Guide To Area Ski Clubs

December 12, 2011 / 7:00 AM EST / CBS Philadelphia

A winter warm-up comes fast when your knees are pumping in rapid turns, running downhill through a mogul field. That's a snow covered ski run, plastered with bumps and troughs. It's bracing, exciting and dynamic. It's also more fun when you do it with others who like skiing and snowboarding as much as you do. So, why not join a ski club? There are more than 35 in our region. Members socialize, save on club ski trips, enjoy racing and build new skills and friendships. Here are a few of the clubs, selected for regional distribution and activities. – Jay Lloyd

KING OF PRUSSIA SKI CLUB P.O. Box 60146 King of Prussia, PA 19406 www.kopsc.com

King of Prussia is an adult club for the over 21s. More than a few romances have blossomed on the slopes during the full schedule of trips over the years. This winter, eight skiing odysseys are on tap. Club members will be taking off for Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, Quebec and New England. They'll ring in the New Year at Lake Placid and ski in the tracks of Olympic stars. Among the most active of the region's ski clubs, King of Prussia members meet monthly during the winter at the Jeffersonville Golf Club. Off-mountain activities throughout the year range from wine tastings to biking. The membership fee is $35 for singles or $45 for a household. Applications forms can be found here .

BLAZERS SKI CLUB P.O. Box 13052 Philadelphia, PA 19101 www.blazersskiclub.org

The Blazers is one of the few ski clubs created by and for African American skiers and snowboarders. They've blazed the trail to bring a growing number of black skiers and snowboarders into the sport through an active development program, which teaches novice and advanced skills to both adults and children through structured lesson programs on the Pocono Mountain slopes. But that's just the beginning. This winter, Blazers members will be heading for the Rockies with trips to Crested Butte, Colorado and Sun Valley, Idaho. The hills of New England will host the club when members visit both Bolton Valley and Vermont's Sugarbush. The club meets monthly at the Underground Railroad Museum in historic Belmont Mansion. An annual membership fee--which offers access to discounted lift tickets and trips--is $50. Check membership information here . BUCKS COUNTY SKI CLUB P.O. Box 763 Doylestown, PA 18901 www.buckscountyskiclub.com

Bucks County Ski Club has evolved its focus on just snow sports into a year-round social and activities clan that includes sailing, tennis and golf during the "off-season." This winter, Bucks County skiers will take part in the revelry at the energized Winter Carnival in picturesque Steamboat, Colorado. The club is also taking advantage of short lift lines, wide open trails and midweek pricing with a pair of weekday bus trips to Elk Mountain. The group meets monthly at locations in central Bucks County. The membership fee checks in at $25 for singles over 18 and $35 for a family. Membership forms are available here .

MAIN LINE SKI CLUB www.mainlineskiclub.com

Wining and dining are high on the list of activities organized by the versatile Main Line Ski Club, but skiing and snowboarding are the mainstays. Members will be jetting off to Interlaken in the Swiss Alps for a week of skiing in the rarified atmosphere of alpine peaks and smothered in legendary Swiss hospitality. Other ski trips will take Main Line members to Steamboat and Vail in Colorado, Lake Tahoe and Heavenly Valley in California, and to Vermont's towering Killington. The club is active year-round with biking outings, theater trips and tennis. It caters primarily to skiers who live near the Main Line in Chester, Montgomery and Delaware counties. Meetings are held monthly in King of Prussia. Membership fees are $35 for singles and $45 per family. Prospective members can sign-up here .

FLYING DUTCHMAN SKI CLUB P.O. Box 14233 Reading, PA 19612 www.fdsc.org

It's worth a drive to the Reading area to hook up at frequent happy hours with the Flying Dutchmen. It's one of the most dynamic, free-spirited and largest ski clubs in the region, and it made its bones with the hottest racing teams and by putting together some of the most sought-after ski ventures. This winter will take club members to the post-card-perfect village at Mont Tremblant in Quebec; to Steamboat, Colorado; and to Stratton and Mt. Snow in Vermont. Then there's Sunday River in Maine and California's Mammoth Mountain. The club owns its own seven-bedroom Pocono Mountain lodge near Jack Frost and Big Boulder that can be rented in part or whole by club members throughout the season. Members can also take advantage of consistently discounted lift tickets. Off-slope activities include biking and tennis. The membership fee is $35 and you can sign up here .

SOUTH JERSEY SKI CLUB www.sjskiclub.com

Garden State snow-seekers have gravitated to the South Jersey Ski Club for nearly half a century. The travel and social schedule is packed. Ski trips this season head for the Austrian Alps at Garstein Valley, then to Mammoth Mountain in California, Big Sky in Montana and finally, to Vermont giants, Stowe, Okemo, Sugarbush and Killington. Monthly meetings are held at the Ramblewood Country Club in Mt. Laurel, and there are social events for the group that counts tennis, softball and golf among their off-season activities. Membership dues are $20 for singles or $35 per family. An on-line application and information is available here .

This is just a brief sampling of the ski clubs and activities that charge the Delaware Valley winter. As many as 38 clubs are spread through the region. The focus is on skiing and snowboarding, but most groups are heavily involved in social activities too. The Eastern Pennsylvania Ski Council is an umbrella organization that can link you to a ski club in your own community.

It pays to attend a meeting before joining since different clubs have different personalities. Some are geared to singles and active adults. Other clubs focus on families. Off-season activities range from theater and dining to Chesapeake Bay charter sailing. The discounted lift tickets and favorably priced ski trips are worth the cost of admission.

See you on the slopes!

EPSC- Eastern PA Ski Council

The Eastern PA Ski Council depends and thrives off of our member clubs. Without the clubs there is no council. In order to receive EPSC benefits you need to be a member of one of clubs below.

We also have a map of club locations to provide members with a visual way to find their nearest club. Check it out on our Club Locations page!

If you are an existing club or thinking about starting one, check out our membership page to find out more.

Trip Reciprocation

EPSC offers a unique system where clubs can offer trip reciprocation between their clubs. This means that a member from club “A” can participate on a trip run by club “B” without the need to join club “B”. Vise versa, a member from club “B” can join a trip run by club “A”.

Some clubs offer limited trip reciprocation where they charge non-members a surcharge or place non-members on a waitlist. The idea behind this is that their club members get the first chance to join the trip before the club opens it up to non-members.

The club directory below displays each clubs trip reciprocation policies based on the most current information we have. Another way to find out which clubs offer this is to visit our Trip Finder which lets you search trips posted by clubs running trips. These trips are here for any EPSC member to join.

12 best family ski resorts in the US

Whether your child is a snowboarding teen used to shredding powder or a newbie headed to ski school for the very first time, many mountain resorts across the U.S. are perfect for a family ski trip .

Skiing can be a terrific family activity in winter , as the apres-ski scene provides just as much fun as time spent on the slopes. Many resorts also offer alternative snow-related activities — such as tubing, ice skating, snowshoeing and even sleigh rides — so the whole family can enjoy the mountain experience.

Related: Best travel credit cards

The best ski resorts for families are usually the ones that offer on- and near-mountain lodging, ski schools with a variety of programs, beginner- and intermediate-friendly terrain and some quality non-ski activities.

Ski and snowboard lessons can fill up well in advance, so if ski school — or even on-mountain child care — is a must-have for your vacation, double-check the options to ensure they fit your ski vacation goals. Just note that you most likely won't be able to book ski school until the fall, at the earliest.

Once you decide on the best resort for your family, price out lift tickets and pass options ahead of time. You may be surprised at how much more affordable it is to buy ski passes in advance rather than purchase individual lift tickets — even if you are only skiing for a day or two. Buying ski passes earlier than later will ensure you get the best pricing; they will only get more expensive as the year goes on.

Some mountains also offer kids-ski-free programs , which can help keep the trip cost down. Additionally, many ski resorts have capacity limits, so you'll want to make sure you purchase your tickets before arriving (or make advance reservations at select mountains).

With all these nuances in mind, here are some of our favorite ski resorts for the whole family.

Beaver Creek Resort, Colorado

Why beaver creek is a good ski resort for families.

This may be surprising for those who are only familiar with the mountain's luxury reputation, but Colorado's Beaver Creek perhaps offers some of the friendliest slopes for family ski trips. About a two-hour drive from Denver International Airport (DEN) or 30 minutes from Eagle County Regional Airport (EGE) in Gypsum, this resort is relatively easy to reach, assuming you have good road conditions.

Beaver Creek has been upping its already solid family ski game even more lately, thanks in part to the relatively new, 250-acre, lift-served expansion called McCoy Park. This offers even more terrain for beginner and intermediate skiers and snowboarders; it also elevates the mountain experience with an additional 17 groomable trails, plus two more chairlifts.

Here, you'll also find the Beaver Creek Candy Cabin , which is a great addition to the Ice Cream Parlour at the top of the Haymeadow Express Gondola. At Red Buffalo Park's Cookie Cabin and at the bottom of the Centennial Express and Haymeadow Lift, you'll also be able to experience the mountain's famous 3 p.m. cookie time.

After a long day of skiing, you can enjoy ice skating in the village. On Thursday nights, kids and adults who are at least level four skiers can participate in a glow stick ski. For a unique experience, take an open-air, snowcat-led sleigh ride to Allie's Cabin , Zach's Cabin or Beano's Cabin — three different mountain-top dining options.

The mountain also ensures that teens are fully entertained. This past season, the new Hawk's Nest Cabin opened in Beaver Creek Village, where teens can enjoy the coolest underage club. There, those between the ages of 10 and 18 enjoy craft nonalcoholic beverages, music, interactive technology, arcade and table games, a ski simulator, lounge spots and more.

Lift tickets for Beaver Creek don't have to cost a ton if you plan in advance and lock in an Epic Pass of some sort.

Where to stay at Beaver Creek

Winter rates start at $800 or 35,000 World of Hyatt points per night.

Winter rates start at $970 or 112,000 Marriott Bonvoy points per night.

Winter rates start at $450 or 77,000 Marriott Bonvoy points per night.

TPG tip : You can add up to 15,000 Marriott Bonvoy points to certificates with fixed prices. Should you find any nights that cost 100,000 points or less, you can use the 85,000-point certificate awarded annually by the Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant® American Express® Card if you are willing to add some points.

Keystone Resort, Colorado

Why keystone is a good ski resort for families.

Out of all the great Colorado ski resorts (and there are plenty), Keystone is the hot spot for kids of all ages. There are the usual dog sledding, snow tubing, ice skating and sleigh ride activities, but the piece de resistance is the resort's kids programs and accommodations.

There are plenty of fun on-mountain experiences, such as snowcat skiing and night skiing (on weekends and holidays). Tykes should also like the famous Snow Fort. In fact, this past year, the mountain even had two snow forts to pick from: one up on Dercum Mountain and one in the Mountain House base area.

Additionally, the resort offers a ton of family conveniences, such as free preferred family parking for those with kids 12 and younger, as well as red wagons to help tow skis, boards or even tired kiddos.

This past season, Keystone added another 550 acres of diverse terrain among 16 new trails, bringing the total up to 3,500 acres. With so much terrain, your family can experience a wide range of trails, including the 3.5-mile-long Schoolmarm — a timeless run for the family to work on turns.

Best of all, kids 12 and younger ski free when staying at one of the resort's properties for two or more nights. (There are no blackout dates.)

Where to stay at Keystone

Winter rates start at $300 or 12,000 World of Hyatt points per night. This property is a great use of the Hyatt Category 1-4 certificate that's available annually for those with the World of Hyatt Credit Card .

Winter rates start at $825 per night for a four-bedroom accommodation, with 20% discounts available to those with an Epic Pass.

Snowmass, Colorado

Why snowmass is a good ski resort for families.

Snowmass is one of the mountains in Colorado's swanky Aspen ski area, so you can check a high-end ski resort off your bucket list while entertaining the kids at the same time.

A bit less showy than its big sister Aspen, Snowmass notably includes the Treehouse Kids' Adventure Center, a licensed kids club for children between 8 weeks and 4 years old. Children at least 2.5 years old can also hit the slopes, as the mountain offers many ski school options.

On top of that, Snowmass allows kids to ski free all the way through age 6, which makes it a more affordable choice for a young family than most mountains; other areas typically start charging kids by the time they turn 4. For those 7 and up, know that the mountain participates in both the Ikon and Mountain Collective ski passes.

Other kid-friendly Snowmass activities include on-mountain snow tubing , alpine coasters , ice skating , snowshoeing tours and even an indoor climbing wall . During select dates throughout winter, Snowmass will offer a nighttime winter wonderland party called Ullr Nights filled with evening activities for families. This includes a gondola ride to Elk Camp, bonfires, tubing, alpine coaster rides, snow biking, s'mores and hot chocolate.

Where to stay at Snowmass

Winter rates start at $620 or 58,000 Marriott Bonvoy points per night. This means you could add Marriott points to a 50,000-point free night certificate on select nights.

Winter rates start at $750 per night.

Related: Yes, you really can visit Aspen on a budget. Here's how

Copper Mountain, Colorado

Why copper mountain is a good ski resort for families.

If you are looking for a Colorado ski resort experience with lower prices than its neighbors, Copper is a great choice. This resort has family-friendly written all over it, and it offers an array of activities for all ages.

In addition to skiing in what are often prime snow conditions, you'll have the Rocky Mountain Coaster , plenty of snow tubing , ice skating on West Lake in Center Village and even daily complimentary ambassador ski tours .

Additionally, whenever there is a full moon, Copper Mountain will offer ambassador-guided Full Moon Snowshoe Tours in the evenings. For an off-mountain activity, the 19,400-square-foot Woodward Copper Barn serves as an indoor action sports facility, offering many unique activities at Copper Mountain.

For the past three years, Copper has also featured a Snow Maze , which we should see return for the 2024-2025 season as well. Near the base of the Super Bee lift in Copper's East Village, this maze is extremely fun for kids, as it's made entirely of snow.

This past season, visitors were able to experience the resort's brand-new mid-mountain lodge, Aerie. This 25,000-square-foot building offers more dining options and a beautiful 270-degree view. Best of all, the gondola unloads right at the lodge's deck.

Copper is also continuing to make improvements to its Western Territory Expansion. This area is on the far west side of the mountain and is designed to inspire beginner skiers, kids and families to connect with Copper's history and heritage. With new trails that have debuted over the past few years (including kid-friendly tree trails), guests will be able to experience 2,538 acres of skiable terrain.

Where to stay at Copper Mountain

Winter rates start at $161 per night. You can also use your Choice Privileges points to book a stay, though award pricing hasn't yet been set for the 2024-2025 season; however, this past winter cost 35,000 Choice Privileges points per night.

Deer Valley Resort, Utah

Why deer valley is a good ski resort for families.

When kids are getting their bearings and making big side-to-side turns on a slope, it can be easier to start on runs where you won't find any snowboarders.

At the ski-only Deer Valley Resort, there's a children's adventure area on the mountain with 14 pint-size trails allowing tots to practice new techniques. However, their favorite part will probably be the tiny cabin hidden in the woods. The mountain limits its ticket sales each day, which keeps crowds (and lift line waits) at a minimum.

If you are looking for a ski resort that can also entertain a non-skiing child, the Deer Valley Children's Center offers licensed full-day child care with many activities, as well as outdoor and indoor playgrounds. Children between 2 months and 12 years old can enjoy this facility.

Deer Valley has a fun approach to ski school that includes the Teen Escape for teens ages 13 to 17, the Adventure Club for kids ages 7 to 12, the Reindeer Club for 5- and 6-year-olds and the Bambi Club for 4-year-olds. For the younger kids, the class sizes are incredibly small, with just two to four kids in a class — depending on age.

Because Deer Valley participates in the Ikon Pass ski program, the more economical way to lock in lift tickets might be to opt for a pass instead of paying the window rates.

Northstar California Resort, California

Why northstar is a good ski resort for families.

California's Northstar Resort, along the California-Nevada border by Lake Tahoe, is excellent for families — especially due to the average 350 inches of annual snowfall. Here, families can ski together in the Kids Adventure Zone, where two mountain areas have blue trails safely tucked away from bigger, faster skiers and snowboarders.

Every Friday, Saturday and Sunday, you can kick up your feet and unwind midday while enjoying a glass of apple cider (or a glass of bubbly for the adults) with the mountain's one-of-a-kind Tost tradition. Additionally, families can enjoy the apres-ski scene by cozying up around the fire pit or zipping around on ice skates while listening to live music. At other times, you can enjoy fireside s'mores and hot cocoa.

If cross-country skiing is your activity of choice, the Nordic Center offers nearly 22 miles of scenic trails for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and fat biking.

Smugglers' Notch Resort, Vermont

Why smugglers' notch is a good ski resort for families.

An uber kid-friendly ski resort, Smugglers' Notch focuses on the entire family experience. This is why it's known as "America's Family Resort."

Smuggs, as it's called by those who know and love it, offers an award-winning Snow Sport University. It starts lessons with little ones as young as 3 years old. Sir Henry's Learning and Fun Park has two "magic carpet rides" that gently guide new skiers to the top.

For those who already know how to ski and board, the mountain has everything they could want: 78 trails, eight lifts, the highest vertical drop in northern Vermont at 2,610 feet and more than 300 inches of natural snow each year. Multiple terrain parks and 1,000 acres for skiing and riding are also available.

For those staying at the resort, everything is a few steps away, and an on-demand shuttle will take you wherever you need to go.

Off the mountain, you'll also find a plethora of activities — both during the day and night. Activities include snowshoeing, tubing, cross-country skiing, swimming, ice skating, bingo and magic shows. You can also experience the updated Fun Zone 2.0 complex, which features a "Ninja Warrior" course, laser tag, miniature golf, an arcade, large inflatable slides and more spread across 26,000 square feet of indoor space.

Stowe, Vermont

Why stowe is a good ski resort for families.

Stowe has a world-class ski school and plenty of long, beautiful blue trails to keep your not-yet-expert skiers and snowboarders engaged. The relatively new Adventure Zone has continued to be a big hit; these low-angle, gladed areas are appropriate for anyone in the family looking for a fun experience skiing or boarding through the trees on Mount Mansfield.

After a great family day on the slopes, enjoy a free pre-dinner skate at the Spruce Peak outdoor ice rink , embark on a guided twilight snowshoe tour through the woods or enjoy indoor rock climbing at Stowe Rocks. If you're looking for a resort with a village atmosphere, this is one of the best you'll find in the Northeast.

The main issue with Stowe Mountain is its ticket prices compared to many other East Coast resorts. Luckily, the Epic Pass can save your family over the walk-up lift ticket rates. You could even look at Epic's Northeast Value Pass if you expect to only ski at East Coast mountains this winter.

Where to stay at Stowe

Winter rates start at $400 or 45,000 World of Hyatt points per night.

Winter rates start at $265 per night.

Jay Peak, Vermont

Why jay peak is a good ski resort for families.

People love Jay Peak thanks to its indoor water park , which is ideal for families who want to take a day off from skiing or have something to do after morning ski school. The Jay Peak Pump House features slides, a FlowRider surf simulator and an entire kids play area. Many lodging packages include water park access, or you can purchase a daypass. (We recommend purchasing in advance.)

Aside from the water park, there are two arcades , a climbing gym , an ice skating rink and a slopeside movie theater . Not all activities are available every day, so double-check ahead of time. Aim to make advance bookings where available.

Best of all, there's a surplus of ski-in, ski-out condo and hotel options, giving families the perfect opportunity to stay in accommodations that work best for their needs. For those with little ones — or even big ones — Jay Peak offers child care for children as young as 6 weeks old both during the day and in the evenings.

Winter rates start at $300 per night.

Bretton Woods, New Hampshire

Why bretton woods is a good ski resort for families.

Just across the Vermont border is New Hampshire's answer to family-oriented skiing: Bretton Woods.

Home to the family-friendly Omni Mount Washington Resort , Bretton Woods features fat-tire snow biking trails, a 62-mile trail network for cross-country skiing, sleigh rides, snow tubing, canopy tours and an indoor-outdoor heated swimming pool (just for guests). The recently built Rosewood Lodge at the top of the mountain also gives skiers and riders that top-of-the-mountain lodge and luxury dining experience that you won't find at many other nearby mountains.

Unfortunately, unlike what you'll find at many other mountains, Bretton Woods only offers ski school on the weekends (Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and select holidays). If ski school is a must-have, just ensure the mountain has an option that fits your needs. However, we did find ski school was much more affordable here than those at many other resorts.

From the hotel's architecture to the incredible views of Mount Washington, it's no surprise that the resort is a top destination for families. With many fun activities for the entire family and more than 464 acres to ski , there should be no shortage of on-mountain family fun.

Mont-Tremblant Ski Resort, Quebec

Why mont-tremblant is a good ski resort for families.

In case you haven't found the perfect family ski resort for you this far into the list, we are cheating a little and including two near-to-the-U.S. family ski resort options in Canada.

At Mont-Tremblant, your family can experience the international skiing vibe without crossing the pond. This French-influenced getaway is just a couple of hours outside Montreal. Featuring 102 slopes and usually great snow conditions, Mont-Tremblant is one of the best ski experiences in North America, with the highest peak in the Laurentians region.

While older family members explore the high peaks of Mont-Tremblant, kids as young as 3 years old can enjoy practicing their turns at ski school . Or, if you happen to be visiting during spring break, Tremblant's Ski Week program will give you four full days with the same instructor.

Guests can explore a unique European-style pedestrian village directly at the mountain's base. The pedestrian village allows easy access from the front step of your hotel door to the bottom of the slopes. With its colorful buildings — including more than 75 shops, restaurants, bars and boutiques — there is plenty to do in any weather.

On a non-skiing day, grab the kids and hit the snow-covered trails ripe for fat biking, dune buggy rides, snowshoeing, ice fishing, sleigh rides and even ice climbing. Families will not want to miss the Brind'O Aquaclub water park, which offers four slides, indoor and outdoor hot tubs, 35 interactive water games and a revamped fitness room. There is also laser tag and a virtual reality arcade.

If Mont-Tremblant is on your radar, you can save money with the Ikon Base Pass.

Why whistler is a good ski resort for families.

British Columbia's Whistler is another Canadian winter ski hot spot with a family-friendly focus. Your kids will love the pint-size ski experience at the resort's Enchanted Woods, which is usually clear of more experienced and faster skiers. Or, embark on the thrilling Bubly Tube Park .

In addition to Magic Castle and Tree Fort outdoor playlands at both Whistler and its sister mountain, Blackcomb, families will be entertained with the mountain's free Fire & Ice performances every Sunday night (a display of ski and snowboard skills). Families can also exchange their ski boots for ice skates and skate for free in Whistler Village; the area is chock-full of shops, restaurants and things to do in the after-ski hours.
