Happy skiiers

I'm loving all the upgrades! Great local mountain with good snow making, shuttle service, decent free parking (a relief after the shit show that is Camelback) and a cute lodge/bar/restaurant/ect. Seasons has improved dramatically and the bartenders are fabulous! High speed lifts, varied terrain and not too many people on weekdays (forget about Saturdays). I will definitely be back! Only complaint is that Chin Chin is only for members. We would have loved to have lunch and drinks there!

Haven't been here in quite some time but was able to finally get a mid week day trip in. Great mountain! Got here early so parking wasn't an issue but I remember not liking the set up being so far from the base of you come later in the morning. Mountain itself was sweet though, lots of cool terrain and the parks were well done. I would t mind coming back again mid week when it's quiet like it was today.

Here's who will help you if you want to ask about your child in ski school. No one.

The one star is for the ski school. I asked to meet my child for lunch - I waited patiently at the agreed upon time, my kid isn't anywhere to be found. The front desk help looks around the ni parent area and can't find him 3 times. Eventually I found him as he was leaving already having had lunch. I would complain in person but there is literally no one here now to complain to. Zero customer service or competence here.

Great conditions today!

Although Windham and nearby Hunter Mountain both provide good verticals (1,600 feet) relatively close to NYC, I think Windham has the slight advantage of the two mountains for these reasons: - More "top to bottom" runs. Assuming you can ski any terrain, there are many more ways down from the Windham summit. Windham also has another mountain peak (East Peak) that services an additional five trails, with a speedy lift ride right back to the top via detachable hi-speed quad lift "G." - Wider runs. Not trying to knock Hunter, but many of the runs off Hunter's summit chairlift are narrow and steep with switchbacks. Combine this with beginner skiers taking big turns, and the fact that there's only a few ways down, and you've got crowded, icy trails by mid-day. At Hunter, I usually stick to Hunter West since it's an experts only area and not as many people hit those runs. Windham has plenty of wide intermediate runs off summit lifts "A" (detachable quad) and "F" (fixed grip triple), in addition to the nice double-blacks if you head right off either of the summit chairs. - Less bottlenecking at the base. With two ways to ride from base to summit, my friends and I will often split up and ride in the Singles line, or opt for the slower fixed grip triple lift (lift F) to get to the top. Even though the ride itself might be slower, almost all the people flock to the hi-speed detachable lift (lift A), so you can pretty much ski right onto the fixed grip triple. I'd argue that the combined wait/ride time from bottom to top is actually SHORTER if you jump onto the fixed grip triple. Lastly, a quick tip, especially for intermediates: Upper/Lower Whistler and Warpath tend to crowd up towards the afternoon since they're the easiest runs to access off the summit chairlifts. If you're seeking less traveled runs and/or better, snow, take Wall Street to Lower Wolverine, Lower Wheelchair, Warm Up Park, or Lower Wipeout. All four are considered "intermediate," but since the runs that feed directly into them are all double-black (expert) runs, they tend to be less trafficked.

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 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!

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.

There were two time slots morning and afternoon. Once I got there the lines were long AF. Decided to upgrade to vip which was around 60-70 ~ dollars and I skipped the whole line. So I got charged in total almost like 90-100 dollars for 1 person for being two tickets essentially The ride was a bit scary at first the only thing that straps you in for safety is a metal bar and the cart moves occasionally with the wind and stops for a few seconds often. Scenic views are beautiful but too short for the price and hassle to get there. Total ride was like maybe 20 mins if that? Other than that wasn't much to do close by other than a little few stands for hotdogs, cider, etc.

The gondola ride up was pretty cool! Just keep in mind that you can't ride the gondola up, walk…read moredown the mountain, and then take it back up again without purchasing another ticket. The ride is fairly slow, which gives you plenty of time to enjoy the beautiful views from above. Honestly, walking down the mountain was one of my favorite parts! Make sure to wear sturdy hiking boots because some sections can get pretty steep. Luckily, the rocks provide a decent amount of grip and support for your shoes, which makes the hike down a little easier. Overall, it was a really fun experience and definitely worth doing!

Walking up the steps was difficult with my ski boots, wish I snapped a picture but the stairs were poorly shoveled. The walkway was also poorly maintained filled with sugar snow, and it had not snowed in some time. Feel bad for anyone with a disability, would make it very difficult for them and their caretaker. I jumped into the small line to get my ticket outside. Only one window was open which was odd for a holiday. Guessing a manager walked over and told a family a couple people in front of me that there were ticket windows inside too. The lady and her kid who were in front of me soon followed as the family at the ticket window were having difficulty, I followed in as well. It's a tight space to begin with and no clear structure to where the line is. Some lady came from the lodge portion of the building and cut everyone which was rude of her. When I was next in line the same lady manager started yelling at everyone in line about how the line starts outside and so on. Completely threw my vibe of the place in a negative direction. I ignored her as she kept going on and handed the ticket man my Indi Pass and a $10 bill for the $5 RFID card needed. Super quick transaction and I was on my way. Lets talk about the mountain now. I enjoyed the terrain, there was plenty of snowpack which by 10:30 started getting icy. The sun was not out so flat light conditions which made skiing their double blacks on the main face a little more challenging. But absolutely loved the difficulty of those two runs. Wanted to zoom down them but with the flat light and not the sharpest of edges I played it safe. Stayed off the greens of the skiers right, looked for some woods to play in but really didn't have much in the way of them. Took 7 runs and called it a morning. Another thing that bothered me was their idea of where chairlift cans should go when empty. Most mountains have a trash can at the top where people can discard their empties there. Just before the last pole there was a large bin where I am assuming the mountain is promoting throw your empties here. I find it to be poorly thought out as the bin was full and there was trash all over the place. One gust of wind is blowing it all over the mountain which defeats the purpose of. For what it was I enjoyed the people I rode on the lift with, exploring a new mountain, and getting another day under my belt this season.

This mountain has the absolute worst management of any ski mountain I have ever been to. My family and I first discovered this mountain last year. So last year after having visited for an early year day ski trip we made plans to stay nearby for a couple of nights and ski a couple of days. Literally, the evening before we were set to arrive they called me to inform me that the mountain would be closed the next day as they were having problems with their lifts. Obviously, we were extremely upset having paid for a non-refundable hotel stay. I explained this to them and they were completely nonplussed. They acted as if though they were doing me a favor by refunding me my tickets....because they were closing the mountain. I spoke to one of their managers and she was absolutely unsympathetic. She simply could not care less. It was incredible. That was the last time we visited that mountain for the season. Fast forward to TODAY. I thought the above was a fluke. So I booked night skiing for my son and I. For TODAY at 3PM. They literally called me at 12:45p TODAY, while we were on our way driving up to tell me that they had canceled night skiing because...."it's going to be cold". No sh$& Sherlock. It's a ski mountain. What were you people expecting??? I skied Killington about a month ago. And it was around 3 degrees when we arrived to the mountain. Guess what, they were open. But, beyond this the people at Catamount actually called me 1 hour and 15 minutes before my ski time. To. Cancel!! WTF is wrong with these people. They didn't know it was going to be cold yesterday or the day before that or days before?!!! Come the f' on?!?! Again, they were completely nonplussed. The unprofessionalism and complete insensitivity for their customers is staggering. After this, I don't think we'll ever go back. Actually, I was planning to go with a group of friends this Friday. I think we'll go to another mountain. The management of this mountain sucks. You have been warned. Update: so they refunded my tickets. But, get this. They are still charging me a "booking fee". Can you frikin believe it?!?! They canceled on ME and they are trying to charge me a booking fee!!! Again, WTF?!?!?! The management at this mountain is the ABSOLUTE WORST!!!! DO NOT GO HERE!
