We live down South for a reason, but every now and then Floridians miss the snow and all the fun it has to offer. So we head for the mountains.
Snow country is no longer just for skiers.
Many resorts offer snowboarding, snowshoeing, luging, ice skating, snowmobiling, sleigh rides and more. Many resorts are family-friendly with special areas designated for kids who want their turn on the slopes, too. Here are a few winter escapes worth singling out, along with our suggestions for getting the most out of your ski vacation. The resort also has added a lift-served family ski area, a day lodge with gourmet fare, and more improvements are scheduled throughout the season. You may also e-mail us your request.
