Little Switzerland Ski Hill Reviews

Nice staff that actually talk to you first and good food. Also the best runs around

Little kids everywhere getting in the way of everyone. Everyones rudes an even smoked out by my kids.

Good place. Pretty fun. Went here with the girl I eventually fell in love with and the environment was amazing, and I don't even like skiing!

Lil Switz, yeah it's pretty chill, got a nice big hill
Next clues written where I dropped the bomb, laying on my _______

Good for beginners and intermediate riders. Nice place since they've reopened. I liked the 4 hour ticket option. Maybe even offer a 2 hour? Nice staff.

Great family experience!!! It would be great if you could increase the WiFi for the parents in the bar area for when our kids are on the slopes. Maybe better chairs also around the fireplace???

Little switz is a great ski hill I have gone back multiple times because I enjoyed it so much the trails are nice and the terrain park is a blast.

I enjoy it here. Very friendly, Fun ,food is good. Fireplace inside. I love it, feels good after boarding.

Lock your stuff up. Skis were stolen from rack 15 feet from and in sight of front desk. Dec 28th around 515pm.
Spoke with Jen Gilmore. First she said they don't get a lot of theft, so to wait a couple days and see if someone brings them back, and that then she would look at the surveillance video.
After that didn't pan out, she states there is no point in looking at the video because it wouldn't do any good to know what the person looks like, unless she knew him. Turns out she has a name of the person she thinks took them, but won't give it up.

I want the name Jen. Do the right thing.

While filing a theft report, the officer said theft is common here. So lock your stuff up.

I liked this place. But this is crap.

Great day on the slopes. Great service at the restaurant/bar! Staff was great with accommodating race families!

Awesome place to spend your weekends on with your friends

It's so amazing and just an overall a grand place to spend time and to ride

Ok place to ski but that is about it. Very disappointing experience. Three weeks ago stopped in to reserve several high top tables for March 5. Marcell who is a friend of my boyfriends was playing in the Chalet. March 5 being my boyfriends birthday we thought what an awesome place to get together to celebrate. When we arrived they had NO high top tables reserved for our party of 12 which later turned out to be 17. When asked to talk to the manager she informed us that they didn't reserve high tops. We probably should have been told that when we originally reserved them. Regardless they didn't reserve any low tops for us either. We ordered pizzas never once were we asked how they tasted. We asked for a waitress to take drink orders. Never happened. We had to go up to the bar to get our own over priced drinks. I had to clear the tables and take the dirty plates and pizza pans back to the kitchen myself. We had an awesome time thanks to Marcell Guyton but we will definitely think twice before planning a group get together here again. Terrible service all across the board.

Visited Little Switzerland for the first time on Monday 2/25/19. The teenage girl working the lift at the front of the hill to the right of the lodge was INCREDIBLY rude. Stuck to the back of the hill after that. Runs were fun, if a little short, enjoyed the variety.

Excellent terrain park this year! Love the 3 big jumps!

great place, runs are a little icy do to warmer weather and rain last week

Great hill for families and some of the best snowmaking in the area! 10/10 would recommend to a friend!

We brought our kids,ages 11and 9, for the first time on a busy Saturday. The kids took a group lesson with Steve and Matt (so worth it for first timers). Steve and Matt were awesome! The staff is fabulous, energetic and super friendly. Every staff member from the ticket counter to the restaurant waitress had a great attitude. Even though it was busy, there was plenty of room for all the kids on the hill and the restaurant had tasty food too.
Thank you for a great first time experience for our kids. We loved every minute and we can't wait to come back.

Restaurant reopens this weekend, ski slopes reopen this coming winter. Back from the dead!

I recently took back-to-back skiing lessons. I had Cam A. as an instructor and I just have to say that he was very patient, encouraging and personable. Not only do I feel like I can get on the slopes with confidence enough to not injure myself or others unintentionally, but I am excited to take more lessons and enjoy the WI winters a great deal moreso than in previous years. Every crew member I was in contact with at Little Switzerland was not only kind, but very accommodating. A great bunch of people working there!!! It was a fantastic experience!!!

We love bringing our children back to Little Switzerland every year! They absolutely love being able to navigate the hills on their own now, and we can relax and enjoy ourselves knowing they are having a great time. The staff from beginning to end and everyone in between is friendly, helpful, and courteous. We have forgotten key clothing items in the past, and Jen and Gretchen were amazing and helped us with what we needed. Thank you to everyone behind the scenes for all your hard work to give so many people a great skiing experience so close to home!

I grabbed some of my very good friends and friend from HS....we enjoyed your phenomenal fish fry on your first night open Nov 13 2015...Got to love the "Memory Lane" to us.....We plan to make It "The place to be" for us this winter with the kids....Thankyou again for last night...Great job Staff!!!!

I went for the down hill mountain bike park and it is super fun

Little Switzerland is my favorite place to go snowboarding in SE Wisconsin. I started off as a beginner here and was really happy with the lessons, instructors, and equipment - I ve made a lot of progress thanks to this place. I love the chalet and hills too. I ve gone several times this season and each time it s always a blast and I can t wait to come back!

Came back for the homemade chicken tenders but got frozen pre made. Very disappointed, was told the kitchen wasn t able to handle the demand. Hill is horrible ruts everywhere. Is to the point it is dangerous to ski/board.

When I worked there they made me clean toilets as a dishwasher/cook! Slow service employees being rude.

I have snowboard and biked here. Great downhill MTB for wisconsin! Snow sports are good here too. It's just your little local hill but fun none the less.

Fun little hill. Friendly people. Has a few jumps, rails, and boxes. I will be going back. Purchase your tickets two days ahead of time and you get 22% off. :)

Not worth the visit. Poor management and your money is better spent elsewhere. #letpeterride

CORRECTED RATING: Little Switzerland is a wonderful ski area (understand that this is by southeastern Wisconsin standards, so don't expect huge runs) and very family friendly. I have been visiting the hill for over 20 years and always have an enjoyable experience. Their staff is knowledge and friendly. The equipment they rent is very good, and they have a terrific assortment of food and beverage items available.

I have been coming to Little Switz since I was a young girl, and I've never had a bad experience. The staff are kind and friendly, and the inside restaurant & bar are we phenomenal. We tried the Little Switz Amber beer and I was really impressed how they nailed the Midwestern brown ale. A great place with great memories, I can't wait to bring my own children someday!

good enough for beginning ski school, the food is not good. park is not the best and they need jumps. cant lap park like all parks are intended to do lifts are 2 minutes to get up and 10 seconds to get down.

Great place to ski with the family and very nice vibe

Good runs. However only one lift running the night we were there. Two for one Monday night.

Great chalet, bar and dining room. Friday night fish tacos and 3-piece cod dinner were good! Fun to watch the skiers out the big Windows.

AWESOME PLACE TO SNOWBOARD AND SKI. I WAS ABLE TO PRACTICE HERE BEFORE GOING TO COLORADO. THE LIFTS ARE GREAT WITH GREAT RUNS. LOVED IT HERE. YOU CAN ALSO GO AT NIGHT BECAUSE THEY HAVE LIGHTS :)

Lift serve mountain biking is really good for the area. Trails can get pretty challenging if you're more experienced

Great place to snowboard with friendly staff. They were open in November when it was 65 degrees out when nobody else was!

Like some other reviews have said, this may be an okay place for beginners to test out the water but doesn t provide an overall pleasant skiing/snowboarding experience. Even with the amount of snow we ve had in WI, there re icy spots all over the ski area, especially in the lift unloading areas. There were attendants but they were just sitting in their little cabins instead of grooming the snow and covering up the ice. Considering the rather cheap lift price, I really couldn t complain much about this though. Rentals, on the other hand, are way overpriced. I brought my own boots so I don t know about their boots. But the board and the bindings were pretty worn up obviously been quite a few years and not well maintained.
All in all, I wouldn t go back to this place.

Decent staff. Friendly polite snow boarders and skiers. Pleasant restaurant and bar.

We lobe coming here as a family. Friendly and helpful.

Held my second bridal shower in two years at Little Switzerland last week. Didn't even consider any other venues because they were so helpful and accommodating the first time. They came through again! Have been recommending, and will continue to recommend, Little Switzerland to everyone. Awesome venue! Awesome staff!

Southeastern Wisconsin ski hills aren't the biggest. Little Switzerland packs 18 runs and 3 parks into their hill. The staff is always helpful and friendly. There is a nice view of the front side of the hill from the Chalet bar.

Nice little ski hill. The recent renovations have made the chalet the best in the area. Great views of the runs while enjoying a beverage. My experience with the staff has been exceptional. Excellent ski programs for kids.

Community friendly, great location. Skiing snowboarding fun.

This ski resort reopened a few years ago and is fantastic. The Schmitz brothers have done a lot to improve an already great ski resort and their enthusiasm is contagious and rubbed off on all of their employees. They are focused on you having fun! Prices are reasonable and competitive for the area. The lodge has been redone and is beautiful. The upper level has a big bar area with spectacular views of the hill. They also serve food that is very tasty off the menu in a nice dining room big enough to accommodate big groups. The ski hill has added a lot of new snow guns this year so they have been able to open early and can continue to make more snow as long as it's cold enough. Their snow making ability is what really helps when Mother Nature won't cooperate. The staff in the ski rental area is very helpful whether you need skis, poles, boots, helmets or boards and there is also a nice shop to purchase items you may have forgotten for your day. The ski areas have many different skill levels so all in your group can ski regardless of skiing abilities. The terrain park also has several different skill areas so a good place to learn boarding and then improve on your skills. They have wonderful ski instructors who genuinely want to help you learn how to ski. There is also a nice beginner area for the little tots or even those of us who are learning as adults. I strongly recommend this ski resort as the place to go for a fun filled day on the slopes.

Employees are rude and spacing out the rope on the park is out of hand. Park is decent but same old features are used and barely any new features are made each season.

Had a blast my first time visiting. I'm new to snowboarding and hung out on the bunny hill the entire time, but still had a blast! The employees are friendly and helpful. It's a little spendy, so I might look into a season pass.

Went to the mountain bike park, which was a blast. Wish they did it more than once a month. Nice bar there and very friendly staff throughout.

Birthday fun with my Wonderful 25 yo son and beautiful 30-something girlfriend!!

This is a fun place. An easy drive from Milwaukee. It has a nice large bunny hill for the kids. They just installed a new magic carpet. It was was very nice for the kids.

The staff is excellent especially the manager Michelle they always make you feel welcome.

Great place for family visits. They offer equipment rentals, classes and have a nice little restaurant on-location. Also have some gear for sale. This was the only place open on an unusually warm winter day when everywhere else around is was closed. They make their own snow constantly.

Little Switzerland is a great skiing hill located in Slinger Wisconsin. The lift employees are very professional and polite. I always look forward to spending the day and then eating dinner at the ski in/ ski out restaurant. The ski patrol are also very nice if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask them. However, there are a few negatives about this hill, one would be when it gets very crowded. Lift lines can be really long and you end up spending more time on the lift than actually skiing. Recently, I have noticed a strange difference on their social media page linked to their business. It surprises me to see some of the comments that they posted to a customer, of which are very rude and simply very unprofessional. (see photo below)

I ski all over the united states and follow many ski hill closely and I have never ran into a comment where a company stated to a customer Maybe you should stick to fishing, then there d be one less jerry out here. In which they later deleted.

I give the hill a simply based off of the fact that the hill is very well maintained and most of the lift staff is very nice. The food is good upstairs and reasonably priced. But the fact that they made a very rude comment to a customer brought down the rating by 2 stars.

I go for the mountain biking in the summer. It's the best mtb park in Southeast Wisconsin.

Great place to ski if you bring your own equipment. I rented equipment from them and they made it quite difficult to get the correct equipment that you are used to using. They made me take skis that were way to short for me even though I told them what I need when I first got there. The staff outside was superb!

Good for the area, not huge but still a lot of fun and a good amount runs and the are 3 good terrain parks of increasing level that are very fun.

Had our wedding rehearsal and reception here. The staff was so nice, very accommodating, and great at communicating. They made sure everything was set up for us before we came in to decorate and helped us decorate, they even made some signs for us. The food was excellent and reasonably priced with large portions (the beef tips were amazing). They had plenty of drink choices but not an overwhelming amount. They made strawberry lemonade and sangria that was a huge hit with everyone. A large dance floor, fully stocked bar, and a quiet back room that we set up board games in. They made sure everything ran smoothly and both nights went perfectly.
If you're looking to have an event here you won't be disappointed.

All signed up for winter fun! Excited. Now just need winter.

Great little spot near Metro Milwaukee. Fun times last season there with our daughter. She thought it was hilarious to see her old man dad jump a bus in the terrain park !

Stacey, up in the bar area is incredibly rude and gossips about both customers and employees. I overheard her say that the man at the next table was fat as hell . I don't know if she had been drinking or not but that is completely unacceptable regardless.

Little Switzerland in Slinger, Wisconsin is not a resort and barely earns the distinction of being a "ski area". The hill looks to be about the same size as a landfill. The people that work here appear to be locals with no more professionalism than carnies (carnival ride operators, you know the type, dirty, unshaven and stinky). If you like to ski landfills then Little Switzerland is for you. The ski runs are tiny and if you blink while you ski them you'll have missed it. There is terrain for snowboarders but again, tiny, dirty and crowded. After being bored out of your mind you might want to have something to eat from their restaurant on the premises...only thing is bring lots of money because the food is expensive. You're better off just walking down the street to Subway. Not to mention the grossly overpriced lift ticket (40 bucks on the weekend) and 33 bucks for rental skis you're basically talking about a hundred bucks per person to ski or snowboard on what amounts to a hill the size of a landfill. You are much better off going to Cascade or Sunburst where you get a lot more for the money.

Welll run. Plenty of snow. Big comfortable bar. Good food. Family friendly.

This is a decent place for beginners but not intermediate riders. Have to wait in line for tow rope. Also they make a great competition course and take it down the following day. Food is not good enough for the price you are paying.

Glad this place is open again. For a small, local hill I am impressed by the quality. Food is good in restaurant too.

One of the best skiing resorts I have ever been to, it was much better than sunburst

The staff was non responsive/helpful and you could really tell most of them didn't want to be there. They were pretty rude telling me which side to get on the lift in a snappy manner.. I've never been there before... No smiles, no one there to ask for help finding how to get to a run. The runs are very short (you can hit all of them multiple times in less than an hour). I watched a young kid get hit by a lift behind me because the attendant wasn't paying attention..

The two big cons to this hill and why it got so poor of a review is the design of the lift/runs. You have to really really plan out your runs / figure out where you want to go into advance because they make it really hard to go down the same run you just went on.. Also the lift offloading areas are very small and NOT snowboard friendly... The best run is the black on the north side of the hill (aka it should be a green) and it's at the top of the pull rope (and it's hard to get there because it doesn't take you all the way). Then it goes into the training area and it's really hard to get back to the rest of the lifts...

For these reasons I left after spending two hours on the hill. I'm not sure If I'd go back. I'm sure it's really nice spot for local skiers or boarders who like terrain parks who don't want to drive to Wausau WI, Michigan or Chestnut.

A great place for snowboarding. However this years menu and food stinks. They changed the menu and got a new chef.

It was my first time skiing. I purchased the tickets online, they were really nice at giving instructions about how to ski and use the ski equipment

Living in AZ now but fond memories of LS. Will be visiting soon. Happy to see early snow!

My son has enjoyed his first season of snowboarding here upon joining his school s ski club. The package rate was priced well with the school, and I was so pleased that he was also given a loyalty savings card to use throughout the rest of the season. The price for the lift ticket and rentals it s such a fantastic savings for both weekdays and weekends with this card. This gave me financial relief knowing that I could utilize these savings for my son to have the opportunity to snowboard outside of the designated ski club trips.
Although, I was so disappointed this evening, as I apparently neglected to notice the asterisk below the pricing on the savings card, which stated that it excluded Friday from 4 PM to 9:30 PM. This is literally the only time throughout the week where the savings do not apply, and it just so happened to be the exact time frame that I dropped my son off with his friend for a fun Friday night of snowboarding. However, it was definitely not fun for me to get the phone call from him stating that he needed more money, as the ticket and rental prices return to their standard rates for these 5.5 hours, while the savings rate applies to all other open hours of operation. As my son had already purchased a lift ticket, there was not an option to return home and come back another day, as I would have lost even more money due to the ticket being nonrefundable. With a lump in my throat, I payed the additional cost, as he was too excited to be there for me to create a fuss. Needless to say, I was pretty bummed knowing that I payed over twice the rate than expected this evening. If he does continue to enjoy the sport at the end of the season, I will definitely avoid this by getting him the early bird season pass next year.

Little Switz is the best. Everyone there is so helpful, patient, and friendly. Their hills are the best I have skied on.

Everyone was friendly, lift lines moved quickly. Perfect for 8yr old son (snowboard) and wife learning on skis. In response to the negative reviews... Oh course it's small and its not made out to be anything its not. I agree with the owner response, the place rides bigger than it is.

Ate at the restaurant / bar upstairs. Friendly service, good food and beer, loved the fireplace.

Had a blast and can't wait to go back!

For a small(er) hill, this place has a lot of variety. The terrain parks are a nice feature, and you can watch other people get air from the lodge inside. If you're looking for a good park to practice your arials, this place is great.

This park is also well-maintained by what appears to be a parent company that also owns Nordic Mountain. They have new snow machines, constantly groom the terrain parks and regularly groom their 18 trails.

The ski area is nice, there's a nice selection of hill. I rented a helmet and snowboard boots from them, I have a board. When I was returning them the staff lost my rental sheet and I was accused multiple times by a very angry women of taking it with me. Low and behold they actually opened their eyes and found the sheet in the "already returned" section. The women did not apologize for her rudeness. Next time I'll go to Wilmot Mt to snowboard. The service is not good here.

Most park employees have no clue what they are doing and have no Jumps. Pulling passes for stupid reasons. Their park has fallen off a lot since old park manager left because the park manager this year runs his park with his ego not skill.

Great skiing and good terrain parks. Good for Wisconsin.

I love this place in the winter, but even more surprising is the stuff you can do in summer! I recently ran an Alpine Challenge here with my sister and girlfriend and they really put on a good course that was fun for us to participate in! Definitely give this place a look sometime and you won't be disappointed!
