Michael, we agree, Crystal Mountain is a great location to go for some R & R. The ski slopes are right there, plus there are plenty of other activities to participate in. This 2nd floor condo sleeps 7 in 2 bedrooms and has a gas fireplace to relax by after a day on the slopes. It is also pet friendly.
