Heck-the Foggy Goggle alone is worth the trip to 7 Springs!

It's the kids... Doing some calculus..
Humm, this is tempting even if 7S is a zoo on Saturdays..

Well TWO barns..no contest then!I completely understand your hesitation. After all, February 9 is Stop Swap and Save day.

I mean who in their right mind would spend a day chasing iffy snow when there's a chance to haggle over sketchy carbon and alu bits in a barn at the Carroll County Ag center?
Edit: Sorry, two barns and an extension.
Well they have a lot of rocks in their heads..sooo...\
Get them some rock skis?
Yeah I have a 4 year old and a 1 year old. So trying to figure out who goes where and for how long.It's a small area with ONE chairlift and almost like a private club atmosphere. Perfect place to turn kids loose to ski on their own as long as they know which run to NOT go down unless they are good. Really easy to find your crew at this place. I do know you've got a toddler too. Not sure about their ski wee or day care options. That is definitely something you need to have covered for a weekend trip.

That place is cool.
Before you get all excited, this place is slopeside but at Hidden Valley, not Seven Springs. Hidden Valley is about a 20 minute drive from Seven Springs.
I agree that a ski house could flip the script for Saturday and Sunday. Skiing Saturday morning early taking a break at the house from about 11:30 until late afternoon when the crowds settle down could be a form of crowd management. That's only if a ski house is in play though.
Reminded me of one of the Gathering homes we rented at BK. Shame so far. Are there home rentals at Seven Springs that offer similar (easy) access to the slopes? I've never been to Seven Springs -- as a basis of comparison, how bad are the Saturdays compared to the Poconos on a Saturday (assuming one's been to both)? I know the itinerary is Laurel on Saturday, but if we come, it'll be with some park-loving teens who will likely stay put that day.
Check Airbnb. I found a bunch; some are already booked in February, some are not.

There is a lot of easy ski-in/ski-out at Seven Springs. And a lot of it is pricey. I don't remember the price at BK or T'line for sure, but I'm guessing Seven Springs will be a lot more expensive. (Of course, BK is particularly cheap.) I think there are a lot of smaller condos and townhouses at Seven Springs, and a 4 or 5 bedroom house isn't common... but a townhouse might be.
Sounds like lodging should be pretty easy to come by so we'd likely snap something up as it gets closer, but if a group house or condo materializes, we'll seriously consider it.
