Im not super familiar with the resort but the mountain itself is fantastic. The beginner area is the best Ive seen and Ive taught people there with great success. The black diamonds are bomber and I always have a blast on them. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the food in the resort is good. Over all, chestnut mountain is my favorite resort in the Midwest!
