“This resort holds a prime position for Midwest skiing, yet it's more than just a winter destination, it's a year-round family hub with Segway tours and mini-golf. The indoor pool and spa add a relaxing touch. I think its access to both outdoor adventure and the historic charm of Galena makes it a uniquely appealing choice.”
