Minor issues, still great.

I’ve stayed in every room of this property over the years, including this one multiple times. It’s a great property. The rooms are quaint and well appointed. The check in process is simple, but I do miss having someone around at the property during the day when things arose like the lighter for the fireplace being empty (had to go to the store to get one myself) or there not being a corkscrew (which has always been in each room prior). The heater, for some unknown reason, also decided to not kick on during the first night and my room was 46 degrees when I woke up! Worked fine the second night. I will continue to stay here, it’s still the best property in town in my opinion.

Nothing spectacular to report besides they could do a little better. We understand it’s off season but the quality of care was not present. Holes in the towels and bed sheets, out of date kitchen plus the hand written label for the conditioner and shampoo. Not what we saw in the pictures on the ad.

We loved our stay! I will say, booking on other sites, as we did, can be misleading as some of the features for the rooms aren’t accurate. But the staff was very accommodating and we will definitely come back again

Stayed a night in the Pinion cabin for a quick getaway with my husband. It was clean, simple and perfect for an overnight stay. It was outdated but in the way you would expect a cozy mountain cabin. The carpet was super clean, the linen was clean and super comfy. Fireplace was perfect. Only upgrade I’d suggest would be the bathroom. The shower was an outdated stall that was not very inviting but overall I’d stay again . It was perfect , romantic and cozy.

Absolutely love Fireside Inn! There was a storm in the area causing the shutdown of all power on the mountain but my room was still cozy warm due to their propane heat source! Also had hot water during the electricity shutdown. Highly recommend!

This was a very cozy cabin that was close to a lot in town making it easy to walk to and fro. The only complaint I have is the bathroom was small and I felt a bit cramped in there which is funny to me since I am only 5'5". I would come again but I might check out a different room.
