Well, the location is great. This lodge is actually perfect if you don't want to cook, are either a couple or single, and plan on eating out a lot.
If staying here with more than one child, expect nothing spectacular. The rooms are all identical, so there is no upgrade. Space is not in the Christie Lodge's vocabulary. The bed was a small queen, there is no oven, only one countertop burner, and seating is minimal. You get one chest of drawers, a tiny closet, a very small refrigerator, minimal dishes, a dish washer, and a microwave. The bathroom was small, but updated. A very nice walk-in shower, but it leaked. Water pressure was not the best, but at least you get hot water.
There were outdoor, gas grilles available for us to use. The lodge did provide gas if it ran out. So you don't need to bring any grille supplies. This is how we cooked, and I didn't see anyone else using the grilles.
As the pictures show, there are many many stairs. There is one elevator, but it was very small and slow. This place does have a heated outdoor pool and several choices for jacuzzis. One outdoor and one on each wing indoors.
The shop owner/operator in the ski shop downstairs was rude and I let him know then walked out with my business going elsewhere.
The brightest part if the experience was the front desk gentleman named Alex. He was extremely nice, helpful, and accommodating.
