Great spot, perfect location- quick walk to restaurants, nice lake viewing. Loved taking a hot tub after a day in the slopes. Super welcoming staff. Only issue in the hotel rooms is the walls are pretty thin so can hear neighbors a bit too well

I didnt like the fact that we were told to stay there by Expedia and when we arrived at 855 we were told by the woman inside that she had already done her audit and we couldnt rent a room because no one had booked one for us. I wound up doing my own leg work at 11 at night and getting us a room at the holiday in resort. They were amazing.

Dear Brian,I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced during your recent stay at our hotel. I understand the frustration that can arise from a miscommunication, and I'm truly sorry for the inconvenience caused.Upon reviewing your case, it seems there was a breakdown in communication between Expedia and our Property Management system, leading to the unfortunate situation you encountered. Our channel manager failed to deliver your reservation in a timely manner, which resulted in our front desk associate being unaware of your booking when you arrived.I want to assure you that this is not the standard of service we aim to provide, and I deeply regret the impact it had on your experience. We are actively addressing the issue with our systems to prevent such incidents from occurring in the future.I appreciate your understanding and want to thank you for taking the time to bring this matter to our attention. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve our processes and deliver a better experience for our guests.I'm pleased to hear that you found accommodation at the Holiday Inn Resort, and I hope you had a pleasant stay there. Should you consider giving us another chance in the future, I assure you that we will do our utmost to make amends for this lapse in service.Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Amazing location, cute cabins
We've stayed here a few years ago and liked it enough to go back. Great location right on the lake and right next to the Village. Staff are very nice. We stayed in one of the cabins, plenty of privacy and very spacious. There was a nice pool and hot tub on property perfect for the cold nights. Only issue is the furniture is dated, beds are creaky and not too comfortable. Would be great if there were hooks and shelves for winter jackets and ski gear. But for the price and convenience it's a good option.

Room was large and clean. Very good location, right on the lake. Plenty of parking. Has coffee maker, fridge and microwave. The negative thing was the air conditioning. We went in winter. The heat was turned on very high in the room and there was no way of reducing it. Finally we opened the window to let the room cool.

When you read the reviews about the beds- believe them. Our bed was slanted down to our head, squeaked with very little movement, and quite actually, was the worst bed I’ve em slept on. And believe me, I’m not bougie. I’ve slept on floors with more flexibility. The heater worked which was great, but it worked so well that it wouldn’t turn off, and our room was 85 degrees the entire night. We had to open our windows while it snowed to get the room to be tolerable. The room was clean and it smelled good, we had hygiene needs taken care and they let us check in early. However, we left a day early, cause..no. Couldn’t do it anymore.
