    Would recommend for a short visit

    Cozy queen room, beautiful views, we enjoyed the indoor swimming pool and hot tub after a day exploring the area and had cocktails on the terrace while watching the sunset above the Mississippi River.

    No complaints.

    stunning views
    efficient staff
    on-site dining
    lack of elevators
    cumbersome luggage

    My stay at Chestnut Mountain Resort was quite enjoyable. The views from my room overlooking the Mississippi River were stunning, providing a serene backdrop for my business trip. The staff were efficient in assisting with my requests, and the meeting facilities were well-equipped, ensuring my presentations went smoothly. Additionally, I appreciated the on-site dining options, especially the breakfast with fresh fruit offerings.

    One downside was the lack of elevators, making it a bit cumbersome with luggage.

    common area upkeep

    great location with stunning views

    The breathtaking views from the dining area really enhanced our meals. The outdoor activities, like the sky train and alpine slide, provided a lot of fun and memorable experiences.

    However, some areas could use more regular upkeep, particularly in the common spaces.

    attentive staff

    Recommend it for solo adventurers

    Had a beautiful room with a amazing view of the river, like a painting. The staff was attentive, fixed my air conditioning issue fast, and I was in a new room overlooking the mountains almost immediately.

    It wasn’t exactly cheap either, but you get what you pay for.

    breathtaking views
    friendly staff
    clean accommodations
    slow service
    outdated decor
    small bathroom

    Breathtaking views from my room made the stay unforgettable. The scenic overlook of the Mississippi River really stood out. The skiing options excited me, with Rookies Hill perfect for beginners. I loved that everything felt family-friendly, from the layout to the activities. Staff members were friendly and helped whenever I needed something. I had a fun time with ziplining and was impressed by the clean and spacious areas. However, the restaurant experience was frustrating. The only eatery available had slow food service, and my meal was disappointingly prepared. Breakfast was just mediocre. Décor in the rooms felt outdated, especially in the bathroom. The room lacked space, and the small bathroom made it less comfortable. Visitors should note the lack of an elevator, which made lugging luggage a hassle. Despite these issues, the views and the variety of activities made my stay enjoyable overall.

    stunning views
    alpine slide
    fresh fruit
    overcooked burger
    cold hash browns

    The Summit has some stunning views, especially from the terrace during meals. The alpine slide was a thrill, and the atmosphere was perfect for a group of friends looking to kick back and get adventurous. Can't forget the fresh fruit, which was a nice touch at breakfast!

    Dining left a bit to be desired. The burger was well done instead of medium rare, and the breakfast buffet could definitely use some love. the bacon crumbled apart and the hash browns were barely warm. Plus, the no elevator situation really had us feeling those extra steps with luggage!
