You may not realize it but Shanty Creek is a pretty, big deal.
How big is it? About 5,000 acres. That’s almost 8 square miles! Within that footprint are three distinct Shanty Creek villages—Cedar River, Schuss, and Summit—each with its own lodging options, dining venues, and out-the-door recreation.
To help you choose the village that fits you best, the following overview should help you better understand the resort’s three villages. And if you’d like, we’d be happy to explain further: Just call a Reservations Agent at 866-695-5010.
