Weather was horrible, conditions were rough, I broke my ankle. in the worst of times, the Wintergreen staff was professional courteous and helpful. I felt well taken care of.

I usually enjoy coming here anyway, I picked Wintergreen over other resorts that are the same distance or even a little closer. The variety of terrain and the ability to put different routes together is my favorite part.

There's even a few jumps to practice on. I didn't make it to the jumps this time, because my third run was my last run. Sucks. It's my fault, slow-speed turn, flailing around, not having warmed up properly, with non release bindings.

My only criticism is the mountain blog slope report is a little over-optimistic in my opinion, but overall I really enjoyed coming here. I'll be back when I heal.

The staff were pleasant and efficient. Parking was a non-issue throughout the area. My specific location (Laurelwood) had approximately 10Mbps down and 1.5 Mbps up consistently throughout my stay. Wintergreen and condo owners have provided accurate information for everything else.

Nice, but expensive in off season with most resort restaurants closed or limited hours. Hot tubs (3) at pool area wonderful. Efficiency room nice with king bed in loft and kitchen. Views from resort and overlooks breathtaking. Go in session or for fall.

It was hard to say whether I enjoyed it or not due to the weather. You would think there would be snow in the last week of December, but mother nature decided it wasn't to be; 70 degrees is much better, right? They did try to offer other activities in it's place, however, such as zip lining. Unfortunately, nothing here really is that great, but the slopes look like they would be fun!

The scenery that envelops this resort is breathtaking. A true testament to the beauty of nature. This review must not take into considerations such factors, however, as I'd be forced to award it 5 stars. 10 stars!
I am noting the resort itself. And as far as resorts go, it is decent. I feel the fact that there's no similar resorts nearby makes Wintergreen believe they are more important than they actually are outside of the Virginia woods. See: some of the infrastructure, services offered, etc.

Checked in to a condo unit with dirty carpet, dirty utensils with hardened food sticked to them, dirty towels in bathroom cabinet, and lots of garbage under one bed. Closet in the room was full with "stuff" and can't use to hang clothes. Didn't get house keeping the next day after we checked in. Had to call the front desk to have someone to send us some fresh towels. Also,the slopes were muddy on one of the days we skied. It felt like skiing on muddy slopes than on snow. Very disappointed with the experience.

over all I was a nice place to go. just a few issue. first off its not for new new skiers. the only hill they have for people to "learn" on is for their ski school and that is 50+ dollar extra to do. second they dont have half day tickets till after 2pm.

Visited Wintergreen Resort for a day skiing trip and had a blast. They had a decent number of runs and lifts open, and there was not wait times. Only thing we didn't like was that all of the lodge areas were seated and you couldn't bring in outside food. They had a small windless hallway with some plastic tables set up as a "brown bag" area that made you feel like a second class citizen.

Wintergreen Resort summer review for 1 bedroom con...

Wintergreen Resort summer review for 1 bedroom condo at Laurelwood Condos. First let me start by saying my wife and I have been coming to Wintergreen for some years now during the summer and have loved the rooms and the service we have gotten. This time around we got here and to room was not to our liken at all, which is a problem because of you not knowing how the room is going to look off there website(its the same photo for all the rooms). You kind off cross your fingers when you first open the door. The room we had smelled which bothering my wife and was giving her migraine headaches. So called the front desk to talk to the manger(8/10/2017) and he could have cared less how on unhappy we were with the room and our experience so fare at there resort. He did not even try to come up with any solution for us at all, beside saying sorry don't have any other rooms bye and hung up the phone. I will not be staying here ever again and would advise not staying at the Laurelwood Condos, they do not have a view of anything you minds well be staying at any condo off the mountain and the are very out dated and small. The service has been better in the past but I do not feel that they were very good this time around being in the hospitality business myself you do whatever you can for people even when have little to offer and they did nothing.

One more thing, we went to the Edge restaurant and would not advise eating there if you are a picky eater. The food was not good at all for what they charge and again it smelled of old carpet and dirty dishes.

We stayed at a condo in Three Ridges and, even though it was August (definitely not skiing season), my family loved it. It's so quiet here and there's actually quite a bit to do. Highly recommended!

Condos were great, updated with pretty much everything you need. Housekeeping included. Zip line and Tubing were great summer activities and I can only imagine they are much better during the winter. Breakfast buffet was good. Dinner buffet was not. Overall loved the place and plan to come back in the winter.

My 5 year old daughter and I love everything about the resort. She has learnt to snow ski and ice skate there. It's good quality time together as well as a learning experience. Mostly upper class people. The cost for everything is outrageous. The actual ski shop located inside the wintergreen hotel has a very snobby lady that works there. I would not suggest that anyone go to that ski supply store , unless you like being treated rudely. But all other stores are filled with nice employees.

Nice retreat in the mountains of Verginia. Beautiful golf course, large spa with big pools (indoor and outdoor) hot tubs and treatment rooms. A little ski resort in winter. Hikers can enjoy variety of hiking trails in the area with beautiful views from the view points on the top

I went skiing with my family. We took the introductory ski lesson with the Discover Skiing package that includes instruction. The instructors where knowledgeable and friendly, but there wasn't enough time for a new student to get comfortable on their skis. The rented gear was nice and worked without any issues. The slopes were well groomed too. I would recommend checking it out. If you have a new skier in your group, I recommend springing for a private lesson.

Christmas dinner buffet at The Copper Mine Restaurant at the Wintergreen Resort never disappoints. So many dishes, I couldn't try them all. The mushroom bisque was divine. This resort does a good job of manufacturing snow when mother nature doesn't cooperate and it's great for families.

What a complete disaster. I understand with Covid there are lots of issues, but this was ridiculous. We were moved to 3 rooms in 24 hours trying to get in one that worked. First one no hot water and no working heating/air unit. So spent the night hot and had to take cold shower in the morning. Second one no functioning internet and phones not working. 3rd one was an "upgrade room" but we lost our mini kitchen so had no way to heat up foods, that we brought and planned to use over the weekend, and it had a unusual odor but we were done moving at that point. Poor communication with services impacted by Covid. No one at resort Inn knew golf cart rule of having to be in by 6pm, so they scheduled me late afternoon tee times, that when I got to course I could not finish round. Front desk staff WAS very nice and the only saving grace to the weekend.

Pleasant, clean, fun environment... helpful and friendly staff. The food is surprisingly good. Good intermediate facility for snow sports. They work hard to make the slopes the best they can with snowmaking, but much is weather dependant. They are exceptionally efficient at keeping the roads clear, even in blizzards and heavy snow fall.
