    Lots of stairs , lol. Not a big deal, just something to be aware of when booking (3 rd floor after a day of skiing, takes a minute to climb )

    Great location, wonderful breakfast and hot drinks all day long. Evening popcorn and cookies. Staff is kind and very helpful

    The staff was amazing all the way from the front desk, to the shuttle drivers, to the hot chocolate and breakfast staff, and cleaning people. Such a great trip - they made up feel like we were at home. We just booked our next trip with them in Feb 2025 (and this time we are bringing more family with us).

    Less kids in the hot tub. Love the family friendly atmosphere though! Fan in bathroom a little loud. Restaurant in lodge not open when we were there.

    Provided breakfast was perfect for us. I was a little skeptical at what might be offered, but it was great! We had breakfast there every morning for 6 days. It hit the spot! Location excellent. Ski in and ski out. Very friendly staff! Friendly free shuttle to get around ski resort. Wonderful fireplace to sit around in the lodge and drink provided hot chocolate, popcorn, and cookies after a day of skiing! Really an excellent place to stay for skiing the fish! Skiing was awesome!!!

    My family of 7 had a great time during our stay. Only some fresh snow could have made it better!

    Im sure everyone says this but an elevator would have been nice since we were on the third floor but it felt more like a home or cabin using the stairs. Only mattered when hauling our luggage but the staff was kind and offered to help with that.

    The breakfast was a nice surprise. We knew it was included but was much more than expected. LOVED the waffles. The popcorn and hot drinks post ski day was a nice touch as well. We loved the homy feel of the "Living room" area and the live music on our last night. The hot tub and sauna were also nice to have after a long day. We liked the boot and ski rooms and the readily available shuttle to the lifts in the morning.

    -No elevator, but not at all a big deal (we got in our extra steps being on the top floor!!!)

    -Large hot tub -Helpful, friendly staff -Perfect breakfast options for a light breakfast before skiing -My daughter loved the hot chocolate bar and popcorn and cookies served everyday around 3pm. -Coffee and hot water (for tea) was available all day long -Comfortable beds -Location is in walking distance to the upper village which are where all the restaurants are -Shuttle takes you right to the hill and the drivers are very helpful with how to get picked up at the end of the day from where ever you happen to be.

    Stairs- if you are older, request a lower floor room and check when the restaurant closes. It was closed in Sept when we visited. Or, bring food and picnic in the room.

    The hotel is located in a mountain village equiped for wintersports, so everything was closed when we visited. This meant that to get dinner, we had to run up and down the mountain.

    Fantastic lodge with big rooms. You can tell this hotel mainly caters for the winterseason. The jacuzzi was great for the kids. Breakfast offered a wide selection of foods and great quality. Great place for a trip to Glacier, and I would image a great place for winter sports.

    For anyone who is physically challenged or has a difficult time going up flights of stairs, there is no elevator. The staff was more than willing to take our luggage to our room. For seniors who may not be in the best of health, the stairs may present somewhat of a challenge. Also, there was very limited parking directly in front of the Lodge. However, there was plenty of parking across the street in a dirt/gravel lot.

    The main living had a great fireplace that the staff kept the fire going at all times. There was plenty of seating areas in the living room. The breakfast was very good. A variety of choices. Our room had a queen bed and a pull out sofa which was extremely comfortable. The room had a table and chairs by the window which was nice. Also the room had a refrigerator. Free Wi-Fi and lots of channels on the TV which, for us, really didn’t matter. Quick ride into Whitefish which offered lots and lots of dining options as the restaurant at the Lodge was not open due to a change in ownership but we were told it would be open in time for ski season. While the sauna was inoperable, the Lodge did have a nice size hot tub.

    Would have preferred a location closer to town, but that's not what the hotel is for. So if you're looking to ski, choose this without evening thinking. It's great for that!

    Great price, given the time of year. Location must be great for skiers but we weren't there for that. A short-ish ride into town.

    A larger room for guests at breakfast even though you are able to take your things outside, the room itself got fairly crowded. The hotel rooms are a bit outdated.

    Very scenic drive to the hotel and the staff were very friendly. A nice breakfast.
