Great for a stay for 2, right in the middle of everything and Starbucks at your feet. Check and and loading is a bit of a pain but other than that if location and ski-in ski-out is what your are looking for it’s wonderful!
The lodge was very nice parking is horrible was told park our truck along the road. The sleeper sofa is all springs couldn't use it. The room was not stocked with toilet paper.

Love the location! Disliked the elevator not working and the we were on the 4th floor…. Luggage was a nightmare. Our room had one toilet paper roll and no one to call for more, they charge for towels to be switched out. Was not that impressed with Rimfire.

Everything was great accept the shower head was not working correctly. It just trickles so that was frustrating after a long ski day. You need a good hot shower.

We've been going to Snowshoe for years and decided to try a new place because the price and hot tub facing the sunset. We were a bit let down with the room, also got hit with an additional $206 resort charge once we arrived. The room was tiny, but the worst part was all the dust in the air. Weit was clean when we got there, but within a day everything was covered in a fine dust. I think they need some new air filtration.
Very disappointing upon check in. They added additional fee which they said was $25/day. I showed them my receipt and they said there was no mention of this additional fee. They took a copy of my receipt and said they would speak to the manager. They said they needed my credit card again for a hold. "Don't worry, nothing will be charger until we call you"
I suddenly got a $200 dollar charge ($80/day) and no phone call or explanation.
Disappointing, especially after this is my 6th year visiting.

Decent weekend--but with lots of concerns
Groomed slopes were decent, even tho it rained a bit--without snow-making equipment, there would've been no snow in mid-Feb. Lots of unannounced lift closures.
Not "Ski-In/Ski-Out" by any stretch. It was a 2-3 min slightly uphill walk to the first lift and meeting area--But not a bad walk either.
There is no "front desk" at the Rimfire--so if you were locked out of your room, or needed something hands-on, you had to go to the Top of the Mountain Check-in (1/2 mile up the road for almost anything. RFID keys keep riff-raff/non-guests out of buildings, so they're secure. But don't lose it!
Ski lockers were TINY. If you had a few people's skis or boards, no way you're putting everything in there.
I was told they needed to swipe my credit card for a deposit and incidentals. No problem. Upon checkout, I found an ADDITIONAL $50+ daily "resort fee" was charged to my card. So beware...
Loved the room, perfect for what we needed. However, we had a room attached to a junior sweet. Took me two hours and three tips to the check in desk to get cards that worked. Did dishes Saturday morning and water drained all over the floor under dishwasher. Had to pay $40 to park in a resort we were staying at. Meanwhile GNCC had the parking across from us taken
The room was clean and comfortable and the resort was beautiful. That being said we were placed directly under the construction on the roof and there appeared to be no one else in the resort building we were in. I had communicated with someone at the property regarding our reservation and she assured us the hot tubs and gym were open but they were not. There was an alarm going off in the adjacent electrical panel the entire time we were there, we called it in 3 times with no response. We were given a village view of construction instead of the gorgeous Mountain View. Overpriced for what was open, available, and the service we received.

So-So
The property was OK. The bathroom fan made a loud noise that had to be readjusted to quiet and one of the blinds could not be opened. I did not realize my booking actually was made through Expedia-whom I would NEVER choose to use-and I spent over 1 hr trying to adjust my reservation 1 month prior to the reservation to no avail. I would say the unit was too small, but it was chosen for the price.
Multiple folks had issues with the garage door not activating well with the card, so they may want to service that mechanism - I finally got out of the car and played with the keycard to get the door activated. The room could have used another light or two. It was dark in the kitchen area. Better directions about where the ski lockers were and what goes in them (boots or not) would be helpful. We had a dud of a coffee maker and service folks were great in quickly replacing it. Coffee filters would have been helpful, but we made due with paper towels. Overall, nice place and I'd happily go back.
Activities in the area are awesome! Zip line, chair lifts, bars/restaurants, entertainment right at the front door. The mattress on the bed was horrid. That mattress felt nonexistent, the springs feel as if you are sleeping directly on them. However, the resort itself for summer activities is awesome.
Overpriced, dated, no response from the front desk. Mold in the bath. I am used to luxury for that amount of money. Fell way short.

Comfort and ease!
The studio unit was quite spacious. The fireplace added a great touch. We have stayed elsewhere in Snowshoe and this was our favorite so far!

..be aware ..hidden fees ....
So ...first ...im not exactly sure whats the way to communicate with the owner ... i tried and i still haven't receive answer ....also its confusing the check in routine ....the other surprise was that i've owed $$ even tho i payed in full right away ,when the reservation was made ... so during check in i was informed that i owe $55ish resort fees .. which is not described on the listing .. ????!!!!!! The room itself is ok .. very small ... carpet is outdated ... looks filthy ....and you need to have engineer degree to be able to light up the fireplace .The basket for the coffee machine was missing ,i had to go look for housekeeping to find me one ....Location is good ...but once again ... on check in the surprise with the extra fees lives you with bitter taste right from the start ...
