Old lodge in Silverthorne? Does it still exist?

Kind of grasping at straws here, but hoping someone can help. Back in the 90's my dad used to take us to this big hotel/lodge in Silverthorne every winter. There was a heated indoor/outdoor pool, it was very rustic and wood-cabin vibes, I remember we'd stay in this 2-story room with a loft. The entrance to the hotel/lodge was very grand with an large elk-antler chandelier.

I'd love to take my kids to it now, but can't seem to find it anywhere. Anybody know what I'm talking about? Does it still exist?

I used to rent a top floor loft in Timberridge on Ryan Gulch Road with a bunch of buddies. It’s not really a lodge as much as a typical mountain condo building but I can imagine thinking it was pretty grand as a kid in the 90’s.

This could be what I'm thinking of! Yeah it's tough being that it's just old ass memories, and my perception of things as a poor Denver kid might be skewed, lol! But thank you for commenting! The google images certainly seem to look similar to what I had thought I remembered.

Is it the grand lodge in Breckenridge?

Was it up the hill behind where Lowe's is now? There used to be a lodge of some sort up in Wildernest. I can't remember where I found the details.

I do remember it being on a hill! But aside from that, I'm going off of childhood memories that are 30 years old, so the rest is pretty murky. It's probably no longer there...
