Had. A. Blast. Came…read morehere with some friends and had a really great time. The trails are pretty easy and I do love the shredded mozzarella one since there's a lot of little hills to do jumps and have fun with it (no, I didn't do any of that LOL). Fell a few times getting off the ski lift. It was pretty funny and tragic at the same time since I actually grabbed my friend and pulled her down with me. I have no idea what I was thinking but def wish it wasn't so icy and a little flatter would be great haha. Other than that, it was great! It was snowing but it wasn't sticking so the trails were a bit slushy and icy. Again, nothing to do with the location just nature being nature! It was definitely fun. Not my favorite mountain or anything but it was great! The bathrooms were spacious, they even had changing rooms. The lodge itself was pretty cool! LOVED the indoor fireplace. The 2nd floor was where it was at: the bar! These people were amazing, serving away, great energy great drinks. The Jamaican Hot Chocolate was to die for (I think that's what it was called!). Basically spiked hot chocolate with coconut rum. SOOOO GOOD. Plenty of food options: chicken tenders, fries, pizza. You know, easy stuff! Outside there's a little waffle stand so you can go get your waffles before they sell out! Outside space is great too, you can chill by the seats and heat warmers or the fire pits. It's really a great space to even come and watch others ski and snowboard. Would I go back? Yes! Immediately, no! But yes I would :)

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 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!

My 2 girls had an amazing time. My girls are still a beginner/intermediate. One of the has not…read morebeen skiing for a very long time. They have several beginner friendly slopes. At the lounge area, they have a place to drink and a food gallery. They have soups, chillies, burgers, fried tenders, Mac and cheese, pizza, premade sandwiches and salad. They also have vegaritan options. Our only downfall is the distance from nyc to the ski resort. Almost 2 -2.5 hrs. Also, if you can, go on the weekdays. Prices are alot cheaper and less crowded. We would come again.

If you're looking to make it a special celebration, order the balloons! You'll get dozens of colorful balloons scattered to welcome you! Kelley in the Crooked Cabana was so friendly and thoughtful, serving us drinks and snacks poolside. We requested massages (2 weeks in advance) and a truly gifted woman welcomed us and worked our muscles, followed by a grand soak in the hot tub. The hike to the wooden gazebo was just right for us (not too hard for us); maybe next time we'll hike to the bottom of the falls. If you are looking for peaceful, quiet, romantic, serene, this is for you. We made a fire in the shared area outside, poured a glass of wine and watched while younger couples played cornhole, etc. It was our anniversary so I ordered chocolate covered strawberries, cheese tray and champagne for the room. We knew there were very few restaurant options in the area so I brought some containers of good soup to microwave and enjoy in the screened porch (our cottage had one). If you want to feel like you've gone on an exotic trip without the airports, baggage claim, and headaches, this is the place for you. We were there in late August but I bet fall is gorgeous with leaves, and earlier in the summer you could "live" at the pool with floating lounge chairs and trees to offer late afternoon shade. Oh, and the restaurant in town that's open most nights is Chappi's. My husband had the hanger steak cheesesteak and it was phenomenal, as was my burger and handcut fries.
