Wonderful stay!
This condo was perfect for our family! The beds downstairs were very comfortable for all 4 adults and the kids loved the upstairs loft. Both bathrooms were very nice and spacious. The kitchen had everything we needed and more! The dining table and living area gave us plenty of space to eat, play games and relax. The location was beautiful!

Mountain Lodge with a View!
We loved our stay at Tamarron Lodge in 515! The unit was large and well stocked. The views from the living room and main bedroom were amazing! It was a short drive up the mountain to go ski at Purgatory. The amenities were great. Would stay here again.

Nice place to stay
This condo was clean. The spiral staircase to the loft was difficult to get up and down and the two twin beds were very uncomfortable. The condo was well stocked with everything you need. I was however a little surprised that we were responsible to do the dishes, start a load of laundry and take all the trash out prior to leaving when we had to pay a cleaning fee. We’ve stayed at several other condos and never had to do this as again we pay a cleaning fee. Beautiful property.

Beautiful property with tons of accommodations
We regularly rent this condo as it's clean, well appointed and located on the top floor (corner) so it's very private. The condo has recently come into new ownership and many of the amenities have been upgraded. The owners are clearly very organized and involved in maintaining the property for their guests. They also left a lovely note that talks about future upgrades they plan to make to the property which we appreciate for future stay consideration. The overall property has many activities for both the winter and summer seasons along with two on-site restaurants (one plant based, one bar/grill) with a third being constructed this winter. The property is also located 8 minutes from the ski mountain with a daily shuttle during ski season. You will NOT be disappointed :)

This lodge was great! Very nice and spacious and a comfy stay. We all loved the fireplace after a cold day on the mountain. Would stay here again.

Perfect!
Everything about the room was perfect! It was stocked with paper products as well as regular plates, bowls, etc. Trash bags, dish soap, hand soap, and anything else we needed was all right there for our use. The room was clean and spacious and well decorated. And of course you can't beat the view!
