What a darling, quaint, convenient place & the proximity to gondola one was amazing. Totally loved the giant hot tub pool & ski/boot storage. The breakfast option was a bit unclear - I never used the option but would have liked to. Parking was excellent. Staff were very nice.

More than pleased!

The staff was delightful! The bed was very comfortable. The room was very clean, and service was excellent throughout the stay. The lodge itself is very fresh and pleasant considering the age. The location is absolutely perfect. The heated pool on a winter night is unforgettable.

The staff was excellent, very friendly and they made our room available a bit early which was nice. The room was a bit dated, found some hairs in the shower and the window blind could not go up or down. But the area is nice very walkable to everything in Vail Village and parking was a breeze.

A little tired, but great location. The property is a little tired, but still quaint and "good enough" for the price for a beautiful and inspiring couple of days in Vail. Right next to the old Vail Village, but removed and protected enough to be quiet and peaceful. Right at the base with great access to trails. No food service and pretty poor coffee in the morning. No major complaints - just make sure your expectations are not upscale Vail with everything ship-shape and new.

Not a Summer Hotel

The hotel does not have air conditioning. It needs refurbishing. Housekeeping opened my door on two separate occasions when the do not disturb sign was out. I use noise canceling earbuds for phone calls and did not hear them knock. Room was quite noisy as windows needed to be open and a 10 year old box fan put into one window to cool down the room. No valet, to park car you have to get card from front desk, open lot gate with card, park and return card. Not pleasant after dance performance late at night in rain. Pool is kept at 90 degrees F so not a place to cool off during day. I would not stay there again in the summer. Ski season might be different.

We liked the very friendly staff and the ambience of the hotel. The room was dark and got very hot despite the fans in the rooms. I would have preferred a ceiling fan.
