The skiing at Whitefish was great. It snowed almost every day we were there. The resort has lots of runs for any skill level and several new high-speed quads. Other than the line for the main lift at the base lodge, the lines were typically short.
It is both a plus and minus that Whitefish doesn't have the kind of village atmosphere that you find at many resorts such as Whistler. There are fewer restaurant choices for dinner; however, the atmosphere is much more quiet, subdued, and family-friendly—no loud party goers. But if you need more choices the charming town of Whitefish has lots of restaurants, pubs, etc. and is just a short, FREE shuttle-ride away.
We thoroughly enjoyed the five days that we spent at Whitefish. And the train ride home was a nice way to wrap up the trip. This time we departed Whitefish Station at 9:30pm on New Years Eve. The got their own room this time and went right to bed. While my husband and I enjoyed some champagne to toast the New Year.
Our whole family highly recommends the Whitefish Mountain Resort as a great spot for a family ski vacation. And for those that live in Seattle, the train is the wonderful way to add extra adventure to the trip.
