Oh look they’re doing it right! Caberfae Peaks has been busy in the off-season making improvements on the mountain, too, where they’ve invested a sh’load of money in replacing/augment their snowmaking capabilities, added a few new boxes to their terrain parks, and have widened a few of the trails by as much as 50%.
Also, you can get insanely discounted Caberfae Peaks (Michigan) Lift Tickets from $8.99 (Save 79%) 
Grab a couple friends, stay at McGuire’s resort nearby, and get a discounted season pass for $239 per person. If the season pass isn’t your thing they have several options for discounted multi-day lift ticket packages. Additionally kids stay & sleep free (midweek) with two paying adults.
Novices beware, much of Caberfae’s terrain is not groomed mid-day – I happen to think this used to be part of the resort’s charm, but people who aren’t as experienced don’t normally like the rutted out moguls by 4pm.
Caberfae Peaks is in the Northern lower peninsula, about 20 minutes past Cadillac city on M-55. If you need help getting there check google maps.
