Horrible place if you've never been skiing. They check you out and hand you this card and send you over to rentals, and then after you're done they tell you to "Have fun!" We told them we were new and they didn't give us any direction. We tried to go to the lessons and then they told us we needed a ticket. So we go back to the front desk and they send us to another desk. Then the people at that desk were just utterly confused by such a simple statement. We wanted lessons, and the lady and man kept going back and forth about if we had a reservation and if we wanted lessons. She asked us 3 times if we needed lessons. YES, THAT IS WHY WE ARE HERE. After a few minutes of frustration we just walk away and say nevermind, and the guy was like "don't skip lessons you're gonna break a wrist!" Well MAYBE if you understood the first 3 times we said it, we would be getting them. And to top it all off, there aren't really signs for stuff, so we had no idea where to go, or how to get to the slopes. Overall, just an extremely frustrating experience, was expecting this to be the best part of our vacation.
