Fun mountain with few lines. We caught it on a day where be snow's was sparse but the great grooming made for a awesome day carving. Ann was super helpful resolving an issue we had with online ticketing. We had a great lunch in the bar. read more

Blacktail Mountain Ski Area - Ski Resorts Near Me - Lakeside, Montana

I love Blacktail! It's much more affordable than Whitefish Mtn, and unless you're a double black diamond skier, you have plenty of single black diamonds and easier here. I'm attaching a pic of the view from Muley's restaurant-nice staff! The staff at the cafeteria on the floor below are great too. Ski lessons for the kids have been easy and convenient and they learn a lot. On one particularly cold day, they took a break at 1 hour in to buy the kids hot chocolate. Very cool. They're people who clearly love working with kids. In the lodge-There's also plenty of room for a non-skier to hang out and read by the fire, too. The drive up here is gorgeous too. I feel so lucky to be here! read more

Blacktail Mountain Ski Area - View from Muley's Restaurant - ski lift; beautiful! - Ski Resorts Near Me - Lakeside, Montana

How does this place have only one review?! This is where the locals go. Small mountain with a big community presence. Family run resort, where you will meet the owners and their family on the slopes, at your side when you crash, or sitting next to you at the end of the night enjoying a beer after the last chair. Spring skiing this year was pretty awesome. The blues and blacks are definitely easier to handle than other mountains, but the trees and off shoots are awesome. The chairs are well maintained and ran. Muley's bar is tasty, with great burgers and specials and a variety of great tasting beers. The price is right for tickets and season passes. Rentals are about $20 which is awesome. It's overall a much chiller mountain than the other local mountain and it's not corporate and not selling out! 100% Organic and homegrown read more

See all

I'm a new snowboarder this is my second year I learned how to board on this mountain and continue to do so the staff are so welcoming and friendly they helped me get my keys from my locked car. The runs are guaranteed to be groomed and won't be opened to the public unless it's safe to go on unlike snowbowl in Missoula so if it's your first time or just want to hit the new little park area def go here read more

I can't give the whole resort a five star yet, because I didn't get to ski much of it. So the five stars are for the staff. I was injured on my first run and Blacktail's Ski Patrol did an amazing job! Sedge was helpful and kind. Their whole team sat with me in the lodge, at one point or another, until my ride came to take me to the hospital for x-rays. They all really went above and beyond to care for me. read more

5 stars as far as I'm concerned! Family friendly yet plenty of challenges for the more experienced! Always a great time up here. read more

Blacktail Mountain Ski Area - Powder day at Blacktail Mt Ski Area! - Ski Resorts Near Me - Lakeside, Montana

Wow! What a great experience! We are here on vacation from California and wanted and fun day of skiing for our family. I'm an amateur skier and my daughter had her first day EVER on the slopes at Blacktail Mountain. Her instructor Trey was wonderful!! He was so kind and patient and my daughter LOVES skiing now. A first time instructor can make or break an experience for a child, and this was a fantastic experience! So thankful for Trey! Melody (the leader of the ski school) was also very nice and fun. All of the other staff at the restaurant, and ski rentals and payment office were so easy to work with. I had a fun day of skiing that didn't break the bank while my daughter was in ski school. So happy we got to experience this magical little place off the beaten path. read more

It's a great hill for beginners. The staff is nice, but unfortunately a lot of the hill was closed.

Love this place. The staff is very friendly and attentive. The bar is fun and the food is pretty good. The runs are great and it's nice for those who are NOT looking for extreme black runs. I would give it five stars if I had faster lifts. Five stars for the price point. read more

Great ski resort. Tremendous value for the money. Awesome views. Very friendly and helpful staff.

The views of the Flathead Valley, Flathead Lake and the Mission Range are unbelievable! And one of the few ski areas in North America where you start at the top, and back up...will go back time and again. read more
