Sylvan Shores Vacations from $727

Very unique mountain biking destination. Everything you could need in one location. Lodging, bike rentals, guide service, bike shop, repair stations, bike wash station. Nice fire pit. Outdoor kitchen. Great service from Jeremy the owner. Above and beyond my expectations.

The experience this hotel provides is unrivaled in terms of general aesthetic. The art is wonderful and the rooms look great and are very clean. Lovely lounge area with great drinks and food as well.

This hotel did not work for our needs, we won't return, but it might be great for you? Pros: It's beautiful, new & modern. Wonderful setting on top of the hill. Abundance of outdoor spaces to hang out, sit by the firepits. Breakfast at the restaurant was really good. Rooms were sleek & modern, comfortable beds, robes were a nice touch, no carpet on the floors which I liked. Fridge in the room which was great. Cons: Rooms were unfunctional, tiny nightstand that won't fit anything, no desk to work, no where to sit except the bed. Bathroom situation was the worst, a glass barn door that provides zero privacy & it was frosted but only up to eye level, what in the world?? Ladies, no make up mirror (I searched!) & low lighting for makeup which cast shadows, impossible to work with. No lobby with comfy couches to lounge & work on a laptop. The restaurant had some spaces but they were not comfy at all with stiff chairs & couches without a back on them (but looked pretty). Just not practical for us.

Our room was great. The staff was super friendly and helpful. My concern is that we booked a hotel with an indoor pool so our grandkids could come over and swim. The hotel was letting swimming lessons be given in the pool by 3 and or 4 instructors therefore not leaving any pool space for paying guest. This was totally unacceptable in my opinion!
