Stevens Pass Mountain Resort Review

Good location, great feel, plenty of seating, fast friendly service, good food

Tends to be pretty crowded on weekends but for good reason! It's one of the best places to ski/board in Washington!

First time here, skied with a local. There was at least a foot of fresh powder, and the weather was good. I liked the variety of double black runs.

Great local skiing, a lot of room but not a lot of parking. You have to be there by 8:30 AM to make sure you can get a spot.

If I didn't have to work, I'd be up here every day.

Great local resort but way too crowded on weekends.

Pretty great place to go snowboarding or skiing. For all levels and ages. Good restaurants too. And lifts and runs.

Go during the week to avoid major crowding and parking issues.

Great mountain for hitting the slopes. The front side is pretty crowded on weekends but the backside is usually much less so. If you can get there on a weekday I highly recommend it. Barely anyone there

Really good ski area. Fun for all, even on busy days, it didn't seem too crowded and chair lift lines moved fast.

It is an OK area to go and have fun. Small parking lot makes it a challenge and prices are on services and food are quite high. OK to visit once a year. Leavenworth is a better option at least for me.

Great place to stay if you are looking mountain hut atmosphere!

Been snowboarding for 10 years this is my number one place to go

The staff at Steven's is always really helpful with our events!

Really enjoy this place. Friendly staff. Excellent terrain variety. Reasonable prices. Epic pass is worth it. Wish they would plow the parking lot a little bit more. It shouldn't be sketchier than the pass roads in my opinion.

A great mountain for snowboarding or skiing, and very reasonable.

Easy access to the pass and the resort! It is very easy to find many amenities. Primary downside is the availability of parking. The main lot fills up very quickly, followed by the second lot which is about 2 miles east of the main lot. The third and final lot, about 4 miles further east, also called the Stevens pass Nordic Center, can fill up quickly. Best bet for parking is to worker get there incredibly early or wait until 1-2 pm. Rental prices was smooth. Slopes were well maintained. The entire resort is well staffed!

The only gripe I have is there are a lot of people on weekends but there's not a lot of space off the lifts to strap in if you're a snowboarder.

Best place to snowboard/ ski in the Seattle area... When they have snow. Watch out for the avalanche control tank. It's the best!

Very nice local ski area with a wide variety of terrain. Biggest downsides are related to its popularity. On weekends lift lines get very long, and parking can be a mess.

Great variety of skiing options, also lots of choices for on-site dining. Food was superb.

Informal, middle sized ski area with some good terrain, especially in the back during the morning sun.

Stevens Pass ski resort is the closed to where I leave. Its not the best place to Snowboard/Ski but it s not bad either. In the recent years they have gone above and beyond to make the ticket as expensive as they can get away with, whether it be a seasons pass or a day pass.

Snow is good right now could be better but I'm not complaining

Incompetent ability to park cars. Arrived 8:45. It's 9:30 and I'm still waiting. Not coming back next year. Crystal will be easier

Awesome time at the bike park yesterday. Had some rain but actually helped out the trails a bit. Trails were mostly in good shape, perfect on PBR. Staff are super chill and nice and everyone riding is respectful. Great time and definitely recommend.

The new owners might be over selling tickets. The lines were quick, but today was insanely overcrowded. I've never seen the resort like this in my past 5 years.

My favorite skiing destination in WA. Lots of black diamonds.

I am a first time skier and so I had purchased the Learn in 3 guarantee program. First of all to get the reservation on weekends is really hard. You have plan weeks in advance.
The first class was fun and the instructor was kind. I could not pickup the ski lessons like the rest of the students in the class, but the instructor helped me to stay motivated. The things got really bad in the next class. As this was my second class, the instructor assumed that I had mastered the basics. When I couldn t keep up with the rest of the class she got irritated and kept yelling when I fall down and making fun of me. I got tired of her after sometime that I told her I don t want to continue and her reply was Thank you . Spoiled a good weekend for me!!

One of my favorite places to ski, sometimes some heavy snow and weekends semi-popular but a great place to go overall

Stevens Pass is very nice place to ski or snowboard. The few problems are that it's very crouded and lift prices are expensive.

Nice day today her , (October 10). Too early for skiing, but hade a good time looking around.Its so peaceful.

This resort is fantastic. The staff is super friendly, my husband and I have both commented that it must be a requirement to work there. Customer skills are superb. The instructors are also some of the nicest (or in my husband's words "the coolest") people out there. We live equidistant from Mt. Baker and Steven's but we will always choose Steven's because of their staff.

We had so much fun! The kids loved their Ski/Snowboarding classes and by the end of the three hour class they were confident enough to do a few runs on their own without instructors! Well worth the price for classes.

Decent terrain and lots of snow generally. Parking is a nightmare and it gets crowded on weekends with traffic on the drive back to Seattle.

The traffic and parking can really suck but if you carpool then you can get super close parking for free and can still sleep in a bit. Always gets a ton of snow thanks to the convergence zone and has much better terrain than Snoqualmie. Crystal is still better but Steve's is closer and the backside is still plenty of fun.

Learned to snowboard here with the learn-in-3 lessons package. BEST DEAL EVER!!! My favorite place to snowboard! ...so far.

It was the peak of summer, they were running mountain bikes down the slopes, it looked like so much fun.

Pretty disappointing after the Vale takeover. nothing really improves despite of the skyrocketing prices. another example of big corporation screwing up the locals.

I love itit is so much fun going down skyline, hogsback and daisy bieng a 10 year old

Been boarding here for years. I love this place. Unfortunately its unrealistic prices. Due to this I'll be going elsewhere more, which is a bummer.

My favorite ski slope. Problem is that getting very crowded compared

After waiting for 2 hours for parking and falling repeatedly, this marks my first and last attempt at skiing.

Albeit my bad experience, I can see why people would love it; it's quite well lit, making skiing during the day of night quite present; the staff there are super friendly, and the general crowd of people who attend there are really nice. I'm certain if I went there with some experience, is have the time of life, especially since there are slopes aimed at all experience levels; just because I had a bad experience doesn't mean everyone would have one, just make sure you come early :)

Bring your own snack/food. Skiing is all about the timing/weather. Most parking is pretty close to the mountain!

Our local favorite! Good runs, solid terrain park, night skiing, groomers. All around great small mountain.

The pass was closed do to winter weather because their was a little wind

Its a great mountain. The parking lots can fill up fast and you'll be waiting on a bus for a long time.

I love Stevens. I only wish I lived closer. I have never had a bad time here even when there is a lot of people

Went three times this season, two amazing pow days and one icy stormy day all mid week. Dynamic terrain and lots of tree areas that are super fun to snake through. Staff seemed fairly nice and helpful. Driving up/down the pass is a drag, plan for people to be driving 20+ under the speed limit if there's snow on the road. I definitely would not go on a weekend, probably crazy busy.

Big trees and nice rest area at the ski lodge. Pleasant and not too overwhelming.

I had an amazing experience learning to ski here last year. The employees were all super friendly and the place had a warm feel to it. Today was my first day of the season here and everything seems to have slid downhill super far. They got rid of the microwaves to force you to buy their impressively overpriced food, all the fires don't turn on any more, and they place just feels sort of cold and barren now. I might have to make Crystal my new season location if this is the way things are here now.

Only ski area in the state with a large night skiing area.

Pretty cool place, my only complaints would be they don't open up all the food places during the week.

Great ski resort with decent trails. Finding parking during the weekends can be a nightmare though

Awesome place just a little expensive for lift tickets

Very beautiful place
My family and I visited it several times
But this last one we desepcionamos because they no longer allow you to glide as before in the snow and therefore it looks vasio
My suggestion is that you should assign a sona to be able to continue asserving it
Otherwise the people will stop making the place

Cloudy. Good crowd. Still pow in the trees, especially from skyline to Brooks

So I've been coming here for 15 years and held a season pass for 5 years. They closed for the season amidst the hysteria about the virus. They will not be refunding season passes, even partially. The Vail phone number just hangs up on you.

They will not be getting my business next year or ever again.

Review of the Stevens Pass Bike Park, not the ski resort. It's awesome...go! There are five trails as of 2014, and I heard through the grapevine that six more trails are in the works! What they have now spans everything from an easy and wide flow-trail, to a super-gnarly DH trail and also a big-hit jump trail. Best thing to happen to Washington mountain biking since Galbraith Mountain. Tickets are cheap, lunches are good and the scenery is beautiful! Also, watch for the jets that fly over nearly every weekend on training runs!

Great place to ski/board. I'm a flatlander, from the midwest, so the biggest hill I had ever been to before here was probably half this size. I really liked the variety of runs they had. Only thing I think they could improve on is putting ropes in just for the terrain park. I didnt like how you had to ride a lift halfway up the hill to hit the terrain park at the very end. Other than that, place was amazing.

Love the mountain. Driest snow of all Seattle-area ski areas. Parking situation on weekends is dreadful. Don't expect to show up at 9:30 on Sunday and get a parking spot .

its quite overpriced, and not really worth the drive or the cost as there are not that many trials that I felt were worth it, I suggest just driving up to Whistler if you were planning on staying the night at Stevens pass.

Biking was fun but the park is closed on most days.

Friendly staff. Great runs in the morning but by noon the massive crowds destroy them. Even the groomed runs turn to moguls by the afternoon. Do not go here on a weekend.

We just stopped real quickly to freshen up. Beautiful.
