Bittersweet Ski Resort for Family Fun

Here's my attempt at a selfie with my daughter at the ski hill. I'm not sure that I would consider this travel since it's only 40 minutes from where we live. It is certainly family time.

This is what we do in winter. We ski and make the best of what Michigan has to offer. This is Bittersweet Ski Resort in Otsego, MI. It has a great beginner hill which includes a carpet, tow rope, and even a chair lift. I could spend all day on the bunny hill. But, my kids prefer the steeper hills so we move on to those. 

They also have a few blue runs that are great for the average skier. The black diamonds are a bit too steep for my taste, but all my kids love them!

The only warning I have is to watch out for snow boarders. For some reason they just plop themselves down wherever they please and it's like an obstacle course, especially on weekends. 

Being that we home school, we try to go when it's not so busy, like during the week days.
