We stayed in August and were the only family staying there. Upon check in the place was open, empty with an envelope with my name on it and keys inside. It was actually really scary. A little bit like the shining. We liked the two room bathroom in the middle room set up for our family of 5, but we felt really creeped out.

Property needs to put a visible address sign at entrance to prooerty. Hard to find at night. Property name on reservation did not match sign at the location. 3 collage grad people did not think the "The Lodge" was the same amas. Snow River Mountain Resort. We came in at night. The after hrs checkin worked ok but we believe the unit numbers should match the directions given .in other words . Put the actual unit numbers visible on the building id instead of current numbers.

We stayed here for one night for our anniversary. Vintage ski resort. Kind of cute. The rooms in the main lodge are pretty small. Hot water for our shower was basically non existent so that was less than ideal. Minor issues like broken toilet paper holder. The pool and sauna were nice and the resort overall pretty cute. Everything was closed due to a wedding so we went into Bessemer to eat. Pretty view. 7/10 stars overall for the price but a cute, quaint place if you’re just looking to stay to ski or explore the UP and won’t be in your room much.

The remodeling was nice, and the staff was very kind and helpful. The security of the room, and resort in general, was not great. The lack of clear signage and Google maps sending us down the road made it a little hard to find.

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.

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.
