I hesitate to review this place because I selfishly don't want want more people to know about it. Absolutely wonderful. Yes, it's smaller than done of the resorts in summit county, but more than makes up for it. Fantastic runs, incredibly friendly staff, free parking (and you can actually walk to the lifts from the parking lot), affordable lift tickets, and reasonable wait times at the lifts (and on some weekdays, no wait time at all!). My family will definitely be returning.

Raquel is the best bartender ever! She's smart, quirky, and pours a stiff drink. She slings drinks and burgers like nobody's business. She's a great conversationalist too, she should teach a class. I would've given her 6 stars, but 5 is the max on Google. Ask for Raquel when you stop in.
