Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the Indian Head Resort was pleasant overall. The rooms were nice and clean, and the staff was really friendly. However, having the room across the street from the main building felt a bit inconvenient. The connector door to the next room was a bit unsettling, though.
The hotel offers a fantastic view, but the rooms are more in line with a Motel 6 and not the cleanest. The service was accommodating, and the location is perfect for outdoor activities. However, the dining experience was not stellar.
The hotel's rooms served their purpose but felt somewhat dated. They were clean but had trash on the floor from a previous guest and lacked games for my little girls. The location, while needing updates and with slow service in the restaurant, was ideal for accessing ski areas and offered a nice outdoor pool and hot tub. The dining experience, with very large portions at a great price but disappointing taste, featured home-made pastries. Overall, a mixed experience with both pros and cons.
