Luxury Ski Resort


Sometimes considered the best ski resort in Wisconsin, Devil's Head features skiing, snowboarding, lodging, dining, and so much more. Both boarders and skiers will love the 500-feet of vertical fun. It is a full-service resort right in the Baraboo Bluffs region of the central part of the state. It is located three hours from Chicago, and less than an hour from Madison. The highest mountains in Wisconsin are located here, but skiing is not the only activity that occurs onsite. There is swimming, cross-country skiing, children's activities, and live entertainment. Ski slopes are carefully tended to and groomed twice a day. There are 30 runs for all skill levels, three quad chair lifts, one triple chair lift, sic double chair lifts, and two Magic Carpets that shorten waiting times. Snowmaking abilities are some of the best in the state, so skiers never have to worry about having the best ski terrain in the state.

One of the best parts of Devils Head is that it offers luxury lodging options right onsite. This means when a long, tiring day of skiing has ended, you can retire to your comfortable, well-appointed guestroom. Lodge and Inn rooms are located just steps from the slopes, They feature two double beds, a private bath, a TV, coffee pot, and free wireless Internet access. The Poolside Lodge rooms have a patio or balcony with a view of the outdoor pool. Suites at the Lodge have a private bedroom, a double whirlpool tub, a living room area, two TVs, and 500 square feet of space that is large enough and equipped for four guests. The Glacier Ridge Condominiums are a great option for those who are traveling in a larger group. They sleep up to eight guests and you get a master bedroom and two guests bedrooms, a full bath with two half baths, several TVs, a game room, a dining area, several kitchen appliances, three balconies and a walk-out patio. This option is great for large families or couples getaways.

Dining options are also plentiful at Devil'sHead. The Cliffhaus Cafy offers fresh pizza, sandwiches, soups, salads, burgers and fries in their massive, cathedral peaked cafeteria. This is the place to grab a quick bite before heading back out to the slopes. Dantes Restaurant features slope-side dining and the food is cooked under the copper hood. Their menu is best known for the giant breakfast they serve skiers that includes eggs, fruit, French toast, bacon, and more. The Cornucopia Restaurant serves dinner and is located inside of the main complex. They feature a gourmet menu that showcases the chef's talent with fish, steak, and poultry entrees. Reservations are recommended. Open only during the winter are Smokies Restaurant, an on-slops bar and restaurant with a large fireplace, deck, and a fantastic view of the half pipe and park, and Avalanche Bar and Grill. They have weekend and holiday hours and is a great place for lunch, cocktails, or a quick bite without ever leaving the slopes. They feature sandwiches, brats, burgers, and the ever popular beer buckets.

Devils Head is not just a ski destination, it is a full-service resort.
