Mountain days.
Fireside evenings.
Ski days at Sunday River, quieter trails in Bethel and time together back at the house.
Before you head out
Sunday River conditions.
Go straight to the resort for current snow reports, open terrain and lift operations. Recheck during the day—wind and weather can change the plan.

Make a mountain day of it.
Choose the terrain, lesson or pace that fits your group. Not everyone needs the same plan.
Meet up, not keep up.
For mixed-ability groups, plan a lunch meeting point and let each person enjoy their own pace. Check which base areas and dining venues are operating.

A little preparation.
A better arrival.
Plan your journey around weather, daylight and the needs of your group.
Before leaving home
Check the forecast and road conditions. Bring suitable winter footwear and layers; allow extra travel time. Review your arrival instructions for parking and snow-clearing arrangements.
Keep the plan flexible
A non-skiing day is part of a good mountain trip, too. Check current operations before leaving the house rather than relying on a previous day’s report.

A table for every kind of day.
Breakfast before an outing, a casual meal afterward, or an evening out. The restaurant guide keeps hours and seasonal notices in one place.
Start with coffee or breakfast

Après, your way.
Browse pubs, breweries and dinner options, then check service for your dates.
