We had my daughter’s tubing party in the yurt last night, the ladies at the ticket counter were amazing, kind, funny, knowledgeable, and professional all at once. The yurt exceeded my expectations. Was so close to parking, ski lodge, and snow hill. I had brought decorations but the vibe of the yurt was so nice I didn’t even use them! Will definitely host another event here!

We recently had our wedding at Crystal Ridge and we are so happy with how it turned out! Allison was amazing and made sure everything went smoothly. There was the Tacos and Tequila event at the milkmen field and she made sure there was staff members out to make sure our guest were able to reach the venue without any issues. The views of Whitnall Park were amazing from the back patio and all the guests had fun hanging out by the fires and playing games that Crystal Ridge provided. We went out during sunset for some golden hour pictures that turned out so beautiful. Overall they made it an unforgettable experience and we are so happy we chose to get married here!

Great Terrain Based Learning which is great for beginners. Convenient location. Clean, spacious lodge. Lots of fire pits. Great setting for families with beginner skiers.

My daughter had some basic lessons in snowboarding. The hill is nice, the training area is easy to get around. The staff was awesome!!!! They took time with my kiddo after lessons to show her how the chair lifts work. Gave her advice and extra instructions it is a great place for beginners.
