Fantastic location, we were able to ski up to our truck and store skis or use indoor locker storage
Best ski rental shop in Fernie in the basement floor. The Condo unit was great for three of us.
Griz Inn is perfect ski in - ski out at Fernie. Self check in worked very well. Condo was clean and kitchen was perfectly equipped to cook meals in room.
Beautiful scenery and quiet time of year. Perfect for us

Convenient location if using the Fernie Resort. Quiet and has what you need for a place to stay. No amenities or staff, so basically think “staying at my buddy’s place”, and you’ll be happy with what you get. Beds were decent.

The location on the hill can't be beat! The room had everything we needed. Great system with the key pads to access the room, we didn't have to worry about who had the key since we all came and went at different times. Only minor complaint is that the hot tub could have been warmer for our aching muscles. I know it loses heat because it's so big but maybe it could be set higher to compensate for that.
The location in the mountains is stunning. This is a great spot to stay for skiing as you can ski right up to the property. We had a condo unit rented through a management company, which all went very smoothly. The value for the price was very good.
Family of four with two young children, property is easy to get around and get on the kids ski hill. Room was clean and had everything we needed. Would go back again.

A great stay but missed the Rusty Edge. Griz needs a bar/restaurant.

Nice ski in/out. Place was clean and had enough kitchen amenities to eat in our room. Hot tub was nice after a day of hiking and skiing! Room was dated, but comfortable and clean.
Very old fashioned - did the job for a couple of nights, but wouldn't want to stay longer. Ideal if you're on a budget and want to be near the ski slopes.
Nice’n clean but being on a ski resort you would expect extra drying racks for clothing/ helmet…
The recliner sofa was super great for nap during lunch break putting the feet up.
Parking lot was not cleared from snow.
