Mt Yotei from our Window in Country Resort

Well, it has been 2 years since we last enjoyed our home in the snow and wow has it blossomed.  We have new chalets, new neighbors, a new private kitchen/kids club, new concierge team, and tons of new powder.  I didn’t expect this much snow so soon but we are not complaining!  We fell in love with Country Resort when there was nothing here and now that we have a community, it rocks.  We have made new friends during the Christmas and New Years parties we hosted at the private kitchen.

Everyone on the team has been fantastic.  Geoffrey has made the wonderful dinners a reality with the help of Guy and the team.  Stuart, Ben, the always smiling Kana, and the team made a fantastic ice bar that was huge hit.  Our English roses Helen, Philippa, and Katie made sure the glasses were full and the spirits high.  The highlight of the night was Santa’s appearance (Guy) with his trusty Rudolph (Kana) and Christmas tree (Katie) in tow.  Good times had by all…
