quiet and beautiful
We stayed here during the off season and it was great! Beautiful views and we had the whole pool are to ourselves. The room was clean, quiet and comfortable. None of the food/drink options were open but there were a couple places in town that satisfied our needs.

Good Place
It was a good place to stay but being out of skiing season not much in amenities, but staff good and suggestions where to eat great. Bed against wall was not comfortable to gwt up out of at night. Talked to staff about putting microwaves in rooms.

Nice off-season stay
I always enjoy staying at ski resorts in the off season, and Snowriver fits the bill. Lodging was reasonably priced. It was relatively quiet, but very scenic. The location was perfect for exploring surrounding waterfalls, lakefront, and Porcupine Mountains State Park. The room was compact, but very clean and comfortable. I think it would be tight if sharing this space amongst 4 people just due to lack of seating options and no room to spread out or just hang out in the room. (I don’t know where one would put all the luggage for 4 people with all their ski gear for a long weekend.) However it was fine if one is just using the room to sleep and then get ready in the morning (which is how I use hotels). My only real (first world) problem was lack of functional WiFi. There was occasionally a very weak and slow signal that disappeared more than it was available, but it was not sufficient to actually use during my stay. Consequently I burned up a lot of cell phone data during my stay.

A Cute Midwest Getaway
I loved how cute the rooms are. They do not have a continental breakfast, or microwaves in the room but we were able to head into town to grab breakfast. We stayed in the double queen studio. The sights on the premises were amazing. The ski lift was super cool, although it was super cold and windy. The hotel staff was super friendly and helpful as well. The only feedback I’d have to the property is to check the cleanliness of the rooms, our room had a few flies in it when we first arrived but I was quickly able to catch them and release them outside.

Vastly overpriced and underwhelming
I would have been underwhelmed if this room cost half of what it did, to be honest. Positives: The room was clean and attractive The mattress was quite comfortable Negatives: Very thin walls Terrible water pressure No breakfast, not even a thrown together continental buffet Badly overpriced - nearly $200 for a night for one person Unlit parking lot in terrible condition that you have to traverse between the lobby and the buildings with rooms

Way over priced
We killed 4 flies in the room upon entering. There was no smoke detector, it smelled musty, and the water in the shower got no warmer than lukewarm (I was unable to truly shower).

Maybe it's better in the winter?
This place may be better in the winter? I think we were the only guests there and they have only a few workers around. When I called, the gal answering he phone didn't have answers. The jacuzzi was broken. There was a dog free roaming that growled at everyone. The room was over priced for what we experienced. Oh- the signage is not clear and said Jackson River Summit where you check in. Confusing. With that said, the two men that worked there were kind and helpful with the surrounding area and info.

Great place to stay
We had a great time at snow River resorts. They have renovated a lot of the property recently, and we had an amazing time with the kids at the pool and hot tub. The property also has an amazing set of waterfalls, and we had a great time exploring around those. The workers were very friendly, and Kyle gave us some great advice on local hiking, etc. We visited copper peak, presque River, the porkies, black River harbor, Lake Superior, and lake of the clouds while we were there. This is a great location for all these experiences.

4/10 Fair

Checkin was at 4 pm. We arrived around 5:30 to find no attendant, but an envelope with instructions. That was fine, but the written note indicated that we should not open the windows due to spraying for bugs. The room was unbearably hot and the air conditioner was not cooling. We had to open the windows, but only two of the three opened. It still took most of the night to cool. And we never saw anyone spraying for bugs. For checkout, we were instructed to leave the keys at the desk. There was no one there and we had to wait about 10 minutes for someone to show. Coffee was available at the desk, but the creamer curdled as it was added to the coffee. We had to throw it out. Desk staff was not very friendly or helpful. The pool and hot tub were nice though. This place may be okay to stay at in the winter for skiing, but I don’t recommend it for a summer stay.

This was a very nice place. It is very quiet in the summer. The only thing that I would caution is that if you have any need to call them, you will not get a hold of anyone. And, if you check in during a time when no one is working it could be extremely confusing.

A great place to relax off season
Very nice. I went off season in Augusr and stayed for one night. My room was clean and very quiet as it was off season. I stayed in a room in one of the chalets . I had a view of the ski summit from my room. They have a restaurant on site which is very convenient. There is some great nature to walk around from your room so very relaxing.
