"I organized a departmental ski trip for other PhD students in my department and another department. We had 20 attendees total; we drove up from Evanston (4hrs) in six cars. We had no issues sleeping everyone. There are only two bathrooms, which can be a limiting factor if everyone expects to shower. Most of our group downhill skied on Saturday at Granite Peak. We fortunately came immediately after the first snow storm of the season; it was good quality skiing, even compared to western US skiing. I took folks in my carpool to cross-country ski on Sunday at the Nine Mile Forest Cross-Country Skiing and Snowshoeing compound. This compound was clean and serene - certainly worth the entrance fee. Jennifer was a responsive, kind, and organized host. The house is well-designed for large groups: we made tacos on Saturday evening with an enormous variety of meats (5) and toppings (~15). The kitchen was well-stocked and we could prepare our meal without issue. The large island allowed a large number of people to cut and prepare food in parallel; it was a lot of fun but also efficient. The couch area is also quite large and allowed us to transition into a game night easily. Overall, I highly recommend this location for a large gathering."

"Our Rib Mountain property made for a comfortable retreat while skiing at Granite Peak. The house was exceptionally clean and spacious for our family. The well appointed property allowed us convenient access to Wausau but was cozy enough to stay in if we did not want to go out. Our hosts facilitated family time with an abundance of games and gathering “zones” throughout the house. I recommend anyone without pets and a moderate sized group to consider this property."

"We come to Wausau annually for a ski trip and this has been the best place we’ve stayed at by far. For experienced riders, you can drop in at the State Park just up the road from the house. Otherwise Granite Peak is just a short seven minute drive away. We had four adults and five kids in our group, there was plenty of space for everyone. The hosts have done a wonderful job to make the cabin feel just like home and the hot tub is an added bonus! Thanks Kari and Ivan for everything."

"Easy in-and-out. Has indoor pool, though we didn't use it, looks comfy and relaxing. "
