Snow-covered landscape with a wooden bridge, trees, and a clear sky.

"So impressed. Came here from out of state to ski with friends - The staff was so friendly and helpful, and they recommended follow-on trails to help round out our Nordic ski experience during our Vail vacation. Appreciate their kindness and professionalism! Oh, and the trails were great too!" - Riannon F, Google Review, December 2023

"Loved it! Amazing snowshoe trails and beautiful lounge. Will be back after snowboarding. Then to hike around these trails again." - Neal D, Google Review, April 2023

"Went there to snowshoe for the first time, they showed me a great deal of respect and I had a great time." - Rico, Tripadvisor, March 2023

"So fun and a nice spot! We came here to try cross country skiing and it was amazing. The staff was so helpful when picking out the sizing, and putting the skis on, to teaching us a little bit of the form. It is a lot harder than it looks but the views were amazing. There were other people but it was not crowded. The locker room area is very nice and warm. 100% recommend trying this if you are in the area." - Sylvia G, Yelp, March 2023

"I cannot say enough about how different this place feels from the commercialized and disinterested rental/info/operation stuff you find at most alpine resorts. This is a different world...every single employee in the place wants to know how your day was and if there's anything they can do to help you. Even out on the trails, which are substantial and in great shape, almost everyone is smiling and waving." - Tim O, Yelp, January 2023

"Fat tire biking?! HECK YEAH!! This cyclist couldn't resist trying a new snow activity on her favorite outdoor apparatus- a bicycle. Woohoo! The people in the shop were kind & accommodating & surprised that we rode a 5k our first time out! The post ride activities were fun as well...A fabulous find if downhill isn't on the agenda - snowshoes & cross country were here too. Check them out. You'll be glad you did!" - Shelley H, Yelp, March 2023
