Mike Wiegele – Bavarian Estate and Cabana
Mike Wiegele’s primary location, the Blue River Resort has countless packages to choose from. At the Resort, you’ll be accommodated in a large-scale village.
For many heli-skiers, a communal type lodging is simply not preferred - privacy, elegance and opulence are the characteristics which present appeal. Skiers that are looking for the same skiing experience available at the Resort, but with an exclusive, private retreat will find that the Mike Wiegele – Bavarian Estate and Cabana will fit their every need.
This optional add-on comes with the same benefits as the main resort and the same access to skiing terrain. The only difference is that you’ll be separated from the rest of the herd with your own exclusive accommodations. It’s the perfect place for families, groups of friends, or those just looking to get away from the main social element of the village.
