Our room was excellent, but the whole vibe of this place is so sweet! They have popcorn, cookies and hot chocolate out for apres ski. Everyone hangs out in the commons area in front of a cozy fireplace. They have yummy food and drinks too! Their hot tub is hot and it’s the perfect place to heat up after a chilly day on the mountain! I’ll be coming back!
