As far as Midwest ski areas go this is one of my favorite. It has quality snow and plenty of room for all its riders. A great beginner mountain it has mostly well maintained groomers. It lacks in terrain that other resorts may have (moguls, trees, glades). Still, it is easy to spend a full day skiing here without getting bored. Employees are all friendly and helpful in my experience.
