We stayed in the suite with a kitchenette. It was very clean and looked like a newly remodeled bathroom with walk in shower. We loved waking up to the view in the mountains and even saw a deer grazing by. It’s pet friendly which was a bonus.

Great last minute stay
Ours was a last minute stay late at night. We were given quick and detailed instructions on how to gain access to our unit, plus it was easy to find. Only 1 1/2 mikes miles from the ski resort. Our room was very spacious and very clean. The bed and linens were super comfortable. The only con was a lack of water pressure in the shower, so it just took a little longer to get the conditioner out of my hair, lol. We would definitely stay again when in the area.

You drive up to the lodge to check in and then back to the motel. Nice big room with a comfortable queen down stair and a queen bed in the loft. Mystery stains in the comforter tho. Both upstairs and downstairs beds. Sheets seemed clean but the comforters weren’t very comfortable

Really enjoyed our stay. However, the towels weren’t clean… that led to some other doubts about what else wasn’t clean…. But the rest of the stay was nice. The food was amazing!

Excellent!
The management is top notch! Very friendly and eager to make your stay the best. The cabin was as described. Plenty of toiletries, bath towels, etc. The kitchen provided all the necessities. The only things we noticed missing were a mixing bowl and measuring cups.

We stayed in cottage D, everything was good. I have never seen this in any hotel I've ever stayed at, there was a black wash cloth n on it was a little strip where it said makeup! This is brilliant. Every place shld do this. No stains on a white cloth. Way to go Alpine village. Loved it here.
Plenty of towels.

The check in was so irritating! It’s not at the place you’re staying at. It’s 2 miles up the road and hard to find! Hot tub was cold!
