Family vacation

This beautiful home allows our family to stay together and enjoy the exquisite mountains of Red River. The home is so comfortable and well equipped. We loved cooking in the kitchen and playing games around the large dining room table. This location is close to trails for hiking as well. Thank you Marie, for sharing your home with us!

Fantastic!

This was our favorite house, by far. The details like the coffee provided, soft sheets, enough dinnerware and serving pieces to feed all of Red River in style, paper goods, spacious rooms…I could go on. But the view and watching the sunrise on the front porch was the best!

Ski Trip 2025

Very nice house. Three families, six adults and four kids. Kids loved the upstairs room with four twin beds and their own area to hang out. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking pans and plenty of dishes. We cooked every night for five nights. Would recommend and would stay again.Owners were very nice and promptly replied to every email and text.
