Danielle was amazing, she let us check in early and there was a really bad snowstorm coming so she even offered us a late check-out! The snowstorm was so bad that we ended up leaving a night early but the gesture was so nice! The house was absolutely STUNNING, the hot tub was so nice! Zero complaints, would definitely go back!

We had a bachelorette party here this past weekend and it was perfect! The space was everything and more, she allowed us to set up decorations and the bride loved it. Danielle was flexible and responsive to my questions, I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay at.

We had a great weekend at Danielle's! Close to skiing and town, and we enjoyed the hot tub and garage/game room at the house! The house had everything we needed, plus plenty of extra towels, blankets and pillows. We loved being able to all hang out upstairs, and everything was beautifully decorated. Thank you!

Staying at Hilltop Hollow was exactly the unwinding relaxing experience we were looking for during winter break. We had 2 families with 4 kids between us staying, and it was the exactly the right amount of space for us. We enjoyed playing in the snow and exploring the wooded property and was conveniently located very close to Schuss for skiing. Everything was extremely clean, bathrooms, kitchen, and hot tub which made it all the more enjoyable. Danielle was very responsive and helpful and a really great host. The space has been carefully curated with everything you need for a wonderful vacation.

We had a great stay! The place was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and well equipped. The location was convenient, and everything we needed was close by. The host was responsive and easy to communicate with, which made check-in and the whole stay smooth. Would definitely recommend and would happily stay here again.

Our stay was nothing short of excellent! This is a great location. Private, but still very close to the Schuss Mtn entrance. The place is very clean, and the accommodations exceeded expectations. We hope we can visit again in the future!
