Shawnee

  • July 8, 2005

After getting 6 inches of snow dumped on us during spring break, I enrolled my girls (ages 5 and 7) in ski school. The half-day program started at 8am for check-in and equipment rental. The staff was very knowledgeable and seemed experienced in working with kids. The kids are divided up into age and ability groups. After just a couple of hours on the hill, my girls could snowplow with the best of them. During the class, they took a snack break. The snack was ample and the kids had choices including PB&J, soup, and a hot or cold drink. At the end of the class, each student received a report card detailing his or her progress and recommending future training. This was a wonderful experience for my girls.

The hill at Shawnee was good--it had a vertical drop of 700 ft. It was good for the kids since we just got them into skiing this year. The next day we went to Camelback and that was great--long runs and a high-speed chair lift (was worth the extra money up the hill in two minutes instead of 10). On day three, we tried out Blue Mountain. It had the highest vertical drop of 1,089 ft. It also had high-speed chair lifts. The kids liked this one the best because of the terrain park.

Ski Shawnee, when Playing in the Poconos

The ski resort is two miles from Villas at Tree Tops. For the winter season it is a great location for anyone interested in a fun ski week with good accommodations. Villas offers tubing and an arcade for all young at heart. Several restaurants on site and many to chose from close by. A return location for winter and summer vacationing.
