WOW! The condo was everything we expected and more. Andrew and Jill have done a great job updating the place while still keeping the mountain charm.
The location is excellent, close to the Mountain Inn and ski slopes. A short drive took us to the tennis courts, our main focus of the trip, to the pool (we were glad for the passes Andrew provided for the outdoor pool), and of course to the spa.
Although the resort boasts that resort guests get free access to tennis courts, and a slight savings on meals among other savings, we found the savings from the condo more than off set any additional charges (except the splurge of the spa! - but we knew what we were getting into there!)
Although the beds came in a close second for comfort, the highlight of the trip was the well stocked kitchen. For a rental, I've never experienced the quality and array of kitchen gadgets provided. I love to cook and wasn't limited by the pots and pans provided. Cleaning supplies and paper products were also available and extensive so that's an expense you can forgo when renting this unit!
The bedrooms are a nice size... with dresser space to unpack, and the great room is large and open. Cable TV and a DVD will keep you busy on any rainy days.
Wintergreen is a beautiful place in the summer and I'd encourage anyone to take a long weekend or a week if you can spare it, and relax in the cool mountain air. We even kept two pre-teens active and happy!
We found the tennis pros knowledgeable and helpful and would recommend a lesson or two on the 12 outdoor clay courts or the 3 indoor hard surface courts! Ask for Thomas or Ryan!
All is all the trip was a huge success and one we will repeat as soon as possible.
Two thumbs up!
