I often book the Pepper Tree when I ski at Palisades. It is clean and conveniently located. Walls are a little thin, so sometimes you can hear your neighbor if they are being loud, but generally most people are just there to sleep :)

Booked this room for our niece and her partner and they loved everything about the room and their view from the top floor! Staff was extremely helpful and kind and made it easy for me to reserve & pay for them for the holidays!! Started snowing on 24th Dec and made for a beautiful Holiday together! Great location...could not be happier. Thank you!!

The room was ok. I spent new years there maybe that’s why cleaning assistance wasn’t available but besides that we had a great time. Front desk guy was really nice. Restaurants are close by, coffee place and snowboard shop across the street. You get what you pay for.

It was an average stay. The bed was a little hard. It was difficult to go down to the office since it seemed to always be closed. The staff was friendly on check in but we didn't really see them again. We could have texted the staff with questions and requests but never did. The town is very cute with good dining options and was very walkable from the inn.

The room was very clean. The outside area is very dated and not kept as well. Areas are roped off for safety. The woman who checked us in was not pleasant. This inn could be charming. It’s in a wonderful location with the lake and walking paths and restaurants nearby.
