We were here 5 nights.
Garbage shouldn't be the responsibility of the guest. Large containers should be available for use at the site with a weekly pickup. Other places we've stayed at in the area provided enclosed bear proof enclosures. We've never encountered a trash fee. Couple of sauce pans would be nice. There were plenty of large pots(3) but no sauce pans.
Other than that we really enjoyed our time in the rental.

We were not familiar with the Roku TV, but made the best of it.
I had to tighten the screws on the front door knob. (front porch) They were very loose, but all is good now.
I tightened the screws on the refrigerator handle. They were loose, but all is good now.
The downstairs bed was extremely comfortable!
The road leading into the property is in pretty bad shape. Not sure who maintains that road.
It was just the right size house for the two of us. We enjoyed our stay.

The property was just what we were looking for. Something small (perfect for a family of 4), private and close to the ski resort on sugar mountain. The place was very clean and had everything we needed. The gas fireplace was a great feature. The kids enjoyed sleeping in the loft. The shower had great water pressure. It was mid March and we got to see some snow flurries. The kids were very excited. We would definitely recommend if to others and possibly come and stay there again.
