Wow! That’s what I can say. From the minute we drove up (drove in from Tx) the staff was super helpful and accommodating. The valet helped unload our car while we got checked in. The process was smooth and very friendly. We had smaller kids with us and it was our first family ski trip ever. I’m so glad we chose the Blake. They truly make the fitting, the rentals, the ski school/lessons an easy process. The hotel is lovely, set at the base of the mountain and very conveniently located to restaurants and shops near by. Theres sledding, skiing, and fun adventures offered through the hotel. The rooms are spacious (double queen) with an area specifically for your snow gear. (A BIG closet at the entry of the room) There are washers and driers available for guest use if you need them. If you’re planning on dinners out make reservations as most restaurants require them. We decided to take the ice cat up to dinner at the top of the mountain and were very pleased with the experience and the food. After the first day of ski school we decided to put the kids in a semi private lesson since we were first time skiers and Chris, their instructor, was amazing! So attentive and made it super fun for the kids. All in all we had the best family vacation to date and will gladly be bringing more friends with us in the future. Thank you Blake Hotel Staff you made our trip the absolute best!
