Stay great, Facility great, BigSkyResort horrible

Stay and the on site staff were wonderful. The follow up post stay was anominable. Trying to get a receipt of stay has cost me an hour of my tine without resolution. Be careful with BigSkyResorts. Rude telephone staff and no interpersonal skills.

Disappointed in their customer service!

I called prior to check in to cancel, as my traveling companion became ill at the last moment. They refused to credit me. Customer Service needs improvement!

Very beautiful room and really enjoyed the hot tub in our room. The only thing I would recommend is installing an elevator in such a nice place. We are elderly, and it was not real easy to take stuff up the stairs.

This is a well-maintained and clean property. The pool and hot tub area were in excellent condition. The desk attendant was very efficient and helpful. We would definitely stay here again. The only problem we have is an air conditioner than doesn’t cool properly. The thermostat is set to 60 and it might be down to 68 at best, which is warmer than we prefer for sleeping. We will report it when we check out as it isn’t a big enough deal to be worth changing rooms

Very clean, quiet, and super nice staff. Breakfast was filling, but nothing to write home about. A bonus was the ability to use their laundry facility at no charge. The pool looked nice, but we did not use it. There is no elevator to the upper floor, so request a first floor room if you don't want to take heavy luggage up a lot of stairs.
