Great space, larger than many. The beds were very comfortable and we had a lovely stay. Dakota lodge is well located.
Our only issue was the elevator, only one and very busy, and apparently (i was told by another guest) the algorithm prioritizes those id watch it go up and down multiple times. Just a long walk to the 5th floor.

Thank you for your review!
Cozy two bedroom two bath. Loved having two king beds for adults stay. Couple things that I would suggest. The kitchen table is entirely too big for that area. The end seats are blocked by a wood slat so you can’t sit comfortably. Also, there should be a stepstool handy. Everything is so high in the kitchen, and for me being 5’3”, I could not get into the cupboards without a chair. Dishwasher stopped working the last day. Elevator is awful. We used the stairs a lot when we could.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review. We will pass along your feedback about the table and a stepstool to the owner. We will also have our mainteance team take a look at the dishwasher.
We had a nice 3-night stay at this penthouse condo in River Run Village at Keystone. The layout and the space are very good for a midsize family. The Dercum Square location is nearly perfect for a Keystone trip: proximity to lifts, dining, and shuttles are great features. We also appreciated the heated underground parking onsite. Beds were comfortable and two kings is a great feature. The unit stayed cold in one of the bedrooms, so I'd plan accordingly on that.

The apartment was well equipped with everything we needed to feel at home. My only issue was that the elevator wasn't working consistently, and being on the 5th floor, getting luggage up and down was a real drag. Even when it was working we had to wait for a loooong time to use it, being the only elevator for the entire building. They should consider installing a second elevator somewhere. But aside from that everything was great. Really nice pool / hot tub area.

This is a nice unit, with is a great view of the mountain. We stayed here previously in years past, and have enjoyed its proximity to River Run. Unfortunately, now there is a condo building being built directly across from the main windows and balcony, roughly 100 feet away.. nail guns, concrete trucks, a vacuum truck...the noise was very loud each morning. We had no idea about this construction so close, which is in addition to the huge Kindred complex being built at the base of the gondola. This will end at some point, but it was bad timing for us.

The location was great, room was in good shape but not having the elevator working for the entire week was a major downfall for our family of 5. Luggage, groceries and every day in/out was a chore for us and our young kids because we were on the 5th floor. We were notified in advance it was out of service, but I expected someone to be working on them. We did not see any maintenance during our stay and were told the HOA was aware they needed fixed.

Your check out time was at 10AM, which was 53 minutes after you called us. Our staff stated that they would send maintenance to take a look at these two items as soon as they could, however we had other urgent service orders in progress so we could not make it to the unit within 53 minutes of your phone call. However, our team has since addressed those two items.

Thank you for your review!
This was a very nice unit, in a good building. The view of the slopes and lifts at River Run are great, but there were a few things that made our stay less than perfect. The bed frame in the second bedroom squeaked whenever you moved in bed, even the smallest movement made noise. If that was not enough, one of the radiators in this room, also made gurgling noise all night. It made it difficult to sleep in this room. The full bath also has an issue with the bath control valve. It appears it was assembled incorrectly, and the hot and cold are reversed. This could be very dangerous if you forget, and try to turn down the hot, only to increase it. To top it off the dishwasher is old and tired, and does not clean dishes very well, and is missing many wheels on the lower rack.

Our stay was great! Perfect size condo for family of four. Clean and well stocked kitchen. Walk to gondola was a good 200 yards. Not too bad even in ski boots. Dillon close by for cheaper groceries. Pricey in keystone but that’s to be expected. Hot tubs and heated pool were great at the end of long day of skiing.

Great unit located at the corner of the top floor--very quiet.Good view of the mountain. Master bed was comfortable & unit had everything we needed & more. Only complaints were that the TV remote in the living room never worked properly. Management finally sent someone & even couldn't get it completely fixed. Dishwasher is not mounted to counter and the rollers need replacing--it was a hassle using it. Elevators are slow when the building is full, but great location to everything.

We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We can understand how frustrating it is to be on the 5th floor without a working elevator. Unfortunately the HOA had to close the elevator for emergency repairs.
This property reflects pride of ownership and was perfect for our party’s needs consisting of 2 couples. The property has a nice view and was in great condition with newer flooring and furniture. The conversation grouping with couch and chair in the living area was very useful for socializing.
When we arrived, we were very impressed and pleased with the high level of cleanliness of the condo, Kudos to the cleaning crew! We contacted Summit Mountain Retreats with a request for coffee that was missing and an additional condo key for our party which were promptly provided.
Those planning to rent should be aware that as a penthouse condo, slanting eves reduce the size of the bedrooms. The smaller of the two bedrooms is limited to a skylight that can be cracked open an inch or so for air which could be problematic during hot spells. However, there were multiple electric fans in the condo. The kitchen prep area was nicely equipped and a bit cramped, appropriate for one occupant at a time.

Nice unit. Beautiful views. Walking to lifts in keystone has always been a thing and it still is, so it was as expected. Rental company was responsive to our requests. One negative was when they told me to call another number to clean up a mess in the garage I reported. That was odd...they should have done the calling not me. Secondly, no one had cleaned under the furniture. Lastly, new, larger frying pans are needed. Overall great stay.

After 69 years my biological brother and I found each other. Keystone was about 1/2 way between our homes so we decided to meet for the 1st time at your property. We had to move to 3 different condos due to maintenance issues with leaky and plugged up sinks. We also had to fix a window when its arm came off. All condos were nice, but the lighting seemed not as bright as it should have been. The bath tubs were slippery and could have used bathmats and some grab bars for security. All condos were clean with good appliances. Through the issues the rental staff was outstanding in their assistance to make our stay enjoyable. Brittany was especially helpful working through all the issues. Thank you Brittany!! We enjoyed strolling through Frisco and taking in the many overlooks in the area. We visited the Dam Brewery in Dillon twice for dinner--nice place. Had the opportunity to see a number of moose in and around the property. Would recommend this property to others as well as considering returning during September. Again, thanks to Brittany and the staff for all you did.

Overall the property was clean, check in and check out were a breeze. We had a great time.
Positives include:
The kitchen was well equipped.
We really enjoyed the view of the slopes.
The sofa was comfortable with plenty of room for the four of us.
High ceilings made it feel spacious.
Plenty of high quality towels and pillows provided.
Both King Beds were very comfortable.
Here are a few things to be aware of:
1) With no on-site assistance, it takes a little while to get minor issues corrected. When we arrived we immediately noticed that one of our three keys didn't work (not sure why we didn't get four) and there were only two hangers in the entire unit. We texted the number provided and both issues were resolved by around noon the following day.
2) The TV (Dish network) would shut off and reset several times a day. Also, the remote controls did not work great but once we figured out exactly where to point them, it was fine.
3) Wi-Fi was just okay - in the evenings it was too slow to be able to watch a movie on Netflix or Amazon without constant interruption. Also, although the wi-fi password was provided in the instructions, it would be nice if the code were written down somewhere in the unit.
4)The second bedroom, equipped with a comfy king bed (which we expected to be like a second master) had pretty poor lighting, no bedside tables and no drawers! (Having no hangers made it seem worse as it was nearly impossible to unpack when we arrived).
5) Time to change the carpets - I understand it is a ski rental, but there are numerous stains from guests and leaky windows/skylights
6) Some of the outlets don't work - or if you try to plug in a phone charger, it just falls out.
A few comments about Dakota Lodge:
Underground parking was excellent.
Ski Locker room was very convenient (on the first floor) but it smelled horrible.
Only one elevator.
Overall - Good place -

The Rooms were very nice but we did find a few hiccups. The TV in the master didn't work, the ice maker stopped working, we found shoes and a bead bracelet, under the bed in the master so that told me the room was not cleaned very well and there was a blood stain on the 2nd bedroom bedspread. Other than that it was a nice stay. I would have like the room to have had more supplies like foil and containers but I guess each rental is different in things they supply. The views were spectacular. Too bad the village wasn't open so we wouldn't have had to go into town for more choices of dinning.

The area is great. We hiked a lot and enjoyed gorgeous views and weather. So many great places to eat. The condo was really pretty but needs some fixing. I read how one reviewer said theee was no hot water. Most of the faucets seem to run backwards. The hot is where the cold is. The second bedroom mattress is just bad. Felt like cardboard on springs. It seemed like every window in the place had issues. The cupboards in the kitchen will need hinges repair soon. The living room furniture is worn out and ripped up where the hideabed goes. The master bedroom is perfect. All in all it’s a great place and very nice. It just needs a few repairs that aren’t huge. For the price we paid, yep, we will go again.

The 2 bedroom unit was clean and well kept. There were hotel soaps and toiletries in each room, enough for 2 days. If staying longer, bring extra. There were tissues, paper towel, and lots of towels for the stay. The view of the mountain from the top floor was absolutely wonderful. Plenty of extra blankets and pillows if needed. They had 3 fans provided, humidifiers in the closet if needed as well as a pack n play at the ready. Really family focused and the kitchen had the basics if we had decided to cook. The couch is a little tired, but in good condition and both queen beds were very comfortable. There are 3 modern tv's and netflix was available in the master. Very nice feature. The room was quiet and an easy 5-10 min. walk to the little village of Keystone and the lifts are maybe a 15 min walk in ski boots. This is our second stay at Dakota lodge and the building is very clean and well maintained and we like that it isn't in the center to avoid the extra noise from the restaurants at night so kids can crash. Parking garage is easy to utilize. We had to call the office twice for assistance with opening the ski storage and an issue with a neighbor. They immediately notified Keystone and assistance on both occasions was there within 5 minutes. We prefer Keystone due to family atmosphere and that you don't need a car or to take the shuttle to go out to dinner like in Breckenridge or Beaver Creek. Kids love the ski school here and the mountain has lots of options for various levels. FYI- The Sauna is co-ed so bring a bathing suit and the pool and hot tub outside are very clean.

We've stayed in several of the units in River Run at Buffalo and Dakota lodge. We've never been disappointed and this was no exception. The unit was well stocked, the fireplace worked flawlessly, and the kitchen was well stocked. There was initially a lack of a skillet for making breakfast which was resolved within the hour. Overall, we love location and this unit was great. Over the years, we're noticing some of the building's amenities are becoming well used. While the party room is still a beautiful escape, the pool tables are becoming worn (one was ripped) and the pool/hottubs are aging. One hottub was experiencing issues while we were there. This isn't unexpected, hopefully they continue to invest in maintenance and updates.

My husband and I stayed in this condo for 4 days on a ski trip to Keystone in December 2016. The view from the living room/kitchen is incredible with all the windows and I loved the vaulted ceilings. This condo felt like home. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to make meals at home and there was plenty of space in the bedrooms and bathrooms for storage. There were tons of extra towels, blankets and pillows as well as a whole basket of classic DVDs in the living room. The pilot light for the fireplace was out when we arrived so I called maintenance and they had it fixed within a few hours of our arrival which I was very impressed with.
Both mattresses were very soft which some people may like, for us it was a little too soft, but that's just personal preference. Other than the mattresses, we absolutely loved staying here!

Nice split bedroom design with bathroom for each bedroom.(Privacy) Larger condo than the others rented by family meeting here for our Christmas celebration. Lovely newer kitchen and granite counters. Nice partial view of slopes.Steps from the little village town with tons of small shops and restaurants. The smaller bedroom of the two needs a matress topper desperately. It was very very firm and we had a hard time sleeping on it. Also lighting in the small bedroom was horrible. Needed a flash light even durning the day. Also we could hear running water all the time in both bedrooms. We think it was gutters but not sure. Please bring foil, plastic wrap and baggies as none were supplied.
The town had a plethora of events for families and we were nevere bored. We will come back.

It is hard to imagine how we could provide more signage. There are no less than 5 redundant signs and three sets of duplicate driving directions sent to all guests.
Our office is not in the building, but then again this is true for all management companies because our properties are residences, not businesses. We are not a hotel. We are a condo management company. If guests want a hotel experience for their vacation, Keystone is not the place to come. If you want a large place to stay with a full kitchen, separate bedrooms and bathrooms and all the comforts of home, Keystone is right for you. If you want a front desk, one small room and room service, then a hotel is right for you.
Although we visited during the "off season", our stay was wonderful. 23 were so comfortable and felt at home in your condo. Thank you for our stay!

Stayed there 8/10-8/15 for a wedding. Check-in was easy. The condo was very clean and looked just as advertised. There was enough room inside that we used it as a gathering place for all 5 groomsmen to dress and get ready and still had space to spread out. Kitchen was fully stocked with cooking accessories and bathrooms fully stocked with extra towels. We used the humidifiers stored in the closets and they were a lifesaver in the dry mountain air. Several reviewers complained about the couch, while it is older there is nothing wrong with it and it is still comfortable. I'm quite tall and could lay down all the way. Can't think of anything I would change, would definitely stay there again.

The property was wonderful. It was clean and just as pictures showed. Could have had more towels but we made due. The one thing being a flat lander, I wish it would have mentioned the humidifiers in the closet. That may have helped with the altitude affects. We didn't see it until we were packing to leave. Otherwise a very comfortable stay :-) Slow elevator since it is located on top floor.

Beautiful Keystone condo. Clean and comfortable. No air conditioning, but after opening the windows and slider, it cooled off during the night. Lots of activities in the area for family summer vacation. My family enjoyed the pool, hot tubs and mini golf at The Dakota. Free gondola rides at Breckenridge with a good number of fun activities at the summit (those aren't free). Keystone also has a number of family activities; free gondola rides on Friday afternoon with some free family activities at the summit. Great restaurants in the area; check Frisco out as they have a number of diverse restaurants (i.e.; The Lost Cajun, Butterhorn Bakery, The Boat Yard). Close by is the Dillon Dam Brewery and The Red Mountain Grill; both very good. Silverthorne has a nice outlet mall.

Overall it was a very nice weekend with family. Close to activities in the village and quiet at night. The large sofa shows a lot of wear and one of the cabinet doors was broken. Would advise to put some $s into the unit to make it a bit more inviting.

We stayed the first week of June when resort restaurants were closed, which made for a lovely quiet and restful vacation! We almost had the pool and hot tub to ourselves every afternoon. The hikes were snow-free (mostly) Ptarmigan peak, Mesa Cortina to Waterfall and Gore Range Trail, (buffalo cabin had a bit of snow). Condo very roomy and lots of fans helped us cool it down in evening. Being on top floor means no hearing people uostairs! The coffee was good, fridge and all appliances clean. Nice place for quiet hiking vacation with our teens. Very easy to pick up keys, there was elevator with carts for bringing up our stuff (no carrying up multiple flights!) Beautiful building and the pool area faced beautiful mountains.

I thought the place was great but have two complaints: First, the furnace in the guest room was so loud, kept making strange clicking/groaning noises all night and kept our guests awake. Second, it would be nice to know that every single bar and restaurant in the Keystone was closed during our stay. We literally couldn't find anywhere to get dinner and it was disappointing not to have been provided this info prior to our stay so we could have planned ahead.

We are always happy to answer questions that our guests have. However, we believe guests should take responsibility for researching their own vacations. The Keystone resort closed 3 weeks prior to this guests stay. We made no claims about any businesses being opened or closed. The fact that the rental rates are 80% lower than peek season should have been an indication that there was not a lot happening at this time. Also, if the guest had called our 24/7 help line we would have been happy to direct them to some open restaurants. There are several that are open year round in Keystone.
The location is very good. About the general facilities, there's only one elevator for the full building, it takes quite a long time to get to your car or to the lobby.
The sofa needs an urgent update. The courtain hanger in one of the rooms was down, I fixed it temporarily and let the management team know about it, and they never did. you need to work on that.

Thank you for staying with us.
The new carpet, appliances and good quality king sized beds made this vacation really comfortable. We loved sitting on the cozy balcony and watching the skiers.

It was a nice condo. Beds were comfortable and kitchen had good pans and dishes. It was also very close to grocery store, restaurants and lifts. Sofa is getting a little beat up. Overall good for price.

Perfect for skiing

Actually, everything about and associated with this condo and complex were great.Nothing really to complain about. We enjoyed the hot tubs, sauna, and most of all the slopes. We had everything we needed and if we needed something, it was there or close. Also, this particular condo had the best view in the building. will look for it next year..

The weather was great, the skiing was wonderful!!

We couldn't have been happier with the condo and its location. We were able to walk to the gondola every morning and to the hot tub after a long day of skiing. The condo itself was in great condition and very clean. The beds were extremely comfortable and the carpet looked new. The sectional sofa provided tons of seating for 4 adults. The only problem we had was that property management turned off the water from 11am-5pm. Being early season some building maintence is to be expected. We will definitely stay here again!!

Thank you for staying with SCMR. We appreciate your understanding about the water shut off for maintenance. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Everything you described was true. The condo was in great shape, parking garage was clean and the location great for everyone. Staff was amazing we found out that the remote for the main TV was missing. I called it in around 9pm and the remote was replaced the next morning. Trip was relaxing. The boys some great golf in, while the wives attacked the shopping outlets. Just a win win situation for everyone..

We had a fantastic time. The condo was great. The condo was spacious, clean and just beautiful. The king sized beds were very nice and from experience not common in rental properties. I only wish you had a vacuum available in the unit.

We had a wonderful stay in Keystone. Very great time and place for a low-key family vacation with children under five years old.

The condo itself was good the elevator was down for several hours so everyone had to carry luggage up and down stairs. It made it very difficult for everyone to get up and down the stairs.

Our family of five stayed for two night at the Dakota Lodge this summer. It was great for getting out and walking through the river run area. The condo was clean and in good working order. We had a couple small issues trying to do laundry but nothing terrible. great stay!
