Getting on snow is so easy. Mid-week days are quiet and the staff is friendly, from the parking lot to lifties. I like a nice mellow run and Rose offers so much beginner terrain, I love it.

We took advantage of Ladies Day which is every Thursday and the lift tickets were so cheap! I think we paid $65 each! The resort wasn’t packed, we didn’t have to wait for lifts and the view from the top was amazing. The powder was lovely, we were pleasantly surprised by how much we enjoyed skiing here!
Next time that we stay near Incline Village we will be sure to visit Mt Rose again for ladies day.

Really nice place to ski great ski school and not too big classes. Food mainly American sized burgers and fries etc but there is variety for all tastes. Lovely accomodation options close by to the ski lifts. Went with a big group and had plenty of space to ski. Enjoyed the ice skating nearby as well as an evening activity and some bowling

Had an absolute blast here. Good snow. Lots of terrain options and big open runs for hard charging. Wasn’t visiting on a good day for trees or powder so I withhold any opinions there. But I had a blast and it was easy to navigate and get around with parking being very easy and accommodating. Overall great experience with awesome views.

Mt. Rose might be my new favorite mountain in the Lake Tahoe area. It is much less crowded than any of the bigger mountains with the same challenging terrain. Additionally, the staff is great and the views of both Lake Tahoe and the smoky mountains were awesome!
