“generous and friendly”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 30, 2012

We spend the week before Christmas (2011) in Swan Mountain Resort. We had a two bed room and a loft, 2-3/4 bath. Hugh space for three of us. We stayed on the third floor, no elevator but it is OK.
The resort is very generous in providing all kinds of household supplies. More than any other RCI resorts I have been to.
The front desk seems always have all sorts of drinks, deserts, snack son the table for the guests. I don't know if they always do that or because it is the holiday season. But it is very generous to provide that much drinks and foods.
The charged $16 per week for the Internet. I think it is unnecessary since most of the other resort provide the internet free.
We skied in Beaver Creek ( 45 minutes drive) and Breckenridge (25 minutes drive through Swan Mountain Road). Key Stone (less than 10 minutes drive) is closer but the snow was not good in December.
Town Dillon and Silverthorne are close by. Very convenient with grocery, gas shopping etc.
Swan Mountain Road (Short cut from Dillon to Breckenridge) is beautiful. In the middle, you can stop and take a short walk on the trail overview lake Dillon.

“Friendly staff, nice ammenities”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 22, 2012

We've been coming to Swan Mountain resort for over 10 years now, since becoming owners of the "house" owned by the resort. In that time we have seen continued efforts to improve the resort experience for it's owners. They have 2 weekly gatherings at the club house we free appetizers and drinks (including beer and wine). The pool in the club house is quite nice as are both the indoor and outdoor hot tubs.

The staff is friendly and attentive. Any time we've had a minor issue (burned out bulb, broken kitchen utensil, etc) they have been very very prompt in replacing/repairing it with just a call.

it is nice being away from the crowds, cost and bustle of the resorts, but you're within a 45 min. drive of Vail, 15 min. of Copper Mountain and Breckenridge, and 5 min from Keystone.

This is also great for families--our kids love participating in and winning the daily trivia question, the "guess the jar" (guess how many fuzzy balls or jelly beans in a jar), the paper airplane contest, the coloring contests (everyone wins). They win free movie rentals and coffee mugs filled with candy. There is air hockey and fuse ball in the club house.

Some of the furniture is a bit dated in the "house" where we stay, but the condos seem to be more updated. Also, the televisions are still the old Tube TVs and really could stand updating soon, but based upon the history of the resort I think that will happen soon as they are always updating and improving each of the condos. They definitely earn their RSI gold rating.

Room Tip: The "house", when available, has it's own hot tub, sauna, 2 fire places, full size kit...

“Love this place!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 14, 2011

We have had the opportunity to come to Swan Mountain for the last few years in November and I have to say we love this place. We can't afford to ski and shop everyday so we spend quite a bit of time in the clubhouse. The pool is always clean and warm and we have a ton of fun playing foosball and air hockey. The staff is always sweet and helpful.

“Swan Mountain Resort is Excellent!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 21, 2011

We were in Dillon from October 1-8. Our Colorado trip was to do lots of sights seeing and enjoy the colors of the Aspens. The location was great for doing our day trips. We were greeted by friendly staff and our 2 bedroom accommodations were wonderful. Swan Mountain is one of the best stocked units we have ever stayed in. Their attention to detail did not go unnoticed. We did not have a chance to use the pool or hot tubs but enjoyed our home away from home at the end of each day.

Room Tip: We loved being on the top floor with the open ceiling.

“Hidden gem !!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 20, 2011

An excellent timeshare and also nightly rental establishment. We had a two bedroom with loft, which included three bathrooms, fully stocked kitchen, washer and dryer and nice covered sun deck. The indoor pool is immaculate, along with the indoor hot tub and an outside hot tub, both extremely clean and hot.
