Wonderful February Vacation Spot! Great Pool! My family of 5 (2 adults, 3 kids), stayed at The Summit during February school vacation week. I requested a top floor because I was worried about noise and the hotel honored the request which was great! I didn't realize that the stairwell was exterior so we had to go up and down the stairs in the cold/with snow on the walkways. It wasn't a big deal just something to keep in mind if you're staying in the winter or on a stormy day. Room: The room was spacious. We stayed in 211, which was top floor, with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. As others have mentioned, the room could use an updating with the carpets and furniture, but overall, it was clean and roomy enough for a family of 5. My son said the pullout couch was a bit firm but he slept ok on it - probably wouldn't be great for an adult. One weird thing was the dresser drawers. They wouldn't shut! All of the dresser drawers in the place were open all the time. Note that there was no housekeeping, and you have to bring your towels to the front desk if you want new ones. To avoid this, we just used the in-unit washer/dryer to wash our towels. One weird thing is that the room had a strange smell that came in through the bathroom. It wasn't a bad sewage smell but smelled like cooking turkey. We kept joking that our neighbors must be cooking a turkey dinner. The smell permeated the whole room each day and made our clothing smell. Property: Because there was so much snow on the ground, we didn't walk around the property much. It looks like they have a nice playground with an outdoor pool. I'd like to come back in the summer to make full use of the amenities. We did visit the farm next door for snow shoeing and that was fun! As others mentioned, there's no restaurant on-site so we went to the local grocery store to pick up snacks and ate at nearby restaurants. Lodge: The main lodge was great. There is a racquetball room, a gym, a (very) small arcade, a ping-pong table, coloring pages for kids, books, a small store, and a pool with a bathroom/changing area. My kids loved the pool every day. It was nice to sit inside, enjoying the pool area while the outside looked like a winter wonderland. There are two slides, one for smaller children that's very slow and one for bigger kids/adults. There's a Roman hot tub that fits about 20 people. We have no complaints about the condition of the pool and hot tub, but it would be nice to have a staff member supervise the area as many teenagers were climbing up the slides, jumping in and out of the hot tub, and bringing drinks into the hot tub. (Or it'd be nice if parents supervised!) The pool area also has a little bar where you can get alcoholic or fun non-alcoholic drinks. We loved our time at the pool. Staff: All of the staff members were so nice! From check-in to those who were clearing and shoveling the walkways to the lady working at the bar, everyone we interacted with was pleasant, kind and smiled at us. Location: The location is awesome. Close to Gunstock for skiing and tubing, Funspot arcade, Kellerhaus for ice cream, and lots of restaurants. If you're there in the summer Weirs Beach is just minutes away. Overall, we had a great stay. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and quiet. The pool was awesome, and the staff was A+. Looking forward to staying here again in the future!

Our late winter ski getaway We've stayed at The Summit many times for our late winter family ski trip. This place brings back memories as I remember when it was built. My family owned a home directly next door and often walked through the property enjoying the peaceful setting. The units are very spacious and the overall condition of the property is very good. It could use a slight refresh, but I find this to be very typical of the time share resort industry. The location offers options for activities in every season and is convenient to food, drink, shopping, sightseeing, etc.

Great, clean place Great place to stay! My husband and I took our two boys aged 5 and 10 this past weekend. We got home today. Everyone was friendly and the service was great, the rooms were clean and the pool was nice. We will definitely return here in the future. The only thing that’s lacking is a restaurant. I understand that we have a full kitchen, but sometimes you just don’t feel like cooking when you’re on vacation. The town lacks any good options. We had pizza that my kids said was the worst pizza they ever had and I had haddock from a different place that was super dry. There is a Walmart nearby, so that’s what we did and picked some things up. We had an incident where kids were bouncing a ball over my head when I was sleeping and it woke me up, I just asked that they make mention to the parents so it doesn’t happen again. We had a very good experience and my reason for 4 stars is just the lack of food!
