Ryan Herb Review of Wisp Resort
Bought season passes because its only two hours aw...
Bought season passes because its only two hours away which is over an hour closer than Snowshoe. Visited for the first time today with the family. So disappointed.
Most employees barely speak english and have no training on basic things like where ski school meets. How can they be trained they don t speak english??? Walking in ski boots back and forth kind of sucks so not being helped which direction to go so round and round you go...dumb. The ones in the rental shop I literally had to ask them to stop standing around and get the stuff as three of them were just chatting. They were zero help with the kids getting geared up. Whats worse is on four occasions the lift operators literally were zoned out and didn t pay attention to one young kid being knocked over by the lift then stood there and watched him struggle getting back up...one lift going so fast and hitting so hard as people were getting on it almost threw them off....and twice the same girl wasn t even watching to see being asked to slow down the lift for people getting off so caused two pile ups. These people are clueless and dangerous.
Oh it gets better. Upon using the restroom after eating (awful food but thats normal for ski resorts so not a big deal) I saw a guy in cafeteria staff clothing come out of a stall and go right back into his post in the food area...thats right folks...no hand washing. Nothing like a lil Hep A danger in your fries right?! Folks this is actually a really serious health code violation. DO NOT EVER eat in a place where you know hand washing doesn t occur. Its really serious and really dangerous.
So, because we have season passes we will be back. The slopes were fine and good for our beginner children. The ski school instructor that helped my kids was first class. The Monday deal for rentals and lift is the best value in the business. We ll just make sure to bring our own food as to not be exposed to Hep A and God knows what else and we ll make sure we do the rental and lift operators jobs for them.
