Ive skied Silver Star for many years and is never boring. The staff is always amazing. Silver star seems to attract the friendliest clientele.
Good food at all the pubs and restaurants. And even on bad snow years you can still find good snow up there.

Silver Star is a fun resort for our family. As our kids skills develop they have been easily able to progress to more challenging terrain. The front side of Silver Star is mostly long groomers with some off piste. Then you can find some fresh tracks and no crowds over at the Alpine Meadows Chair. Just this season our kids' skills have allowed them to travel over to the backside where we enjoy much more varied terrain, bumps, trees and fast groomers.
We make sure that we visit Silver Star at least a couple times in a season!

Silver star really has it all. Family freindly, nice quaint village, tube park skating rink . Decent condos and hotels. 20 minutes from Vernon , 45 minutes from a major airport. The Bulldog has the best food !! . Front side is the family part of the mountain , some steeps but fun for everyone. Good night sking. Low elevation so not cold. Excellent snow, second only to big white. Not prone to fog as bigwhite is
The back side of the mountain is quite a bit harder , some good serious blacks and doubles
Lots of glades mountain wide.

Awesome place to ski very fast ski lifts and good blue runs. I have never been on a six seater chairlift it seemed like a gimmick at first but it really works well. The Color scheme of the village is not the best but thats really the only bad thing I could say about silver star. I had a great time skiing there. And will go back again.

Amazing resort. It has a lot to offer from beginner level all the way up to expert, which is why there are so many tournaments there. All the runs are amazing. Personally my favourite resort that I have skied.

Silver star is a quiet family friendly resort. Lots of additional activities beyond skiing to do. The hill is close to Vernon, but not a lot of apres ski dining options If staying longer term

Great place to ski. I learned as an adult and the variety of features and different terrain gave me so many opportunities to test my new skills. I was able to progress really quickly. The ride up isnt bad and theres always parking which makes me what to go more often.

Silverstar is a family friendly resort with a lot of options in terms of terrain and alternate activities for kids. The varied runs provide options for all levels and the lineups are quick to get you back up the mountain. We loved the village and ski in out options.
