Gunstock Ski Resort Reviews

We go to Gunstock winter and summer!!! Many things going on there!

Plenty to do for everyone. The Alpine Coaster was a blast, and the views from the top of the scenic lift were incredible.

Such a fun time snow tubing with family and friends! Extremely nice workers! Couldn't ask for a better day.

Great experience great views. Cheaper on weekdays when in season.

Gunstock is the best! such a great community and location, beautiful views and peaceful atmosphere. Certainly try the mountain coaster and bring your family! Enjoy!

Family friendly ski resort which is never too crowded to get a good day of skiing in.

My favorite Mt for my back Yard! So much fun and lots to do. The staff are always very helpful and polite. The tubing hill in the winter was a blast! First time and I was blown away! Rates are reasonable. I would differently take the whole family for fun times.

Great day, friendly instructors! Small delay in the chairlift.

We just hit the tubes here over a long weekend.

Careful if you are one of the first to ride. The braking mats were iced over and my friend blew right through the end and through two orange fences. Cripes, that could have been bad.

Tons of fun otherwise!

Loved it. Great conditions, fast lifts, friendly staff. Decent amount of trails for the ticket price.

Great mountain coaster ride. Great views from top of mountain too!

Had an awesome time here with my boyfriend! We participated in an aerial adventure (competing obstacles and short zip lines up in the trees) and they had plenty of other options for outdoor entertainment there as well! Also, friendly and helpful staff. Would visit again if in the area :)

This places has great food and nice food but the slopes had some ice. The view from the summit was great.

We visited this place on 11th of October. The foliage was great. You can see all the fall colors, and the weather was also comfortable, a lot of sun, and not cold. The lift ride is $20/person, kids 5 and under free. There is no any place to eat there down and up,everything is closed, maybe because of Covid, or because it is not the season. There was only a small truck selling small donuts $10 a bucket, and hot chocolate for $4, only cash. The ride can take up to 15 minutes. On the top of the mountain there are no facilities. You can only go hiking. The views are breathtaking. A lot of colorful trees and big lake Winnipesaukee.
Near the parking is a small lake and a playground.

The Zip line tour was Amazing. The view from the top is a good as it gets. I was a bit terrified
ooking at the pictures, but that's what I like. Life
Is boring if you don't push yourself every now and then. Helpful staff does everything for you and I felt safe at all times. I would suggest getting their early to get you moneys worth.

Big mountain skiing in the Lakes Region with the best view in the east! High speed quad makes it worth the stop, half way to the Whites, from MA. We retired to Gilford to have the best of both lakes and mountains! Also Gunstock boasts the longest tube park ride in the east!

Expensive, but great trails and lifts. Amazing view from the top.

So much fun... I do suggest doing this at least once a year just take a day or weekend and go hang out ride some rides take a walk.. so peaceful and the people there are really nice. Tracy was super helpful and so was the other staff. I'm gonna keep coming here every year with my family.

Pretty dissapointed in the overall experience. Website says tickets are 57 dollars. When I showed up at the booth they charged me 76 dollars for one ticket. I figure it would be worth it, however most of the fun trails were closed, and conditions were icy underneath even with 6 inches of powder earlier in the morning. If you are going to have crumby conditions and limited trails open, at least make your tickets more offordable for teenagers

Went with my best sister friend and her two sons. Great family vacation and oh we got stuck an extra day as an ice storm made the roads slippery. So kids are late to school but we are having a blast!

I went there for SoulFest to see Skillet. They were ok. The resort that is, Skillet was awesome. I wouldn't suggest swimming in the pond unless you like leeches, and algae that clings to your body.

Beautiful place for a ski resort! First time skiier and I had an amazing experience

Great place to hear live Christian music during Soulfest week.

So much to do! All the staff were very helpful and friendly.

We can't overcome how amazing that day we went to GUNSTOCK was while being in NY for a great vacation!!! From the Best places . and now I would prefer you and friends 2 go there and enjoy much!! Thanks to this special staff

This has been my home ski mountain for years. Not the largest mountain ever, but good for what it is. They offer a reasonably priced college pass which I have taken advantage of.
The staff is always friendly and sometimes they even come up to me and ask me how the runs are looking in my opinion.
Gunstock offer a bus shuttle when the lots are filled on the weekends.
Their website is updated daily with a snow report, and conditions, as well as 3 different 24/7 live web cams.
A great place to bring families.
If you're skiing alone the best option is to go early on a weekday and you'll get the whole mountain pretty much to yourself.
I haven't been there during the summer yet, but I understand they do a mountain coaster and ziplining.

Very fun place. Great use of a ski resort during Summer months. We did the zip line course...4000 foot from top of mountain and a 3800 one from middle of mountain. The staff/guide are very helpful and friendly.

Only issue is the Adventure Tree Top course demo was slow. A lot of people had to.be shown how to work the equipment etc...

All in all very fun place. Highly recommended. The mountain coaster was very very fun. Make sure you know your riddles the operators will ask you to solve a riddle as you are boarding the cars.

I learned to ski here 30 years ago, now my girls are. Great mountain for families, beginners and experts.

We only did the tubing and mountain coaster. Both super fun, the faster tubes should have been brought out sooner in my opinion. Would totally do it again.

Expensive. $80+ lift ticket on the weekend. Convenient location from Boston and Southern NH. HIGH speed quad. Trails for all abilities. Snow tubing. Amazing views of Lake Winnipesaukee.

Went tubing with friends for the two hour span from 12-2pm. It was great! It was a little bit of a rainy day but the excitement of tubing down tandem or just getting that running start to get the bottom first on the tube was fantastic! Would highly reccomend others to try it out, or even come during summer for tree top adventures.

Long lines on weekend. Good mountain for beginners, not that much ice like attitash for ex. Panorama lift is pretty fast others not that much. Can book online easily. 100$ +/- a day for lift only. Big plus for night skiing.

Super fun!! Wish we had gotten there earlier. Next time I need to call and set up zip time. We were lucky they could fit us in.
Oh and the coaster track is crazy...

Great place to ski. Food and beverages are a little priced up

Excellent family adventure park. Staff was amazingly friendly and helpful. Highly recommended if your kids love trying to defy gravity!

Good mountain and a close drive from the greater Boston area. Tickets start around $70 for adults and give you access to dozens of trails, including a few blacks. Have a nice set of high speed lifts.

Beautiful area for camping and hiking. Lots of activities to keep you entertained.

"Funstock" would be a better name for Gunstock, because it's a fun resort for the whole family, including for pre-school children and school-aged children.

Great skiing, happy staff, easy going NH skiing at its best. Mountain coaster is fun, snow tubing is great. Runs are open. Lodges are good. Covid-19 help and precautions are appropriate.

Fantastic summer afternoon for the whole family. We bought the adventure package. Good value. Children ages 3, 5, 7, 9 all had such a good time they had to be dragged away at closing time. Friendly staff working hard at providing a positive experience for all.

beautiful! attractions for everyobe who enjoys the outdoors :)

Spent several days camping here for SoulFest. Nice place!

Great service and they are always on the look to make sure no one gets hurt and its a great place to go to ski

Soulfest at Gunstock mountain resort was AMAZING! Gunstock's zip lines and tree top adventure were the icing on the cake!

Longest zip line in the US and it's way better than you can imagine

We come here for soulfest in the summer and they are great hosts for the festival.

Went there this past weekend with 6 of us for the discover passes. I understand there was a festival going on, but it was oldest daughters day off from camp, so it was the day we had. Not only was the coaster down, but it was very disorganized. There were thunderstorms passing through quite a ways out but they have a 30 miles radius that they shut everything down (that in itself was a bit extreme). No one told us or kept us informed of the continued delays. I understand a high mile radius for the ziplining and even for the tree top courses, but the smaller kids activities it is not necessary for. And if there was a storm going to pass through, there was pretty much no shelter anyways. We made the best of it, but I think we may consider alternative options in the future, especially for the cost, since the adult men, really could only do the kayaks and paddle boats so 58 is a bit steep. They did provide a small refund for the coaster being down, but was still a bit e pensive for the experience.

Great place lots of fun, Tubing and Coaster carts are a good time too

it was very disappointing it took us two HOURD to get there my son is a beginner and the small lift was closed AND DID NOT OPEN TILL 10,30 ONE THAT LEFT OPENED TWO RUNS TO THE TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN AND THEN THAT LIFT CLOSED FOR THE WHOLE DAY IT WAS OUR FIRST TIME THERE AND PROBABLY MY LAST

The zipline is amazing, super high super fast and a spectacular view. The tree top adventure is something that you must do. Be sure to bring your own gloves.

Great place to ski. Me, my wife and 5&8 year old boys. Good range of trails from greens to blacks. Hot chocolate at the panorama pub at the summit. High speed quad to the top.

A wonderful family resort. Snowboard lessons are the age-friendliest in the Northeast. RFID lift tickets are the way to go.

Summer, winter, spring or fall. Always something fun to do.

There are coupons provided to be exchanged for tubing and other activities but they do not explicitly say in the coupons or online that there is a chance of not being able to obtain those tickets due to it being sold out. We bought 5 tickets ahead of time and had 2 coupons to exchange. Because there is not an option to exchange this coupon online thus we had to wait until we got to the resort.

Had we known this earlier, we would have come to the resort at an earlier time. It has been an extremely diasspointing visit after 3 hours of driving and only 5 out of 7 of us being able to do the activity intended.

Needless to say, I am upset at the way this issue is managed here. A few suggestions that could make the experience better for your guests:

- State on the coupon that there is a chance tickets cannot be exchanged due to being sold out.
- Have an option to exchange tickets online or have an option to buy tickets online and get a refund for the coupons on site.
- Set aside a number of tickets for coupon specific exchanges.

I sincerely hope you take this into consideration in the upcoming new year.

Cheers,
Tien

We went this past Friday, the 30th. Granted we arrived a bit later than I had wished for, but everyone else I chatted with said the same things: super bad traffic getting to the parking lot; really long wait for tickets, and the shuttle. Without a trail map, you're lost, as from the main lodge, there is no big mounted trail map as a stand-alone-sign, such as I've seen at Mt Snow and other ski areas that make finding your way paramount. Once we finally got to ski, things were better, but: on the beginner's quad, they don't require you to buddy up, so essentially, 2 riders can occupy a single chair, which leads to more lengthy lines. Another observation: when I returned my friend's rentals, we went down metal stairs. Anyone that has tried skiing before knows how awkward it is to walk in heavy boots, while carrying skis and poles. If they had a flat, single floor arrangement, this would be markedly better and safe particularly for first time skiers. Final point, when the shuttle dropped us off to the lot, it was quite dark, but worse, it was icy; my son fell as he exited the bus, requiring a check-in with the ski patrol/first aid. Hes' fine, but I'm thinking some road salt or sand where the shuttle picks up and drops off is not a bad idea....

I love it I race there for my school and they have really good race tracks. I just think they need to open panorama little bit more.

Fun little mountain with enough to keep you going for most of the day. Affordable-ish; good mid-week rates, peak times are expensive.

So much to do near by. Excellent clean facilities and very friendly staff!!

Started going here with my children 10 years ago. Great place for family fun. Skiing for a skill levels. They have continued to make improvements every year.
