We love to stay at Snowriver. The rooms are comfortable, clean, and cozy. I love the updates, but that it still feels like a classic ski lodge I remember as a kid. Pool area and sauna were clean and enjoyable.

I paid full price in spring. There were no employees to be found. The one kind employee, Joey, eventually made it to the front desk after I called the remote reservations number. Joey was apologetic. The parking lot is a disaster. Other than Joey and the fact that the room I stayed in was very nice, the bar was not attended the breakfast hours were not convenient, and as I described previously, it was a ghost town. Never again.

Rooms were clean and updated. Walls are thin so we could here everyone! Pool and hot tub were nice. Had to walk to clubhose to use but just across the parking lot. Definitely will recommend.

Great value for the $$ mid-week. Room was very comfy and clean. Right near slope (and close to other ski resorts). Late check in was inconvenient and they won't allow even an hour early even though they had rooms empty and clean. Worth $100 for a night though. Nice pool, sauna, and hot tub area and small bar in lounge area.

A good place to stay right on the ski hill. Pool and hot tub are convenient for the kids. Rooms are dated and need work despite the recent face lift but other options in the area are limited.
