This was a very annoying stay. We were greeted by massive indoor construction inside common areas. The unit was not affected inside, but problems occurred immediately. My spouse opened the cupboard door and a cup fell out and broke! It was hot in the unit, so I went looking for the AC. There was none. Window unit promised, but all we found was a portable unit that required frozen blocks that were not to be found. (the common area was air conditioned for the workers). The refrigerator was running, but the icemaker was off--no ice in trays either. Opened the door to the balcony and turned on the ceiling fans and managed to get the temp down to 78--not great for sleeping. The final problem was the floor. My wife walked to the kitchen barefooted and stepped in the tub to find black dirt from the bottom of her feet. We were charged 100 cleaning fee and were required to take out the garbage and run the dishwasher. What do they clean (apparently not the floor)?!! The bedroom blind jammed when I raised it to open the window for ventilation, so people could see in from the hall.The view from the porch was great. Probably fine for winter use, but not suitable for summer.
The condo was perfect for our needs. Location is easy access to skiing and the village. Bonus was the cubbies and all the hooks in the hallway for coats, helmets, ski poles, gloves etcâŠ. We could have used a tea pot or instant hot, but otherwise the kitchen was really well stocked. This condo is a top pick at the Mountain Lodge.
The condo was very clean, beautiful views from balcony. It was rainy the weekend we were there. It was also the last weekend of biking there at Snowshoe. There weren't too many restaurants open at the The Village, but there was no way of knowing otherwise. I'd recommend you bring some dinners to cook yourself. The only recommendation I'd have for the condo is a black out curtain for the bedroom window, the room stays a little to lit up from the lighted hallway outside the bedroom window. The bedroom also stays a little warm, even with the fan on and leaving the window open in the living room. It's design flaws, not an issue that can necessarily be helped by the owners of the property. Overall, we had a great little getaway, my husband and I!
We had a great stay. The place had a beautiful view and was freshly decorated.
The only issue I had was when I pulled the sheets down I saw hairs on the sheets and pillow case. I also found almonds from the people before us on the floor under the kitchen counter. Other than that it was a great stay. Thank you
We have stayed at the Mountain Lodge several times and this has been our favorite room thus far. The view is beautiful and the renovations nice. I really liked the addition of the bar in the kitchen area. Many rooms have tables across the room and this bar made preparing meals and eating much easier.
The hosts were also very communicative and responded quickly to all inquiries. My only complaint would be the WiFi, we had trouble connecting while in the room, but only on certain devices. All in all we had a great time and will definitely look to see if this room is available for future trips to Snowshoe. Canât beat the location of Mountain Lodge!
