Summer visit. Spent 3 days there for the 4848 Festival. Nice accommodations at Expedition Station close to everything. Two main stages plus the boathouse area stage featuring live music. Over 18+ acts performing different genres of live music high on the mountain. Vendors, crafts, food, beer, children's activities, swimming, kayaks, mountain biking, lift rides, shopping, something for everyone.

Snowshoe was a fantastic place to take my kids for their first ski vacay. We drove up from Orlando for spring break, which was a complete mission, but so worth the 14 hour drive! Spring conditions are unpredictable at any resort in the world, but the slopes were well groomed and set for great morning of skiing. The afternoons were a little soft, but still enjoyable. The ski school staff were amazing, the lift attendants were always helpful and giving my sons loads of encouragement! The village has plenty to offer and it’s affordable for a single mom to take her kids to ski! The restaurants are not overpriced so it’s brilliant to be able to eat out at lunch and dinner, as well as enjoy apres drinks without worrying about the cost. I do agree that staff in certain parts of the resorts could have been friendlier, but I never found anyone outright rude, just a little fed up and short (end of the season attitude). The only complaint was that the wifi was so unpredictable and slow that I couldn’t get any work done like I needed to 😬 I can’t wait to return earlier in the season next year and experience the mountain in peak condition!

Two major complaints! We’re here now on our second sellout day in a row. Everything is incredible with two exceptions. First and foremost, their lift infrastructure is severely lacking. At 1200 vertical feet, the runs are pretty nice and long compared to other mountains in the area, but when you get to the bottom, be prepared to wait 20 minutes or more in line before you get on their slow, non-high speed static lifts. We waited in line for 40 minutes once to get on the Ballhooter lift, which is the only one that takes you back up to the village. Second issue is there is tons of housing at the top of the village, but there are not nearly enough restaurants in the area. During peak lunch and dinner times, expect a 2+ hour wait. This is an incredible place if you own your own helicopter and pack your own lunch. (jk) Seriously, if they fixed those two issues, this place really could be an incredible ski resort.

Highly recommend! We visit the ‘Shoe almost every month in the winter time! It’s one of our most visited places and the mini getaway we always look forward to! LOVE IT HERE!

Yes James, there is one on the mountain called "Wildcat Provisions." That said, they have a small selection and their prices are high (though not terrible), so it is recommended to bring your own groceries if you can.

How are the roads to get to the mountain lodge. Do you need an AWD/4x4 vehicle or a regular FWD sedan can also get there? I'm planning to be there last week of December

Rahul Gupta | Jan 9, 2021
Ryan Hernandez | Jan 10, 2021

If you go up the winding way from the snowshoe inn you'll be fine. The roads are maintained and traveled regularly so its no big. You can also try to go up the backside with any kind of vehicle at about 5 mph. I recommend taking the main route, also you're going to want to grab some delicious food from the shop at the bottom anyway. Enjoy your trip.

Sally Stuyvesant | Oct 11, 2020
Daniel Miller | Oct 12, 2020

Mountain bikes down the mountain with chair lift back or you can go farther into the backcountry. They also have allterrain vehicle rentals, Segway rentals, outdoor pool with a jacuzzi, beach on a lake with kayak and canoe rentals, and hiking. I would recommend the hike up to the fire tower to get a great view of the valley over as well as back to the resort.

Is there a place at the bottom of the mountain to watch the skiers come down? My grandma doesn’t ski and wants to go to watch.

Taylor Tobin | Feb 9, 2020
Charles Hoezee | Feb 10, 2020

Snowshoe is a "reverse" mountain in the sense that you drive to the top of the mountain, where the lodge is, ski down and ride the lift back up. There are 1-2 spots at the bottom of the slope that serve coffee, hot cocoa, light food, etc. They are decent vantage points. Not sure which slopes they are at the bottom of, but just look at the map. Hope this helps!

How much does it usually cost for 2 people for a weekend as far as lodging goes?

Tommy Burford | Feb 9, 2019
Carolina Jaramillo | Feb 10, 2019

We just came back and we paid around $300 at the Mountain Lodge for a 2 bedroom condo. It had a very well equipped kitchen and had access to the slopes/lift right out of the lobby. We stayed for 5 nights and it we were very glad that we didn't have to eat out but a couple of times, as the food was expensive and not really good. If you plan to cook, know that the only grocery store up on the mountain is very limited. Come prepared.

Jagman221 221 | Feb 10, 2020

The cheapest place to Stay is located at the Inn at the bottom of the resort. Usually half the price. It is older and further away from the main resort.

Are their lodging,lift pass, and ski lesson packages for a family of 4? Or snow shoe travel agents? ! Websites hard to navigate. Tia.

Jennifer H | Feb 9, 2018
Shelly Baganski | Feb 10, 2018

You can get packages with ski lift passes, but it's a lot more expensive than booking lodging on an off-site and then purchasing ski passes separately. They don't offer any packages with ski lessons tho.

How do I know when (date) they start tubing and skiing?

holly dorrier | Feb 9, 2018

Generally, the whole resort is open for skiing/tubing (and many other things), but i'm pretty sure the Snowshoe Mtn website usually updates daily snowfall and man made snow levels.
