We enjoy going to Wisp and the convenience of having the ski locker and restaurants close in town. Property itself is older and could use some updating.

The rooms were decent for a ski resort hotel. It was pretty outdated and a little dirty though. The view was pretty good. The pool was nice. Liked the heated element of the pool. The pool bathrooms were terrible. Extremely old and stinky. The ceiling tiles were broken and worn out. The property could use a little time for a renovation that improves the living conditions. The staff was friendly and helpful. The tubing was really fun to do. Overall, I would say this was a good trip and I would come again soon for the tubing and skiing, but not staying the hotel.

The room was big and clean! We had a great view of the mountain which was cool to watch once we were done skiing for the day. They had coffee out in the lobby all day, breakfast in the morning, and a fire pit going at night. It was a great atmosphere!

Biggest complaint is the late check-in time of 5PM. It is completely unreasonable, especially after a long day of travel. Rooms and furniture feel very dated, though they appeared clean. Breakfast was limited to cereal, muffins, bagels, juice/coffee/milk and nothing more.

The lodge was close to my friends location in the area. I wasn't pleased with the breakfast. I wasn't able to see choices before 9am. I was there between 9:15am to 10am. Everything was practically gone. There was bagels, bread, cereal, coffee and juice. I didn't see any hot foods.
