Great resort and lodging.
Positives:
- ski school outstanding. Great instructors, quick efficient grading process. Outstanding value. Max 7 students, but we were usually in a group of 2 or 3.
- the Cirque is very modern, great location, hot tub and pool just outside the door. Very clean and well run.
- overall the total cost of this 10 day stay was 30% less than most other nearby resorts (Vail, Aspen etc)
- mountain was really well laid out. Amazing beginner slopes on the West side.
The criticism of CM is that is is a bit soulless. I reckon this is partially true, but the restaurants were very good, and the village was fine. Just not too many people, which was a big positive. Frankly, the only criticism I had was that it is so bloody high it took us two days to get used to the altitude. Otherwise we loved CM and The Cirque
