Great mountain for boarding or skiing. There are lots of blue and black courses, but not many greens. I came on a long weekend and it took almost an hour to get rental gear. The snow was powdery in the beginning of the day but became icy towards the end.
Nice atmosphere...lounge is cozy and location is great to watch.
Great day! Blue skies, sunshine, and snow like butter!
Great place! I am not a skier but will go back in the summer to enjoy the all of the attractions, hiking, and visiting the surrounding areas.
Very disappointed. I haven't been there in many years. It's like a flea market with beer and food. Won't be going back. But the views are still beautiful
Love the mountain! I especially love how easy it is to get back to one place. So many other mountains get so spread out that it take so long just to get to the terrain that you want. Here, the top is almost always one lift away. Disappointed the only mogul run was the competition run. We can look at the moguls but can't skip them. Moguls on Lower k27 was closed but it wouldn't have taken much it seemed to open it up. Cool deal we got though, not sure how often they do it, but sleep-in Sunday was $39 for skiing after 12.
The staff was very helpful and the skiing is great!! Definitely will return.
Great skiing. Very friendly staff and great beginner lessons
Great east coast mountain with really good snow making capabilities.
Mountain was amazing. Went there on my first ski trip and it was a smooth ride for a beginner like myself.
Went spring skiing - facilities feel outdated and the food was not very good. The runs are short but good for practicing.
All runs were open on a warm winter day. Impressed with their snow making power.
One of the best resort within 2 hr drive from NYC. Has a good amount of green and black trails. Always crowed over the weekends
The best mountain for a day trip from NYC. They have great snowmaking and a variety of terrain although there aren't too many blue runs. Good selection of single black diamond with a few double blacks. The learning center is great as well, being separate from the main mountain, which keeps the beginners safe. It's also a great mountain to visit in the summer and fall for a hike or their Oktoberfest. Weekends can be crowded but when Hunter West is open it alleviates the lift lines. Coming on a weekday is the best!
Did the half mountain zip line. Lots of fun. Wonderful staff.
do NOT get rentals here we waited in line for nearly in hour yesterday. They care more about resanitizing the whole place every 3 min then providing good service.
We enjoyed ...Hunter mountain sky ride here. It was awesome experience with friends..my 3 year son enjoyed the ride. Also there will be October fare fest..it's good place to spend one day.. local food will be nice to test ...less options for vegetarian.
Good mountain for the East. It s obviously nothing like a Rocky Mountain skier would like but I think it s great.
Im under impression that preparing, grooming of slops went down. On March 23 after cold week there should be no solid ice, like rock surface on blue and green trails.. Watched poor guys on beginner trails struggling to stay on that icy surface. Shame.
Love Hunter! Been skiing there for 30+ years... Always have snow...
Hunter mountain is a great mountain especially for its location in upstate New York. When you are in Hunter mountain you feel like you're skiing in the Rockies you don't feel like you're skiing in the Pocono mountains. The lines are long on Sundays but good on all other days. Beware of ice on trails. Trails are groomed very well.
If you know how to ski you can have a great time here.
DO NOT come here to learn.
Convenient mountain to get to from the city but pretty crowded with long lift lines.
Honest to god nice mountain. Gets a little crowded, but has a nice trail set and a pretty big mountain for East coast in NY.
5 Stars. Best Mountain in the East for a quick day trip out of NYC;)
Thank you Andrew, Mickey and Justin . You guys were the best guides we've ever had. Thank you for making it so so fun. You guys made us bust a gutt.. lol keep being you.
Great place, beautiful area tubing, ziplines good food and drinks. Something for everyone
First. Got kids? Way kid friendly. Snow tubing anyone? I turn 51 in January, and I've decided to choose Hunter and their team to teach me to snowboard....(yeah, a young 51). Super fun at Hunter all year 'round! Google' em.....
Rental process takes more than 30 minutes. The ski lift for bunny /green slope are very long.
"Hunta" mountain! Great to be back skiing after so many years away, the place hasn't changed. Best overall conditions within easy traveling distance from the New York metro area.
Nice lift ride to the mountain top with a great view of the area. Had a two hour zip line for ( not my thing) that drew a lot of interest from others. However, you need to reserve ahead of time as weekend read full
Great place for weekends, awesome view from the mountain
Hunter Mt. Is an ever changing weather area. Rainy to snowy to sunshine warmth in 24 hours. The views are amazing.
One of my favourite ski destinations in American. You don't get the crowds of foreigners other places have. So you can feel more like a local. They spend a lot of time and money on new lifts and snow making with realistic prices for passes.
Gets a bit packed but still the best place in NY. Snow making and trail care are excellent .
Large crowd on weekends. One of the best ski resorts near NYC. Probably the best snowmaking capability in the east coast.
Horrible experience. Presidents day weekend 2018 was a nightmare. 90 min lift lines and ice covered mountain. They gave us a free ticket to come back because the bindings on my rental board broke. Too bad I won't use it because I am never going back. The people who work there are miserable and mean. It used to be friendly but now they're corporate and things really went downhill last 2 years. Horrible now!!!!
Little icy today but that was expected with all the wind.
Love coming here during the week when the mountain isn't slammed. They have GREAT snow making and a ton of fun runs. When all of the trails are open, there's something for everyone at all levels of skiing & snowboarding!
Small mountain that gets crowded easily. 3x card requires you to stand in line every day to redeem for that day's lift ticket. Hardest runs are not that challenging. Does have a small mountain's charm though. Prices are not too high. Discounts available on lift tickets
Went mid-week and it was empty. Freshly groomed, great staff, nice facility.
Went zip lining and it was a complete blast. You have to try once in your lifetime. The guys who conducted the tour were excellent and very friendly. You basically start at the top of the mountain and zig zag down. Each zip is a little different which is nice. A+++
Excellent rooms and friendly people! Can't wait to come back. Food was excellent!
Awesome place for adventure Zipline tours.. most times require an advance reservation for the tour.. when here, do not forget to do the falls trails..
Beautiful view and the chair lift is also very enjoyable
It's not really a mountain if you've been to Tahoe. That said, it's a great spot for beginners and some intermediate folks. Close to NYC, so that's a plus. If you have time, go to Killington instead.
Not crowded on weekdays and Haans was an amazing ski instructor, very patient too.
I went to ski which was awesome on Superbowl Sunday. Barely anyone there. Good snow not much ixe except on way out trail. Got cheaper lift tix on their website order. Rented skis from a seperate shop. Cost about 120 for 2.lift tickets bought in advance online. Free. Parking. Very fun.
First time snowboarding and the whole process was painful and fun. The food is okay and it wasn't too crowded when I went. There's plenty of room to ski and snowboard.
Legit Vert here! Steeper and faster than Mount Snow, and the lift lines aren't bad. Super excited for their expansion coming in 2018-2019 season!
Went for the NY Zipline and got a ride up the mountain on the chair lift. Very nice ride up. Would give it 5 stars but the operator was not too friendly; when asked if you could ride all day with one pass/ticket he looked at me like I was from another planet and said no. I think they would sell more ride tickets if you could go up a couple of times in one day. I'll stick with zip-lining they are much more friendly and it was much more fun.
Hunter Mountain is a good ski resort if you remember to keep things in context. If you're looking for a ski resort in close proximity to NYC and even for a day trip this is your best bet. They upgraded their cafeteria and offer a decent variety of eating options.
Relaxing getaway. Great pool and hot tub in a peaceful setting
It's an East Coast ski resort that's close to NYC. Good variation of trails, lots of snowmaking but also lots of ice. Very crowded on peak days. Food is expensive. Discounted tickets available at some costcos and at rei. If you went better snow, go north or west.
They weren't letting people off at the top. It's just a ski lift ride. It's a nice breezy view in the summer but nothing spectacular.
Great time skiing even though we haven't had much snow this weekend. Appreciate the modern Lodge with great and reasonably priced food options such as ramen noodles.
