Our stay at Caribou Highlands was very enjoyable , Only Issues were , Parking if you are staying in the Hotel part of the building is not reserved, and did wish that Moguls was open for some type of Breakfast!
David, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Meh!

It was just about bare minimum. Beds were quite uncomfortable. Linens didn’t feel great and they tried to pass a mattress cover as a comforter. Appliances very dated as well as pots/pans/utensils. When we got there, the old dishes were still in the dishwasher and the grill had old food stuck in it. It all felt a little ick. We did have enough towels and the restaurant was good!
3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Restaurant was not open Monday or Tuesday so no close food. Had to drive 10+ miles to find food. Lobby not open until 8am so no access to anything. No housekeeping offered so room never cleaned. At prices I paid service was very poor. Would never Stay there again
Jeff, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great property and very friendly staff. I paid extra for a mountain view room but could only see the trees blocking my view. Carpeting needs cleaning as there’s a musty smell in the main lodge where I stayed. They keep the common areas too warm, a lot of humidity that adds to the mustiness. Maintenance needs to take charge and have a regular cleaning schedule.
Scott R, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

More than we expected

Amazing views from our room. Free some more set up so you can have fun by the fire! Giant chess. Bocce ball and cornhole. The most amazing staff ever! Staff from all around the world makes chitchatting so incredibly interesting. Watch the gondolas go up and down the mountain. Beautiful gift shop. Far more than we expected. Absolutely beautiful and we will be back.

Diptimaya, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I like the ski-in, ski-out (after a very short hike). And if you're not even up for a short walk, there's an on-demand shuttle service. I also like having a restaurant and bar on the premises so you don't have to venture out in the cold to eat or drink. I also discovered that the gift shop has convenience food items tucked in coolers in the back.

Beautiful property. The lodge has a huge fireplace and the warmth from it was heavily coming in from the snow. The room was pleasant. The world pool was quite small though. Nice shower and the beds were very comfortable and the bedding debine
