I wish I can give this place a 3.5 because it's better than a 3 but doesn't deserve a 4. There is plenty of good, and the bad isn't anything that can't be fixed. It is definitely a nice place, full of nice people, and I am glad I got to go there.

There are plenty of nice views from around the resort. Relaxing in the outdoor hot tub looking out at the mountains is incredible. The pool and arcade area are nice and clean. They have a restaurant on site, nothing special.

The rooms come fully equipped with everything we needed to do our own cooking, though some items mentioned were missing. They had a grill outside our unit, with free gas at a nice little gazebo. This was nice, we grilled as we watched the sun set.

There is a nice big Jacuzzi in the bathroom. It is big enough for 2 which is nice. It was clean and worked well. It was perfect for relaxing evenings. Unless you have people with kids upstairs who sound like they're coming through the floor, which was one of a few minor issues.

First, there isn't much privacy so if you're up there looking to sit on your porch and quietly look up at the stars that won't happen. If you're on the 1st floor your balcony isn't even closed off and it is right at the front door. Also, some rooms only have views of cars and a parking lot while others have beautiful views of the mountains.

Next, there is a Murphy bed. This threw me off a little, but the bed is comfortable. Unfortunately it is nearly impossible to watch the TV from bed because of the angle.

Finally, it is bright in the morning. There are no curtains, just blinds that really don't help. At 5:30 each morning the sun woke us up and made it difficult to go back to sleep.
