it was the first place i went snowboarding and id say its a great spot to learn! i picked it up pretty quick and there was plenty room to grow, great fun black runs, good terrain park! i went early in the season so not everything was open but the runs that were open were well maintained and fun! foods a little expensive for what you get but it always is, prices for rentals and ski lift passes i thought were pretty reasonable. rendezvous too and dropoff were my favorite runs!

Winter-place Ski Resort is a great place to ski. However for travelers, this ski resort is smaller than most. The reason I personally like Winter-place so much is because of the availability I have to it because It is right down the road. Also Winterplace can be big enough especially for beginners, they have a great bunny slop and instructors there as well. The beginners also have many many trails to choose from once they have learned how to ski, and if they learn how to ski East Coast conditions they can ski just about anywhere.

Had an awesome time. Great value for money. Learned a lot of new skills and made great memories. It was my first time with my new board and I started off a little wobbly but by the time I left I had really improved. The facilities are nice and the lifts are efficient. The are plenty of places to eat nearby. I will definitely be going back many times.
