The lodge was very nice, very clean and a great location. Check in was super easy and we had no issues with that piece. Our only negatives are I had a difficult time sleeping because the mattress was extremely firm. My wife thought there could be a couple wall hangings to make the room have a warmer feel. Overall an outstanding stay.

Awesome stay in the Ski Lodge! We enjoyed the views of the wooded area and the quiet retreat feeling. The hot tub and rooftop area was an added sweet touch. Really enjoyed the look and feel of the room, the beds were also very comfy!
