Special Date Tip: Try to avoid the holiday season (just before Christmas to just after New Years). This is the busiest time of year for any ski resort and high demand creates higher prices for everything from lodging to lift tickets.

2. Book one larger Apex rental property instead of multiple hotel rooms.

If you've got a group larger than what fits comfortably in a standard hotel room, you're better off looking at Apex rentals for condos or chalets. A three bedroom chalet is almost always cheaper than three hotel rooms. It will also sleep the same number of people in at least the same amount of space.

Alternatively, if you're a couple or a small group, renting owner-direct is often cheaper as rental management fees and often hotel taxes are avoided.

3. Get acquainted with the Apex mountain - for free!

Apex Mountain Resort offers free daily Mountain Orientation Tours. Guests interested in joining one of these tours should meet in front of the Fresh Tracks Cafe at 10am or 1:15 pm.

4. Lose the boots and slip on some ice skates.

Of course you came to Apex Resort for the skiing/riding but why not take an evening and try out some ice skating at the Adventure Skating Loop? The loop is 1 km long, snakes through the trees and is lit until 11pm. Other than ice skate rentals, this is a free activity and one that shouldn't be missed. The resort even hosts free skating parties which include complimentary hot chocolate and a bonfire on occassion.

5. Ski under the stars for a fraction of the day rate!
