Blondies’ tagline is “Good, honest food” which we think is a good, honest description of what you’re going to get. Is the inside incredibly charming? Yes. Is it within walking distance from the house? Yes. Is it the best food you’ve ever had? No. But it’s a staple of Arrowbear Lake and a nice, quick bite.

You’ll go to Snow Drift and think, “wow this is the kind of unregulated fun that your parents talked about when they were kids”. It’s $20 to get in (even if you’re just a parent who wants to watch—that’s how they get ya!) and has a bunch of different slopes. A blast for kids, especially.

旅行者へのアドバイス
必要な持ち物
If you travel in the wintertime, BRING TIRE CHAINS
They will be required up the mountain if it is snowing, and getting your car stuck is more trouble than it's worth. Get them down the mountain because all of the mountain stores upcharge them knowing they can grift unsuspecting travelers.
必要な持ち物
Pack some warm clothes
Even in the Summer, the nights (and sometimes even the days!) can get pretty chilly. We've had snow until Mother's Day.
