This definitely our family’s new winter retreat.

Suites were large and adjoining studio was great for extended family. Location was perfect for ski in and out and amenities such as pool, hot tub and arcade were enjoyed by all. Office and maintenance staff were amazing.

We love this place, but they could use a few more perks to make the stay more enjoyable.
Pros:

The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

There was a leak in our room. They offered for us to move to a new room, but no compensation.
The tv didn't have a working guide and there were no channels for kids as there have been in past years. There used to be movies to borrow. That was a really nice touch.

Pros:

Unit was spacious, kitchenette well-equipped. Staff was friendly.

Cons:

Nice to have a pool, however the hot tub was disappointing since only one jet was working, and it was not very strong.
Also, I think the place was ski-in/out but this was not clear.

Room had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, will definitely consider this location again.
Pros:

The one bedroom suite was spacious and had everything we needed for our girls getaway. The location was great for our weekend plans - close to Vetta and other activities that we had planned. Decor is dated, but comfortable. We didn’t use the pool or other facilities.
