Beaver Mountain has many issues that make it a frustrating place to ski. I've tried to overlook…read morethese as I've skied there from time to time over the years, but in late Dec 2024, I was harassed by a ticket checker in what turned out to be a humiliating experience. That experience has prompted this review. To begin, the lifts are all old and very slow. With only 1600 feet vertical on its biggest run and very little, if any, terrain that is actually above intermediate level, a good intermediate skier can descend from summit to base in about five minutes. The lift ride is a little more than about 10 minutes. So, three hours of "skiing" is actually two hours on the lift and one hour skiing, if you don't have to wait in line. But, if the lift lines are long, as they always are on weekends, the amount of time skiing as opposed to riding the lift and standing is even less, sometimes much less. The lifts are dangerous, especially the Beaver Face lift. There are no safety bars on the face lift or Harry's Dream lift and the safety bars on the Marge's Triple lift are not functional. Only the Little Beaver lift has a useable safety bar. The lifts are still loaded manually, often with distracted or belligerent operators. Tickets are scanned manually and lines are disorganized. Ticket checkers and lift operators are often rude to skiers and display annoyance at having to deal with them. Ticket and rental lines are long. Tickets are stamped manually, and a surcharge is added when purchased online, but still require standing in line to pick up. Parking is inadequate, especially on weekends. They advertise as family friendly, but the vibe I get is not family friendly. The attitude among employees impresses me as one of subdued aggravation at having to deal with customers. The only positive things about Beaver Mountain are the all-volunteer ski patrol and the ski school, although the latter is best suited for beginner and intermediate skiers. If you want a good ski experience close to Cache Valley, try Snowbasin. Snowbasin, a far superior resort, is only an additional 30 to 45 minutes from Logan. Snowbasin is more expensive than Beaver, but if your goal is to spend less money so you can in stand in line and put up with the aggravation of the place, then Beaver Mountain is the place for you.

First timer alert! I am more of a summer time girl, so winter recreation has not ever really been…read moremy "thing," but I've wanted to get out of my comfort zone and try new things, so I attempted snowboarding. This review is not about my snowboarding, per se. If that were the case, I would give it exactly one half of a star. But it's not Cherry peak's fault that I can't find my balance. I spent my entire day on the magic carpet. It was an easy hill with a lovely human conveyor belt that moved me and my awkward self up the hill after stumbling down it over and over again. The staff was friendly and even stopped the moving belt when I found myself with one foot stuck on the board and the other stuck on the ground off the belt. I'm sure they laughed inwardly, but they maintained professionalism in my presence. The lodge is a bit outdated, but that adds to it's charm. We rented skis for my son and the staff was helpful in sizing him and giving him a quick tutorial (lessons were offered, but he just needed a quick refresher). My one big suggestion would be to amp up the staff in the kitchen area. We waited a while for our order and found that most people bombarded the restaurant around lunch time and there were not enough cooks to handle the crowd. With no other options for food, they probably don't lose much business, but likely struggle to keep happy customers. A few extra hands would go far.

The Valentine's Day event cost 149.00 per couple. 100 couples were there. Check in was a long line nightmare with tickets. Seating was crowded-elbow to elbow. The food was inedible. from Firehouse. Mac n cheese -gluey texture bland flavor and barely warm. Chicken breast with the barest hint of some red sauce. Tough and chewy. Not even warm. The roll was just pulled out of a refrigerator and very cold. Who serves cold refrigerated dinner rolls? An out of the bag salad with a squeeze bottle of generic ranch. For dessert? A 1.5 inch X 1.5 inch piece chocolate cake. Literally no service with the food. The music afterward was ok. The talent was excellent but the sound mixer was way off. Music too loud and yet unable to hear the musicians sing or even the guitar or cello during the sets. The 3 musician groups seemed put together at the last minute. It was absolutely the worst food I have ever been asked to eat. What should have been a nice evening out was dashed by poor food and poor planning.

I just get night tickets here so this review is for that. The views are breathtaking! Sunsets are…read morebeautiful, the people here are chill, and the runs are fun! The night tickets here are from 4-9pm which still gives some daylight to snowboard down at least 5 times before it gets dark :) The only lift open at night is Sundown, but really that's all I need when there's sunsets to look at. The trails are all fun for me and I haven't gotten bored yet going down all of them multiple times. Most of the trails are wide with a few natural jumps which makes it kind of like a different trail every time. Parking is easy. We usually get here by 3:30 to be ready to go right at 4 and haven't had any issues. The road however, if it's snowing make sure you have snow tires or chains because people have slid off the road. Also, it's not crowded here during the week nights so no line to get on the lift! We actually leave around the time more people start coming soooo maybe it's more crowded after 7... Anyways, definitely recommend checking it out!

The winding road up led you along a winding creek/river depending on your view point. All the housing along this water way was built in such a way to take advantage of the water. One place it was running under the house. Not sure about tht but I guess they have a handle on it. I imagine it could be a tough drive in the winter with ice and snow.this place must really get active during the ski season as their park areas are huge. In the off season they have hiking and biking available, mini golf, outdoor music and arts events as well as mountain top dining and a kids zone Thts open year around

This resort is truly top notch. They are unique in that they offer no lodging, so most people who…read moreski/board here are locals. The benefit to that is that it is not so commercialized like many others in the area. People don't come to Snowbasin to shop, they come here to enjoy the slopes! With the exception of the lodge, the store, and a few smaller lodges with restaurants spread throughout the resort, there is nothing else to do but ski. The skiers at Snowbasin have excellent etiquette and there is plenty of space on the slopes even on the busiest days. So if the lift lines are long, know that the slopes won't be congested. I have heard that they are planning to add in a hotel with 300+ rooms in the next 5 years, so the dynamic will shift. Hopefully they continue their focus on the slopes instead of shopping. Only time will tell!

Don't come unless you want to put your beginner in danger and waste money on advanced skier…read more Also Discrimination!!! Unless you spend over $10k at ski school, don't expect any help. This was what the Director, Krista of the ski school told us. Your kids will be put in groups with other kids at very different levels, green, blue, or black, maybe all in one group. It doesn't matter. They don't assess based on levels even though they act like they do by giving the kids report cards. Your kids may be at a lower level but they will group them with kids on super high level and vice versa. If you have lower level kids, this will be very dangerous, and if you have higher level skiers, then you just spend the money, and they may not learn anything. We have been to different ski resorts in Utah and Denver, and this is the first time that they do not consider the kids levels and provided service based on how much you spent.

The staff bros take their time to explain the process, hand you a tube and you're on your way! Get your tube, take it to the lift thing. You sit in the tube and the guy hooks it up to send you on your way to the top. Many little kids and many adults. Fun for all ages!! There were two runs for the tubes, and both were fun!

In 2024 the main building they used fir operations burned down in a fire. Now the operation is run out of a portable construction trailer with a few food trucks and porto potties strewn about. The benefit to riding a mountain like this is the low cost. If you purchase tickets in advance online you can find lifts as low as $19 that includes some snacks with an f&b credit. The base elevation is low compared to an LCC resort. Slightly over 6000 ft, at base. So snow doesn't stick around long after spring. I have been here when it's snowing on the top and raining at the base. It's a fun little place to snowboard. The have a new high speed 6 pack chair on the other part of the mountain away from base operations. That is the better section of mountain with more consistent snow. Enjoy!
