In need of repair… closest door… bed frameqqa was way too big for room. Lots of stubbed toes and chins!
Great place to stay at reasonable price. Staff could have bee trained to be more courteous with the guests. It was little disappointing when I had to report issues with oven in my room and the staff was too rude to be dealt with!
Otherwise things were really great!
This was obviously more of a winter resort as the rooms we stayed in didn’t have AC. My bad for not looking at the map as there is no food or shopping within 12 km.
Moutain views were nice, long drive up to get to the resort from Golden, rooms didn’t have fitted sheets which was different. Had bear spray at the front desk which was nice. Had a good time exploring the area.
Visted in September. Lovely area to hike in, with a bear refuge just up the mountain side (hikable if you want, or accessible via a reasonably priced chairlift). Down the mountain are a couple of nice lakes.
The room was spotless and well maintained, with a large bathroom and small but functional kitchenette.
Good views from the balcony. The gym, sauna and steam room looked clean and well maintained but beyond an initial inspection, we didnt actually get around to using them as 'the mountains were calling'!
Lovely quiet and chilled location with Mountain View’s. The flat had a wide range of amenities making our stay both comfortable and relaxing. A short 15 minute drive into Golden and the highway, so easy access to reach locations.

Disliked: Amenities
One brd suite was nice. Could use duvet cover rather than 2 flat sheets over duvet and flat sheet on bed rather than fitted. Tv in bedroom had no cable box. Carpets were stained. No restaurants open on property. Elevator not working lots of stairs
Resort was ok this is a strata resort, room was good patio off bedroom was great. Not a lot of eating places up there which was inconvenient.
Resort indicated hot tub, absolutely fail on this it was disgustingly dirty. This resort would be much more appealing if there was some upgrades.
Beautiful area but the property needs maintenance. Would also liked to have known that dining/bar was unavailable as were extra activities even though there was a resort fee.
The room was fine. The elevator was not in service for the 3rd floor room, all the restaurants closed at 5 and was the last day they were open for the season. No place for even coffee the next AM. This was never advertised prior to booking.
