The "totally upscale cowboy" resort of wood and stone is ski-in/ski-out, with "an unbeatable location" at the mountain base and "an amazing ski valet." Decorated in earth tones, "very rustic yet luxe rooms" have "thoughtful touches such as a cozy throw for the oversized leather chairs" and gas fireplaces. Westbank Grill is "very good, with excellent service." "In the bar, they remembered what we drank and brought it to us when we sat." One drawback: "You have to pay for valet parking, and, if I remember correctly, it was $24 a day!" "You must go to the spa. My husband had never been to one and was swept away."
