We had an adventurous family trip at Hope Lake Lodge, where the kids were thrilled with the spacious accommodations and numerous activities. The indoor water park was a hit, and we really enjoyed the cozy dining options, especially the pasta night and delicious brunch. However, we encountered challenges with attractions being closed early in the week and felt a bit limited on some days. Overall, the experience was memorable, but it would have been better with more options available during our stay.

We had a memorable family trip filled with skiing and fun activities, although the busy weekend made the water park a bit overwhelming. The rooms were spacious and unique with nice rustic decor, but some amenities needed upgrading. While the dining at the restaurant was delightful, the additional costs for the water park were unexpected. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but more planned activities would enhance the experience.

Our stay at Hope Lake Lodge was filled with fun! The location right by the ski resort is fantastic, making it easy for everyone in our family to enjoy both skiing and other activities. The room we stayed in was spacious and equipped with a full kitchen, perfect for our family's needs. However, the dining experience left something to be desired, as the restaurant food quality was inconsistent. Overall, it's a great place to visit, especially for families looking for varied activities.
