Volledig ingerichte keuken Meer dan voldoende handdoeken Vriendelijk personeel Indrukwekkende entree!

Accommodatie is verouderd en heeft de nodige renovatie nodig. Overal ligt vloerbedekking. Veel trapjes, onhandig voor mensen die slecht ter been zijn. Er staat heel veel in de kamer, het is meer een appartement

Exactly what you expect from the photos

It's perfectly retro, friendly staff, great vibe of a 1970's ski lodge, but with modern amenities. The wifi was fast, which is great because cell service in the mountains isn't the greatest. We had a kitchen in our room and everything worked great, clean fridge, clean microwave, even came with plates, bowls, cups, etc. The pool and hot tub were great after a long day on our feet too! All in all, we'd stay here again without hesitation.

The only negatives I could report were 2 small things and 1 that might have been my fault - 1: the water pressure in our room wasn't amazing, it worked, but it was a little low. and 2: the AC window units were a bit noisy, but not out of the ordinary for a window unit. Other than those, I couldn't figure out how to work the sauna, but that could just be me.

Room. Pool. Game room. Deck. Coffee. Everything!

Our bed was more firm than I liked. My husband loved it. BUT the couch was a dream! So comfortable!

We brought our kids here when they were small, now we our grandchildren get to enjoy SmokeTree, too.

It’s a cozy lodge feel with beautiful views and lots of amenities.

The A/C is located in the living area making it a bit warm in the bedroom at night.
