Shanty Creek - Schuss Weekend with Family

This was a great place to stay that met the need of our family, had a great location for skiing/snowboarding and was in a good budget range for price. We had 7 people between our family and kids friends. The place had plenty of beds to meet our needs. The recent updates to the kitchen and bathrooms are very nice and made it more current and fresh compared to other places we've stayed. The single bed (parent's) room sharing the upstairs smaller bathroom and lack of a pasta pot for the kitchen are the only very minor suggestions that keep this from being a 5 star across the board for us.
