Wonderful

We did a late check in after a snowboarding trip and the manager at the front desk was very nice and gave us a lot of attention! It was really cold that night unusual weather around 22 and he also provided an portable heater for us. Thank you for your patience and kindness.
This place is clean and very cozy. I love that they have a kitchen with stove, refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker and kitchen wares.Eulyses, the front desk guy is really nice. I will definitely comeback and I recommend this place. Cheers
*Pros-
Overall the stay was pretty good. Ulysses at the front desk was a great help! When my wife and I checked in we did not have any firewood and he not only gave us for some firewood, he even carried it to the room for us! He was more than helpful! The cabin was nice and upgraded with new cabinets, countertops, flooring, & carpet throughout the cabin.
*Cons-
When we used the fireplace, the smoke did not all go up it, but rather spilled into the room and we had to open the front door to let the smoke out. I double checked the flu and it was indeed open and there was smoke coming out the top of the chimney. This most likely is due to the inside at the chimney needing to be bored out and cleaned so the smoke can be drawn out of the fireplace and not go into the living room.
I also noticed when using the toilet and leaned over,.. the toilet leaned with me lifting off the floor. Apparently it was not bolted to the floor.
The ice machine on site was broken and we could not use it.
The place definitely has potential once the owner addresses these issues.
Location is nice - close enough to Boulder Bay and to the village and resorts.
Room was comfortable, really enjoyed having a fireplace. Bed was super comfy too. Wifi signal was mostly consistent throughout the stay. Friendly staff. Would stay again

I really enjoyed how easy and simple checking in and out was! Everything in the cabin was nicely cleaned and layed out perfectly. Definitely would recommend staying here again.
This place was wonderful, cozy and comfortable. The standard room was spacious and even included a sofa bed. The only downside was the door lock and key, which gave us some trouble. Additionally, the shower was not quite large and lacked enough space to move comfortably, causing water to splash onto the floor. Overall it was a nice place to stay and would recommend.
We stayed here in 2024 just for a get away after we got married. I booked for a few days and then called to see if we could get the same room. The staff is so accommodating and we really enjoy staying at this resort.
