One of the Big Cedar Wliderness Club amenities is an excellent shuttle service. Takes you all over the Big Cedar property and as far as the Top of the Rock restaurant. It is virtually at your bekon and call. It is one of the amenites included in the $5.00 per unit/day resort fee. What would be an appropriate tip for the driver? Rides are no more than 5 minutes.

We always tip a shuttle driver $1 ea. for short trips and $1 per piece of luggage.

I just got back from Valdoro Lodge in Breckenridge, and they have a shuttle van like that as well. I tipped $2-3 per ride. There was no per-day resort fee at this place.

BTW, I had my 5 y.o. daughter always give the driver the tip -- the drivers seem to appreciate it.

Yes, I tipped the guy at Shawnee last year, a couple of dollars per ride. We seemed to be the only ones using the shuttle (the place wasn't very crowded and most people had their own cars) and he was very nice, brought the van right up to the door of our unit, waited patiently for the kids to get on and strapped in.
