Matthew

We brought our family to Indianhead for the first time in December 2015. We had so many fantastic memories on the hill. My wife and children were first time skiers. They had a fantastic time at Ski School and were able to learn with a very patient instructor. Everyone by the days end could ski down all the green runs on their first day. We had so many hours on the hill that weekend with smiling faces. It isn't often enough we get to see our family all enjoying the same activity and have so much excitement in a winter wonderland. My son couldn't get enough and talked his Boy Scout Troop into going up for the weekend in January of 2017. The hospitality of the resort and staff were phenomenal. The adults and scouts alike voted the Indianhead trip as their all-time best outing!!! We can't wait to go back this New Years and ski in 2017!
