This is our personal favorite ski resort in the area for the price and overall atmosphere. A stop in Phoenicia on the way home is always a great idea for a little apres ski.

9-whole course on Main St with a seemingly relaxed attitude. I’m not a golfer, but I think they charge $1 a hike at some point in the afternoon on some days. Green fees are $20-25 otherwise.
