I loved the view of the river from the room and the area for hiking to the river. Coming in the fall for the colors was perfect. It’s a short drive to Galena. The restaurant on site was good and convenient.

Liked: Cleanliness
We had a fun stay at Chestnut Mountain Resort. The facility is out dated and has an old feel, but our room was tidy. The bathroom was very small. We had a family gathering over the weekend. Several of us went skiing and had a good time. The rest of us played games. The large gathering room closed when the ski hill closed. We were disappointed because we wanted to continue to play games after skiing. We had a large group and needed tables to play our games. The lady that told us the room was going to close was very rude and demanding.
