Winterplace Ski Resort

Awesome place to get "wet behind the ears" for learning how to ski. Learning how to ski in Japan, I was told to expect to have a high standard for other places to meet, but Winterplace did great! After my wife and three kids received their crash course lessons and some fine-tuning from me, they were crushing some greens. Gift shop is expensive due to the snow sport tax but there are enough items to match your budget. Ski-wee lessons went great for our son because Lillian was a great instructor! The military discount is solid and Tammy was one of the sweetest employees I've ever dealt with. If we can make it here next year, it wouldn't be soon enough!

We went up with the Boy Scouts for a special day. It was a great day on the mountain. We were there open to close and enjoyed the resort. Lessons were included which were fabulous! I had an intermediate ski lesson with Allen and I learned a few new things that really helped my confidence. My son had a lesson with Alexa and she was so kind and patient with him. The only 2 negative things I can say is the food is sub par for a ski resort. It was very basic, bland, and expensive. A grilled chicken or burger is literally just that, a piece of meat on a bun. Even if there were other fixings (lettuce, tomato, pickles), that would help. Winterplace could really learn some things from other ski resorts that offer meals. My husband who is a beginner snowboarder and 6'3" tall, received the wrong size board and we didn't know until very late in the day. The rental guys should have matched him up better after speaking to several experienced boarders. The trails are gorgeous though and the staff is great. The prices aren't awful either.

It's our first time visit and my kids loved the snow tubing. We had a night skiing ticket, they were not able to ski couple of times since they are looking for walklator (just like in snow tubing)to bring you up and then ski down the slope for the beginners. Then have to walk up again and that makes them tired easily. We were not able to explore the whole skiing area. But for the snow tubing, they kept on going and going until it ended our time. We loved the set up of having the skiing rental equipment open and you will just shop your size. Maybe if it's your first time to ski, probably you will be completely overwhelmed. But it's really nice since a lot of staff will assist you and the space is big too. It's rainy when we had our visit so some parts were muddy. Overall, it was a great visit!

We went tubing on Friday and it's 100 dollars for 5 people.. Great price for 2 hrs we had a blast. My wife and I.... And our kids 14 and 10 and their friend 14 really enjoyed ourselves.

Very nice resort. 4yrs and under is free. Their bunny slope area is sort of hard to get to. Should walk on foot and avoid skiers on the trail. All trails seem wide. A lift ticket goes all the way to 9pm! Who has the time? Who likes the night icy conditions? Cafeteria is spacious. Food was ok.

Fun for any age. The lodge is central to ski & tubbing activities. Clean bathrooms & facilities. Transit buses from the parking lot to front door of the lodge. Our Church group has been to Winterplace for years and have always been pleased.

We had a great tome tubing! I am thankful for Winterplace. They were patient and flexible. I had ordered tickets for the wrong day but when we got there they took care of us and made sure we all had a great time.

Winterplace is fun, who can say it isn't fun? We come here for the tubing, and it is easy to get tickets and get in and out of the resort. The tubing runs are fast, like ice sheets, and there are quite a few of them so you don't have to wait long. They don't really seem to "police" things much in terms of what you can and can't do, for example people were running trains of tubes, and they don't have someone telling you when you can go. I appreciate this, as long as things are running smoothly. The conveyor belt lift seems like it could be improved on as you have to stand on it, and people can fall over or lose their tube which then slides down like a bowling ball knocking people over (saw a lady lose her child this way, which was funny). I think people would prefer a system where they could sit in the tube on the belt, or even hook the tube up to a hook and slide up. Also, I'd like to see the tubes be in better shape, not deformed, or torn, or missing the tow rope. At least repair them better, no excuse not to have a tow rope considering you need it for the lift and the walk back. If you are charging $40 a ticket for 1 hour and 45 minutes you can buy new tubes that cost around $100 and last for years.
