So-Close Chalet - Easy walk to Bryce Resort!

So-Close is a traditional ski chalet within a short walk to the Bryce Resort lodge, ski slopes, bike park, and the Sky Bryce airport. Leaf cover in the summertime somewhat obscures the view of the Resort lodge & ski slopes, but fully visible in wintertime. The great room's huge glass doors, windows, deck create the sense tree house living. Please note that access to this ski chalet includes five steps up to entry level from the parking area, and the main floor is another 13 steps up from the entry level. Located within the Bryce Resort community, this chalet's convenience to the Resort can't be beat at a 1/4 mile mostly flat stroll to the Resort's main lodge and ski/bike lifts, and a 1.5 mile drive to the Basye Community Store.

Please review the listing photos carefully. Drone photos show proximity to the Resort. Many features of this traditional chalet have been updated with a modern look and features, but retains its rustic charm. It's a perfect location for families and groups that value the flexibility of not needing a car.

FEATURES & AMENITIES:
The open, spacious great room includes a dining area and living room with a wood stove. Firewood is provided from late fall through early spring. The updated kitchen dons white shaker cabinets, stainless appliances, and black granite countertops. It's conveniently located adjacent to the great room and dining area and includes basic cookware, tableware, appliances, and a basket-style drip coffee maker (filters provided, but please bring your favorite grind). The dining area seats six at the table and another four at the kitchen bar. The main floor also includes two bedrooms with queen beds and full bath. The spacious loft looks out through the great room's huge windows and has three twin beds, a full bath, and a reading/gaming nook with a couch. The finished basement includes a Foosball table, a multi-game classic-style two-player high-top game console, an office-style desk for those working remotely, a full-size sleeper sofa, and an unfinished laundry room with full size washer & dryer. Sleeps 7.

The chalet is supplied with bedding (pillows, bedspreads, blankets), fresh bed linens, one towel set per max occupants, one travel-size bar soap per max occupants, two rolls toilet paper per bathroom, two dishwasher tabs, five trash bags, one bath trash bag per bathroom, one paper towel roll, one kitchen dish towel, one travel-size dish soap, and one scrubby pad. We encourage guests with large groups, or who are staying several nights, or who are heavy users of consumable supplies to bring extra supplies or purchase them at the local Basye Community Store.

The flat screen Smart TV allows guests to log into popular streaming apps, and high-speed 50mbps WiFi internet is sufficient for working, streaming, and limited gaming. There's a DVD player for movie night and a wide selection of DVDs (free to borrow during your stay) at our Reception Office.

Pets are NOT permitted.

This is a Self-Check-In unit. You'll receive check-in instructions via email seven days prior to arrival (or immediately if booking within seven days) that include the property's address, driving directions, a unique Key Code, and other important information.
