Bring on winter! We’re thrilled to be giving away a 5-night/5-day stay for a family of four at Vermont’s Smugglers’ Notch (see our review), for 12 years voted No. 1 for family programs by the readers of SKI magazine. The prize includes lodging in a two-bedroom mountainside condominium, four days of lift tickets, daily group ski or snowboard lessons for children ages 3 to 17 years, plus use of the indoor pool, hot tubs, FunZone, activities, and evening entertainment.

Many families return to Smuggs year after year because Smuggs understands what families are looking for in a family ski vacation (see our article about Kid-friendly Ski Resorts). Along with some of the best skiing and snowboarding in the East, Smuggs offers award-winning kids’ programs, comfortable mountainside condo lodging, and fun on- and off-mountain activities for every family member. Plus, families love that there are plenty of dining choices and in-resort shopping.
