Great Customer Service
Pros:

Loved the hospitality of the staff! We did a girls trip for a friends birthday and reserved a family room that has bunk beds. The gentleman at check in was super nice and helped us out, as we were going to the Knight Monsters game and had a friend showing up late. Then in the morning, checking out the lady gave me a cute metal coffee mug for my friends birthday present. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Brewery on site and fire pits are so relaxing to hang out at in the cold weather. We will for sure be back. One black from State Line and easy to walk everywhere.

Love the staff there and the amenities! Great place to take family and spend it for a birthday week.
Pros:

The location and how near it was to many exciting things we wanted to enjoy and explore.

Cons:

It was all good. Only thing was the 🛌 bed as it made my back hurt a bit waking up each night.

Overall, the stay was highly enjoyable due to on-site dining options and great location.
Pros:

The on-site café offered excellent breakfast options, and the presence of a local brewery on the property was a strong added value. The brewery featured a good selection of beers, with food that was both enjoyable and reasonably priced. The hotel’s location is a major asset—situated directly across from Heavenly Village and on the state line, it provides easy, walkable access to nearby shops and restaurants.

Cons:

Nothing to dislike. The place was clean, warm, had good food, and great location. Price was also reasonable. Highly recommend.

Magical memories due to Amazing MADIE
Pros:

Been staying at Basecamp for three years (since we found this groovy place). Every time is magical, but this past stay was beyond magical!
Madie made our stay extra special.
My daughter was given the royal treatment for her special bday!
All the staff including maintenance were happy and most accommodating.
We never want to leave this place!
