Mountain Lodge at Okemo, A Vail Resorts Property

I don't expect much in the way of ski accommodations. I'm happy if someone throws a blanket on their couch. I have even slept in my car in the parking lot at a mountain. I don't care. So what a shock I had when my kids and I walked into the lodge at Jackson Gore! They took care of everything. We walked in, early in the morning, before check-in. I left the keys in the car and we put our boots on and got on the lift. When we returned that afternoon, our bags were waiting for us in our room. Our shoes were missing and had to be tracked down. And there was no microwave in the room so we had to heat our breakfast burritos on the coffee maker burner - Ski Bum Level 11. But otherwise, this was a real treat for us. And since we were slopeside, my kids got first chair on a powder day. They are now officially spoiled.

Beautiful off season views. Nice room. Kitchen well stocked for cooking

No amenities. Thought we were staying at the other resort and I’ll chemo

very nice accommodations. Great staff. Perfect stay.

This would have been a great location if it were ski season (right at the chair lift) but it was ~3 miles from where you check in. The facility is showing its age although certainly clean and comfortable. I was also a bit perturbed about the “resort fee” given there were no resort amenities to benefit from.

We had to beg them everyday to come clean the room and bring us clean towels, even after we called they came to make the bed and give us clean towels only, they didn’t clean the shower or toilet or vacuum, they didn’t take out the trash or wash the coffeemaker or dishes. Very extremely disappointed, they also tell you that you can use the facilities like the pool etc, but when you go they can only let you use the indoor pool not the other one or any of the facilities at the Jackson Gore hotel

The best part of the room was the pillows. Well done!! Wish everyone had pillows that comfortable. Made the bed more comfortable. Room was typical mountain room, no frills, computer area was too small as was the tv. Remote was not working. The bathroom had some updates, but not enough. The restaurant Buffett was not good. However, we are here for a trade show off season so I will give them a pass on that. The bar staff was great. The grounds were excellent, plenty to do. Would recommend.

A one bedroom condo with full kitchen, living room, bath balcony and ski locker located a the base of Okemo Mountain. Gear up, get your skis and walk out to the lifts. Totally convenient. Tv in the living room and bedroom. And you have an assigned parking space. This is the best accommodation we have had at Okemo and we will return.

My husband took me and our kids (ages 8 and 6) to Okemo for a snowboarding weekend for my birthday. We were there for 4 days in January. The apartment was great, it was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for our stay, right down to dish soap and laundry detergent. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of closet space throughout the unit for all our stuff. The lockers right outside the room were an excellent feature for storing all our outdoor gear. The bathroom was a little small but definitely not a big deal for us, just something to think about if you need more space for bathing babies or whatever. The staff was very frinedly and so helpful. The night we arrived there was a bad ice storm, the staff not only helped me and my kids get into the bldg safely, they helped my husband bring up all our luggae and food. The pool at the Spring House was nice, but it is at Jackson Gore so note that you have to either drive there or hop on the shuttle. The Spring House is a fitness center so you have lots to do there; a good size work out room with cardio and weight lifting equipment, classes such a yoga and even raquetball. It was a nice place and the kids really enjoyed the pool. If you are at Okemo over the winter on a weekend for skiing or snowboarding, note that it does get very busy. However, the mountain is so big that it is really only the base that seems crowded. If you plan on signing uour kids up for lessons, do it early (weeks in advance) and note that they are non-refundable and that regardless of whether they are not likely to get canceld by the resort. As I mentioned we were in an ice storm and they still had kid lessons. We pulled our kids out becuase the conditions were miserable and more importantly very dangerous and lost all our money. They would not refund or even let us change the lesson date or time. Most places are like this, but if you have never experienced it before it is something important to consider. Okemo Mountian is an AWESOME place to snowboard and stay! We loved it and will absolutely be back next year!

I loved that had all the amenities of home. Would definitely go back again. And stay.
