Appalachian Ski Mountain

Appalachian Ski Mountain

(91 reviews)

We were ready to quit skiing forever…read more Our first attempt (at Sugar Mountain Resort) was chaotic, overcrowded, and discouraging. As beginners, we felt lost and unsupported, and by the end of that day we were convinced skiing simply wasn't for us. Then we tried Appalachian Ski Mountain -- and everything changed. From the moment we arrived, it was clear this place understands beginners. The booking process was smooth and available online. The staff were organized and welcoming. Although we had only booked one instructor online, they arranged two more so each of us could have a proper private lesson. Scott, Amelia, and Dean were phenomenal. They were calm, encouraging, and methodical. They explained the true basics - balance, stance, safe falling, snowplough (pizza) stopping, and controlled turns - step by step. They made sure we understood before moving on. In just one hour, we were skiing green runs with control and confidence. More importantly, we were smiling. Appalachian Ski Mountain didn't just teach us technique - they changed our entire perception of skiing. If you're a beginner, save yourself frustration and start here. It can make all the difference between giving up and falling in love with the sport.

App Mtn is a small resort that definitely caterers to families. They are cashless and it's kind of…read morea pain in the ass that you have to reserve everything in advance, including your arrival time. The RIFD card is used for everything. It's a nice resort and everyone is helpful & friendly. Not challenging terrain but enough if you are just trying to get a nice 1/2 day of skiing. The cafeteria is nice with good food choices. A good place for snowboarding. Three parks to choose from. Reasonable lift prices.

I grew up in the area but moved away and visit every couple years. We had not been to the outlet in…read moreabout 4 years since before the pandemic but were visiting and had a chance to shop here for the first time. It was nice to see all the jacket options, t-shirts, shorts, vests, socks, hats, shoes, etc. the staff were super nice and approachable and there are 2 changing rooms in the back right corner when you walk in. Prices are great (obviously outlet range), and they have lots of sizes. ----TL;DR---- Pros: plenty of parking, good prices, friendly staff, good selection Cons: none Bottom Line: if you need some Columbia sportswear brand gear, here's the place to shop
