What our clients are saying
 | Date of review: 26-Apr-2011
"Resort worked extremely hard to keep runs open and we recommend this resort for its efficiency and the staff that are here. Long drive up from Grenoble, but very picturesque - big scenery. Plenty of snow parks which kept the children happy all day long."
