Zephyr Mountain Lodge

I was verbally abused by one of the employees because I said jokingly «don’t worry I’m official here’s my key card to my room» because this older gentlemen was working the door when I walked in and I thought he was checking room keys… he told me verbatim «you need to get the f*** to your room» obviously paying $ 250 a night I stopped and said «your joking right?» Sadly no he was not and he also threatened me by saying «I’m not f****** around go to your room… I will never stay here again and I hope for the sake of this place they fire this man… because every time I came down to leave or would come back into the hotel he would eyeball me and stare me down… I even tried talking to him and two other employees later on to try and figure out why he was so upset but no one in this building would do anything and I was yelled at by the man saying I was drunk… funny thing is I did not have anything to drink that night or day… I will never stay here again… good luck to everyone else… and when I get his name I will release it don’t worry.

We stayed in Fraser crossing and really enjoyed everything about our stay. Check-​in, parking, ski rentals were easy and stress-​free. We loved being able to walk across the street and get on the lifts. Will definitely book here again!

We stayed at Frasier Crossing across from the main lobby. The parking was roomy and the unit was a 2&2 on the end near the jacuzzi! The units were nice and roomy. The kitchen was fairly large and had everything needed to cook a decent meal. Dishes too. The tub in the master bath was great for soaking our beaten bodies. Overall, this was a great experience for us and we got an extra night for free. The runs were ok but the ski school definitely can get in the way on the easier slopes. I ran into them and had some trouble getting past on some of the easier runs. The shops and restaurants were ok too. They also have a robust rental department and decent ski shop on site. My daughter was in the ski school and got really good instruction with only four children for two teachers.
Overall, we loved the experience and everyone had a great time.

Great time. Close to shopping and skiing and the shuttle takes you to downtown. We will most certainly come back

Dirty! I rented this unit from the owner and walked into a condo that looked like someone was living in it. Floss and hair left in the bathroom, dog hair caked on the bedspread. Beer cans in the couch cushions. Trash on the floor. I called to complain. Nothing. 24hrs later I call the owner. They call to tell me they will be by «sometime today» to clean… no apology… no offer to make it right. Nothing. This place knows very little about customer service. Management company should be fired! I’ve stayed in third world countries that had cleaner accommodations and better customer service.

Decent location to slopes but tired old rooms with poor service. No maid service and too many things to list but most recent was checkout at 10am and I requested a late checkout. They wanted to charge me $ 25 per hour after that and this was on a Monday when the parking garage was nearly empty! There are newer and better spots close to slopes that we will rent next time.

We got a very nice room with a brilliant view of the mountains for 120 $ a night. 4 of us stayed there comfortably. There are some decent restaurants nearby. There is a bar downstairs. Very well maintained and high tech too.

Our recent vacation involved a stay at Fraser Crossing, one of the more recent additions to the Winter Park Resort Lodging options. Check-​in is through Zephyr Mountain Lodge, but the building is located just across the way adjacent to Founders Pointe.
Accommodations were very clean and surprisingly spacious, leaving us pleased with the value of our studio that we booked on one of their recent specials. A small kitchenette and enormous soaking tub were two of the key amenities we enjoyed most. While the shower head leaves a little something to be desired and the bed/​pillows weren’t optimal, there were very few significant downsides to our stay. Martin W notes thin walls, which may be true, but I’d be more inclined to blame disrespectful guests who ignore the «please no ski gear/​boots in guest rooms» and stomp down the hall with boots clunking and poles clacking. Each guestroom comes with a key to the gear lockers conveniently located in between the elevator and garage to effectively deal with gear.
While we loved the fireplace in our room, it proved incredibly potent — we never had to run the heat a single time, yet our room maintained ~75 °F temp throughout our stay. Even with the fireplace off, we found we occasionally had to crack a window to prevent us from overheating, so at least you’re guaranteed to thaw quickly after a day on the slopes.
The Fraser building has a large hot tub that can fill up apres ski, and the Founders hot tub is larger with an island feature in the center. Feel free to bring your adult beverage to aid the relaxation, but don’t be the jerk who brings glass to a pool area. Invest in Solo cups.
The convenience, cleanliness, and amenities are highlights resulting in a clear bang for the buck at ~$ 140/​night on special. We’d definitely be back.

My most recent stay was December 26, 2012 — January 1, 2013.
I have stayed at different condos at the Zephyr since it opened (about 12 years).
The kitchens are small, but equipped with the essentials. My unit this year had a bonus crock pot. I booked this unit on Home Away. It was the first time I didn’t go thru Intrawest. Only because they were sold out.
I have 3 young children and stay here for the convenience. We get the kids ready and WALK them to ski school. We walk back and ski down to the lift. We ski in for lunch and then walk back to get the kids at the end of their day.
We like to stay in the Slopeside building. It is the closest to the free storage lockers, hot tub and ski lifts.
The parking is under ground. This year they charged me a daily parking fee. Another reason I didn’t give all stars is they wanted to charge me $ 20 a day for a roll away cot. I like having all the kids in a room and not on the sleeper sofa. But, at $ 20 a day, we used the sofa. In years past, they did not charge for the cot.
Great place, will go again soon.

The hotel I stayed in was called Founders Point, right across the street from zephry mountain lodge. You actually check in at zephyr and there are rooms in that building too. So, my room was really great. Perfect, in fact. I had a mini kitchen equipped with mini fridge, sink, microwave oven, stovetop, coffee maker, etc. It was really all I needed. The room did not have A/​C which didn’t bother me too much even though I was on the 6^th floor. The place has a hot tub bigger than a pool and is walking distance to all things in the village of Winter Park Ski Resort.
Cons: I had to walk an unusually long distance from the elevator to my room which was annoying when I was in a hurry or when I was unpacking for a five night stay. They don’t clean the rooms at all so you are on your own to take out the trash, etc. The main lobby is pretty dirty– windows are not cleaned regularly. The people at the front desk AND the reservations line aren’t that nice. In fact, one woman on the reservatsions line was straight up rude to me. I had to hang up on her.
If you can get a good rate then it’s totally worth it to stay here because you can save money in the long run on food, transportation, etc. Winter Park is so much fun in the summer!
