We took a long week weekend and made a vacation out of our stay at Alta Crystal Resort. After a long drive, it was great to get our kids into the outdoor heated pool. I couldn't believe how nice it was for May in the Pacific Northwest. The heated, large and clean pool provided hours of entertainment for our girls,... More

First of all, I was "forced" into this reservation, as apparently I made an error when booking this room and they would NOT let me out of the reservation - they have a very strict "no cancellation" policy and there is no way around it, no way, no matter what. So, instead of losing my money, I decided to honor... More

We are sorry that this guest was not happy with their stay. We hope you will read our other positive reviews and judge for yourself. We feel the need to respond to her assertion/accusation about her ring. When she called and said she thought she might have left a ring in the room, we immediately checked the room and did... More

This resort is located very close to Crystal Mt. The loft suite was very nice although the honeymoon cabin is better, much better, but it was built to be nice. It is not that far from the great Mt. Ranier Nat. Park and is much nicer than the Paradise lodge "the only accomidations inside the park". Really at Paradise lodge... More

We had our wedding on top Crystal Mountain and our reception at Alta Crystal Resort. The staff was unbelievable in making our stay special. From help with catering, (the food prepared by Vivan was exceptional!), decorating, meeting our special needs, and wonderful accomodations, we couldn't have dreamnt our wedding day any better. We reserved 5 rooms to include the honeymoon... More

I have stayed at Alta Crystal Resort three times, and each time has been a warm, cozy, pleasant experience. Every room accommodation has a fireplace with instructions on how to make a perfect fire. Every bathroom has quaint and appropriate decorations and bathroom necessaties expected in a mountain resort. Every room was clean, and the beds are very comfortable with... More

we just returned yesterday from our week long ski/snowboard trip to alta crystal resort. our room was spotless, the bed comfortable, and nearly everything worked just fine. the staff was great and we enjoyed the extra activities, including everyone's atrocious singing at karaoke. probably due to the complementary wine. last week was the record snows and rains in the area...

We were on a vacation after the christmas holiday we chose Alta Crystal Resort. We pulled up and it looked very nice, you could see steam rising off the heated pool and hot tub. We walked in to the lobby to check in and when we told them we had an extra car the manager freaked out and was very... More

Thank you, Manhatttan Traveler, for your kind words. Yes, I am one of the owners and yes, I enjoy my job. I especially have fun at the evening events since it makes our place more personal and I've met many, many wonderful people over the years whom I would never have met in my "old" life before Alta Crystal Resort....

The staff here are good folks and it pains me to leave this feedback but this pricey place leaves much to be desired. The setting is wonderful, near crystal mountain and the national park. We checked into a room filled with smoke. The front desk says this on rare occasion happens due to weather inversion but can be handled but... More

We just finished our holiday season and we are happy that the vast majority of our guests had a great time, and many reserved for next year at the time they left. It always pains us to find out someone did not find us up to par as we try very hard to meet and exceed guest expectations. We are... More

Just a short drive from Mt Crystal resort/chair lift, we stayed here with friends this past August. What a nice little respite!! Comfortable rooms, and a beautiful location for hikes, etc... the Proprietors were very nice, and had a 'BBQ' dinner that was 'to die for'. At a cost that was "complimentary" ie: you put your donation in a 'tin... More

My girlfriend and I just returned from a weekend in the Honeymoon Cabin at Alta Crystal Resort. To wrap the experience up in a word it would be PHENOMENAL. We were immediately more comfortable than we could have hoped to expect the instant we walked in. The quality of the facility was first rate. We were keen on being able... More
