who gave us no reason to doubt doing this; having a fire is one of the highlights of staying in the mountains in winter. However, once we started the fire, the smoke alarm in the master bedroom went off, despite the flue being open and several windows being cracked. When we called the manager and asked him to take a look, he was unwilling to do so. Instead, he offered us to change rooms, in the middle of the night, with young children. Later after discussing this with other folks in town, the consensus was that the back flow of smoke into the room was likely due to a dirty, poorly maintained chimney. My children weee frightened by the smoke entering our room. It was so bad that we took the logs and embers outside and disposed of them in the snow, to remove all trace of smoky wood from the room. The poor maintenance and attitude of the property were in my opinion unconscionable. I don’t recommend staying here, and certainly don’t use the fireplace. "

"Toilet was leaking and the bath tub had water in it when we arrived"

"My husband and I recently spent two nights in the Honeymoon Cottage to celebrate our first anniversary, and it was a wonderful experience. The grounds are incredibly charming—the pond and string lights create such a "cute" and cozy atmosphere. We absolutely loved having our own private hot tub and were impressed by the cleanliness; the cottage was tidy, and the bedding smelled fresh. The staff member who checked us in was also very welcoming. We have just two small suggestions for improvement: the area rug in our unit was a bit dated and could use a refresh, and the indoor lighting was quite bright. A dimmer or a floor lamp would have really helped set a more relaxed mood in the evenings. We did hear some inappropriate noises from our neighbors during our stay, that is obviously out of the management's control. We loved the easy check-out! Being able to just send a text while departing made our morning so much smoother. Overall, we had an amazing time and will definitely be recommending The Grey Squirrel to our friends and family!"

"I had to shovel three foot high snow 10 feet long to get to the front door. I also had to shovel another six feet to get to the stairs as well. Luckily I brought a shovel because if I hadn’t I couldn’t have gotten into the place. This was after being told the room wasn’t ready and was being worked on. Once inside it was a Time Machine back the 80s everything was extremely outdated. The only plus was location and view"
