We do utilize a weblink outside the platform that directs guests to our guidebook. You will receive an email with this link. This is the ONLY way guests can access check-in information, and facilitates the collection of fees and other special requests/upgraded services we offer.

To protect your stay, you'll choose one of two options during online check-in: a $150 refundable security deposit (a temporary card hold, released after checkout) or a small damage waiver ($5/night, max $40).
Guest Access:

You have private access to the studio (Unit 120) and full guest access to the Grand Lodge amenities: indoor/outdoor heated pool, outdoor hot tub, steam room, fitness center, lobby and great room with stone fireplace, on-site ski storage at Butte & Co., and free outdoor parking with EV charging (one parking pass per booking).
The Grand Lodge amenities are managed by the building's HOA, not by Traverse. They are typically open year-round, but the building can close them for maintenance or events without notice. We do not offer refunds for short-term amenity closures since they are outside our control.
