Sundown Mountain Resort

Lori was tremendously helpful in providing personalized feedback, going out of her way to help us progress, and thinking of skills in different ways to help things like turning click for us better! Lori even took my boyfriend down the beginner run hours after our lesson, which greatly improved his confidence and allowed us both to go from bunny slope to beginner run in just 2 visits! My only request from..."

"Our family was so impressed with Sundown! We were visiting family in Dyersville and made the short trek over on a whim and are so happy we did! It was the BEST way to kick off the new year and one of our favorite memories as a family. We arrived just in time to pay, book a lesson, get our gear and head out!
