*February 13-18, 2011*

They are now allowing our three-night option a *flexible* start day (Sunday,
Monday, or Tuesday); the five-night stay still requires the Sunday check-in
to stay entirely mid-week. This means that the arrival day can be a
mid-week day (with fewer people on the slopes and short to no lift lines).
Best Deal Examples listed below - remember that lift tickets are included for day of arrival (before 6:00 pm check-in) and day of departure (after 10:00 am check-out) *and* that they are allowing our group to exceed the max occupancy listed on their website, including the extra lift tickets (which means *much* better pricing, but also that the extra people might need to
sleep on a couch, floor, or cot), *and* that the rates they are giving us include taxes, fees, and gratuities (so no extra surprise fees such as 14% extra added to any rate you see listed on their website). *The rates they are giving us range from about 20% - 80% less than their web pricing!*
*The following prices include accommodations and lift tickets; the per person breakdown of lodging/lift ticket cost is for comparison only. Other size units available - check http://bluegreen.us/skitrip/ Notice that these rates are cheaper than lift tickets alone, yet include lodging and lots more (listed below)*
