Park City Mountain Resort was recently named "North America's Most Family-Friendly Resort" by the visitors of onthesnow, which is the most visited snowsports site on the web.

One of our Snowmamas answers your questions. Where would you suggest to stay in Park City? I have 10 and 6 year old (this is their first time skiing) and we were looking for a 2 br condo, with a washer and dryer, that is close to Park City Mountain Resort. Thanks for your help.

One of our Snowmamas answers your questions. QUESTION: There used to be a "Free" skiing opportunity on your day of arrival. Does that still hold true?

One of our Snowmamas answers your questions. Hi, My husband and 2 boys (14 and 12) are looking to ski in March. We have all skied before (except my 12 year old), but are still "beginners." We would like advice on where to stay as we have never been to Park City. It has been a while since we went on vacation, so we are not looking to "rough" it; however, we do not want to break the bank either. I would like to be close to the slopes and ski school (some of us ski more than others, so easy access to our lodging would be great) and have a washer and dryer. Where do you recommend?

One of our Snowmamas answer your questions. We will be in Park City from December 17 through December 26. I have a six year old daughter. Are there any Christmas activities for young children being offered?

One of our snowmamas answer your questions. We have two boys (ages 3 and 5) and we really want fun activities that would also be convenient. Would you recommend Deer Valley or Park City to ski with kids?
