Best place to stay in the mountain!!!
My family and I truly enjoyed our stay here. There was everything we needed from all the bathrooms beds and amenities!!! The hot tub was a much needed bonus after hours of skiing on the slopes! The deer as well did not disappoint! They were waiting for us when we woke up to feed and before the sun went down! I highly recommend this property! Also definitely make sure you are traveling with 4WD or AWD cause you definitely need it to get up the mountain when the temperatures drop and the snow fall!!!
