The staff is very caring with a lighthearted spirit that shouts out “Lighten Up” to all its travelers. They bring the outdoors in which is reflected in the design & comfort throughout the hotel.

The new 99 room Limelight Hotel features an Ice skating rink, climbing wall, ski-in-ski-out access, Base Village restaurants, rental shops, stores, & bars. Relax & soak those tired muscles in the two heated Jacuzzi pools which are the size of swimming pools. Free ski storage is right outside the door by the Rental shop & the Elk Camp Gondola. Convenience is the name of the game. The fitness center in the hotel is high tech and the family game room has activities for the whole family.
