Definitely needs to be updated and has a musty smell in the halls leading to the rooms but it was clean. Property is stunning and when booking in the summer it feels like you have the place all to yourself.

Nice resort with lots of things to do like: hiking, biking, mini golf. Its a little outdated, pretty much everything can use a little fixing but you get what you paid for. Its not expensive so don't expect any luxury. The ski lift and zip line were fun, the views are amazing.
