    The Grand Lodge--Crested Butte - Highlife Crust & Crafts

    It was nice to stay in a hotel that was walking distance from Crested Butte Mountain Resort. After…read moreskiing all day, we enjoyed hanging out in the indoor/outdoor heated pool and hot tub. The room itself was somewhat spacious. Our ski gear ended up making the room a little crowded. We were just happy that the beds were nice and comfortable. Our room was near the back door, so we were able to park toward the back of the hotel to have quick access to our vehicle. The Grand Lodge has a nice lobby area. I enjoyed hanging out in front of the fireplace late evenings. There is a fitness room and a gift store near the lobby that sells souvenirs, merchandise and personal items. There is a restaurant called the Highlife Crust & Crafts inside of this hotel. We didn't dine there, but I did grab a breakfast burrito one morning and got charged twice for it. So I had to return to get a refund. The food at Highlife is a little pricey. There are plenty of food options in the surrounding area if you want something more affordable. Overall, our stay here was good and we enjoyed the convenience of having a short walk to the ski resort.

    I stayed here recently for the fourth time and I recommend checking it out!…read more I have used the WiFi for video calls with no issues, you can't beat the location, the pool and hot tub is a nice option, and the hotel is right by the free shuttle. The kitchenette is also great if you want to bring some of your own food. Yes, you may have a different experience based on where you reserve your room. We used Vrbo. The hotel is not brand new but honestly, who goes on vacation to stay in their hotel room and examine some paint chips on the wall? I'll definitely be back again.

    This is a January 2022 review so it is recent and relevant…read more Be aware that the master "bedroom" that has a nice bathtub did not have a door installed. So, not only did the master bedroom not have a door, essentially the master bathroom did not have a door either. Please look at the property pics that show the bathtub in the master bathroom. During the stay we requested that the door be installed and they agreed but never got it done. The door was in the closet but the hinge hardware was missing so we could not hang it ourselves. The property description needs to state clearly that the master bedroom (master bathtub room) does not have a door so that guests in the living room below can hear every whisper and can also walk up the stairs to sneak up on you bathing, sleeping, getting dressed, etc. as there is no door! I left a 4 star review on VRBO saying that the property would be a 5 star if only the master bedroom door was installed. Kathy Reid then left a retaliatory 3 star renter review. So, in summary the property is misrepresented and be careful leaving a critical review on VRBO as they will then leave a revenge rating.

    We stayed at Kate's place in March 2021 and had a wonderful stay. Everything was as described and…read morein perfect order. This was a work / ski trip and the Wifi was over 100 mb, so we had no trouble with zoom meetings and large files. We didn't have any issues, but the management company did come to shovel snow as appropriate. I would be very happy to stay there again.

    Poached canned salmon and undercooked burnt hashbrowns. Reba was the inattentive server who didn't…read moreseem to care about a single top. Never asked how the food was, no drink refill offers, instead the table beside me got 7 mins of local gossip that I really didn't want to know about. I get Chad cheated on his wife, but there's a reason he's a chad and I'm eating at McGill something. First and last time at this establishment. Maybe if you are local and a foreigner they will provide stellar service. This was just horrible. Oh yeah. Make sure you ask for your check. Waited another 20 mins on that. Just walk up to the register and it will make them pay attention if they forgot you. The students behind the bar should help Reba out more if she can't handle a one top.

    Fearful of what I might find here, as small, resort locales often possess oligopolistic control…read moreover pricing and quality, I ventured through the door at McGill's, a local staple, and ordered the Great American breakfast. The quality of ingredients and preparation were all spot on. Bacon was triple crispy as I requested. Hash browns were made with butter, as I insisted. Eggs were cooked perfectly, neither rubbery nor slimy. Magnificent was the French toast. Served as something resembling a German log roll, it was crispy on the outside, tasty throughout, and yet remained free from being bread-y. I savored every bite of this, a real highlight. You can substitute this for the muffin for a $2 fee or thereabouts. Do that, and you won't be disappointed. Two areas that could be improved: the pancake syrup, and while it tasted fine, was definitely corn syrup based and low quality. I humbly think that the owner could easily charge $1.75 more and offer the real thing. Further, the orange juice wasn't great, acceptable, but far from a real fresh squeezed caliber. The hostess forced me to sit at the bar when tables were open. Fortunately for me, a spectacularly responsive and friendly other server rescued me, provided me a table and provided the utmost in service for a breakfast styled establishment of this ilk. She was also food knowledgeable as her husband and her own one of the truly great restaurants in town, further down the street on Elk Avenue. Pricing was just right. Location is fantastic as well. I plan to return, but may bring my own syrup and orange juice. Thumbs up for McGill's.
