Your #906 Get A Way Pioneer Lodge Timber Lodge Anderson Lake Beaver Lodge Spruce Haven Woodlands Skiing with a large family can seem intimidating. Thankfully, Ski Brule and the team of hard-working, Heavens Window helpful people that work there took a ton of the stress out of it. From my first (of dozens) phone call to arriving at the equipment center, the staff went out of their way to be exceptionally customer focused. Clearly it's a commitment made by everyone and it shows. There were very few lines for the lifts and even in the dining areas. We had an amazing time and we can't wait to go back. Thanks Ski Brule for getting our family into skiing! ~Matt, Chicago, IL Eagles Nest Timberline Big Bear Big Bear 20 1-800-362-7853 Book Online www.skibrule.com
