Great ski in ski out location

Super convenient, clean and well stocked. There's a few quirks (no windows in second bedroom, dated decor) but got the job done!

Ski in/ski out!

We loved the convenience of the Lodge - we took advantage of the well-equipped kitchenette for breakfast and lunch, rather than eat in the chalet, then had dinner in the restaurant on site. It's also great to soak in the hot tub in the middle of the day, before going out for a few more runs. A view of the slopes was a nice bonus.

Lovely experience at the lodge!

We really enjoyed staying at the Lodge at Giant’s Ridge in this property. The listing is very accurate and the rooms were comfortable. We loved that we could ski from the back of the property and store our equipment in the equipment room by check-in. The pool and hot tub were also nice! The kitchen was well-stocked and our party of 6 appreciated having two bathrooms. The host was very communicative and helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

Pre-Christmas escape

Our first time visiting Giants Ridge in the winter. Lovely condo and access to all of the great amenities at The Lodge. We walked out the door on to the nordic ski trail! A few down hill runs were open, and despite the lack of snow we enjoyed the slopes. Our host provided excellent restaurant recommendations, which were needed as the unit only had a single burner induction plate.

Third Floor Paradise

We had a wonderful time at the Lodge located at Giants Ridge. We have rented from Giants in the past and thought we would try a VRBO this time. Boy were we ever pleased. We had a beautiful hillside view and the third floor was GREAT! No loud ski boots were thumping around above us. Thanks for sharing your space, Eldon! We can’t wait to come back next year!
