Horsethief Lodge by High Country Properties

The scenery is unlike anywhere else, and I love the pools, hot tubs, and shared BBQ areas. Everything was clean, well stocked, and had the essentials, so all we had to do was fill the fridge and settle in. The staff are friendly, too. Great location and definitely my favourite vacation spot. I’ll be back every year.

We come every summer, and we’ve liked this building better than the one right on the hill. The rental was clean and spacious, with everything stocked, in-suite laundry, and a cozy patio with a table, chairs, and BBQ. The TV had Netflix and some other apps. With young kids, the three staircases made us a bit nervous. Otherwise it was pretty kid friendly. This building is among the farthest from the pools, and I wish I’d brought a wagon for the pool gear and the smaller child. The staff who run the kids' activities are friendly and approachable.

We enjoyed the setting, especially the good river trails and beautiful golf course. The timeshare staff were very helpful, but a lot of things stayed closed all week. In the unit, the lack of insulation meant we could hear people talking in neighboring units, even at 3:30 am, as well as every step from the people above us. The bedroom lights were so dim it was hard to see into the closet. I liked the area much more than the room.

The apartment was quiet in early September and nicely furnished, though the bed was softer than I like. It’s only a short walk to the central area, and in winter it’s almost ski in/ski out. Underground parking is available, with just a short walk from there to the apartment.
