“Best Resort Ever for a Wedding or a Vacation!”

We just had our daughter's wedding at Mountain Shadows Resort. From the minute we walked into the resort until the minute we left, we were treated like royalty! The staff there is amazing. Every single person we came in contact with- bell boys, front desk, cleaning service, wedding staff, pool staff, etc. could not have been more accommodating and kind. The resort worked so well with all our vendors for the wedding. Our guests enjoyed their stays with most if not all given the ability to check in early and requests being granted. The beauty at Mountain Shadows is breath taking. The venue was amazing and so unique with ceremony, reception, and dancing in three different beautiful places- band created such a flow making the transitions fun for all the guests. Finally, many of our older guests, enjoyed the ability to walk and sit outside during dancing yet with the ability to walk through glass doors and come back in to dance when ready. Finally, I realized a week later I left my jewelry at the hotel, I called and they had it all in their safe. You cannot go wrong with an event at Mountain Shadows. If you want an event there, talk to Emma and she will make sure it's perfect.

Don at the Hearth ‘61 was absolutely fabulous and the definition of luxury. He truly made the experience memorable. Pool was lovely.

“Beautiful Views, But Not the Quiet Retreat I Expected”

The resort is visually beautiful and the setting is stunning, but our stay came with several frustrations that I feel future guests should know about. We visited on a birthday trip and were looking forward to a relaxing, quiet experience. Unfortunately, large events held on both Friday and Saturday evenings made several lounge areas inaccessible due to overcrowding. I specifically paid extra for a balcony room to enjoy the views and some peace and quiet — instead, we were met with loud music and party noise both nights. The complimentary birthday drink tickets were a thoughtful gesture, but we weren’t able to use them until our last night once the crowds had finally cleared. The most troubling issue involved our mini bar. We returned to our room on Saturday evening to find that a Coke we had planned to enjoy was no longer there. I reported it to the front desk immediately. Despite being told a note would be made so I wouldn’t be charged, I was billed for both the Coke and a Snickers bar at checkout — neither of which we consumed. The charge was eventually cleared, but the situation raises a real concern: if items are being removed from mini bars, what’s to stop someone from removing personal belongings? The resort may be a good fit for those seeking a lively, event-driven atmosphere, but I would not recommend it for anyone looking for a quiet getaway or who has concerns about room security.
