Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our room was clean and very comfortable. We had all the necessary amenities like coffee maker, dishes, blow dryer, etc. the jacuzzi tub was awesome and the jets were strong. The heater and fireplace worked great! The bed was too hard for our liking and hurt my back, but I would still come back. Check in and check out was easy. I loved that Circle K was across the street and the cottages were close to everything like Snow Summit, the Village, and lots of restaurants.

We enjoyed our stay at Cathy's Cottages; it was everything we wanted. The king-size bed and jacuzzi tub were perfect for our stay as a couple. Room was clean and comfortable. Wifi and cell service were excellent as well.
