The property was beautiful. We didn't know what we were getting when we booked, but we got a beautiful 2 story, 2 bedroom condo, fully stocked with everything you could ever need - including coffee. (not food, of course.) It was very clean, the beds were comfortable, and it was much quieter than it would have been if we had stayed in the resort rooms, just a block up the road. We had full access to resort amenities, and easy parking, transportation up the hill, and a quiet place to sit by the fireplace and watch the snow fall. We definitely plan to come back again, and recommend it to our friends.

This stay was the biggest waste of money. The room was awful, the bed was SO uncomfortable, the walls were paper thin and could hear everything happening outside and above us. The cleaning people stole some of our food, the cleanliness of the room was subpar at best. My suggestion is do not waste your money, stay somewhere else!
