The staff were all helpful, friendly, and kind. Our room was very clean. We really enjoyed our time in the pool and hot tub, had it all to ourselves! The food at the restaurant was delicious and more unique than regular bar food. I'd recommend and would go back if in the area again.

We had a great stay at Whitecap. The 3 Queen Suite was perfect for our group, plus our dog Murphy. It was very clean and ready upon our arrival. They did their best to keep lifts open and skiing available despite the very very cold temps. The staff was friendly and Denali was a highlighted staff member throughout the weekend that we saw! Kudos to her hard work. We hope to do another weekend stay in the future here.
