Rocky Mountain Ski Lodge
The location worked great for hopping onto the hwy which was great. Was also spacious for what we needed. Definitely well used though with tricky to move drapes that barely slide unless you held the current just right. The kitchen utensils and pot/pan options were also very very lacking in quality ...
