“Great Family Ski Resort”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 20, 2012

We were at the resort over Easter and it was great. Lots to do for the kids such as snow tubing and snowmobile rentals. Great spring skiing. The village is small with easy access to all things. The Dummy Downhill on the last day of the season was a lot of fun. Friendly staff. More

“Great ski holiday”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed April 16, 2012

Cute small village very colourful buildings with fantastic skiing. Long Johns pub was great for meals at night with live music and great atmosphere. Good retail and food. Ski runs were fantastic but the groomers were off the pace. The tubetown and the snowmobiles were so much fun. Friendly staff and great snow made for a really enjoyable holiday. More

“Great spring vacation, lovely ski resort, easy to get to.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 29, 2012

We stayed at the Pinnacles Resort. Nice condo but found the ski in/out very difficult for beginners/smaller children. Buy your tickets from the mountain, we tried Cosco and it ended up costing us more in the long run. Lines ups were non-existent. Lessons were great. They offer free guided tours of the slopes which would be a great value to... More

“The Perfect Ski Trip”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 12, 2012

Can't say enough good things about our family ski trip to Silver Star. The village is the perfect size, staff are friendly, terrain is varied enough to keep everyone from beginner to expert constantly challenged. We had 10cm of fresh snow everyday we skiied and our only regret is we didn't stay longer. A very special thanks to Robin Baycroft,... More
