Shanty Creek was a great place to stay. The room was spacious, clean, and private. The restaurant on site had fun specials after 5 pm and there was a shuttle that took you to the bar in town. Pool area seemed well kept, and so did the grounds in general. I'd totally stay here again.

This place is OLD AND probably hasn’t been updated from the 70’s. But it was clean and was a place to rest our heads.

Get what you pay for...I guess...

Upon arrival, and AFTER check-in, we were informed that that the ski facilities and onsite restaurant would be closed during our stay. Despite efforts by Hotels.com to assist, we were unable to receive any refund...even after only staying one of the two nights. Long story short, when booking with this resort, make sure that amenities (such as dining) and that facilities (such as skiing) will be available.

NO COFFEE + FP NO WORKIE

I had heard after booking that it was dated. The good news is that our room was lovely and fresh with a beautiful view. The bad news is that I’m a coffee fiend. When traveling, I take my own Keurig pods bc there’s never enough & sometimes you get all decaf. If not enough or not Keurig, there’s always coffee in the lobby - at every hotel I’ve ever stayed. No Keurig, Folgers instant & one had to go to another building to get coffee. Oh.hell.no Booked this room bc of fireplace. Arrived early to enjoy that. FP would not work. Waited 3 hours for maintenance man to arrive & turn on timer switch behind TV on wall. All units the same, but front desk was not aware. Won’t be back.☕️🔥

Outdoor hot tubs down the whole week. Front desk staff not knowledgeable. Took them an hour to bring up more coffee packs to the room. Roads and sidewalks never plowed except the one day that had 6 inches of snow. Same price to ski for 7 hours vs 12 hours. On Wednesday night ski (which is discounted) most of the blue trails and lifts were closed.
