We traded points on RCI (timeshare) to stay here. We chose this location based on its alleged remodeled units and wireless high speed internet access. The internet access lasted about 1 hour for 2 of the 7 days we stayed. We complained at least twice a day to people who claimed to have no control over the situation because they outsourced the internet service and maintenance. The 24 hour technical support received a minimum of 2 phone calls from us per day and all we were ever able to do was leave a message. Once the property manager, Shelly, fixed the problem and even came to our unit but of course access was lost in an hour or so. I think they may have put new flooring in the units. Otherwise, I could not see where this place put the remodeling budget. There was a hug jacuzzi in the master bedroom which would have been acceptable except the jacuzzi was literally a foot away from the bed. It was weird. Overall, if you want to come here, plan to bring something to do. You are away from civilization. Shelly said, "If your life depends on [the internet] you can go to McDonalds." Yes, there is a McDonalds with wifi down the road and also a very well stocked and reasonably priced City Market (Kroger). If you need to work while you're here or you have people who like to have some connection to the outside world, you are best advised to look elsewhere. Also, don't make anyone sleep on the sofa beds, they are terribly uncomfortable.

My tip to Mountainside is to get your act together and be honest about your amenities and facilities. Do not raise expectations and then tell your employees to point fingers elsewhere. It makes them feel incompetent and leads to an unpleasant experience.

On the upside, the Rocky Mountains do not disappoint.

Well, after reading a few of the more negative reviews, we went with a healthy skepticism. But I must say, we were pleasantly surprised! My husband and I spent two full days skiing powder right there at the SolVista Basin!
The room was a renovated room and was great! It's literally like having your own apartment for the week. If I just had to complain, the ONLY two things I would have to say are, 1) be careful on the stairs! No elevator and can be slippery, and 2) the place would be perfect with a much better mattress on a king-sized bed :-)
Overall, great experience! And don't miss the Seven Trails Grill at SolVista Basin - have fun!!

We were looking for a quiet location close to outdoor summer activities in the mountains, and we found it here. Within a half hour, we could be hiking in the Rocky Mountain National Park, exploring Winter Park, riding horses, golfing, soaking in a natural hot spring pool, or dining in a wide variety of restaurants. The resort is a couple of hours drive from Estes Park (nice town, but pretty busy and "touristy"), but driving through Rocky Mountain National Park was worth the trip by itself.
The condo was very comfortable, with everything we were used to having at other resorts except a washer and dryer in the unit itself (there are 2 or 3 laundry rooms spread throughout the complex.) The pool was a bit small, but it was too cool to swim anyway. The view out the windows was awesome! When we go back to Colorado, we will look here for a place to stay again.

Very pleasant stay. Friendly staff. Quiet summer getaway within 30 minutes of the western entrance to Rocky Mtn Natl Park. Very nice fireworks at neighboring Grand Lake on the 4th.

If you are going to RMNP, research what you want to do/see there before you decide which side of the park to stay on. It is a 2 1/2 hour drive from one side to the other.

New grocery store (Kroger type) very close to entrance to resort at Sol Vista ski area. It was great.
