- The Treeline Lodge Resort

is nestled in
the Adirondack Mountains.

It is one of a few

family-owned ski resorts
still running.

Legend has it Great-Grandpa
was bathing in a river,

much to the relief
of his family,

when he found
a rare gold nugget,

which he used to buy up
the land and the mountain.

He built the first part of
the lodge himself from timber.

In truth, Grandma did most
of the work.

He opened the ski lodge
in 1936.

Why? He missed skiing
and sledding.

He was Norwegian.

I know all of this,

because my family
owns the lodge.

It's been passed down
generation to generation,

each year getting
a little older.

Anyone who ever stays
at the Treeline Resort

will tell you
it's always been special.

All kinds of people
meet here.

It's where my mom and dad met.
It's where they got married.

I was actually born here.

Now I work as the events
coordinator with my dad.

I help him manage the lodge.

Welcome to the Treeline.
Do you have a reservation?

How may I help you?

And some people, like me,

have other reservations.

Reservations about love.

I checked out of that room
a long time ago

and somehow lost the key.

- Hello.

- Whoo-hoo!
We made it!

Winners have arrived.

Oh, Tay-Tay,
look at those slopes.

- Yeah, I'll be looking at them
from the lodge,

because as you know,
I don't ski.

- Yeah, so you relax,
I'll ski,

we'll both have a great time.

[car horn honks]

Hey!

You're standing
in the middle of the road.

If we're going
to get run over,

let the snowboarders
do it.

- Enjoy your stay.

- We're all booked up, sir.

I'm sorry.

I'm not sorry at all.
We are sold out.

Yeah!
- [laughs]

And my new Room Reserve
software is doing great.

Told you it was worth it.

- I'm so excited
that Duffy Johnson

is coming back.

I remember his silver run
at Calgary.

You know where
he learned to ski?

- Here.

- Right here on our mountain.

The prodigal son returning.
I can't wait till he gets here.

- Oh, well he got here
yesterday.

He's probably out
on the mountain right now.

- I mean, skiing is my life,
right?

Going down the mountain,

that is the life
rushing at you.

Boom, boom, boom.

You can't be afraid
of the twists and turns

and the gnarly moguls.

You just got to power through.

Right?

You got to enjoy the ride.

You got to enjoy the ride.

Well, it's been great
talking to you.

I've always been
a good listener.

See you on the slopes.

[sighs]

- Are you going to make
the trees tonight?

[both laugh]

- [gasps]
Oh.

I'll check us in.
- Okay.

- Hello. Welcome.
- Hi.

How can I help you?
- I'm Kay Griffin, checking in.

- Okay. Okay, Kay?
- Yes.

- Welcome to the Treeline.
I'm Tom, the hotel manager.

- Oh, hi. I'm Tay.
Nice to meet you.

This tree is beautiful.

Is it a balsam fir?

- It is, in fact,
a balsam.

Scientific name:
Abies balsamea.

It's one of my favorite
conifers.

Curious fact: most conifers
are evergreens, but not--

- Not all evergreens
are conifers.

- Conifers. Exactly.

- I won the package
on Winner Winner.

- Oh, I love that game show--
oh, you were the one

that jumped in the ball pit
with the kids.

That was amazing.
- Yeah.

- I don't mean to babble.

If there is anything
you need

while you're here,
let me know.

- Maybe a little hot water.

- Oh, we have it
in every room.

Replaced the water heater
last summer.

It set us back a little,

but that's to be expected.

- I meant for tea.

- [sighs]

Of course.
It's over there.

I'll show you.
- Oh, thanks.

- These are our
signature teas.

We have sugar cookie
sleigh ride,

snow day,

a sugar plum spice,
candy cane lane,

and cranberry vanilla
wonderland.

- Hmm.

I think I'm babbling again.
- Oh, no, I don't mind.

You have a very nice voice.

- [chuckling] Oh, well...

- Hey, let's move that bottom.

I got to hit the slopes.

- I'm sorry.
It was so nice to meet you.

- Likewise.

- Hey, looks like
you met somebody.

- We were just talking.

- Yeah, well,
that's how it starts, sis.

[laughs]

- Dadi, it's beautiful.

- Preena, it's freezing.
- I'm fine.

Looks just like the picture.

- This is not a college.

- They have a ski school here.

- Preena, you told me we were
visiting another college.

- No college is open, Dadi.
- [gasps]

- We are going to experience
a nice American Christmas.

- We should have gone back
to India.

- It'll be fun.

Do you really want
to fly back 17 hours to India,

then fly back
a week later?

- Pass me
the heavy ones, son.

- Oh, I got the bags.

Mom, why don't you and Dad
head inside and check in.

- Thank you, Leo.

- Okay.

- [squeals and laughs]

Stay here.

I'll get someone
to help with the luggage.

Can you help
with the luggage?

- Me?

- Do you go
to Dartmouth?

- Yeah, I'm a freshman.

- That's at the top
of my list.

I'm here because I'm touring
colleges with my grandmother.

I'd love to talk with you
about it.

- You want to talk to me?

- [laughs]

- Okay.

- Dadi,

this boy goes to Dartmouth.

It's one of the colleges
on my list.

- Load the bags.
- Yes, ma'am.

- Oh, hi.
Welcome to the Treeline.

How can I help you?

- Well, you can help me

by telling my granddaughter
to stay home

and not come to America
for her education.

- Okay.

- Maybe we can talk
later about Dartmouth.

Give me the inside scoop.

- Uh...

- Let's meet at Trivia.
- Trivia?

- Christmas Trivia.

It's an online brochure.

Don't you know
about your own activities?

- Oh, that Trivia. Sure.

- [laughs]
Unless you have to work.

- Work?

- Yes, work.

More hip, less lip.

- I want a Lab.
- A poodle.

Hey, Dad?

- Yes, Miles.

- Since our birthdays
are coming up,

we thought we could have more
responsibilities with a dog.

- Aviana, the problem is,
I'm going to be turning

the big 4-0, and I don't want
to be chasing a dog

all over the place,
so we are not getting a dog.

Okay.

I will think about it.

- Are you done
thinking about it?

- [laughs]
No, not yet.

- Well, hurry up.
- Hey.

- Come on, Dad.
Think faster.

- I'm trying, I'm trying.
Here comes the valet. Hold on.

- What about the dog?

- Hold on a second.

I'm thinking about
something else.

Hey, how much snow
do you get here a year?

- Uh, I don't know.

- Sure do get a lot
of sunlight.

What's the average
temperature?

- Cold.

- Nice.

[chuckling]

Fill it up.
Electric.

For you.

Come on, kids.
Thank you.

- Bye-bye.

- Hey, Dad, did you remember
to confirm the Santa Claus

to ski down the mountain
on Christmas Eve?

- How could I forget
a thing like that?

- Oh, no. No.

Room Reserve
is crashing.

- Don't worry--

- The screen is frozen.

- I have a backup.

Unlimited hard drive,

infinite memory.

No password required.

- Okay, well, you continue to
check the guests in old-school,

I'm going to go to the office
and see if I can reboot it.

- Okay.

Hello, and welcome--

- Paper. Do you have
any paper?

Do you mind?

- Well, be my guest,
which you are.

- Does that look right to you?
- I'm not sure what that is.

- It's thermoelectric.
Snow power's go power.

I'm into renewable energy.

Kevin Portillo checking in.

- Portillo.

You have my register book.

- Sorry.

- Yes, well, you're Room 345.
Baggage?

- Just my kids, which...?

- Come on. Give it to me.
- Let me see.

- Oh, great. Thank you.
- Room 345.

And you have my--

- Kids. Hey.

[taps paper]

- You wrote on the back
of next December.

That is his job.

- So I'll see you later?

- Yeah, sure.

- Thank you.

What?

It's not enough?

- Leo, your father
wants to go skiing.

- Right there, Mom.

- You don't work here?

- Uh, no, I just wanted
to help.

- Out!

Why are you smiling?

- He's cute.

And he goes to Dartmouth.

We're going to meet him
at trivia.

- Oh, this was a mistake.

- Come on, wake up.

Come on.

- Holly, you okay?

- I'm okay, I think.

Who just checked in?

- I'll have to check
my database.

Kevin Portillo is here.

- Who's Kevin Portillo?

- [sighs]

- Daddy, look at all the
Christmas things we get to do.

- Yeah.

That's great.

Holly?

- Hey.

[laughs]

I got one for you too. Here.

- Thank you.

Okay, I'm going
to put it on.

- [laughs]

It looks great on you.

- Thank you.

- We're going to have
so much fun.

Are you sure you don't want
to hit the slopes?

You can take a lesson.

- Nah. I'm good.

I think I'm just going
to take a shower

and go sit down
by the fireplace and read.

Enjoy your skiing.

- Oh, I will.

- Hi. This is Tay Griffin
for Dr. Fulichen.

Oh. Oh, she's not in. Okay.

All right, yeah,
I'll call back later.

Thanks.

- Seven days of Christmas.

This is so exciting.
They do everything here.

Dadi, look,
there's a snowman contest,

Build a gingerbread house.

Wreath-making.

Santa skis down the mountain
on Christmas Eve.

I know you didn't want
to come here,

but look how much fun
it's going to be.

- What is this?

- That's my bathing suit.

- Did you leave
the rest of it in India?

- We're not in India.

- We shouldn't even be here.

I told your father

I had reservations
about bringing you here.

- I'm going to college here.

That is what I want.

Let's embrace
American traditions.

- Sledding?

Oh, this was a mistake.

- You two are very quiet.

- We didn't want to disturb you
when you were thinking.

- You know, about the--

- Oh, yes, yes, yes.
Right.

Hmm, I have given that
some thought.

So you both know how to speak
Spanish with your abuela.

Mm-hmm.

You both know how
to speak English, obviously.

So I think that it's important
that you both know

how to speak dog

before we can get a dog.

For example,
what does this mean?

[barking]

- You're hungry.

- You want to play ball.

- No. Sorry.

That meant I needed to go
for a walk.

But you two keep working
on those language skills, okay?

[cell phone chimes]
Hold on.

[sighs]

[grumbles]

- I heard that.

You're angry.

- See? We can speak dog.

♪

- [laughs]

Have a great day, guys.

Hey!

I saw you shredding
on Eagle's Nest.

You really look like
you own that run.

- Duffy Johnson.

I recognize you.

Wow. How are you, silver boy?

- [laughs]
That's right.

That's right, silver,
'88, Calgary.

I'm not saying I set
the world record

or anything, but...

- Yeah, 'cause then
you would have won the gold.

[both laugh]

Besides, I was just
talking about your beard.

- [laughs]
Oh.

Single?

- Not by choice.

After my husband passed,

I just couldn't find a guy
who could keep up with me.

- I was talking about
the ski lift line,

but that's good to know.

- Single?

- Here!

- Hey, what's your name?

- See you on the slopes!

- That's a funny name.

- [clears throat]

- Hey, Dad. I got here early
and started setting up.

I'll do the trivia
and you do the s'mores, Dad.

- You still burn
the marshmallows?

Hello, Holly.

- Hello, Kevin.

- How are you?

- I'm good. You?

- Doing okay.

- I never thought
I'd see you again.

- Neither did I.
I mean, last I heard

you were working at
the Marriott on Marco Island.

I had no idea
you were working here.

- Well, I came up here
to help my dad run the place

when my mom died.

It's been eight years.
Never left.

- So sorry.
I didn't know.

- Yeah, well, we haven't really
spoken much since college.

- I tried to find you online.

You have zero social media
footprint.

- Yeah, well, the Wi-Fi here
is really bad

I've got to finish
setting up, so--

- Well, here,
let me help you.

- No, no, no.
I can't let you do that.

You're a guest,
you know?

You know, what if
I accidentally

drop a table
on your head?

- Hmm.

Now that's the Holly
I remember.

I think I'll take my chances
with her. Come on.

[light music]

- [animal snarling]

- Did you hear that?

Something's over there.

- [dog barks]

- Aah!

Did you see that reindeer?

- That wasn't a reindeer.
It was a dog.

With a stick.

Our dog.

Santa must have
brought it early.

- So, last time
we saw each other...?

- May 12, 2002.

Graduation.

- Seen anyone
from school?

- Not really. You?

- Went to a few reunions.

- Oh, I went to the tenth.

- I missed that one.

That was when
my wife died.

- Oh, I'm so sorry.
I had no idea.

- It was six months
after our son was born.

The only mother
they know is me.

I don't make them
clean their rooms.

They have no set bedtimes.

And they have to eat
what I like, which is great,

because I make the best
huevos rancheros.

- Yum.

- [chuckles]
So you live nearby?

- Yeah, down the hall.
Room 111.

- Ah.

With your husband?

- No.

- Boyfriend?

- No.

So tell me more
about your kids.

- Oh, my kids.

[sighs]
Where did they go?

I told them not
to go outside.

- How old are they?

- 11 and 12.

- They're outside.
Come on.

- Aviana? Miles?

Aviana? Miles?

- Don't tell Dad
about the dog.

We stick to the plan.
- Business as usual.

- Miles?

- You know, I can't believe
you lost your kids.

- I didn't lose them.

They're probably
hiding somewhere.

- This is like that time
we went camping

and you lost the keys,

and then we got stuck
out there.

- Okay, I can admit this now.

The keys weren't really lost.

I was just trying to spend
more time with you.

- What? You made us walk

five miles to the nearest
service station.

That was so sweet.

- I'm really happy
to see you.

Oh, no.
Quick, now.

Oh, you--[grumbles]

Hey, I could use
a little help here.

- Yeah, no,
I'm on their side.

- Oh, you did not.

[both laugh]

Okay, okay, okay.

Aviana, Miles, come here.

This is my friend, Holly.

We went to college together.

- Nice to meet you guys.

[laughs]

- Hey.

I'm starting to get
these weather advisories.

Winter Storm Megan
is on its way.

- Oh, that's nice.

- Not if three feet of snow
close our roads.

- [sighs]
Sorry, Dad.

I have a lot on my mind.

- I can be a pretty good
listener if you want to dish.

- Don't say "dish", Dad.

- I'm all yours.

- You know that guest
that came in with his kids?

Kevin Portillo?
- Mm.

- Well, he and I used to know
each other in college.

- So you guys were buddies?

- We were a bit more
than buddies.

- You must be happy
to see him.

- No! I mean, yes.

[sighs]
I don't know.

- [laughs]

What happened between
you two?

- And that is the ultimate
trivia question.

Oh, which I have
to get ready for.

- Yeah.

- Hello.

My granddaughter would
like to talk to you

about your Dartmouth shirt.

- Give me your phone number
so we can meet up...

to talk about college.

- You can text me
for the meet-up.

- [laughs]

- Ah.

- Yeah--yes, right.
- Right?

- Because I've already
read a whole book.

- Duffy Johnson.

Tom Anderson.
Welcome back to the Treeline.

You might not know this,

but my grandfather gave you
your first lesson.

We were in ski school together.

You dropped out
and went to the Olympics

and, well, I didn't.

- Yeah, good for you.

[snaps fingers]

I got it.

Hey, Tim--
- Tom.

- Tom, Tom, Tommy.

Listen, you see
that woman over there?

- Which one?
- The hot one.

- Oh, yeah? Tom.
- Tommy, you know, the manager.

- Tommy, I need you
to be my wingman.

I want to go over there
and sit with her,

but she's with
her sister.

That's where you
come in.

- I met her sister earlier.

I'll be your wingman

if you play Santa Claus
on Christmas Eve

and ski down
the mountain

with a bag full of presents.

The guests would love it.

- Why?

- I forgot
to hire a Santa.

Whatever. Deal.
Let's do it.

- All right.
Thank you.

- Hello.

Hello, nice to...

nice to see you again, Tay.

I love your matching sweaters.

your name...

It's so nice
to see you again.

our joining you.

- Oh, no.
Of course not.

More, the merrier.

I think I counted
25 nutcrackers in this room.

- Just for one week.

But you know who really
liked her?

Your abuelita.

I mean, after our graduation,

She was a force of nature.

More than any other holiday,

She would start decorating

something fun to do.

Hello? Dr. Fulichen?

Yes, this is she.

Yes.

Is that good?

That's good, right?

Oh, God. Thank you.

Yes, and Merry Christmas
to you too.

Such good news!

You really saved Christmas.

why did you not kiss
that nice young man?

leaving here?

I just--I can't leave my dad.
