my son has autism so the small size makes it more of a family feel. He is included in any activity if he wants. Good school.

"This is a wonderful area to get away from busy city life. The mountain air is crisp and clean. Views are amazing! Wildlife is abundant, including deer, turkeys, bear, and the occasional mountain lion. "

"This is such a fun area to spend time in the summer - we love horse back riding, rafting, and just being in the mountain environment. I the winter months we like the small lift lines of Monarch Resort. This is a MUST VISIT location for fun and just relaxing."
