Great place! This was my first time snowboarding and I was late in the season to start, so I won't have opportunities to really get better. But this place was fun and affordable. The staff was very helpful. Be warned if you're new, there is a dramatic jump from this kiddie slope to their "beginner" route. Super scary! But fun. The price is appealing so next season, I'll get better and buy a season pass to come here more often. The powder nights sounds great with my schedule.

I really enjoyed my tubing experience here with my son. The first couple rides down were so fast that I was actually quite scared that we were going to crash and he would smack his head. I then got used to it and realized it was safer than it felt. It was still insanely fast and fun though. Quite enjoyable and very close to Denver.

Additionally, the staff was good overall. I really like the lady who was in the check in booth. Very personable and treated my son and I very well.

One more note -- I was able to reschedule me tubing trip due to weather without any problems which I appreciate.

Even though the snow had been 6 inches the night before because of the warmth of the day parts were still very icy. But because it was warm I was able to tube in Just jeans and a sweatshirt. So much fun. The escalator to bring the two back up with you is such an amazing invention.

We went to echo mountain for the snowtubing. We prerecorded 2 time slots and it was well worth it. This is a great activity for children or adults. The workers were all helpful and real nice. I'd say this is must visit place if you're in Colorado!

1st time here, fun tubing Hill, facilities are lacking, restrooms are portable, there's 1 restaurant/ bar that's cute, but very small, while all of Idaho springs (currently) has indoor dining available they didn't, no fire pits or heaters for guests outdoors either. It really is a cute facility and I'd like to go back when everything is fully open, maybe even check out their 1(one) lift ski slope. 5 stars to the tubing operator and check in staff, they were friendly and in point!

As advertised, this is an intermediate level ski area. The staff was very friendly. Tubing was fun for the family. The overall vibe is that of a local hidden gem. I only wish they had a bigger bunny slope for beginners and a separate store area for merchandise.
