The group of guys working at the shop in Keystone were friendly and extremely patient. The guys in the shop never batted an eye and were extremely patient. The family in front of me was a single mom with two children under the age of ten. One of which was a child with special mental needs that was yelling most of the time. The guys never lost their cool and were extremely helpful. The boots and skis I rented were fairly priced and in excellent condition. The location is easy to drive to or walk to if you stay near River Run.

My skis were unbelievable sticky. I took them in to Christy Sports hoping they could help. Dylan Gooch came to my rescue. He said he’d take care of them and to come back in 10-15 min to pick them up. I picked them up and they were better, but I felt they were still slow. At the end of our day I stopped back in and they apologized and threw them back on the equipment and waxed them a second time (at no charge). After that they were perfect!!!! They even apologized that I had to stop back a second time. Great employees - I will shop Christy Sports from now on.

Convenient and courteous. There is no better service for ski rentals. We’ve been D2D for our last 3 ski vacations. Especially, with COVID precautions we wanted to keep any in door time minimized. A shout out to Trevor from our family. He worked great with our young grandkids.

This is a great mountain! Skiing is excellent and the mid mountain restaurant is excellent and reasonable. Getting away from Vail Associates was a very good move.

Chef Kevin Simley and the team promise a delicious dining experience in the rustic elegance of the Keystone Ranch.

Diners are invited to enjoy dessert, coffee, and post-meal merriment in the outlet's signature living room, overlooking the scenic Keystone Ranch golf course and surrounding Rocky Mountain beauty.

Extensive terrain covering three mountains offers a wide variety of trails for skiers plus other activities including snowshoeing, tubing, ice skating and snowboarding.
Reviewed By johnson14 - Leawood, United States
Surrounded by gorgeous mountain scenery, Keystone is a favorite vacation destination for families, either summer or winter. The skiing is very good for families because there is a variety of terrain for all ability levels, including a terrain park. An area is reserved for beginners as you enter the ski area. The lift lines move fast and the lifts take you up the mountain at a good pace. There are restaurants on the mountain that are kid friendly. Keystone has two golf courses, ranch and river, that are challenging for all ability levels, well maintained and groomed. My oldest son and I spent many days on the ranch course when he was growing up and we have fond memories of those days. Keystone offers positive vacation experiences for families, winter and summer, that will result in memories they will cherish.

We always book thru snake river shop at Keystone,and this last trip will keep us renting from them for a lifetime! Amid the virus scare, this shop refunded our money for unused rental days with zero hesitation! They’ve always been helpful, but they went above and beyond during this shutdown of all resorts! Will be back next year!
