I would not recommend going to Crystal Mountain. For the price you pay, they don't deliver. They were mask nazis and even got in the faces of my friends 3 yr old and 8 yr old. The skiing wasn't that great either and the terrain park was poorly done. I also felt very limited because I got yelled at for going off groomed trails, or going in the terrain park but not going on any of the features. I was definitely underwhelmed by the skiing part and the people there were controlling, domineering and mask nazis.
