Recent Reviews

Quiet, risk of no snow, snow is made but the resort can be warm low down and the end of some runs can be very poor and hard work.

Village is limited for food, snow and no supermarket

Stayed with some friends living out there for a little. Free bus access up to the Portes du Soleil area so plenty to go at. Nice quiet place to stay, but not too far from Morzine if you want to head out at night either!

The gem of the Portes Du Soleil - the run back to the carpark can be icy and bumpy so sometimes the old lift is the better option, some lovely smaller pistes and off piste down to Graydon (you will need to hike or have a lift back)
