Uber/Lyft to ski resorts - any experience
Hi folks,
I was wondering if you had any experience of using Uber/Lyft to/from the ski resorts? The reason that I'm asking is that I'm currently expressing interest on going to the Dagmar (and possibly the Lakeridge Ski) resort . Sadly, I never learned how to ski or snowboard before and that's why I have these resorts planned on my bucket list. I don't drive myself and the biggest barrier on getting to/from the resort without a car - is transportation.
I've inquired to these resorts if they have (or planning) to offer a bus shuttle near my area. While the folks at Dagmar liked my suggestion, the folks at Lakeridge gave me an extreme sarcastic response. They advised me that Uber or Lyft are my suggestions. Only concern is - not all Uber/Lyft drivers aren't willing to go longer distances that are beyond the ridesharing providers' operating territory (either when going to the resort or coming back from it). Coupled with that (and despite the cheapest option), not all will carry ski/snowboarding gear to/from the resort.
I was wondering if anyone of you folks have any experience on using Uber (or Lyft) to/from the ski resorts and what are some of the lessons learned when using a ridesharing service to/from the resorts (not just the aforementioned resorts I had mentioned, but Blue Mountain, Brimacombe, etc.)?
