Then when I finally got inside the beds were wrong in some rooms, there was bath robes missing and very little TP. Housekeeping did fix this asap.... More

Bear Creek Lodge is a very nice lodge. I will start with the ONLY negative so we can end on a positive note. The only draw back to this lodge is that it is not truly ski in ski out. You have to take a funicular (mini gondola type cart) to the run. The funicular does go straight to the... More

We stayed in unit 306, which is pet friendly. The staff at Bear Creek accommodated us and our dog, Bear. Like the fact that there is self parking included in the rate, which allows you to come and go freely without waiting for valet. Great kitchen, bathroom, and public spaces. The bedroom is a little crowded due to the armoire... More
