I love staying at the Grand Lodge. Been going for years. Its showing some signs of aging, which is sad - nevertheless its still solid. The rooms are large, with kitchenette, separate bedroom etc. Good for families, especially with all our skiing gear (good storage etc..). The lobby bar is fun, kids can hang out there too and have shirley template, play board games as a family. However the service was very slow (1.5 hours to get our food), they were definitely short staffed for a friday night. The brunch breakfast was fabulous - good variety for everyone. The pool area and hot tub was crowded, and there needs to be renovations (paint pealing in spots). The outdoors saunas were neat. I liked that there was a ski rental / shop right on site, and discovered the skating trail right outside the property which is very neat. Overall, its a good place for a family weekend getaway - relaxed environment where you don't feel ackward walking around in ski gear, yet still has a elegant feel to it.
