A ski resort's overall star rating displayed here is not calculated based on a simple average but takes several factors, including the age of a review, into account.
We have been taking our grandkids here for 6 years. They have had lessons and improve every year. Their race program satisfies the need to stay close to home but still have a competitive, safe experience. For a small place the variety of food is excellent. Outside and inside tables and food kiosks for eating. Plenty of places to store equipment. This year the setup with Covid is extremely safe...added food options outside, limited and safe access to bathroom areas with attendants. Outdoor heating units. Getting a ticket online was easy and didn't include a fee! Bradford is the best for kids, adults, families and all level skiers.

Nice small hill close to home, low prices, staff was very friendly, but the facebook and Instagram accounts that represent the resort are extremely racist, rude disrespectful, give resort low rating because reached out multipule times, they won't even respond or acknowledge, even though my fiance whom is white gets a response sending the exact same messages, while i was blocked by resort

Ski Bradford is a pretty cool mountain close to Boston. Not for the people that venture up to Killington or Stratton, but great lessons with really caring people. I learned to ski here as well as my kids and I'm sure my grandkids someday. Awesome set up for safe, easy learning, the learner hill is blocked off from everybody else so it never feels crowded with un skilled skiers like some of the more middle size mountains do.

Probably one of the best "mountains" i have ever skied. The glades and pow are amazing, probably 5x better than Loon or Killington
Bradford is a nice, small hill. If you are nearby and looking to get back into skiing/riding shape before heading out to one of the big mountains up north this is a great place to start. If you time your trip right it is inexpensive and not crowded. The lifts are not fast but the lines move quickly. There is an area for getting changed and eating from the food concession (normal ski slope pricing) which is on scale with the size of the hill. If you wish to lock up your valuables there are not many lockers available. The staff was friendly and efficient. We rented one set of skis which were in very good condition with no hassles. We will be going back again soon!
I thought bradford was an ok place to ski. But bradford is a little on the small side but it has a decent terrain park and has a race course. The best part of my expierience was the fried dough I bnought from the fried dough man.
I'd just ignore that first bad review posted here. Ski Bradford rocks! It may be a short mountain but it's wide! Especially with the high cost of gas, you'd be surprised at all that you get here. Last year we skiied a lot up the mountains. Who had the best snow and grooming?? Ski Bradford. What are the two best ways to improve your skiing or snowboarding? 1. Lessons -by certified PSIA Instructors here. 2. Spend more time on the snow! You can ski/board all during the week here - can't do that up north. Oh..and do you really want to wake up early EVERY Sat and Sunday to drive to the mountains and burn all of that gasoline in your car? Just drop the kids off for the day at Ski Bradford and they'll be safe and tired when you pick them up. Oh, one last thing. The terrain park is awesome and what a great group of kids they have there. I'd give Ski Bradford a definite thumbs up!!!
Bradfod ski is a terrible over-priced ski area. I've lived in Bradford all my life and trust me, It's not worth the money. $38 for an all day weekend pass gets you all of 13 trails served by 3 slow lifts. It's commonly reffered to as bradford ski hill. As for the food, I hope you like $8 fries. Trust me, if you want something cheap, family orriented and fun, spend the extra $10 at Cranmore(2 hours north) and get 40 trails and a much bigger moutain.
Conditions at Bradford continue to improve on a daily basis. We have been skiing there the past few weeks with twin boys who are seven and are on the Bradford ski team. Last sunday, they were making snow during the day. We hear the terrain park is supposed to open by the end of this week. Looking for great skiing not far from home, not a bad choice,
