Midwest Skier from United States writes:

A great family resort, with as good a level of skiing as you will find in the midwest. Not as lively as nearby Boyne Mountain resort for nightlife, but the most acreage and elevation that you will find in the region. Good on-resort rentals available, good food/drink and great snow-making, which is important with the midwest weather. Great for beginners and kids looking to learn to ski/snowboard. Great ski school. Updated high-speed lifts and RF technology for passes. It's about as good as it gets in the midwest.
