Echo Mountain

This is where I learned to ski ⛷️ A huge thank you to the girl at the rental shop who managed to find the right size boots for me, otherwise I thought that because of my wide calves and high instep, skiing wasn’t for me!!! Nikki, thank you! Overall, the prices are reasonable, the skis aren’t worn out, and there’s a very nice guy who stands there and polishes them! My whole family is very happy with this complex! The guys who help people get on the conveyor belts are great, not only helping little kids but also adult snowboarders ❄️

We took a large family group snow tubing. It was a lot of fun! Everyone had a blast. First of all, it is very safe. At no time did we see anything reckless or dangerous. It is also close.to Denver and the drive is easy and very pretty. There are 5 snow lanes, with one of the five large to allow multiple tubes to tether. The staff was friendly, the people mover worked well and was much better than climbing the hill. The snow lanes generated good speed. I'd estimate 30 mph. We will go again!

We visited Echo Mountain at night for tubing and our family had an awesome experience, even though the weather was single digits. We came back the next morning for skiing. The yard sale is great to work on your technique and the Ambassadors are extremely helpful.

Robbie the ambassador was so helpful. although We were not able to have any snowboard activity due to the time cut off, robbie helped us to have wonderful pictures instead. he let us borrow a snowboard for pictures and was very accomodating.Our trip to the echo mountain wasn't so bad after all.

What a wonderful place! We had an amazing time — truly fun and relaxing. We enjoyed great food, warmed up with delicious hot cocoa, and the tubing was absolutely awesome — so much fun and positive эмоції! It’s a perfect spot to spend time with family or friends, unwind, and just enjoy the moment. We’ll definitely be coming back again!

Being from Louisiana we enjoyed this fully, we had never experienced nothing like it. We had a blast in the mini blizzard my daughter's hair froze, my youngest screamed 😱 soon as she got out the car saying its so cold 🥶 and we though we were prepared lol but once the blizzard passed we had any amazing time I busted my butt getting off the lanes my coat froze lol but we had so much fun and the staff was awesome! Walking in that much snow was a workout whew!!! Great place not to far from denver and had the best ever views you could have ever imagined! Snow tubing- for Christmas 🎄 December 2025

The team at Echo Mountain was amazing to work with, and we can’t recommend them enough. Jodi was amazing during the entire process; from booking the venue to answering all our questions and being the day of coordinator. When we had some crazy weather move in early in the day, Jodi helped keep everyone calm, kept an eye on the weather, and prepared a back up plan just in case. Thankfully the wedding went off without a hitch and we were able to do our ceremony outside among their gorgeous views. The entire Echo Mountain team was quick between transitions and so helpful and kind to all our guests. Every single guest raved about the venue and staff and said it was the best wedding they had been to. If you are thinking about booking Echo Mountain for your big day, do it!

We got married here 9/6/2025 and can't say enough wonderful things about our experience at Echo Mountain. We had about 70 people at our wedding and our dog! Highly recommend considering this as your venue! The venue coordinator, Jodi, goes above and beyond what I expected from a venue coordinator. Every time I communicated with her she eased my anxieties and never said no to any of our requests. We had been planning for over a year and a half and throughout the entire planning process she was right there to help with anything we needed. Jodi executed my vision perfectly day of without asking me a single question. I did not have to worry about a thing day of as she, Meg and her staff took care of all set up, communication with vendors, timeline management and communication with guest throughout the day. On a day I'd normally feel anxious I felt so calm with Jodi leading everything. Staff at Echo Mountain also helped us clean up after the reception. The vibes of this venue were exactly what we were looking for and proximity to Denver was great for out of town guests. The venue grounds are beautiful. Everything including ceremony, bar and lodge for reception are all right in the same area. You get that ski resort feel that we probably could not afford anywhere else. Chef Haydn's food was incredible, we received so many compliments and positive feedback about all of the food. Meg also drove us up to the top of the mountain for a lift photo which was the perfect little getaway for my new husband and I right after we got married and before we joined cocktail hour with all of our guests. This will always be one of our favorite days of all time and everyone had so much fun!

We had to best time here!! I don't know how to ski, only snowboard but the staff were so friendly and helpful on my new ski journey, love it!! Our family will be back. Maybe after brushing up on our skills a little more. This is an intermediate course. Start small. They do have a green/beginner area but it was pretty congested when we were there. Nevertheless, the staff never let it show. They were patient with all us beginners. The grill on sight was very tasty, busy but tasty. Lol Thanks guys!

Our family loved snow tubing. Eric in particular was really friendly and helpful, and he made it worth the trip.

My friends and I came here to learn to ski this weekend. My friends already had lessons booked at Winter Park but when they saw these prices, they cancelled. We rented equipment and got lift tickets for cheap! Adults (Ages 16-64): $59 - $77 per person Children (Ages 6-15): $40 - $50 per person Compared to their resorts, it's a steal. Now, let me say: THERE ARE NO LESSONS HERE. They have "Ambassadors" that will give you amazing pointers and even take pics of you. This was my first time skiing and I rocked it. These guys were all so nice and cool. I can't recommend this place enough. Shout out also to the equipment rental employees. They were super nice and informative. They gave us a great recommendation for a late lunch too. My only negative is that the ONLY slope that I could ski here is the bunny slope. The next level up was WAY too advanced for a beginner. Trust me, I tried, failed, and did the walk of shame back up the hill. If you're cool spending the day on the bunny slope, this is your spot. Now I need to find an intermediate spot so that I can learn and then come back and ski those awesome runs for a great price. I hope I'm a fast learner.

Holy cow!! I cannot say enough positive things about the staff and my experience at Echo Mountain. The word "Hospitality" would be an understatement. I've only been once but I will be returning! The bartenders and staff were so friendly and helpful - and even when electrical problems occurred , the ski-patrol and staff rose to the occasion and exuded pure professionalism. The young man with black earrings working the ticket desk 02/20/25 was incredible and went above and beyond to make sure all us guests were safe and in good spirits! I would HIGHLY recommend Echo mountain purely for the quality of people they have working there. I lost my wallet while they were dealing with a greater situation and the staff actively seeked me out to return it to me. Truly a 5-star experience! These people care and it shows! Please give your staff a big high-five! Echo mountain will forever be a place I recommend!

We visited this place in March 2023. Well worth the drive and very family and small kid friendly. We wanted to tube and play it safe. I highly recommend it. My kids loved it. There is skiing and snowboarding in other areas. They do have a deli but we didn't try it at this time.

What a beautiful mountain to explore. My husband and I went to Echo Mountain to ski and went to natural hot springs after. We had so much fun skiing here, no line, no crowd. The mountain view is epic, the sky is blue, and the cloud is big and white!! The ticket system works very fast here. The staff is friendly and works super fast. There is only one lift but there are a lot of slope options you can choose from. For beginner skiers or snowboarders, please make sure to check the ski map or directions in case gets to the blue slope by accident. we came on the weekend, and only paid $60 each for the lift ticket. It was so cheap! I would definitely come back again!

I can only review this place on the tubing zone. Since there wasnt enough snow yet, snowboarding and skiing wasn't available. 3 stars bc the staff was rude and the tubing slope was very underwhelming. They had 5, maybe 6 slide slopes. Not very steep at all. Also their food truck only had hot chocolate and candies. I also feel sorry for the people that have to clean the nasty portapotties. I just didn't have a good feel here bc I didn't feel like I was playing in the snow.

Amazing place for first timers. the bunny slope is small so you do have to wait your turn if it's at a busier time. the actual slopes are little scary and more for advanced skiers/snowboarders! super easy to get rentals and they will walk you through putting the equipment on and off ! i will say the bathrooms are not the cleanest but that is to be expected when it's snowy outside

Took the kids to meet tube with Santa and make gingerbread houses. Family had a great time. Very basic food & drinks but still enjoyed our experience.

We had a really great time. The instructors and rental people were all incredibly helpful. I only took off a star for the jerk at the top of Ski lift who asked me to move after I fell flat on my back exiting the ski lift. The guy at the bottom was nice helpful. This guy was a jerk. Could you move? Um, could you help? The first slope past the practice slope is incredibly misleading and insanely steep. But you have to go down that slope to get to the ski lift. At the top of the mountain those slopes are not nearly as steep. If you want to only do the practice slope, don't purchase a ski lift pass. Ski rentals prices were affordable at $45. As beginners, it was a great Time, minus the guy at the top of the ski lift. There's a lodge and a little bar that serves some food items that we enjoyed.

Great for small children. There are no festive lights as they have posted on their website and it's a single smaller hill. We were told there was a lodge open that our pregnant friend could hang out in but the lodge was closed when we got there. $42 per person.

Love love this place!! The bunny slope ambassador curt was amazing. I could never learn how to ski until I came here!!

There's just one chairlift, the 4-5 runs are pretty short, and you'll probably get bored here after a few hours. That said--it's worth a stop if in the area. Conditions were great, it's not crowded, and the food is actually pretty good. For the price it's hard to do better for a ski day trip from Denver.

The close independent ski areas to Denver, like Berthoud Pass and Geneva Basin, are gone. All that remains is Echo and Loveland. Echo is super close and inexpensive--how about a season pass for under $400 bucks? The other part is the drive-up. Forget about the I-70 weekend and now weekday traffic jams from the Eisenhower Tunnel to Georgetown. A simple I-70 to State Highway 74 (Evergreen Parkway) to 103 (Squaw Pass) and you are there. Echo gives the skier the old-time vibe of what Colorado ski areas used to be like. Family and people-friendly, there to help with anything that comes up. Not the corporate astronomical prices like try $50 bucks for a burger, a slide of fries, and a coke. Yep, even the food is good without forking over a paycheck. A great place for the beginner that won't break the bank either.

The staff is so responsive & helpful on Instagram. Thankful for the professional & swiftness in their customer service!

Ok so the tubing hill is fun but not out of this world. We came up for tubing and we it did 3 runs (20 minutes) cause we got bored. I did not ski BUT how close it was to Denver (1 hour), it might be worth it!

Great views here. Very shameful how the parking staff treats guests. They force you to unnecessarily park insanely close. I parked in the back today to avoid having to park 18" from the person next to me. Dummy in the Oakley goggles clearly had someone park closer than a foot on purpose just to irritate me after we exchanged words earlier. Probably won't be back over it.

HUGE thank you to Echo Mountain. HUGE thank you to Matt at the Bar. I will definitely recommend this place to my followers, thank you Echo, thank you Matt.

The employees were extremely helpful and accommodating especially jeremiah and chris who helped with our ski issues. It was a great time and would definitely recommend we will definietly be back.

We had a great time tubing at Echo Mountain last weekend! The ticket process was easy, no issues at all, just lots of fun!

Wonderful family day experience! We enjoyed tubing with the kids. Great atmosphere and the staff was phenomenal. They have rental clothing and gear, but I'm not sure of the quantity and sizes. The bar and grill were great also. Can't beat the views!

I went night tubing at Echo Mountain. I didn't even think about it, but I definitely should have taken meds to not get car sick. We were prepared for the roads with our vehicle. I don't get super car sick, but I was feeling a bit nauseous after the drive. There is this conveyer belt you ride up to the top of the slope. The car ride + first time on that made me need to sit out for a bit. Unfortunately at night, the food truck was not open and the vending machine inside was broken. So just be prepared and bring any food or drinks you may need. After sitting down for a bit and sipping water, I was fine. The tubes go super fast! Especially with adult weight! It was so much fun. I was sad the tickets were only for an hour. Two adults, no children. When we first arrived, it seemed like mostly families and not any adult couples or groups. This tubing is definitely great for adults too! Bathrooms are porter potties. They were terrible, but at night you have to use your phone for light or I guess if you have a flashlight

When it's a blizzard or light drizzle of snow echo is the place to go. I went on one lift but it was quiet yet moderate speed lift. The features and trails were okay good nothing that will blow your mind. But I would recommend that you take a friend that's starting out to ski or snowboard. Pro tip: buy your tickets in advance online

Great spot for beginners best prices of all the mountains in the Denver area had a blast with the family didn't make. It to the big slopes but next time I'll make it

I came here for the snow tubing hill as part of a group tour. We were the very first group to ever use the tubing hill so I'm sure it will get better with time. We did night tubing and it was extremely cold. I'm from Chicago and while everyone else was freezing at Loveland the weekend prior I was fine. I was one of the few in our group to tube the entire hour..most went down twice and then sat in the bus to warm up before coming out again, so dress for the elements. The lift was great, the runs were long. The only thing that would have made it better would be to have a designated person to push tubers down. I noticed a big difference when I scooter myself down and when someone pushed me down. There was a lodge area with a fireplace to warm up. They had lockers available as well. The restaurant served food and drinks. I'd come back during the day.

This place is both Amazing and beautiful with an incredible staff. From the moment we walked into this place everyone here had the best attitude and acted like we were someone important. The rental equipment is awesome the staff is friendly and the place is clean, my kids are having a great time. I will for sure come back!!! The prices are great!!! My son and daughter hit the slopes for the first time ever. This place has ambassadors on the slopes to help the kids acclimate. I have nothing but great things to say about this place. My kids want to stay an extra day, what a great place to learn.

I wish I could give this place a better review but they made that impossible. I could not attend my reservation due to Covid. I contacted them as soon as possible after finding out I was exposed, which was the morning of my reservation. I assumed like most businesses nowadays, that I would be able to get a refund with proof of a positive result. I was WRONG! I understand the normal policy of not refunding orders for missed reservations however this was not me simply missing a reservation, it was a matter of public safety. The CDC has said it can take anywhere from two to 14 days after someone is exposed to the virus to present symptoms. And that's not counting asymptomatic people. They want you to cancel 3 days prior for a refund. Was I supposed to cancel my reservation before I even had symptoms? They're so consumed with profit that they haven't updated their cancellation policy to reflect the state of the world. Oh yeah, Lindsey has absolutely no customer service skills. What company representative signs off with "If you're unable to visit, we wish you the best and hope your next trip goes smoother and is sickness free." after refusing to refund me and acknowledging that it was impossible for me to reschedule? Do better.

Below is the review I posted on Google last month. Decided to post it here as well after just learning that our ill loved one at the time reached back out to Echo Mountain on our behalf. She felt awful about the events that occurred. Well a rep from Echo Mountain responded back to her & let's just say his response is unreal. I will post the ridiculous & unprofessional email shortly. One of our family members begin to have heart problems in the early am before our tubing reservation. We were scheduled for the first slot at 9am. Below are the screenshots of my conversation with their guest services manager. They refused to issue us a refund and wouldn't allow reservations for a future visit in December 2022.

Great spot to get skeezy and sendy or to just take some lazy chillers. Night skiing on a pow night is absolutely magical.

This establishment was fantastic!! Was not overcrowded and was priced reasonably. The atmosphere was friendly and lifts were swift. The staff was friendly and helpful when needed. Thank y'all for a wonderful experience.

First time here and probably last one too. It's an ok place, customer service is bad. As soon as I stepped out my car some lady rushed to tell me that I wasn't allowed to walk in with my dog, which is understandable and I wouldn't have brought my puppy if I knew dogs weren't allowed in the property away from all the activities. No phone number in their webpage to call and ask, a misleading sign of a dog sitting on a tube at their front desk, bad propaganda in my opinion. With that being said, the kids enjoyed tubing.

Great snow and not too crowded the day I went. However, my first time ever there I got hit by a random snowboard coming down, they weren't able to catch the person. Ended up having a bad concussion and also stuck trying to get out of parking lot because I didn't have snow chains on my tire and it was a steep hill.

This is a good site mostly for beginners. They have good selection of rental skis. There is a learning hill w/ magic carpet and one lift with access to a few runs. They also have a tubing hill which is a nice break from skiing. The view from the parking lot is beautiful and the lodge is nice. But again, mostly for beginners or casual skiers.

For a very small ski area Echo Mountain delivers! The staff are very helpful and friendly. There's only one lift and several green and blue trails. We visited on a weekday and there was never a wait for the lift and plenty of snow to ski or ride on. The price was reasonable for the small area.

The rental team and the instructors on the slopes were amazing and so helpful! Michael and Mickey really stood out and provided so much feedback. Loved going here! Make sure to reserve online though.

After all my research this was the closest one to downtown Denver so we chose to come here and it being most of our first time skiiing it was also the cheaper route. For the ski lift package and rental for the day it ended up being $90. Which isn't bad but you get no training but the workers are helpful if you ask them. After a couple times on the bunny slopes i thought i was a pro so i challenge myself to go down to the ski lift and boy was i wrongi should of did some more practice on the bunny slopes. For you first timers make sure you are truly confident before you go to the ski lift bc you have to ski all the way down and it is not easy at all!! For my first time i did ok. I'm glad i did it but i probably won't ski again. I tumbled down and i didn't get hurt so let me stop while I'm ahead lol. Oh and make sure when you return your ski gears it's yours bc they do check all the numbers.

Terrible mountain if you're looking for real skiing. Bunny hill at most and "patrol" are a bunch of tyrants. The drive isn't exactly convenient either having to wind through Squaw Pass. I would recommend going just about anywhere else

It's a small mountain but packs a lot of fun. My boyfriend and I came here as beginners and loved every minute. Jamel and Michael taught us some great lessons for snowboarding. I definitely recommend this mountain if you're looking to spend the day at the mountains.

Came to Denver for training and I decided to come a few days early to try and snow board. The ambassadors at echo mountain were extremely helpful and encouraging! I was really nervous going here alone. It was an hour commute from my hotel. If it wasn't for the amazing ambassadors here at echo mountain I feel like my experience wouldn't have been as amazing as it was!

wonderful experience for first-timers! my parter and i purchased the rental package for skiing and snow boarding. the lift was quick, and the ski patrol employees were very helpful and kind. when we went, tickets were sold out, but there was plenty of space left on the mountain. only tip i have for folks visiting is to remember to bring antifreeze and chains for your tires. once the sun sets behind the mountain and the road gets icy, the uphill stretch to get out of the lot gets a little tricky. overall, fantastic experience! would definitely come again.

We had lots of fun at Echo Mountain. The view from the top is absolute beautiful. It was our first time snow tubbing and we had a blast.

Had the time of my life!!! Definitely needed this break from Reality after being on lock down at home for months now due to COVID! $32 for 1 hour not bad at all. Add $10 for each additional hour if you wish. Free parking ... can't beat that. Checking in was a breeze! The staff here all super friendly and helpful getting us down the slopes if you want to go down in groups. I had such a blast. So much fun going single or double or 4 at a time for that matter. I highly recommend this location if you are looking for something fun to do.

Yes!! And absolutely Hidden gem and it's so good! Bunny hill is easy and the staff is really nice! Also a plus for the food, I've got a burger w caramelizes onion and bacon and it was amazing! The prices are so great for chair lift and rent out the gear too! Will definitely come again on my next visit to Colorado!!

Just the best !! Rental crew was top notch !! Obviously if it's busy it's gonna take a bit but snowboarded in 4 states !! Loved it here !!

Ok - listen. The mountain is small, okay? It's not going to have the best snow conditions being this close to town (usually). There's like, 4 runs. The lift runs a little slow. But you know what? This place has character and class, and is 45 minutes from Denver. The people who work here have that warm, small town neighborly vibe and welcoming spirit. The space they have created in the Lodge and the Cafe is so charming and actually pretty relaxing. We came on a Tuesday night this (admittedly abysmal) winter we are having, for some night skiing. Now, the conditions were not great, okay? It was windy. It was icy. 2 years ago they had literally an extra 4 ft. of snow at this time of year. But they don't control climate change and so I am not going to reduce their rating because of that. I would gladly come here more often and take the short small runs over fighting traffic on a Sunday with some good snow. I would willingly take a few laps and then grab a beer and some waffle fries for $10 over paying $10 for a single beer at some of the other resorts you fought in traffic to get to. It's also a really cheap lift ticket (or pass). Right now (January 2018) you can get a Ticket to ski at night and a meal (burger and fries) for $40 - and yes, they DO have veggie burgers! We had already eaten but our friend got the burger and it looked and smelled good, and he said it was actually a really, really good burger! We got some fries - they were waffle fries. Oh yeah. They also have great beers on tap - not just Coors or Coors light, they have local breweries like Odell on tap, plus some canned beers and other beverages. =D And also, yes I would recommend this place to a beginner. I learned to ski by heading straight to the top of Copper (granted, American Flyer) and bypassing any kind of bunny hill altogether. Because you don't learn anything on bunny hills. This mountain is just steep enough and just long enough and wide enough for you to keep to your little lane and gain your bearings and learn how to control your speed and turn. No pain no Jane. I mean gain. :) Its not that steep, but steep enough an intermediate/advanced skier can pick up some decent speed and work their turns, or jump into the trees. They are trying to gain more business and I'd say they have a great space to do something fun like a band and happy hour night, or a geeks who drink trivia night, something fun like that just close enough to town that you can attract more people and business. I hope they hit the ground running this year (after being closed last season) and are able to have many more winters! So go give them a try!

Awesome Awesomeness Awesome Awesomeness Great heart full wonder fil kind loving had a amazing food

I would give this place ZERO STARS if I could. The lack of professionalism and customer service is astounding and I am shocked they are still in business given how they treat their paying customers. They make it impossible to get in contact with them and then when you finally do they are short and unresponsive. Given these times of uncertainty and illness, you would expect more understanding and sympathy from attractions of this nature. I booked with this company during my vacation to Colorado Springs and was eagerly looking forward to it. Unfortunately, my husband became sick with COVID the night prior to our trip. I emailed them to cancel and ask for a refund for his day pass and equipment and I even offered to provide them his positive COVID test as proof of why we had to cancel. They did not care and refused to give me any type of refund. Alex and Lindsey, I recommend you both go back to management training and learn how to deal with customers! From our correspondence it seemed they would've preferred us to show up and expose other guest and staff to COVID then refund us our money! I wish I could give this place zero stars. There are better ski resorts nearby and the management is better accommodating to their guest needs and concerns. I WOULD AVOID THIS RESORT AT ALL COST!

Snow tubing at Echo Mountain was one of the most beautiful experiences with my mom and sister! The views were incredible and I don't think you get that at other snow tubing places. My sister lost her ID on one of the snow tubing hills and that was found by mama bear in charge of the whole snow tubing operation. Hats off to Mama Bear Jen! We eat some food before leaving to go back down the mountain and get back to Denver and that was yummy as well :-) you should definitely go snow tubing here and bring music and weed. Xoxo Jesse and family

We had so much fun tubing at Echo Mountain today. The ages in our group were 13-61. An hour is the perfect amount of time. There are portapotties near the tubing hill or real bathrooms down the stairs. Highly recommend for a fun afternoon!
