Top Thunderhead Express Hotel Reviews

Amazing Location on Mtn w/Air Conditioning-100 yds to Trails-Heated Pool-Hot Tub-W/D in Unit-Grill

8/10 Good

"Loved our stay here. The place was very nice, bigger than I thought. Great to do laundry, and I cooked only once, but the kitchen was well stocked. Wi-Fi was great. The TV was hard to figure out. No free cable for live TV. We had to login to our accounts. The only issue was the master King mattress was older and needs replacing. I slept fine, but my husband ended up in a twin in the other room with my son."

8/10 Good

"Nice condo in an older complex. It’s located very high in the resort so be aware of that if you intend to walk or bike to the ski area central business area. The bear awareness signs aren’t joking. Someone who left food in their car had an unwelcome surprise."

Charming Townhouse on Burgess Creek, Sauna, Winter Shuttle

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean. This condo met our early-summer needs perfectly: secluded (not in the high-rise resort area), next to a mountain, back yard with pine trees and a creek running just beyond it, covered balcony to enjoy all that nature. It is a 3-level unit with extra little levels thrown in on the main floor to descend to the living room, etc. Lots of stairs.It has 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths, enough that each bedroom has its "own" bath. The "primary" bedroom upstairs sits at the front, near the parking area, so receives a lot of light (and potentially noise) all night because the parking lot is well-lit and the curtains are not light-blocking. Plan accordingly: ear plugs, eye mask. It has a queen bed and an attached double-sink vanity area with a doored-off toilet/shower room. You must pass through this vanity area to access the loft bedroom.The "loft" bedroom has an amazing night sky view looking out the clerestory windows from the loft bed. Leave a window open to add the sound of the creek. Its "own" bathroom becomes the one on the main floor--not super convenient but doable. (The loft bed mattress is actually an XL twin, although the space it sits in creates the optical illusion of making it look shorter. It's not.)The "second" bedroom is downstairs with a queen bed and a twin bunk bed. The queen mattress is uncomfortably firm for me. It's "own" bathroom is four steps down the hall past the (5-ish person) sauna.Kitchen is well-stocked but needs more teflon-free pans."

Walk to the Thunderhead Lift

10/10 Excellent

"We came with a large group for a family reunion and had an amazing visit. We loved that there were bathrooms attached to almost all the bedrooms . Two washer/ dryers and two dishwashers were so helpful with our large group. Kitchen was fully stocked. The owners truly had thought of everything.We loved the hot tub and the pool table. It was nice to have several different areas for our group to gather. We really liked the back porch. The railing went all the way around so we could sit and talk while the toddler played without worrying of her falling off. The chairs were comfortable, and the atmosphere was amazing.The owner was quick to respond to all my questions and great to work with. We’ve stayed at a lot of different cabins, and this was by far the best. Thanks for the great experience."
