This was an outstanding location for a ski vacation, especially when traveling with children! We had a great experience at Smuggler's Notch and we plan to be back! We were pleased to see the pride that Smuggler's Notch takes in its mountain and its ski trails, especially in the last few weeks of the ski season!"

As a family resort, it is without peers, as far as I’m concerned. The resort facilities are nice, but low-key in the best way. Nothing is over-done, and nothing is shabby. The food at the on-hill restaurants is good, and it’s not overpriced. The activities for kids and teens at the Fun Zone and the Teen Center are nothing short of exceptional. Easily the best laser tag I’ve ever seen, plus indoor mini-golf, pool tables, ping pong, video games, and an incredible climbing wall and ninja course. Our teens were dying to go there every night! The nightly activities like Karaoke, fireworks, magicians, and carnivals are genuinely fun, as well. The prices are very reasonable throughout the resort. Our room was a one-bedroom in the base village, and it was really cool. It was not fancy, but was perfect for our needs. It had a bedroom, bathroom (with separate toilet and separate shower, making it more like 2 bathrooms), living room, kitchen, and a sleeping loft for our boys. One of the amazing and unique things about Smuggs is that you can add a bedroom for a modest price increase. Everywhere else I’ve seen DOUBLES your nightly room rate for adding another bedroom. As for the skiing, I have skied all over the West, several places in Europe, Canada, and the Southeast. Smuggs has a big-mountain feel with long trails, tons of variety, plenty of challenge, absolutely spectacular views, and lack of over-crowding. Can it compete with Alta for snow? Of course not. Can it compete with Whistler for variety and vertical? Of course not. But I don’t think any other mountain I know of can compete with Smuggs as a family skiing destination. The staff were all great, as well. The whole place— and the clientele it attracts— are good, solid, down-to-earth people that are a delight to get to know. There was plenty of snow, and as a bonus, on the last day of our late-March trip, we were rewarded with 6” of fresh, dry powder. Amazing. We loved our stay and we plan to return as soon as we can."

People were happy and friendly and I just don’t see that in every vacation spot. Your employee training is paying off because the staff just KNOWS how to interact with everyone from kids to seniors. This really impressed my family. We also very much enjoyed the Wykoff maple syrup factory, where the owner and his family delighted in talking about their process and equipment."

Stayed 03/16/2023-03/21/2023"So impressed ! This was our first visit to Smuggs and it totally exceeded our expectations - mountain was much bigger than expected and more diverse set of trails to choose from. We also loved the little village that had everything we needed, but also flexible to go off campus"

We will highly recommend to others and can’t wait to come back. Compared to other ski resorts, the chair lifts could use upgrading. However, it was pleasant to have no lines. The mountain is large enough to accommodate large numbers while not crowding up the ski paths."

We participated in most kid and adult events and Sam was a fabulous host, since taking the reins from good time Charlie. A highlight was Sams band on Thursday night! They are amazing! All ages loved it! This is our 10th year at Canadian March break so thank you!"
