Great place to stay for skiing at Purgatory
Great place to stay and close to Purgatory ski resort!
The room was boiling. Had to have the AC on the lowest setting at all times. Still was hot. Room was super dusty. Beds were so hard it was like sleeping on the ground. Sleeper sofa mattress dipped below the metal bars for a 10yo girl. And on top if that the pool has posted hours open until 10p and they kick everyone out at 9p.

Great Resort!
Loved the views and ease to find snow to play in with our kids! We liked that we were far enough out of town to enjoy the scenery and animals but still close to businesses like Purgatory, sleigh rides, Honeyville and restaurants.

Nice property, nice location
The property was better than what we expected. The location was the best part. Stunning views from our room. Close enough to Durango and the ski resort for summer activities.
