Shanty Creek ski area, Michigan

  Good ski hill, I go there a lot with my buddies. There are a lot of other ski hills around here but we keep going back to this one, the other ones are good too we just feel home at this one I suppose. says Brian.

This ski area boasts so much white snow, 17 feet every season, and that is more than enough for very glorious depth. You have to go 21 miles to get to a ski hill boasting a more sizeable altitude difference. Shanty Creek has a reasonable set of ski trails and an acceptable selection of different ski
    lifts. With a 450 foot height difference it's not the highest hill there is, but Shanty Creek makes up for it with other things. There are 49 runs to pick from; there are plenty runs for every capability. This is a fuller-scale than average ski resort in possession
of a drop from top to bottom that's something like average when compared to other mid west ski hills.
