The staff at the Kandahar were top notch! The property is not the newest on the mountain, but they addressed any issues that we had. We had rowdy neighbors on our first night and we called down to the front desk and they shut them down immediately! I would gladly stay here again!

Older but well maintained lodge. In-house shuttle was a lifesaver. Great breakfast. Very friendly and helpful staff. Only complaint was that we were expecting the kitchenette to include a stove. It did not, so we had to eat out every single day at some point, which meant a drive into town and a waitlist most nights.

Perfect getaway

The check in didn’t provide much information but the shuttle drivers were full of great information about the skiing, the lodge and things to do in town. Chris and Blake knew all the best stuff. The lodge had great amenities like massage and hot tub which we enjoyed after skiing into and out of the lodge for full days on the slopes.

After staying here for 4 nights, I would definitely recommend Kandahar Lodge. All of the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable when asking questions about the ski resort. The rooms were nice and everything was well kept. Breakfasts were simple but offered something for everyone and did the job. The jacuzzi and steam room were a nice bonus!

We loved our stay here. The lodge is adorable and perfect for a ski getaway. Breakfast is high quality and better than most continental breakfasts. My kids loved the mini Nutella spreads. The rooms were perfect and as described. The resort was true ski in ski out and they also offered a convenient shuttle to the base lodge. Hot chocolate and popcorn snack was an awesome bonus every afternoon. We will definitely consider coming back.
