What a beautiful place, the staff are very friendly and kind. Check in was a breeze, and the three days we stayed were wonderful. Can't wait to book our next trip.
We came for our anniversary with our kid and drive up the mountain a few miles to play in the snow ... Hoping it stays open we loved it

We enjoyed our stay at Mountain Retreat. It is like staying in a cabin in the mountains but without the extra expense of booking and cleaning fees. Also, It is close the Murphys, which has lots of dining options and skiing at Bear Valley.

Great location for a quiet and relaxing getaway. I wish I could have stayed longer!
While the property is a bit outdated, everything else more than makes up for it.
The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful.

Terrific space big enough for a family. Very well equipped and managed. There are very few if any food delivery options so make sure you go to the local grocery store first.

Nice property. Clean, comfortable & quiet. Clubhouse has a pool, hot tub, & sauna. There's also a small game room & movie room. We went for a couples get away, but will definitely be back with family. The property is close to big trees, national park, Murphy's, Columbia, Jamestown, lots to do in the area. The bar and Grill at the golf course it's nice for a casual meal.

Great mountain location! Easy and beautiful drive to Arnold. The resort was family friendly and had great amenities for the kids. Indoor pool and hot tube was great for the day it was raining. The pool table, theater and game room kept our kids entertained and happy. The lodge we stayed at was perfect for a family of 4 and located right next to a creek. The drive to get some snow play was only another 15-20 minutes. It was such a relaxing getaway for our family. We highly recommend!

Would stay again
Great location with nice amenities. The condo we stayed in was definitely run down. Beds were uncomfortable. And heat doesn’t really get to the bedrooms. Otherwise, spacious and convenient with kitchen and multiple bathrooms. Short drive to the store, restaurants and snow play.

We did not expect a 2 story condo with 1.5 baths, a kitchen and 2 balconies decks. It was beautiful in the pine trees and you could hear a pin drop. There was a gas bbq and a wonderful indoor pool and jacuzzi. It is an older property that could use some screen doors to open some sliders and a few repairs with kitchen drawers that fell out. We should have brought salt, pepper, foil as we did not bring some of these basics. Overall we had a fabulous stay and would like to return again.
