Accommodations clean and comfortable. Check in process with Luxury Getaways difficult. Snowater staff - went the extra mile to assist in communicating with Luxuray Getaways - as there is no cellular service in area, and wifi was very weak. With the no cellular service issue, it would have been better to recieve the check in information a few days prior to arrival when we had access to cellular service and/wi fi.Lovely resort- again, Snowater staff very helpful to get the details for check in from Luxury Getaways.
We had a wonderful time here! The place was great and the grounds beautiful! We also enjoyed the facility pool/hot tub and game room. Very family friendly
Enjoyed our stay. Very nice property. Unit was clean and comfortable. Really liked the pool. Good location. Make sure you figure out exactly where you are going especially at night, as it is dark and spotty cell phone service.
This one of the best places I've stayed. The unit was nicely decorated and the furniture was very comfy. The floorplan was great for two adults. Loved it!
Excellent, clean , quiet,very nice. Ive rented alot and this condo was superior. Only caution - parking was not close - but well worth the walk. I would rent again!
We highly recommend this property. It is fresh and clean yet nestled on the edge of the river in a beautiful forest. Trails outside your doorstep, minutes to the indoor pool and hot tub. The host was very accessible via text, let us add our dog at the last minute, gave him dog toys and treats, and they let us charge our car in Glacier at their office. We will be coming back for sure.
This was the perfect place to stay as We visited Mt Baker National Forest on a spectacular fall weekend. The corner location of this condo allowed us to fall asleep with the gentle sound of the river in the background. Perfect for a weekend getaway. Sauna, hot tub, workout room, pool all available and close by. Property management texted in frequently to make sure all was well. Can’t wait to come back in fall or in the summer.
Cozy, clean, beautiful and quiet with just a few issues
Cozy, clean, warm and quiet. Need a black out curtain for the downstairs bedroom as the street light shines brightly through the window all night and the shudders do little to block this intense light. The pillows were way too thick and uncomfortable. The beds were very comfortable though. All the lights in the condo are intensely bright and could use a dimmer switch for night as they are quite blinding. Beautiful area with great trails and right on the river, so quite beautiful and close to Mt. Baker ski area.
