Charming older place with beautiful grounds.

Older resort but has a lot of charm. Because it's older the lobby has that older smell to it when you walk in. Parts could be updated to some of the buildings. We rented an economy room with twin beds and a bunker up top in the Lodge building. The room was clean and cozy with comfortable beds and pillows, bathroom, table and TV with mini fridge and coffee maker and closet with ironing board . The grounds and view were gorgeous. We ate at the main restaurant and it had a cozy feel and pretty good food overall. We would for sure stay again.

I arrived after dark around 9pm with my 16 year old daughter. Check in went ok - upon arrival to the building with our 'economy' room, things went wrong. The room next to ours had old metal blinds that were 'shredded' and falling apart. The metal threshold at the entry door was tipping and moved when you were walking in and out. The blinds in our room were in bad shape. 'Economy' room was meant to indicate 4 twin beds instead of double beds - which was fine. The smoke detector was missing, likely because someone wanted to smoke at some point. Then the heat didn't work - called the front desk - they said they were sending a guy to come fix it. A guy came promptly - no uniform - dirty clothes with large stain on his pants - he quickly said - no, the heat doesn't work and I should call the front desk for another room. He was quite odd and lingered looking at me inappropriately then left. I started feeling more and more uncomfortable. Front desk said they would send a guy to help us move to another room. I waited a couple minutes then my daughter and I started packing up to load our truck, knowing it would be in another building. The previous 'guy' seemed to be living in our building and was sitting on a lawn chair just watching us load our truck in the dark. The sidewalk had lots of cracks and settling - very hazardous. Entire building was very run down.

It is a beautiful location!! The views are amazing. I was traveling with a pet so in order to accommodate that, I could not get the Expedia rate. I actually paid $100 more. They have special rooms for pets and I guess they don’t think your room should be nice when traveling with one. One bed sagged so bad it was hard to get in and out of. We killed numerous spiders and there were other bugs flying around. The building needs a paint job. The paint is pealing and flaking. I was very disappointed in the overall condition of the place.

This property has so much potential. You walk in to a grand entry with huge windows overlooking the changing leaves over the ski hills, but there were no lights on and the windows were filthy. We ate at the Duck Blind restrestaurant. They didn't have a table ready by the windows and tried to sit us in the dark corner. When a few guests left, we asked for their table. They cleaned it off and gave it to someone else. So we just sat at the bar. We ordered the boneless chicken wings. They came out looking like a cheap bage of Tyson chicken nuggets. When we paid for our meal we did not leave a tip. We later checked our card and found a $16 added charge. This place was a terrible experience to our beautiful weekend. What a shame. We are at trestrestaurant

Bait and switch! Reserved King rooms (2) got rooms with 2 beds each. Wasn’t told about this at checkin. Desk was closed by the time we finished dinner at their restaurant. Contacted Travelocity and they tried to contact manager several times, no call back. Color tour for party of 6 and dinner for party of 7 was great. Cement walkway to rooms is a hazard at night. Rooms are dated and hallways are rough looking. Hotel begs you to leave good review at checkin. Had issue with key, didn’t get to see room until after desk was closed for the night.
