Each club is different

It’s an investment up front, the joining fee is a bit but that’s once off, was $1k for family of 4.
Subs are not much, $190pa for a couple, kids are cheap.

It’s the accommodation savings and parking hassles that really make the difference though.

We pay $45 a night per adult and $30 per child, that’s fully catered with awesome meals.
So no carting groceries up the mountain, ski bags and a small bag for the family for a week. I leave the booze in the car and get out as we need.

No early mornings to get there, 5 minute walk to the lifts, and with small kids it means that when they are over it you can just take them back to the lodge, always other kids to play with and head back up for a board.

We have a blast there, even when the weather is shit there are always good people to meet and talk to. I do drink way too much there
