Beautiful property. The lodge has a huge fireplace and the warmth from it was heavily coming in from the snow. The room was pleasant. The world pool was quite small though. Nice shower and the beds were very comfortable and the bedding debine

I had a great ski weekend with stunning views and a welcoming, professional front desk staff. However, the cleanliness of the room was disappointing. Since they only clean rooms after check-out, we arrived to find crumbs on the desk and floor, a yellow stain on the sheet, and a brown stain on the carpet. The entryway flooring even stained my white socks brown, prompting us to scrub it ourselves with Clorox and room towels. It seems like staffing may be an issue, but attention to detail in room cleaning is definitely needed. Despite this, the staff was accommodating and friendly, and the location made for a fantastic ski experience.

So many issues before we even arrived. Awful front desk experiences. Terrible communication. Moguls restaurant was a mess and the food less than subpar. Zero attention to our concerns. The location was beautiful, the amenities outside were great. The price for what we experienced as guests, did NOT even come close to our expectations. I do plan on reaching out via email, but at this point- would not recommend.

Staff was great, the amenities & grounds were nice, and the restaurant onsite was good. My only complaint was we had sketchy plumbing in our room. The toilet didn’t flush well (even after I let the front desk know), and the water pressure was low in the shower. That was unfortunate and uncomfortable . The lodge is in a convenient location for sure but they should get the plumbing situated.

Picked this hotel because it had a restaurant. Than found out it was only open Wednesday through Saturday. This area was somewhat remote and had to drive 15 miles to find a restaurant.
