Matterhorn
at Big Powderhorn Mt.
The Matterhorn's Convenient Trailside Location allows guests to downhill ski, cross country ski, or snowmobile all from the front door! Guests can return to the Matterhorn from the top of lifts #5, #6, #7, #8, or #9 at any time. Warm up, change clothes, or have lunch without leaving the ski hill. Our family likes to firing up the gas grill and enjoy lunch on the deck as other skiers pass by on the hill.
The Whirlpool, Sauna, and Fireplace provide guests with several opportunities to warm up, enjoy a drink, and reinvigorate themselves after a long day outdoors. The fireplace, and its accompanying sitting area, is an excellent place to socialize with friends, while the recently installed gas fireplace lets you to avoid the mess and hassle of building a fire. Just flip a switch and the fire turns on! Meanwhile, the large four person hot tub sooths sore muscles and the two-person sauna allows guests to warm up in comfort.
A Fully Equipped Kitchen and Dinning Area has a refrigerator, electric stove, dishwasher, microwave, bottled water, and every small appliance necessary to make your vacation a complete success! The large dinner table maintains a commanding view of the ski hill, and is adjacent to the gas grill and deck. Meanwhile, the two counters with bar stools provide a convenient option for breakfast and lunch.
An Expansive Living Area accompanies both the fireplace and kitchen. The couch provides ample room for everyone to enjoy the 27-inch TV with cable, VCR, and DVD/CD player! But for those energetic kids with active imaginations, the balcony boasts a large card table and several board games, Big Powderhorn Lodging Association maintains an ice skating rink, Big Powderhorn Mountain has a swimming pool, and the nearby cities of Ironwood, Bessemer, and Hurley offer plenty of indoor and outdoor recreational opportunities.
