We had a great time at Fireside Lodge. The house was well equipped and the communication with River Ridge was perfect! They were extremely responsive prior to arrival and of any issues found upon. If I were to make any constructive criticism, it would be that the heat was hard to control. It was either hot or cold. The kitchen lacked skillets to cook typical breakfast items. Finally, the ski in/ski out claim is true... it can be done. But it is far from easy. Skiing out requires some uphill hiking to reach the lift. The ski in portion requires you to ski through a gate that states “this is backcountry, you may die”. It can be done, we did it, but not family friendly. Overall, we have a great time, the house was great and we would stay here again!
