I'm not much of a skier/snowboarder myself so I couldn't say how well it translates to the slopes but they both jumped up several levels between lessons at Vail last year and lessons at Keystone this year. More than anything they looked forward to going and loved their instructors. Only downside was I couldn't. Do any make up classes because their session was only 6 weeks. They both missed a day due to illness so it was a bit disappointing in that respect.

This is a super convenient and cost effective way for little ones to get introduced to skiing and snowboarding. Forget about fighting traffic and weather, renting gear, and paying for lift tickets. If you're looking to introduce your little ones to snow sports, Shredder is the ticket. This location in particular is a big space that is dated with a cheerleading gym. Which means there are lots of things to keep kids busy and exhausted before and after class.

5 stars for the beginner pottery class I took on Saturday! This class, taught by Kaito (likely not…read morespelling their name correctly), was informative, relaxed, and fun! 12 people total in this 2 hour class. After watching a 20 min step by step guide showing us what we could achieve in this class, we all got started playing with the clay. Not everyone was a beginner, which was fine! Our instructor had plenty of time over the course of our class to visit each station, help us fix mistakes or give us hands on instruction, if needed, and guide us to help us achieve our goal. I appreciated that we were able to "opt out" of hands on instruction if we didn't feel comfortable. That goes a long way for me :)

The co-owners were both actively involved in the class, and on our first visit they guided and assisted me to make a beautiful and artistic tea light candle dish that I get to take home! It will be a keep sake forever in my guest bathroom. I was actively involved in blowing and creating the glass & got to choose a variety of colors of my choosing for my art piece. The artwork in the holding areas from other students is intriguing and inspiring. Beautiful glass art pieces made in-house! I'm definitely going to sign up for future classes. The class was fun and upbeat! These cool, tatted-up, artistic loving, local small business owners resemble the entire reason I live in Austin! They truly recognize the love for art & fun.

We have also been here as a family during the summer and the pool is lovely. You would want to come early and get a nice shady spot because they will be taken up fast. My kiddo had to do a swimming test to use the diving board in the summer and she failed both times so she had to stay in the larger shallower end of the pool. I appreciated their dedication to safety.

We went on a hike first then decided to come here after. We didn't realize it closed so early on a Saturday, we should have checked. We got there at 4:30, so only had a little to be there. Also looking at prices on this yelp, they have gone up significantly. I see people complaining about $10 a few years ago. It was $25 per adult this time. That was crazy to me, but we had already made this plan and had driven 45 minutes for this, plus it's in the vacation budget. If I lived here I would not come back because of that price. Also if you don't have a towel, they cost $20. This place is beautiful and I loved my time here, it will be a great memory, but that price is crazy. If I come back to Denver I may look for another place that may be like this.
