Kym C. said...A Great Home Away from Home Mar 20, 2017
We had a wonderful
stay; we felt like welcomed guests (sans actual host/hostess). Nicely decorated
and well appointed condo in a very convenient location by Dillon Lake.
Condo had ample parking and we liked that the condo was on the first floor,
close to the front doors for easy access, particularly when carrying snow
sports equipment. It's located close to shopping, grocery, gas stations, and
more importantly a number of different ski slopes and walking/trekking/snowshoe
trails. The bus stop was directly across the street from the condo. From there,
my teenagers could take a bus ride to Keystone, as well as access to Abasin,
Breckenridge, and others while we parents explored a snowshoe trail, walk around
Frisco, or walk around Dillon
Lake. We could walk to
restaurants, a bowling alley, and the movie theater so it all made for a
wonderful and memorable family vacation. We would love to come back for another
visit and we highly recommend staying with Karen & Barry. They were very
helpful hosts in answering questions and providing information about the area.

Our vacation has been
great; your condo was a cozy and comfortable home away from home! This is such
a great area--we went on a couple of mountain hikes, rented a speed boat at the
Dillon Marina, rented bikes to ride around the lake and spent a day at the
Breckenridge "fun park." It was great having a fully supplied kitchen
for cooking here, instead of eating out every day. Your pool was a nice way for
us to cool off and the kids loved the nice playground a few minutes' walk away.
Thanks for thinking of all the little details (instructions, tips, movies,
fans, etc.). We hope we can get out here again soon!
Robert said... Central, but not crowded Oct 8, 2016
We discovered Dillon
after a few years of fighting the crowds in Breckenridge and we'll never go
back. We love to visit, ski, and shop Breckenridge, but staying in Dillon is
perfect. This condo is on the trail by the lake, so we returned to peaceful
walks away from the crowds. The restaurants are much less crowded, very close
and pretty good, but what we enjoyed most was cooking in the unit. This condo
is very well supplied with multiple coffee options (Keurig, drip and even
French press), a crock pot, very nice pots & pans and even a griddle. One
night we grilled out on the Weber grill. We didn't think we would watch much
TV, but the 40" television and sound bar along with the selection of movies
made relaxing in the evenings very enjoyable. The building is small, so there
wasn't much competition for the pool or hot tub. Oh, yeah, the bus stop is just
across the street. We plan to come back to ski Keystone, because it's so easy
to get there. You'll love this place and the owners are very helpful.

For our family this
is the single best condo in Colorado
giving us access to the comfort, people, dining, shopping and skiing we desire.
Mark L. said...Cabin in the Mountains Feb 16, 2016
I stayed here with my
family. We loved it. It is very well done inside. Decor is great. Feels like a
cabin in the snowy mountains. Had everything we needed. Loved having a washer
and dryer in the unit. Some friends were staying down the hallway and they were
very jealous of the condo we had. Great kitchen. Great bedrooms and TVs.
Everything worked and made our ski trip perfect. Look forward to coming back
next year! No worries here. And the owners were very professional.
Nelsons said... Perfect Location-beautiful condo! Sep 12,
2015
This condo was
perfect for our family of 4. It would even work for 5 with everyone in beds.
The kids' room had 3 beds, which means no fighting for us! You can't beat the
location. It's in the center of Dillon, right above the marina. We walked to a
place to rent bikes and rode around the lake to shop around in Frisco one day
and over to breakfast in Keystone the next. Mom even took the free bus (that
stops across the street) to the outlets down the hill when she wanted a
get-away. The pool sits above the lake, with a beautiful view of the mountains.
There's even a small wading pool for younger children. The owners are very
helpful. They leave a lot of information to guide guests. With that information,
we were easily able to regulate the temperature. It was about 73 degrees when
we went to bed and 68 when we got up. When it was really hot outside, we used
the huge swamp cooler (it looked brand new) we just added ice and water. As
others have said, the condo is very well appointed with granite in the kitchen
and mountain-themed wood throughout. Oh yeah, we loved the Dillon farmers
market that was across the street Friday. We'll definitely be back.
Patricia C. said...You won't regret it! Aug 25, 2015
The location was perfect for us. The condo was smaller then
we expected but very nice and comfortable! Kitchen was fully stocked and plenty
of linens and soft towels!! A big complaint of the others we were traveling
with staying in different condos. I liked being on the first floor, never felt
unsafe. Being able to punch a code on the door was great, no worries about
loosing keys and very easy check in process. Karen was amazing and made the
whole transaction of renting easy for us. The welcome basket was a very nice
touch and much appreciated. The only one real complaint we had was the
temperature, it got very hot sometimes, especially when using the dryer.
However, in the evenings it was fine and in the day we did not hang out there
much because there is so much to enjoy outdoors. I also need to add that they
had plenty of fans in the condo. At least 4 I can remember plus a ceiling fan.
We would stay again and hope to in the future.

6, 2015
Our summer vacation based in this Dillon condo was terrific.
The Lodge at Lake Dillon was easy to find - - not right in the middle of town,
but close enough to walk to the Amphitheater, the Marina, the lakeside
playground or the various restaurants and shops nearby. The owners have used
high-quality knotty pine furniture to match the woodwork throughout the
interior; the kitchen looks brand new and has everything you need (we cooked
our own meals there most of the time). Quality bedding and towels were much appreciated.
Kids loved the bunkbeds and watching movies or playing games in the evenings.
There's not a lot of space in this condo, it's very cozy, but it has all we
hoped for in a vacation getaway - - we hope to be back soon.
Family of Faith said...Luxurious Linens! Mar 28, 2015
I've stayed in a few different VRBO properties. One of the
little secrets of many of them, especially in Breck, is that they use linens
and paper products provided by the cleaners. This often means poor quality,
hard towels and sheets as well as rough TP! This place has VERY nice sheets and
towels and high end TP (a very nice splurge!) As other reviews have noted, it's
centrally located. Ground floor makes it easy to unload/load. Waking up in the
morning to look out at the majestic snow covered mountains is a bonus. This
condo is beautifully appointed and we will definitely return. There was plenty
of room for my family of 5. Everyone had beds without having to unfold and put
up a couch hide-a-bed everyday (that gets old) The owners are personable and
great to work with and that's important, too! If you haven't rented on VRBO,
Barry & Karen will take care of you.
Ted B. said... Great Ski/Vacation Rental Apr 7,
2015
Passed this section of Dillon many times, never realized how
convenient it was to recreation and how removed it is from the hustle and
bustle. Nights in the comfortable beds were quiet and restful, the kitchen is
well stocked with condiments and staples and everything was as promised or
better. The bikeway/walking path around Dillon Reservoir is right outside the
complex, shopping is a short drive away, and several restaurants are within
walking distance. I particularly enjoyed the "local library" that the
hosts maintained as well as an after ski drink on the patio in the sun. The
hosts made us feel at home in their home. Definitely a place that we would
recommend to others.
Maggie said... Great location, Good value. Easy to work
with the owners Feb 20, 2015
We stayed 5 nights and were very well served. The condo is
very comfy and cozy which was everything we wanted after day of skiing.
Location is very convenient and easy to park and enter. The only recommendation
is better instructions regarding appliances and heating. We could not reduce
the heat the first two days but once we spoke with the owners we were able to
control for the temperature. Would have been nice to have had some sugar or
sweetner when we arrived but left many things for the next renters. Appreciated
the owners being flexible with dates. The location is quiet so sleeping in was
not a problem. Would consider renting again. We enjoyed the local breweries and
convenience of grocery.
Thrill seekers said... Great Cozy Getaway Mar 18, 2015
We really enjoyed skiing and our winter vacation in Colorado with this cozy
condo as our base. The owners provided excellent information and prompt replies
to our questions. This is a great getaway place with a well stocked kitchen!
Dillon is the best community in Summit
County to get away from
the crowds and pot shops. It is central to all of the ski resorts and this unit
is right across the street from the free bus that transports you all over the
county.
AM said... Cozy, inviting and well equipped! Sep 4, 2014
This condo is in a fantastic location. We loved how it is so
cozy, adorable and well equipped. The owners have done a great job labeling and
offering resources for local activities, attractions, dining, etc. We wish we
could have stayed longer!
