The ski lodge restaurant (Switchbacks) is worth the trip up the mountain side. We had a super nice server and food was great! Definitely recommend the mushroom baguette with the cashew sauce.

Socially distanced tables in the lodge For you to change into your cold weather gear. They encourage you to put your items in your vehicle or to put them in cubbies and window ledges outside to avoid spreading germs. The restaurant in the lodge is also open for sit down dining. I was very impressed with their social measures. And it was also comfortable as a guest. The previous day I had went to look where the lodge was closed.

I have been skiing here for years. I got a season pass and a two month long condo rental this year so I could ski all the time. The cons. First off I paid 1079 for the white mountain super pass. I'm supposed to get a discount in the general store in the basement of the lodge at Bretton Woods. But that depended on the employee working there. So some times I did not get a discount because she said "the white mountains super pass is not accepted here" wut?! Also I was supposed to be able to get a discounted lift ticket once per day. A very rude woman from Costa Rica would always give me a hard time when I wanted to get a discounted lift ticket and would try to make my friend pay full price. Super annoying especially when you buy this ticket so you can have the perks that are listed on the Bretton woods website. But the other employee was awesome and never gave me an issue. Another thing was the ticket scanners. I skied almost every single day from January 2 to Feb 19. Even on days where there are 30 other people on the mountain they still would Impede my entry to the lift to scan my pass. I have had over a dozen season passes at different mountains in the past 10 years and have never found pass scanners this anal retentive ever. Seriously I ride the lift 30 times in a day. Do you really need to freaking scan me in each and every time? It's funny because my friends with day passes almost never got scanned. Just myself and other season pass holders. Super strange and a waste of my precious time Weekends can be super crowded with novice skiers who flounder about like lost kids at the movie theater (like every other mountain on a weekend) The parks are lacking despite all the snow we got this year. Build bigger jumps please. None of the employees would give a straight answer when asked about the gondola not being finished. The pros. Like most ski areas it's a ghost town on week days. The glades are top notch. The grooming is fantastic. The lift operators are super friendly and personable and even though they would scan me to an obsessive point were still friendly. Awesome views of Mt washington and the presidentials. Great skiing. Theres a Chutters up top! So many glades!

Bretton woods this place is amazing. it's like the mountain is in a snow globe, I swear everytime I come here it's snowing and the trails are just simply perfect. Got to try out the new 8 person gondola today which just took this mountain to a whole new level. I would say this mountain is perfect if your a first timer or still learning how to ski or snowboarding now that doesn't mean there's not plenty for the more experienced riders.

Lots of snow

Busy weekend in the woods, snowed all day, just got better and better! Quick lift lines, happy people! Found the goods in the woods!

Happy guy listening to safety instructions waiting his turn!

I took my children here during my family vacation to Bartlett and I have to admit I was very pleasantly surprised. I have a child with special needs and I was hesitant to bring him to this excursion. My autistic stepson absolutely loves thrill rides and I knew he would love zip lining. My biggest concern was the acceptance and patience of the staff. I could not have been any more surprised than I was. I believe this establishment has been the most accepting of my stepson than any other place. They listened to my direction in how to approach and teach my stepson. They all communicated with each other to stay on the same page. They made accommodations to slow me to help him get prepared for the zip line...these people just stepped up. My mother, who has not had a lot of public event experiences with my stepson like this one, even noted how amazing the staff was with my autistic stepson. Other great parts of this day was that the equipment was well maintained, the safety precautions adhered to and the staff was just FRIENDLY! This place is obviously geared towards skiing but this summer time fun experience left a very positive lasting mark on myself and my family. I would recommend them to anyone traveling the area in the summer or winter!!!

According to America's Best & Top Ten (www.americasbestonline.net), Bretton Woods is ranked the 4th Best Ski Resort in the Eastern United States and offers the second best beginner trails in the nation. Those are some really great honors, but that really blows if you're not a n00b and/or a snowboarder... Nearly two feet of snow had graced New Hampshire in the 24 hours that had lead up to my visit at Bretton Woods and I was excited to get on the mountain and plow through all of that fresh untouched powder... I could not have been more disappointed if Ed McMahon was knocking on my front door and punking me! It was like Houdini decided to run all over the mountain and perform his extraordinary vanishing acts on all of the snow that had just dropped... The runs were groomed to the packed powder base - "WTF!" - I screamed to myself, why would you do that!!! I wanted to tie a rope around my neck and jump off the chair lift as I thought to myself, "I slept in Baltimore/Washington International Airport overnight for this $*#%???" I was ready to quit in the first hour but discovered "The Woods" of Bretton and found myself in the depths of fresh pow nestled among the trees of New Hampshire. The wooded runs were epic! I was going insade with giddiness to be playing in the pow and running through the trees... Simply amazing!!! As I broke for lunch, I stared at the mountain, ruminating on the remarkable runs I had just conquered, turned to my friends and said, "This was worth spending the night in an airport for..."

Came up to Bretton Woods on a mid-March weekend. The winter this year blew, so half the trails were closed. Still from what we had available, the variety was good. I won't fault them on our winter. I still had a great time. I had a new pair of skis and needed the bindings mounted. I was able to have them done quickly in the repair shop for $30. I liked the variety of trails. A lot of very wide open terrain and the ones that stretched around the sides were scenic, within the trees. If you are into blues and greens, you will like it here. My husband does blacks but wasn't too impressed with what was left open. The mountain wasn't as high as we thought. They are very wide with a 1500 vertical. That is fine with me, though if you want more ski time, nearby Cannon has less acreage but a 2180 vertical. The food in the restaurant was really tasty and not too pricey for a ski lodge. Everyone we came across was very nice all over the mountain. There is a lot of outdoor sitting space to eat and hang out while watching others come down. The scenery is beautiful. You are surrounded by snow capped mountains in all directions. I hope to go back next year and catch them with all the trails open.

Mixed bag here.. Usually the grooming is good Usually the staff is friendly They do not offer great food choices and the food prices are the highest around Has become way too crowded Wish there were more choices for food/beverage/coffee/lodging in the area besides Omni stuff

Check-in was quick and easy. One thing I wasn't told, though, was that your room key is needed not only to use the elevator but also to activate the lights in your room. Thankfully, I've stayed at hotels with this feature before, or I probably would have been pretty confused. The resort is huge, so if you're bringing a lot of luggage, definitely grab a luggage cart. It'll save you from making multiple trips. I also reserved a room with what I thought would be two queen beds, but it turned out to be one queen bed and a pull-out couch. After a few nights on the pull-out mattress, my back was definitely feeling it. Another thing to know is that the in-room refrigerator doesn't have a freezer. Luckily, I brought my portable electric fridge/freezer cooler, so I just plugged it in on the balcony and kept all of our food in there. The outdoor grills are a great feature, and we cooked steaks a couple of nights. Just be aware there aren't any grilling utensils provided, so bring your own if you plan on cooking. We also had dogs staying next door that barked almost nonstop, especially whenever people walked down the hallway. It was a little annoying, but I'm a dog lover, so I wasn't going to complain. My room also felt on the smaller side. If we came back during snowboard season with all of our winter gear, I think space would be pretty tight. Now for the good... The resort is absolutely beautiful, spotless, and very well maintained. There's really no reason to leave the property. Between the winery, the upscale Italian restaurant, and the pub-style restaurant, there are plenty of great dining options. Both restaurants offer outdoor seating where you can enjoy food and drinks by the pool. The food was excellent, and the prices were very reasonable. The pools and hot tubs are outstanding honestly, they're comparable to what you'd expect at a Disney resort. There are also tons of activities for kids, including poolside movies on a projection screen, arts and crafts, ice cream events, and guided hikes. It really feels like a place where families can make lasting memories. I don't usually work out while I'm on vacation, but the fitness center here is so nice that I had to use it. It's honestly the kind of gym I'd pay a membership for. I even took one of the spin classes, which was a great experience. The only thing I didn't see was a sauna. Maybe there is one somewhere on the property and I just couldn't find it, but if there isn't, that would be a huge missed opportunity especially during the winter months after a long day on the slopes. I'll definitely be coming back, and I could honestly see myself buying a timeshare here someday. The only thing that surprised me was that no one ever asked if I wanted a tour or gave me a sales pitch. I don't know if they just aren't pushing timeshare sales as hard as other resorts, but I was expecting to at least be asked. Overall: 4.5/5 stars. A few small improvements would make this place nearly perfect, but it's an outstanding family resort and one I'd happily recommend.

I'll go back for the cocktail alone and count the views as an extra. Also, make the gondola $10 to hit the bar, you'll get a ton more patrons. Just an idea... Cheers!

Not so at the Rosebrook Lodge. Sitting atop the Bretton Woods ski resort, Rosebrook Lodge is a new, brightly lit with floor-to-ceiling glass walls, spacious with a great staff and great food. I was there on a vacation week, on a near blue-bird day, and had no trouble getting a seat at the bar. The Grilled Cheese Sandwich was SPECTACULAR. It was a buttered, grilled, fresh baguette with perfectly gooey cheddar and American cheese. The tomato soup dip was delicious and not from a can (it certainly was not the one made famous by Andy Warhol). This was an elevated grilled cheese sandwich to which all others would be compared. I want to give the Chef a big thumbs up. Rosewood also has a good selection of craft beer on tap and in bottles. It was a great lunch. Also, big props to Robert at the bar, who expertly handled the growing thirsty ski crowd. Robert was efficient, friendly, fun, and funny. I am looking forward to seeing him again for another grilled Cheese sandwich.

I came here with my Husband before we had kids and was expecting myself to have to eat in the room to keep my feral kids out of the way of the guests, but that could not have been further from the truth! Stayed at the Omni with my three kids, 5 and under, and in laws for a few nights and had an incredible experience. As soon as we arrived, everyone was incredibly friendly. Nick gave our kids a very warm welcome and handed them all super nice kids welcome bags. He was also the last person we saw when we left and he did a great job, super friendly! The resort has plenty of outdoor areas for the kids to run around and get some energy out. The indoor pool was perfect for kids. Only went up to 4 ft and there was a 1.5 ft wading area for the babies. There is a toy store on site in case you want to get the kids something. Of course the arcade was a huge hit for our kids. All of our meals were wonderful. We had the best servers. Elena, Peter, Dilek were awesome. Elena made us feel so special and treated me and my mother in law so well! Adam was super helpful and always hustlin around the covered porch area. After the kids were asleep we were able to sneak out to the Conservatory bar (beautiful views of the mountains) and Ben made delicious drinks. Overall we loved it, highly recommend for families, and we will definitely be back. Thank you Omni team!

What we experienced instead was an absolute disgrace. When we opened the curtains of our expensive suite, we were greeted not by the majestic White Mountains, but by garbage cans, dumpsters, HVAC units, and an unsightly service/utility yard. At no point during booking or check-in was it disclosed that our high-tier family suite would overlook the hotel's back-of-house trash operations. When we brought this to management's attention, expecting basic empathy and a reasonable resolution, the response was shockingly dismissive. The staff was completely unaccommodating, and the manager was entirely unempathetic and uncooperative. Rather than trying to make things right or move us to a acceptable room, the manager blatantly told us that if we didn't like our accommodations, we could always just check out. To add insult to injury, after making us feel thoroughly unvalidated and ignored, the manager offered a insulting token compensation: waiving a single night's $50 resort fee on a stay costing over $800 per night. This stay was a complete and total disappointment. The quality of the accommodations and the terrible attitude of management were completely inconsistent with Omni's reputation and nowhere near worth the price we paid. Save your money and stay somewhere that actually values its guests.

Cranmore delivered just that and more. Lots of greens and blues where I could work on my skills, try trails with escalating difficulty, and still kick back when I just want to enjoy myself and not be a ball of nerves. I also enjoyed the length and variety of their many trails I could traverse. Was happy to have more options than just a quick up and down in a straight line over a full day of skiing. Their main lift was quick and skiers were able to load efficiently. Lots to look at on the way up. The day of my last visit there were several ski competitions going on just next to the lift so it was fun to watch people competing and see spectators make the trek up to watch as well. Ski patrol were out and about and lots of staff available to check in with as needed. The lodge itself had everything I needed... free cubbies to store your stuff, bench seating to change into your boots, adequate table space both up and downstairs to grab a bite to eat, indoor and outdoor gas fireplaces to huddle by, a bar and hot foods, and best of all... a bathroom at the same level as where you can ski up to so no having to navigate stairs in clunky footwear. Drop off area for skis, quick in and out to purchase tickets, simple walk over to a very large parking area. I can't wait to return when the opportunity arises!
