Hunter Mountain Ski Bowl, Inc. Review

My husband and daughter drove up from NC because they advertised having 6 runs open today and they had only ONE run open and it was a black diamond. They also don't refund your money when you're not able to ski on what is open. VERY limited skiing. We will not be back. Don't waste your money or your weekend!

We didnt stay here, but it Looks very nice.
Maybe next time.

I went there only to snowboard. Everything was very organized in a good order. The snow of the mountains were well groomed. Great olace to go.

Nice. Not as many ungroomed trails as in the past. Still one of the best in the area.

Awesome place, went snow tubing there twice and went to taste the country last weekend it was awesome!

Nice mountain for a day trip from NYC. East coast skiing which can often be icy. Still, they keep the slopes running even if there wasn't a lot of snow, so well with the trip.

Buy tickets in advance and skip the lines! Locker service is cash only.

Love visiting for Octoberfest! Beautiful views and something to do for everyone in the family.

The prices are reasonable, and the mountain is very family friendly. The rental line (on the weekend) is a bit chaotic, but we made it through pretty quickly. Overall, we had a lot of fun and would definitely come back!

Best terrain of any Catskills mountain. It has sick steep trails, mellow beginner trails, and everything in between. The West side also has it's own fast/detachable lift with much shorter lines than the main face, for when it gets crowded and you just want to get as much vertical as you can (and the west side has the best/steepest terrain at the mountain)

The views were incredibly beautiful. The ride up and down the mountain was alot of fun. The only problem was we had to leave. I would give 10 stars if I could. Love the Hudson Valley

Crazy slow, plan for waiting 2h in line if you need rentals.

Great mountain. Great conditions and a lot of open trails and so much fun.

The place I really learned it all for real at Hunter 1 when the small dots coming down Hunter were insane maniacs. Now I'm one of them can't ever be mad at #Huntermountain best learning center and if you can ride Hunter you can ride anywhere lol. I currently help volunteer with #ovrride we run trips up there 3 or 4 days week thru the end of March at least. If you see a guy with a green jacket with a on the back.

Stopped by to take a lift up the mountain to view the Rip Van Winkle sculptor. It was well worth the $12 lift fee and easy to get to. The scenery was great. The also offer Zip Lines that look fun, but did not have the time to do. Looks to be a great ski area as well. They also offer horse back riding and off road 4 wheelers.

Great resort. They are in tune with their summer events.

Interesting and a variety of routes. Fast lift. Friendly staff. Lots of food choices.

Great place to ski, lots of trails for every level skier

Great mountain for beginners / experienced . Worth the trip if you live in NJ or PA . Always have fresh trails and lift ticket prices are reasonable

Surprisingly enjoyable day skiing here! Well maintained runs, great food at the top and friendly staff! Would reccommend the day trip out of New York!

We love hunter mountain. Although their lift tickets and rentals are a little expensive, the trails are pretty diverse and formidable for about a 2 hour ride from Manhattan. They continue to upgrade their check in and rental systems to ensure they are quick and smooth. However, we were a little disappointed in their customer relations this passed trip. Mistakenly, one of the associates misinformed us about the ski lift closing time. But when we approached management to discuss the issue we felt as though they did not care about us or our patronage to Hunter.

Great place for Taste of Country and Mountain Jam and going skiing snowboarding

Always a fun experience and not overly expensive as far as Mountains go

The sky ride at Hunter was a lot of fun fory three kids, myself and my father. There is plenty to look at once you are at the top and room to spread out for a picnic.

The only negative, and not Hunter's fault was that I was terrified on the chairlift. Of you are afraid of heights like I am, be mindful that you might not like the ride up or down.

Great mountain!! During the week the prices aren't crazy and it's pretty empty.

Great mountain

Best terrain near NYC terrific trails .
Great vibes people are relaxed and friendly
We stayed in the kaatskill lodge so essentially got free lift tickets - darn good deal . Check out snowbirds rentals good shop.

Great Mountain, Great Conditions Today, and of course Great Chilli!!

Went here with a group of six to go skiing. Great variety of runs. The backside was really nice. Having a six person high speed lift was great for us.

Great time snow tubing with the family, was disappointed that only 1 out of the 2 trails were open and the line was very long at times.

Hunter Mountain is definitely the best option close to New York City. We sometimes do day trips to beside our long trips. Some days it's really crowded but it's always great time. Lift tickets are $80 for one day and $40 is full gear rental.

Good skiing but very crowded and not so well managed.

Great awesome fun family experience!! Must come prepared and fully warm ready for the cold! We came late and they still accommodated us! Great place!

Gorgeous drive up from the I84 west into NY but the east coast conditions are typically icier. This is an awesome intermediate/expert mtn and has a nice bar/lounge

Take the zipline! Ask for Kat as your guide, she's fantastic! You'll have an amazing experience.

Beautiful honey store by Hunter Mountain ski resort! Don't miss it!

Great local mountain, great conditions this weekend.

In winter can be a little crowded and sometimes a icy but great mountain. In summer great festivals and activities too!

I LOVE SNOWBOARDING!

The mountain is ok but the food is terrible!!! The greasy plates and trays on the top of the mountain are disgusting. I ordered French fries with bacon and cheese and the the amount of grease in the tray was more than the oil used to fry it. I'll bo brown bag next time.

Great as usual, I need to move up there to get away from the over crowded city, way to many people there

The rentals were new, the staff was great and very helpful. The slopes were maintained and felt safe. Overall a great experience.

Great view and fun for everybody. Lift chairs need new covers.

Very good solution through artificially produced snow, in good quantity and very good quality that allowed a very entertaining ski.

Good attention and classes do work well. Love the place. It is expensive but worth it

You all need to scape from the stress and go skiing at Hunter Mountain! Love it!

Great steeps when conditions are good. But it's the first real big mountain north of nyc so it's usually pretty packed on weekends with lots of novices and citidiots so beware. Better off waking up the extra 2 hours early and driving to VT / real upstate NY.

Poor service. I got the single pack for $79 and they didn't give a prior information about the lifts being overcrowded because only lower mountains were open. The lifts weren't working properly, it stopped every few minutes and it was running at 50% atmost . For the lower mountain it was one run per hour. Also, when I went back to the office after first run, they refused to refund my ticket or provide a voucher for next time.

New York's best little kept secret I love going here during the week during the season it's not too busy and they have a few pretty good runs and also a jib Park

Good montain, but more trails for advanced skiers or snowboard.

Took the sky ride up and hiked to the fire tower. Wonderful fall foliage trip!

Great place to learn to ski or to go to when you haven't skied in a long time.

East coast hardpack(aka ice!) from January through March. Make sure you have good edges on your equipment! Most holidays and weekends at this place is packed and not much fun because of long lines and crowded slopes. Probably fine if one is just going for tubing and to socialize. Resort is much better mid week and non holidays.

Beautiful view. Take the lift up for a beautiful view, hiking trails and a fairy tale character carved in stone.

An amazing experience. Chair car trip is worth trying.

I went for the taste of country music festival and it was great.... My bf enjoyed it and the employees are so nice

This place is great for those who don't ski or would like to see the mountain in the summer also!

If you re participating in the koo-koo COVID fear and scare tactics just stay away from this place. There are lots of people on the lifts and slopes with no mask, but who cares?! They re OUTSIDE! Also, take into consideration that if you have to cancel your lift ticket it ll be 8 weeks for you to see your money. We all know it doesn t really take 8 weeks to process a refund but that s the story Hunter is sticking to. I m just glad to see an outdoor facility that has enough common sense to not adopt an over-abundance of these over-reactive and over-restrictive measures all too prevalent elsewhere, pushed off as safety measures Afterall, we re outside. Enjoy all!

Nice mountain. The lodge was pretty good. Has trails for all levels from double black to green . Terrain park was average though.

Best trails in the Catskills. Also worst lift lines. Wish they would allow uphill traffic.

Not too many people during this MLK. Condition is good. Love Bell Parkway.

Despite the terrible winter so far, the snow was pretty decent. The crowds were moved efficiently so even the weekend crowds didn't slow you down too much. Hunter is one of the best mountains a day trip away from NYC

We went to a wedding on top of the mountain, very nice & the food was excellent

I love this place so much. That I m coming back to this mountain every time like today!

The snow Tubing park is great. We brought a group from 12 to 72 and everyone enjoyed themselves. There are several Lanes to go down and the magic carpet to bring you back to the top. You pay for 2 hour time slots and first come first serve for them.
