Excellent job on the remodel, and updated WiFi and Smart TV are appreciated (especially during March Madness). This is a good looking, functional, and comfortable unit. We had yet another fantastic ski trip with Winter Park Lodging Company. Usually stay in Riverside building (not a value judgement, we just slightly prefer the ski access) but 1601 is a winner all the way around.
MANAGER'S COMMENTS: So wonderful to hear this Taylor! Thank you for being a many time return guest. The team was glad to hear you enjoyed Zephyr Mountain Lodge 1601 and all the updates! We look forward to welcoming you back again. Happy Spring!

Zephyr is a great location and Unit 1601 was very nice. The unit was very clean, and all furniture, electronics and accessories worked perfectly. I was aware of the heat situation, and the unit was comfortable with the thermostat set to 55 degrees and a few windows cracked. We had no issues so we did not need to call for service. We arrived early, and called to learn that our unit was ready early. Thanks for a nice stay!
MANAGER COMMENTS: Excellent....very happy to read this! We do hope you'll join us again Charles. Your return guest discount awaits! ~ The Winter Park Lodging Company Team

This apartment is perfect for a family of four. It is located right on the spot and perfect for almost everything. Ski-in ski-out with a big ski locker and you can literally ski down to the gondola in about 10 seconds. The apartment itself is on the quiet side of the building facing the mountain and is well equipped with pretty much everything you could need. The hot tubs outside the building were great after a day on the slopes and the gas fireplace in the apartment makes sure you are cozy and warm as you watch the snow fall outside the window. The furnishings are tasteful and the place is an amazing winter escape for families looking for a quiet but well located apartment. The communication from WPLC was also first rate and we will definitely book through them again if we return to Winter Park for another race camp. Five stars!
MANAGER COMMENTS: Fantastic! We are all so pleased to read all this. We would be thrilled to host you again for next race camp. Just give us a call and your return guest discount shall be applied! Thanks Jon

We stayed in 1601 and it was fantastic. Wonderful views, excellent customer service, and loved that the unit had spices and other kitchen items that you don't usually get in a rental. This was our 3rd time at Zephyr and we will definitely be back!
MANAGER'S COMMENTS: Super! Thank you Kinzie for sharing your vacation with us. We look forward to hosting you again at Zephyr Mountain Lodge 1601.

We stayed in 1601 with our adult son and his wife, 2 couples in all. It was the prefect setup. The place is small but the owners have thought of everything. The furniture was all very comfortable. Great beds. The kitchen is small but so efficient. Had everything we needed. And the condo was super clean. Loved that we could text someone and get an immediate nice response about questions. We will be back!
MANAGER'S COMMENTS: We are so glad Zephyr Mountain Lodge 1601 was a great fit for you and your family! Give us a call when you're planning your next adventure to Winter Park! ~ Alex and the Winter Park Lodging Company Team

Nice place to relax listening to the breeze push through the trees on the deck. During the summer in Colorado we take advantage of the cooler evenings to freshen up a hot house but this was not an option because there are no screens on the windows. If you leave the windows open without screens you will be sharing the house with mosquitoes, gnats & anything else that flys or even crawls to the lights inside. This would not be to big a deal if any of these condos had AC, but they do not. Not sure if any condos in WP have AC to tell the truth. So if you like a hot west wind from an oscillating Greek god fan you should have a comfortable stay. The flatscreens in all the rooms equipped with Apple TV was great & kept my kids entertained until they fell asleep. If it was my place I would tweak some things, like the kitchen sink position, window screens and lighting over the master tub/shower but @ this point I might just be complaining to much. Bottom line it was good enough to shower and get some sleep slope-side. Would be great for a winter time stay. I will be gunning for my next summer stay in a 2 bed condo across the creek & street from here on out.
MANAGER COMMENTS: So sorry you ran into issues. We don't usually hear of any bug troubles so high up on the 6th floor of that building. Most of our guests are happy to just open the windows and let the bug-less air come on in! We'll visit with the HOA in getting the screen reset in there. Hope we can find the right fit for you next visit!

My family and I have traveled all over the US and often work thru rental management companies to set up our accommodations. From the minute I made our reservations, until the actual arrival in Winter Park and during our stay, I was impressed and relieved with the attention and care Winter Park Lodging Co gave. Zephyr Mtn. Lodge 1601 was just as I saw in the photos, clean and comfortable with all the expected amenities. We would rent the same unit again!
MANAGER COMMENTS: Fantastic! So many thanks for letting us know Cynthia. We are always striving to give our guests the best properties and best experience. We hope to work with you whenever your travels bring you back this way. Thank you!

Slopeside 1601 was the perfect spot for our family of five! The room was the right size. The location at the base was great. Ski locker on the second floor, then just walk over to the second floor exit, up a small hill, then ski down to the gondola/private lesson center. 1st floor entrance is just steps from the West Portal, Starbucks, Lime (great hot chocolate), and Pizza Pedal’r for the best pizza in Colorado! (Pizza Pedal’r has great gluten free pizza if, like me, you have a family member with celiac.) The management company was also very responsive. Plus a 15% discount for return guests. Will definitely rent from Winter Park Lodging Co and/or Steamboat Lodging Co in the future.
MANAGER COMMENTS: Fantastic! Many thanks for sharing all your nuggets and experience. We are all so pleased you had a great time with your family.....it's what it's all about! Hope to host you again soon.

Lovely stay at 1601!
MANAGER COMMENTS: Wonderful! Thanks for letting us know.
By Shannon, Posted: 03/12/2020
Very exquisite place. Loved the condo and the ease to the slopes. Is truly a ski in ski out. Everything was right there for you. Really never needed to leave the resort area. Very fun experience.
MANAGER COMMENTS: Wonderful to hear! Many thanks for letting us know. We hope you'll come back to stay with us again!
By Carol, Posted: 01/22/2020
We loved our stay at this unit. Plenty of room for 2 couples - both in king beds with separate bathrooms! Definitely close to the slopes - very little walking required. Extra paper towels, toilet paper, and even spices in the kitchen. Would definitely stay again!
MANAGER COMMENTS: Excellent! Thanks for sharing your stay with us Carol. Please reach out to us again when you come back this way.
By Clancy, Posted: 12/09/2019
The ski in ski out condo was perfect for a short stay at Winter Park. Very convenient and comfy! Newly decorated with great beds.
MANAGER COMMENTS: Excellent! The new updates are just right in there. We are so pleased you enjoyed. Let us know when you're back this way.
By Christine, Posted: 03/17/2019
The condo was very well located and really is a ski-in/ski-out. It was very cozy, clean and had everything we needed. Plenty of space for our family of 4. The resort had good restaurants so no need to leave if you don't want to. The free shuttle was very convenient and took us whereever we needed to go. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this condo.
MANAGER COMMENTS: Thanks for sharing your stay Christine. We are so pleased you enjoyed staying with us at the Zephyr 1601 property. Please call us again when you're back this way.
By Kyle, Posted: 01/28/2019
The location, amenities were all just what we needed. Nice spot and just what you'd want for 2 bedroom property on the mountain.
MANAGER COMMENTS: Oh great to hear! We do hope you'll come back to stay with us next time you're back this way.
By Tina, Posted: 07/12/2018
We all enjoyed staying for a couples' getaway. That moose is great! We enjoyed exploring the area and dining at the Village restaurant options.....all were wonderful and recommended!
MANAGER COMMENTS: Yay! Vertical is one of my favs......well, and of course Goody's!! So pleased you enjoyed your time up in the mountains.
By Jeremy, Posted: 03/02/2018
Great Rental with good proximity to the slopes. All the comforts of home on the mountain. Staff was very accommodating.
MANAGER COMMENTS: Oh great! We are so pleased you enjoyed staying with us. Do let us know when you come back to Winter Park.
By Denise, Posted: 01/03/2018
We enjoyed our visit to winter park this year for a week of skiing. 5 of us easily managed in this two bedroom condo. The kitchen had everything we needed, given that we cooked most evenings during our stay. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms clean. It does get a bit toasty due to heat rising from lower floors, but the windows open for mountain air conditioning. The condo is located at the base allowing for shopping, rentals, restaurants, ice skating and tubing. Ski access located on 2 nd floor with your own locker available to put away skis for the day....lifesaver! The base has plenty of activities for skiers and non skiers in your family. No car needed as a shuttle can take you where you’d like to go. We enjoyed our stay and would do so again.
MANAGER COMMENTS: We are so pleased you enjoyed the Zephyr. It is a super convenient location for all things at the Resort. Please do give us a call when you head back to the mountains. We'd love to get to host you again!
By Roxanne, Posted: 07/07/2017
This apartment is compact, clean, and efficient. The master bedroom is lovely, and spacious and the king bed is super comfortable. However, the dining area is very tight. Be careful of the adjustable table, it can snag your fingers if you're not careful. If you have a large group, you may not be comfortable here, if you're just a small family, and hopefully a close family, you'll be alright. There are no screens, so prepare for bugs in the summer, but the mountain air is lovely, it can come through just as well through a screen. We were not too fond of the mosquitos. The invest in some screens would go a long way for guests.
MANAGER'S COMMENTS: Roxanne, thank you for coming year after year. I remember you from way back in 2011! We will let the owners know about the screens. Thank you for bringing our attention to that. See you next summer!
By Dan, Posted: 01/20/2017
Love the ski in, ski out set up. The condo was clean and nicely decorated with all needed amenities. The only downfall was that we wished that some of the master suite space had been in the living/dining area as it was a bit small.
MANAGER'S COMMENTS...We can't move the walls, but we can find a larger property for your next visit. Give us a call to book soon.
By John, Posted: 08/11/2016
I have rented many units through the years and Winter Park Lodging Company provided the best experience I've ever had. My experience began when I accidentally rented my unit on the wrong dates. The lady I talked with was friendly and helpful. The company provides an app that provides lots of useful information. Then, prior to arriving, I received two phone calls making sure everything was ok for our travel to Winter Park.
Upon arrival, our family was pleased to see that the unit at Zephyr Mountain Lodge was as good as the pictures showed it on the site. The unit was easy to get into upon arrival with the key card access in the unit's mailbox. Checkout was also easy just needing to start the dishwasher and leave the keys in the unit.
The special touches to finish off the exceptional service were the welcome note on company notepad and a box of chocolates on the counter.
Manager's Comments...So glad we were able to change your dates and everything worked out.You can't beat the mountains in the summertime! We would love to host you and your family again soon!
By Lori, Posted: 03/29/2016
Our stay at #1601 ZML was fantastic! The condo was very clean and the "moose decor" was a perfect fit! All of the necessary kitchen pots, pans, and miscellaneous utensils were provided so that we could cook for our family. Best of all is the ski in/ski-out facility so that we could take a break and warm up at lunch before heading back out to the slopes for the afternoon. Thanks for a great vacation stay!
By Charles, Posted: 03/22/2016
Thanks for a great stay in the Slopeside building. Kudos to the staff for being super attentive pre- and post-stay. I received multiple communications before making sure I knew how to check in and that everything went smoothly, and was contacted during and after my stay to check in and make sure everything went well. Also, I forgot something in the unit and Winter Park Lodging Company was kind enough to get it sent back to me (at my cost of course, it was my fault). This was done via excellent integration with chargerback software. Would stay again! Manager Comments: Well thanks Charles! We are so happy we could be of help. Glad you got your things back in a timely manner. Hope to see you again soon.
By Brian, Posted: 01/27/2016
The Zephyr Mountain Lodge was a great place to stay! The parking garage made it nice not to have to scrape ice or snow off your car and it was very convenient to jump on the elevator and head to your room. The lodge was really close to the Zephyr lift and you could be on the mountain within a couple minutes. The lodge was also very close to several restaurants in the Winter Park Resort. The staff at Winter Park Resort was amazing with following up to make sure we had everything we needed during our stay. We will definitely stay here again when we come to Winter Park.
By Michael, Posted: 01/12/2016
We had a great stay in Zephyr mountain lodge #1601. The condo was well comfortable. We appreciated the kitchen being well stocked with utensils and spices.
The only complaint is the same as every other complaint. The condo gets quite warm in the evenings and we had to open the windows. More fans or ceiling fans to create air flow would make the condo perfect.
By Dierick, Posted: 12/25/2015
We had a great trip to winter park. We stayed 4 nights. The condo was positioned perfectly for skiing. The setup with a bunk bed and full in one room and a queen in the other allowed all 5 of us to have a bed. The condo had everything we needed. The only slightly bad thing was even without turning on the heat it was burning up in the condo. We simply opened the windows and the balcony door and that took care of the heat issue. I loved the app that walked us through everything we needed from check in to check out.
Message from management:
We have received your feedback about the heating in the Zephyr 1601 and have informed the building owners. They are in the process of checking into specific valves to see if certain properties might be overheating and why. We thank you for letting us know so we can get that fixed asap. Happy New Year!
By Travis, Posted: 12/19/2015
We kept the door open at night so we could sleep. We kept the heater off at all times. Room was great otherwise. Clean and great location. Nice to have the parking below!
Manager Comments: Our apologies for your discomfort! We've got our Winter Park Lodging Company "bros" on the case to find the cause of the excessive heat up there. We are glad the parking was convenient for your stay with us. We hope to get to see you in the future. Thank you.
By Terri, Posted: 03/25/2015
From the time of booking, the process was made so easy ~the emails from staff and follow up phone calls, all were helpful! Your customer service was excellent! Upon arriving, we appreciated the welcome gift of chocolates and was pleased with room and how clean it was. It was a great experience...will definitely be back!
Thank you!
By Cathy, Posted: 02/02/2015
Really liked the location. This is the first time we've stayed in the Zephyr and we plan to return. Check-in was quick and easy. The phone app is fantastic and the snow was great! Can't wait to be back!
By Ina, Posted: 01/27/2015
This is one of the nicest Zephyr properties I've stayed in. The owner has done some nice upgrades. I usually stay here because of the convenience of having a full kitchen. Plus you can't beat the location. I'll be back again soon.
By Phil, Posted: 12/16/2014
Winter Park Lodging Company is the only company we stay with every time we visit Winter Park. THeir level of service is incredible and every member of staff we've ever had contact with has been friendly and helpful. This apartment was clean and nicely furnished with everything we needed for our stay.
