We had a great stay at Whitecap. The 3 Queen Suite was perfect for our group, plus our dog Murphy. It was very clean and ready upon our arrival. They did their best to keep lifts open and skiing available despite the very very cold temps. The staff was friendly and Denali was a highlighted staff member throughout the weekend that we saw! Kudos to her hard work. We hope to do another weekend stay in the future here.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Beautiful scenery, dog friendly and quiet. Nice fire pit out back just wish the yard lights weren't so bright..
We stayed overnight in September. I could imagine returning during ski season when all facilities would be up and running. Beautiful surrounding area. Nice location and facility.
We did not eat or drink there but the restaurant/bar was full every night! Staff was friendly and place is very clean and pet friendly. Pool area was clean, we did not use.
Staff was awesome! Property is "off the beaten path" which we really enjoyed. Food was exceptional, room was clean and comfortable.
Would definitely stay here again!!
We stayed one night, very friendly staff, the food was really good at the restaurant too. Weber lake is just a walk away. We could see it from our motel room window. The staff was friendly and helpful
This was our first time staying here. We will be back! The resort had a lot of opportunities to do things. We really enjoyed the evening campfire. The resort was clean. We appreciated the bar / restaurant. Above all, the staff that worked there, very nice and professional!
I love staying here. The shower in 210 is interesting to navigate the first time you stay in the room, but on the second stay in that room, I got a system figured out.
The property is cool as hell the pool is awesome and the hot tub is awesome, I was told they are working on fixing the jets, but the water is hot and amazing!
