It has probably been 20 years since I ve been to Winterplace. I couldn t wait to take my family and share with them how great this place is that boasts how friendly it is for beginners. We all took a beginning snowboarding class. It was terrible. My youngest son felt so ridiculed that he just sat down and refused to attempt anymore. The instructor gave very little instructions and zero encouragement. Then he trash talked to my husband about how he couldn t believe how my son was not even trying (I don t think he even realized we were all related). The place seemed run down from what I remembered. We were planning on a full day of snowboarding, eating lunch and snow tubing as well but promptly left after the lesson was over. We paid a great deal of money for a 90 minute session where we didn t even learn how to stop despite repeatedly asking that question. We left so discouraged after hoping to make this a new winter tradition for our family.
