We are pleased to announce that Big Powderhorn Mountain Resort is under new ownership!! But don't worry, the same great skiing and boarding and more of the same friendly and helpful staff will be here to greet you and your family this season. In fact, most of the same faces you have have come to expect to see when you visit us, will be here to greet you again this season. The new owners and managers are passionate skiers and boarders; folks who have been visiting and enjoying the slopes of Big Powderhorn for many years. In fact, some have been skiing here since the resort opened for the 1963/64 season! While you are sure to see changes around the resort, you can count on the same strong standards and family fun atmosphere and staff that has made Powderhorn a midwest family favorite resort.
We are working hard to get ready for the 2009-10 ski season. The recent snow that hit the region has kicked our efforts into high gear.
Big Powderhorn Mountain Resort has been awarded two 2009 VISITOR CHOICE honors by OnTheSnow.com, the web's most visited snow skiing site. Visitors named us "Most Family-Friendly Resort" and "Best Downhill Terrain" in the midwest and ranked Big Powderhorn #2 Overall in Michigan! Please visit the site to learn more - just click on the award images. Many thanks to all our terrific visitors, passholders, and staff who continue to make Big Powderhorn Mountain such a special resort. We are looking forward to seeing you again this season.
Here's our recipe for a great ski vacation:
Combine 17 feet of average natural snowfall with incredible views of Upper Peninsula forests. Add a dash of renowned grooming, family friendly specials, and a down-home staff who treats you like family. Throw in a charming Bavarian style village with a complimentary shuttle and you have the makings for an unforgettable winter getaway!
You have Big Powderhorn Mountain Resort. So close to home. So affordable.
