The Skiers' Guide to Mountain Creek Resort

This place is nice and reasonably priced. The drinks and food were great as well. Upstairs had a nice sit down service. We thought it was great.

Crowded local mountain. Gets crowded and skied off very quickly, would not want to spend all day there.

Great for beginners, but it is super crowded and the mountain is not that big. Some areas are super icy, but I had a great time and the instructors are helpful.

This mountain is the mountain I grew up on. Ive seen it grow and flourish from when I first went 20 years ago. I will say, if you are learning or if you want to practice your park skills on the east coast this is a great mountain for that. Given its on the east coast, the snow conditions are not great. You have to be very picky with which days you choose to go, but when you do get a good day, its got nicely groomed trails, and some fun tree runs. North peak is great to get started on, learning in the bunny hills and green runs is perfect for practicing. South peak is like a full on winter skatepark. There are so many kids that live near and far that come for the terrain parks, so keep that in mind if youre going to that peak. It can get chaotic, but if you ignore the little annoying things here and there, its so much fun. Be safe out there! East coast riders are another breed haha.

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 is place is really good if you want to park ski while still having the option to bomb it down some normal hills overall place is great and I will be coming back

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.

Very family oriented fun place to ski
