Reviewed by: Louie Armstrong, Advanced

Price Paid: $0.00

Summary:
They installed a new snowmaking system for the 2003/2004 season that is incredibly better than anywhere else, so the other eviews are now innaccurate. The old system was terrible. The best artificial snow i have ever skied. not especially strong in value, but the best place around to learn to ski/board or get warmed up for a season of winter sports. there is a decent terrain park and 3 good ski runs that managed to keep me happy for 3 days of skiing, even though I get tired of slopes easily. The skiing seems to be an afterthought of the resort, which however expensive, is an amazing resort. The trail map makes it look tiny, but it is comparable in size to other ski areas around here.

Reviewed by: Brenda Page, Intermediate, from N. Wilkesboro, NC, USA

Price Paid: $0.00

Summary:
It was nice for small children to learn how to ski and ice skate. Overall, I've gotten far more for the money at other resorts.

Reviewed by: Jefferson, Intermediate, from Herndon, VA, US

Summary:
It's a good small resort and it has improved with a new half-pipe and lifts.
