Pictures do no justice!!!

Stayed: February 2012
My colleagues and I were on a time crunch trying to find a decent place to stay that was near another group of friends (who stayed @ Founder's Pointe right on the slopes). I've never been to Winter Park before, so I was comparing map distances every time I found a place that would be in our price range. In one of the pictures you can see the ski slopes, so I assumed we would be pretty close. If your looking for a place that is CLOSE this it pretty close.
-It's literally across the street from the ski resort, and they do have a shuttle that will pick you up (we used a car for our convenience though).
-The town with some fast food, gas, etc is 2 minutes tops.
-The pictures shown are "ok". The place truly is much more that what the pictures show! Clean, pretty modern for the most part. The bedrooms were all nicely kept. The laundry room was a bonus, letting us dry our own towels after the hot tub (which was also great!!).
-Everything you need is in the kitchen. Most spices like salt, sugar, pepper are already there along with standard pots and pans, cups, plates, etc.
-Towels and toilet paper, napkins were there too, and we also brought our own because we didn't know if we needed extra (which we didn't).
-Check out time was a little early (10am) which kind of was tough, considering I had to make sure all my guests did what they needed to do in their rooms before departing.
-As far as activities, we used the resort for snowboarding. We also snow mobiled, which gave us AWESOME views of the mountains, I definitely recommend that!!!
If I ever come back to Winter Park, I would definitely see if this place was available...worth the money!
