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.
The skiing was great. Lunch costs a fortune. Hopefully they get more snow in 2024-25.

I skied down an open run today and nearly broke my neck. Just below a bump in the middle of the run was large hole, about 4 feet wide and 3 feet deep. Upon hitting the unmarked hole I was immediately ejected from both skis and landed with full force on my head. I have never in my life had such a bad fall. Both my neck and spine were injured. I was not able to ski any more runs that day. It is absolutely unacceptable for a ski resort to have no warning of danger on an open ski trail. The ski patrol at this resort do not do their job in keeping the runs safe for skiers.

Love going to Mt Snow. Absolutely best mountain in Vermont. Have visited many ski areas in Vermont and feel this is the best one. ALL they have to do is open up all the lifts every day and open up Ripcord a lot. It's never open. Double diamond that is fun. Hopefully Vail won't screw it up with high costs.

Was told Mt Snow no longer honors the military/veteran lift ticket policy stated on their website. Travis Gearhart(ticket window manager) informed the stated policy is no longer in effect and will not be honored as it is written on the website. This is strange because it has been honored the last three years I have come to my snow.

Trails are well groomed. Affordability for families. Plenty of trail options for all abilities. Will definitely vacation here again.

I've skied Mount Snow for years and consider it my go-to Vermont ski resort...especially nice that with it only being an 80-minute drive from my MA home, it's always a pleasurable day trip.
I took my young, beginner grandson to Snow yesterday (March 2022). This is his first season on the slopes and only his second experience after 2 1/2 days at Stowe back in January. He ended up in an almost-private lesson with just two other kids. The weekday ski school experience was magical. Ms. Stevie helped get him booted up and out on the flat slope in no time, and then Mr. Will took over, used more patience than any human should possess, and got the little guy on his way. After lunch, he and I skied the kiddie Green and rode the kiddie Chair for a couple of hours. Thank you, Stevie and Will, for your enthusiasm and dedication to getting little kids off on the right foot here in the Green Mountains!

I live about 70 miles from Mount Snow. It’s an easy drive for me. My teen son loves it so he and I will often come up for a day or two. I have been skiing here for many years. The crowds can he pretty big on weekends (like everywhere) but if you have the opportunity to come during the week, do not hesitate. You will be rewarded with serene, beautiful trails all to yourself. This is a bright, sunny mountain and the runs are long and glorious. I have no complaints about Mount Snow. The staff is wonderful and the vibe is def sort of “old school” Vermont skiing; less pretension and more enjoyment of the time you spend on the slopes. The prices are in line with most other larger mountains. This is a fun, relaxing place with something for everyone. Give it a try.

Nice place to take the family for intermediate runs. Bigger mountain than you expect. Able to handle decent sized holiday crowds. Close to NY/NJ and there is plenty to experience in town. Staff is super friendly but gets Zero stars on knowledge. Much of the staff doesn’t ski/understand the mountain. Better bring a trail map.

Skied several Epic locations in a southern VT ski trip and this was one of our last stops. The mountain was easily accessible and crowds were moderate due to it's easy access to neighboring states. The snow quality was not as good as Okemo (an Epic neighbor), and was more icy. The village at the base was a bit fabricated/swiss alps hokey aesthetic, but some of the vintage lodges had great architecture. The South and North faces of the mountain were very fun and definitely less traversed.
