Small resort with only a few lifts and handful of runs. There are better options in the area. Would only recommend for beginners or someone that lives or works nearby. Has probably the worse condition rental skis I've ever seen.

The terrain parks are amazing- love everything they choose to build- definitely a perfect place for snowboarders, but not the most family friendly.

Pine Knob is good for beginners, but if you're looking for anything challenging this is not the resort for you. Their black runs are equivalent to a more difficult green in my opinion. They are open the most out of any resort nearby, however this just results in the most icey conditions constantly. Since they are open so much the base gets impacted tremendously.
