We love the Nordic Center. The trails are excellent. The lodging is adequate. We've stayed in Aspen Lodge, Silver Sage, and Indian Peaks. Aspen Lodge and Silver Sage have bunk beds along with queen beds, and never seem to have enough lighting. Walls are very thin and there's no TV. The Y is focused on family time, which is ok, but a lot of parents allow their kids to run up and down the halls, being noisy way past quiet hour (10pm). The atriums in Aspen Lodge and Silver Sage reverberate with noise. Indian Peaks is lacking the bunk beds but it can still be very noisy so we avoid these rooms at all costs during weekends and holidays. The lodges and rooms are older, and the animal heads mounted in the atriums are offensive to some of us. With that said, during the week can be very nice, and the trails are right outside the lodges. Dining is very limited at the Y, so be prepared to bring microwave food if you don't want to drive into town/or miss the dining hours. The employees here tend to be very nice and helpful. I left my purse in my room one time after check out and the cleaning people made sure I got it back. The views around the Y and from the trails are gorgeous. This review is not meant to be negative, just an honest assessment because we've been staying here for years.
