I posted after my last visit to Bansko in February how much i thought the resort had come, having visited Bansko at least once every winter for the last 4 years.
Many more bars, supermarkets and finished complex's make it look and feel like it is taking shape.
However the biggest issue seems to be the roads, paths, street lighting (which i know has happened now on many of the roads) and general landscape. A lack of refuse collections etc also doesn't help.

Does anyone who lives there know if there is a plan of attack by the local municipality to actually resolve some of these issues????

They do seem to be doing the streets (lighting/paving/road surfacing/gas/electric under ground in the correct way get it all done in one go rather than as per UK do the road then dig i up to put in different services.
Outside of Bansko (Outside Sofia to Bansko) Road improvements have been very drastic over the last few years a huge improvement - last time I went the only issue was Sofia itself then that ring road would be complete and a much quicker trip to Bansko (well maybe 10 -15 mins ...

I'm looking forward to going out there for a week or 2 in the summer Aug beer Jazz festival. Really going there for a total relax & enjoy being cut off from the rest of the world (i.e. no English papers available which I find really enjoyable - the world keeps on going no matter what happens).
Might try to walk up the mountain to do the 7 lake walk. Or then again hang around the Pirin Golf Country club reading a few books round o 2 of golf enjoy outdoor pools & probably take quite a few DVD films for the evenings - or then again just a nice bottle or 2 on the balcony with my amazing wife.

Is the Golf course open to non owners??? Are all 18 holes open yet? If so any ideas on a cost of a round?I hope the streets, paths and general landscape is improved during teh course of this year - it will all add to the feel good factor - which in my humble opinion is starting to come slowly to the place. The reviews and reports back on this discussion board have been more positive than negative.
p.s Amazing wife?? - Do you rent her out
