You’re not alone wondering if it’s worth it to take the kids if they’ve never skied or snowboarded, let alone seen the snow, before. Let’s face it, there’s a lot to consider, from lifts to rentals and lessons — and, oh, the biggest concern of them all: what if they don’t like to ski or board after all?

Don’t fret, we have you covered. Here are a few things to consider and ways that our professional Travel Consultants can help tailor the perfect family
ski vacation for you!

Best Family-Friendly Ski Lodging

When deciding where to stay, it is so worth it to stay close to the slopes.
If you’re wondering if ski-in/ski-out lodging is worth the hype, read our blog post… It’s pretty convincing. In a nutshell, the closer you are to the slopes, the more time you have to play and the fewer hassles you have getting to and from.

Hot tubs and pools are a must with kids… some accommodations even have tennis courts, saunas, movie rooms, and other great amenities.

Kid-Friendly Activities

Super moms, you may need a break too! Think about bringing your favorite caregiver with you to reduce stress in a new environment. It could be a nanny, your mom, or a sister. Either way, a few extra hands, if your kids are small, can be great when you’re playing mitten bingo or looking for lost socks in pant legs!

Ski lessons and guided tours can help you beat the crowds by cutting the lift lines, so you get more runs in during holiday periods when crowds are the
highest. Think fast-pass, which is a “private group lesson” in ski terminology!
