NJ got a 10 dump 2 weeks ago and boy was it fun at mountain creek. The lines were manageable and the outdoor pub and fire pit are great! They have a large locker room with bathrooms on the 1st floor entrance which is very nice and convenient. I also bought a triple play that day for a great price. Overall it was a great experience 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was my home mountain when I first got back into skiing. I skied here multiple times a week for 2 years before I began skiing at bigger resorts out West. While Creek doesn't stack up against the bigger resorts, out West or back East, it holds a special place in my heart. The best thing about the resort is definitely the terrain park. They have a decent amount of rails for progression, though they do seem to be lacking in true beginner rails a lot of the time. Outside of the park, the runs are all almost always groomed, for better or worse. A possible reason for the grooming is due to a lack of snow. I'm not sure the base is deep enough for anything more than small moguls at any time. About the snow quality, conditions are icy more often than not. Now for crowds... The weekends here can be a complete mess. Including long lines and the occasional fight. Weekdays are much better. During the day, the crowds are minimal, making for very chill laps. Weekday nights can be a bit of a mess with all the highschoolers, especially at South, where the park is. All that being said, if you're a local, Creek is definitely worth it, especially if you just go after work / school on weekdays.
