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.
They desperately need to replace the old riblet lift , it's days are done and they only run it at half speed. Someone up there needs to learn how to make some kickers because there are very few natural hits to launch and the "park" is pretty lame. The green run is not beginner friendly, in fact there is a middle section of it that is technically blue. Almost always windy AF on top. Lockers are free which is nice and most of the staff there are pretty friendly. Cafe food is good, the bar is nice and the restrooms are always clean.

Hogadon has had its good years and it’s bad years. Unfortunately I’d consider the past couple of seasons as bad years. New lodge looks great, but under utilized. Full kitchen, yet the food is brought up pre-made and left under heat lamps. I will say that the bar is nice, terrific views and tasty drinks.
Snowpack is always an issue so I don’t hold it against Hogadon, though resorts with similar snowfall(i.e. Midwest and east coast resorts) will at least set up a terrain park loaded with features. Hogadon chooses to let great features just sit in the trees, never to be put up. This would probably attract more snowboarders which they are openly against. Bring back the Boomerang terrain park!
When the snow is good, there are good runs hidden in the trees and interesting natural features which are some redeeming qualities.

I have been skiing at Hogadon for over 35 years. It is a beautiful place, close to town and very affordable. The runs are good, with all different type of terrain. I always enjoy my visits.

Been riding this glorified sled hill for 30+ years. So grateful they decided to spend 4 million dollars on a new lodge on the top of the mountain with a bar instead of actually servicing the skiiers and snowboarders that go here by adding new grooming equipment, runs or an additional chairlift. Also no shuttle service so be sure not to drink to much. No jumps no rails runs are about 5 mins long w. a 45min wait to get to the top on the busy days. Also be sure to make way for ski patrol, and local high school ski team whom are more than happy to yell at you for breaking even a little infraction despite the fact you are only following their lines.

Tracy at Hogadon was really a great instructor. She helped me down the mountain a few years ago, and did a great job teaching my 4yr old nephew how to skii today.

Walked all over the top of the area, skied all over looking for the 3rd lift. Went in for a break, came back out again and started all over again. Never found the 3rd lift.
