Top Crater Lake Trailhead Hotel Reviews

Laurelwood Condominiums

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and roomy apartment with fully stocked kitchen, a balcony with a grill and nice touches like extra blankets and coffee. Loved the grounds - clean, beautiful, easy to find. Will stay again!"

The Timberline Condominiums

10/10 Excellent

"Clean rooms and very friendly staff"

Ski In/Out Home, Game Room, Incredible views from the slopes! BBQ Grill/Jacuzzi!

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely house with lots of room. Great hot tub and game room. Nice deck and views. Checking in was as easy as entering a code. Everything was labeled and easy to navigate. And we got to spend lots of time hanging out with a beautiful fox that was curious about us and stayed around for two days. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone going to Snowmass with a family or friends. The only thing that could use updating is the living room stereo system, which is a CD player and speakers probably from about 1990! (I was able to hook my computer up to it and play Spotify, though.)"

10/10 Excellent

"The house was perfect for our family. The girls loved the single bed rooms on the lower floor. We loved hiking right out the door on the mountain trails. It was a little warm, especially in the upper bedroom on some sunny days but a fan helped circulate the the air from the lower floors. The house is not new but everything functioned great and the kitchen was well stocked. The host was easily contacted on text. We would return again!"
