“From what I gather, this place excels with its ski-in/ski-out setup, a true advantage for hitting the slopes directly. I'm particularly drawn to the luxury Lake Club-private beach access paired with gourmet amenities sounds like a sublime escape. It seems a family could settle in nicely here, especially with kid-centric activities thoughtfully planned.”
