Big White Reviews & Ratings

Big White is an amazing resort with tons of every type of terrain. The resort has plenty of food options and midweek is almost zero lift wait times. With steady powder days and an array of extra mountains activities to take part in.

Amazing ski resort already 4 feet of snow awesome powder and lots huge skiable area. Excited to go there this year

Wonderful time I've always visited to big white. From the snow quality, resort amenities, wonderful restaurants, and the accommodations.

The resort has tons of condo buildings for accommodations for ski trips. Most come with hot tubs for a nice relaxing dip after a day on the slopes. Really loved the fact that there were ski out condos. Lift where long when I went but cleared out quite quickly. Runs are smooth but can be a little busy at some points. Many beginner friendly runs that are amazing to learn on and some with neat little tree lines and jumps on the side for learning techniques. There are plenty of food options but they are quite pricey. Have a some nice coffee though. Overall the resort is 5 star in my opinion as they also offer tons of family activities like tubing and skating along side the main ski and boarding. Super fun place to be and would recommend.

Perfect weekday riding resort where you can crush groomers and still find fresh powder everyday . More of a family mountain than anything but lots of hidden gems

Big white is an awesome hill, it has a wide range of terrain for for a family vacation or a trip with different level skiers, its perfect. Bigwhite has a lot of beginner and intermediate runs, but there are only select areas of advance runs such as the gem lake, the falcon and the cliff. Personally the trees at the powder chair are phenomenal on a powder day and so is the tea bar. On a foggy day I would go to the Black Forest, and if you want to go fast go to the ghost and ridge. The lift lines are long but they move fast, the vast number of lifts also help with them. Overall if you are not a extreme skier and just want a enjoyable vacation with friends or family I would definitely go here.

I love snowboarding especialy at bugwhite its so fun though i dont have a snowboard i can realy use cuz im also beginer but iv got good skills past the last year.

Good resort with lots of options for all levels of skier. Good groomed runs and off piste terrain

Big white is rated one of the best resorts in Canada for a reason! Extremely family friendly, balanced mix of skiers and snowboarders, and a wonderful culture in a beautiful place. Though the slopes can be a tad busy at times its not a difficult feat to get out there and find a quiet spot to just take in the view.
The wide variety of terrain accommodates all levels of skiers. Long winding greens, nicely maintained blues and steep blacks along with some spacious but challenging tree runs will have you bringing your lunch on the lift so you dont miss out on the oppor(turnity).
The chalets are top notch and anyone who walks through the main area for the first time is bound to be taken aback by the beautiful architecture. Perfectly warm and cozy restaurants and bars to go and get the essentials, even listen to some live music after a long day of getting after it!

If you are trying to decide on a place to get some turns in with your friends this season Big White is the one place for you!

One of my favourite places to board with friends and family. Terrain that is suitable for all levels of riders and so much mountain to explore.
Great accommodations and restaurants at the resort. Night scene is also a great time.

Nice mountain. Excellent facility. Runs are nicely groomed. Beautiful views. Food is pretty good.

Awesome hill! Never felt too crowded, food in the middle of the slope was fantastic. Took snowboarding lessons there and it was a fun experience. Would love to go again

Big white is Canadas #1 family ski resort for a reason. The staff are awesome and on a good snow year it's hard to beat the Okanagan champagne powder. Super close to town only 45 minutes away and there's lots of accommodation, restaurants and a couple pubs too. The terrain off the groomers and set runs seems endless with vast tree runs with lots of untouched snow. Perfection in everyday.

Excellent resort with plenty to ski. Lift lines were never longer than 15 minutes!
Slopes were open and well groomed, but lacking a steep and challenging groomed run.
Cliff and Falcon provide some awesome free ride skiing for all levels.
The tree skiing is fantastic across the whole resort, Gem Lake has almost limitless tree lines to explore.
The Apres-Ski is good fun and Snowshoe Sams is always busy on the weekend.
Some great places to eat in the resort, with a good range of cuisines to enjoy.
Great snow, friendly people and a fun environment makes Big White a great place for anyone!

Simply the best powder I have ever skied in. Head to Big White in January and you would have to be unlucky not to experience some epic powder tree runs. My top tip is head across to Gem Lake early for some untouched snow. However this means heading back to the village on some of the slower chair lifts. Keep in mind the name Big White refers to Big White Out so expect visibility to be poor for a lot of your trip. However, that means its snowing and there are plenty of trees to hide in and take advantage of the powder!

Quick lifts up since they have a few 6 person chairs. There are many options for lodging and restaurants. A little jit out of the way, but worth the drive.

Ive skied and snowboarded at big white for 15 years and worked on the hill in the past. Having skied at many of the resorts in the BC area I can confidently say big white is the most versatile ski hill Ive skied at. It has shortcomings in the more difficult terrain because of lack of slack country and inbounds big mountain terrain however for someone visiting it would take multiple days days to ski all the terrain.

Big White is a great option for families and one of the best ski-in ski-out options in Canada. Tons of lodging options available also makes it budget friendly or fancy at one's desire. The slopes are very family friendly and progressive and there a not a whole lot of sketchy steep areas (which might be a downside if you are more on the adventurer side). The snow condition is consistently pretty good but white outs are frequent, not a big problem if you like tree skiing tho.
Apres ski is awesome with several different options to pretty much all ages. A nice well maintained ski rink and fireworks is the chery on the top for the kids.

My first time was this past January (2024) and it was amazing! Id always wanted to go and finally had the chance, and will definitely be going back again some day!

Big white is the perfect resort for anyone who loves winter sports whether it is hockey, snowshoeing, or the classics! The ski terrain itself is best in class and has terrain that can accommodate all skill levels and preferences! The tree terrain is one of the highlights especially on a foggy powder day!! Bigwhite truly is the best of the best for all things winter and family fun!
