Silver Star Reviews

"Visited for 3 days in Feb 2009. Fab little resort. Can easily see why it is particularly recommended for families - I have no children and generally avoid them where possible but can equally see that the facilities on offer here are better than average. Stayed in the Snowbird Lodge - v high quality accommodation & genuinely ski in/out: cooker/fridge/dishwasher/sinks in appartment for self-catering with small area with dining table for eating if we had taken that option. Trouble was there were 4 bars/restaurants in the village which each had different styles offering apres ski deals or straight forward drinks/meal menus. All well worth visiting. The slopes seemed to be more extensive than the limited acreage suggests - possibly due to the different feel to each of the ski areas. Intermediates will feel that they have travelled around a larger area. On mountain dining is limited - Paradise Camp below the top of Powder Gulch lift is the only option other than returning to the village but gives a good service of basic bulk over quality cooking with booze available if needed. Intermediates or above will become bored after 3 days - I would recommend trying this place as part of a twin centre holiday or a ski safari."

"A picturesque small village setting directly on the slopes, with friendly coffee shops, bars, and general store. Snowbird Lodge has hig quality apartment accommodation with ski store exiting onto the slope. Good option for families and/or as part of a two location holiday. "

"A GREAT RESORT - GOOD SNOW AND LIFT SYSTEMS. RUNS FOR EVERYONE, THE BACK SIDE FOR THE EXTREME. REALLY KID FRIENDLY - THEY ARE ALLOWED IN ALL THE PUBS (A WATERSHED TIME IN SOME ) LONG JOHNS BEING OUR FAVOURITE. A LOVELY ATMOSPHERE THROUGHOUT THE RESORT - OUR 2ND TIME THERE WILL DEFINITELY REVISIT. "
