Gas fireplace was nice but emitted a strong gas smell when in use. Bed was great and room was very nice and clean. Would have been nice to have an informative booklet/binder about the place (restaurant times and menus, where ice could be found, TV channel listings, etc. )

Shanty Creek was a great place to stay. The room was spacious, clean, and private. The restaurant on site had fun specials after 5 pm and there was a shuttle that took you to the bar in town. Pool area seemed well kept, and so did the grounds in general. I'd totally stay here again.

Our suite was gorgeous and spacious. We had 5 adults and didn't feel crowded at all. We enjoyed the dining table which allowed us to play games. The view out the windows and from the balcony were beautiful. The staff was very friendly.

There is no hot water when we arrived. Waited for the whole day, still no progress. The staff is polite but not very helpful in providing alternative solutions. So we checked out early. Expedia contacted the hotel for refund and no one is answering the email or the phone call. So yeah, I got ghosted.

I put the heat on 85 and froze all night. The water took forever to get warm...Otherwise it was a beautiful facility. I thought I had booked a room at the main lodge but this facility was 3 miles away. I got it. I booked very late.

Get what you pay for...I guess...

Upon arrival, and AFTER check-in, we were informed that that the ski facilities and onsite restaurant would be closed during our stay. Despite efforts by Hotels.com to assist, we were unable to receive any refund...even after only staying one of the two nights. Long story short, when booking with this resort, make sure that amenities (such as dining) and that facilities (such as skiing) will be available.

This is a clear cut resort stay. Not the most modern but if you're looking for a quiet place with more than just basic amenities then this is your place. The room has more than average space and is cozy. This is a great place to come back to after you've checked out the local restaurants and scenery.

NO COFFEE + FP NO WORKIE

I had heard after booking that it was dated. The good news is that our room was lovely and fresh with a beautiful view. The bad news is that I’m a coffee fiend. When traveling, I take my own Keurig pods bc there’s never enough & sometimes you get all decaf. If not enough or not Keurig, there’s always coffee in the lobby - at every hotel I’ve ever stayed. No Keurig, Folgers instant & one had to go to another building to get coffee. Oh.hell.no Booked this room bc of fireplace. Arrived early to enjoy that. FP would not work. Waited 3 hours for maintenance man to arrive & turn on timer switch behind TV on wall. All units the same, but front desk was not aware. Won’t be back.☕️🔥

Outdoor hot tubs down the whole week. Front desk staff not knowledgeable. Took them an hour to bring up more coffee packs to the room. Roads and sidewalks never plowed except the one day that had 6 inches of snow. Same price to ski for 7 hours vs 12 hours. On Wednesday night ski (which is discounted) most of the blue trails and lifts were closed.
