This Mountain has first class prices, but it's a second class Mountain. And if you're not a club…read moremember, you're treated as a third class citizen. I skied primarily during the week and the snow was in all fairness very good. I will not be renewing my pass next season. The prices are more than double the competition and again you feel like they're doing you a favor for letting you ski without sign signing up for the club. ! Who needs that!

To start ... we had a great time snowboarding. The conditions were slushy with 45 F temps (a few…read morepeople skiing in shorts & a "wife beater" t-shirt ... really??). There are some great vertical drops. But... this is a mountain mostly for people with experience. I think it was a small family place that has grown and become more popular. The facilities and slopes haven't kept pace with that growth. -Most of the trails were ungroomed -Trails are not marked properly ... something is labeled a black diamond on the slopes, but a double-black on the map -There is one green run for kids and only 2 wide open blues -Most of the blue runs are chutes or narrow lanes -There are 2 lifts only. Crowded in the morning, not a big deal later on Lift tickets -Fairly priced -I accidentally bought tix for the wrong date (Sunday instead of the Saturday were were) and there is a $20 "rebooking fee". Seemed like an unnecessary money grab. The staff person was curt and rude. The lodge -Geared towards families that come there a lot (they get lockers) -Apres ski bar/music thing ... which kind of looked fun, just saying -Small and crowded on a Saturday -It's hard to find a table at lunch. Eventhough there are signs warning against it, people put their bags on tables to reserve them. We sat at one such table for 45 min without issue, and the older couple rudely kicked us off saying it was there, they had claimed it and were theirs. -Another 3 tables were pushed together and taken over with piles of half eaten food and a sign saying "don't touch our food". This isn't your personal freaking dining room. -One kid (12 years old?) mouthed off to a staff member (30's?) who responded to the kid "how would you like it if I punched you in the eye". IDK what the kid said and maybe they are related. who knows -2 bathrooms with long lines and the downstairs one was in desperate need of cleaning. -I got a veggie burger that was not a black bean burger as promised and instead some awful veggie patty connoction. It was ok once drowned in ketchup. -The parking terrible. It's $20 for the better lot, which is unpaved and as it got warmer turned into a river of mud. I'll be hosing off my equipment and clothes for sure. Otherwise, the 2nd parking lot filled up and people had to park a 1/2 mile down the road.

I was very skeptical about coming to ski Plattekill in December with some friends, but they assured…read moreme that it would be fun and I did enjoy it. In the Catskills, I've skied Hunter, Windham and Bellearye, each multiple times. Plattekill is the smallest among them, but surprisingly has a 1100 ft vertical drop with skiable 110 acres. The main lift is only a conventional triple chair, so it can't handle a lot of people. The only other chairlift open is the adjacent double chair. It had been fairly cold early in the ski season, so they were able to make a fair amount of snow and had more than half their trails open after Christmas. The drive up is longer than going to the other 3, about 20 min further than Belleayre, which for us was over 3 hrs from NYC. The parking lot was not too crowded when we arrived around 9:30. Even though we did not park far, the hike to the lodge was steeper than I realized and even the area around the lifts were kind of steep and treacherous while carrying gear and hiking in clunky ski boots. My days of racing down the black diamonds are long over. These days, I just like to cruise down the green and blue trails. My favorite trail (and aptly named) has to be Shredded Mozzarella, a blue intermediate trail with undulating terrain and mostly groomed snow. My son really liked the blue trails here. The lodge is very crowded with most families squatting on the tables with their gear. We broke for lunch and were able to find an unoccupied table after a while. The food is typical ski lodge fare of chicken fingers, burgers, hot dogs & fries. I did get some hot chicken noodle soup though.

I recently visited Belleayre Mountain and enjoyed the skiing and snowboarding but had a…read moredisappointing experience with one of the ski lift attendants. There were three of us in line, and the attendant (Wilbert) asked us four separate times how many were in our group. Each time we clearly responded that we had three. Despite this, he repeatedly skipped us and allowed other groups to go ahead. After the fourth time, we attempted to move forward when it was our turn, but we were held back while he continued to pass us over multiple times. We mentioned that this wasn't fair and that it was also holding up the people behind us. Instead of addressing the situation professionally, he pointed behind us and asked the next group how many they had. Fortunately, that group spoke up on our behalf and confirmed that we had been waiting and that there were three of us. Eventually, we were allowed onto the lift, but the way Wilbert handled the situation was unprofessional and unnecessary. We understand lift operations need to run efficiently, but repeatedly skipping guests who are clearly answering your questions is not acceptable. I hope management addresses this so other guests don't have a similar experience.

I had the BEST time at Belleayre Mountain yesterday. My and 3 best buds all used our PTO and took…read moreoff work so that we could enjoy a fresh powder day upstate. I haven't been to Belleayre mountain since I a little kid. Honestly, I appreciate it so much more now that I'm paying for my own ski pass. I loved how fast each of the lines moved and there honestly wasn't many people on the mountain at all. I really enjoyed all of their different trails. From tricky double black diamonds and really fun blues, to chill greens and even a fun terrain trail, the mountain had a ton to offer. They even had nice little sections that went through the trees, that weren't too difficult to navigate. If you're a beginner, they also have a really nifty learning center up at the TOP of the mountain. You literally have to take a gondola up the mountain to reach it.. which is just super cool and something I haven't seen anywhere else. I was about to take a star off because of the very blase (pronounced: blazzay) attitudes of the gen-z staff that work at the rental section. I rented a helmet and that just made it a bit of an awkward experience. Though I decided to keep the star as their bartender service more than made up for it. They were so chill and welcoming, and didn't even flinch when I asked about non-alcoholic beers.. which they had ice-cold and ready to go!

I can't really speak on value or basically anything like that but I can say. What my dad likes…read moreabout this place is the chance and way to be able to refill his ski pass or something like that. But for me personally if you aren't skiing here the best time is just relaxing in the warm cozy lodge, that has many a bathroom usage.

When you get to the resort at 9am, the lines are insane. Rentals took me 1.5 hours to get thru, which ate a big portion of my snowboarding time. Overall, the mountain was okay tho. There were a decent amount of people, but the lift wait times weren't bad. The slopes are in decent condition but they are super short!

The mountain itself is fine, but the kids' lessons here are awful and a total waste of money. We…read morepaid $250 for a 2.5-hour lesson for our son, and there was essentially no real instruction. It felt more like ski daycare run by a group of teenage camp counselors than an actual lesson. To make matters worse, during the 2.5-hour lesson there was a 30-minute snack break -- which is a huge chunk of time when you're paying that much. It felt like a complete waste of both time and money. At least our son, who is an intermediate skier, got a couple of runs in. However, our friend's daughter was sent to the bunny slope, where she was basically just pushed down the hill by teenagers wearing sneakers. I don't understand how you're supposed to teach someone to ski if you're not even on skis yourself. Very disappointing experience, especially for the price.

They require a lift ticket even if a kid only does lessons. Fine. What's not fine is they never told us about the less expensive bunny-hill-only ticket (about $31). Instead, about 30 kids in our group bought the full-mountain ticket (about $60) even though many only used the bunny hill, or didn't ski beyond lessons. When you're coordinating a kid-heavy group, that omission doesn't feel accidental. It feels like they kept quiet so we'd pay more. Not nice at all. They need to do better.

We took a couple more runs and called it a day. Personally not a place I would come by myself. Terrain is not at my difficulty, and for the same drive I could be at bigger mountains. But, would not deter anyone from coming and would absolutely recommend here as a place to ski! Sunday 1.4.26
