I used this hotel for my wedding guests and it was a big big big mistake. First I am from 4 hours south so when I planned to come for the weekend a year out from the wedding to look at rooms I told the event manager I could only come on a weekend she says no problem. I get there and they will not let me look at a room, say I have to come back Monday but I couldn't because I was only in town for the weekend. Thankfully a cleaning lady let us pop our heads in, I should have backed out then. My whole wedding (90 guests) were from out of town so everyone needed a room but after I sent out the invites I was told that they were almost fully committed meaning my guests would have to pay 250 a night instead of 120 a night and they weren't letting them book single nights only 2 night occupancy. So that right there was annoying, I had to tell my guests to check out other hotels and air bnbs in the area even though I paid for a transportation bus to and from jiminy. I asked if I should bring up a nice frame with the shuttle times printed, rena tells me dont worry they will let all guests know. Fast forward to my rehersal dinner I asked my family who stayed there if they let them know about the times they said "nope, we even told them we r apart of the Morton levin wedding and they just looked at us and continued doing whatever they were doing" at this point I was heated. All my guest were arriving to the hotel that night and needed to know about the shuttle times. I had to call the hotel and rena, the hotel tried telling me they dont do that but after she realized how mad I was she apologized and they posted it on their TVs which they should have done from the start. DO NOT STAY HERE IF YOU ARE HANDICAP IN ANYWAY THEY DO NOT CARE. A family member was walking with a Walker, they gave them keys to the 600 building and she said I can not walk that far, i cant get up stairs that well either, they didnt care and said theres nothing we can do. they are not accommodating do not waste your time. read more

Now granted, we were lucky in that New England has been getting more snow than usual, so that made conditions at Jiminy Peak this weekend quite reasonable. So, even with the fair amount of ice that has developed since the last big storm, the conditions were totally workable, even for struggling beginners like us. I'm not sure if I would be giving 5 stars during a snowless winter (ie. all machine snow) in March when I assume it's much more icy. Anyway, we had a really fantastic time. Lots of variety in the greens made our practice much more fun. Also the rental staff were super competent. Those were the most comfortable ski boots I've ever used! I don't know if it was because they just had good quality rentals or because the guy helping me took note when I said I had wide feet, but they made the skiing much less painful. Also, I love their windmill! Green skiing! read more

Terrible experience. Ski patrol was extremely rude to me and my friend. We will not be returning.

One of our favorite mountains! Lodge area is newly renovated, modern and nice. A few decent eating and drinking establishments, nice lodges, gray kids programs. Jiminy does a great job keeping their areas with a nice natural feel - streams running through wooded areas - post-and-beam construction in some of the older buildings - base lodge area among pines, hemlocks, etc. Whereas a lot of businesses generally push environmentalism and sustainability as a "cost cutting" measure - Jiminy does the opposite. They invest heavily in renewable energy sources and show an extreme commitment to the environment. The mountian itself is great. A bit more on the "challenging" side, compared to mountains of comparable size. Jiminy had a unique toplology in that it shaped Ikind of like a "bowl" - with a ridge running over the summit. This means there are a LOT of different trails that come off the top, offering a wide variety - and they all come down to the same place, making for a mountian with a lot of varied terrain that is easy to get around. read more

We stayed in the inn (one bedroom suite) in August. The room was not super clean but the halls and stairways were gross. The stairs don't seem to be vacuumed often and had an awful stench and what appeared to be cigarette ashes sprinkled throughout. The cleaners leave the bags of trash out in the hall all day which is kind of gross. Outside of the door we used were bags of trash for 36 hours.... Yuck. The parking lot is littered with cigarette butts. This place has the potential to be the perfect family get-away but I couldn't get over feeling dirty the entire time. Also, the air conditioners are only in the bed room. So the living room never cools down. If you are planning on sleeping with the door closed to the bedroom and someone on the pullout couch the airflow won't work. read more

I'm a Wyndham time share owner, and I have never been up to Jiminy Peak. I went up during the week toward the end of the season to avoid the crowds, and it couldn't have worked out better. The mountain was great for a smaller mountain. The staff was friendly, and it wasn't over crowded during the week. There is a small village of 2 restaurants, a ski shop, and convenience store, which make it even easier to not leave the area. read more

If I could, I would give Jiminy zero stars. My son was skiing there today and went in to eat a quick snack. When he came out, his skis were stolen. He went to talk to security and they had him fill out a missing/lost ski report. I called Jiminy and asked if they had cameras, to which they said yes and no they don't really work. Turns out when I called the local police department the person who answered the phone told me the same thing happened to her last year. She advised I call the State Police. After talking with them, they said it happens a lot at Jiminy. He wasn't surprised. I would highly recommend you don't ski here. There's a good chance you'll have your stuff stolen. I've been skiing over 30 years all around the Northeast and never had anything stolen. I'm so disappointed in Jiminy, don't ski here. Ski gear isn't cheap and they obviously don't care about the security of their guests. read more

The Country Inn is a dump. If I could give zero stars I would. Dirty, outdated rooms. AC and TV both not working. Entire hall smelled terrible. Staff unapologetic. 3 complaints before they offered a different room and still no apology. 200$ for that place is an absolute ripoff. They should be ashamed of themselves. Hospitality Industry! Learn what it means. I never take the time to write reviews but had to write this one. Do yourselves a favor, save your money and stay somewhere else. read more

The hill is alright. They have one real lift, with a few others held together with zip ties throughout the mountain. They claim machine groomed granular conditions, but it's really just all ice with ice shavings in top. Pricy food and beverages, and the cost of the lift tickets for what you actually get are about $30 too high. read more

Skiing is fine. Mask wearing was NOT enforced. Many employees without masks...please set a good example! You can't have signs everywhere about masks and then not wear them yourselves. Food in the lodge was truly horrible...the veggie wrap was soggy and inedible. I could only eat half. People seemed to love the ski instructors. read more

Spent my Sat on the slopes at Jiminy Peak and it was a great time! I'm a novice and with that being said I didn't go on many of the slopes especially since it was very busy. We got there by 10am and the parking was really convenient and the shuttle was fast and efficient. The tickets were a great deal since they had a 4 people in a car = 1 free lift ticket which made the price very reasonable. Also there's a discount for timeshare owners which was nice. I think it was $46 for an 8 hour all mountain ticket. They also allow you to bring coolers to an indoor picnic area which made lunch a super cheap event--so +1 star! The trails well groomed, the lifts were running well, and the staff was friendly. Granted the weather was perfect so that made everything much enjoyable so no complaints on my part. The mountain coaster was +$6 (with a lift ticket purchase) and was really fun...seemed a bit unsafe but it was still a cool experience. Also they are a green resort and the windmills were a great site to see! Overall a good experience but I will not be rushing back. read more

Jiminy is close to Albany and I had a few buy one get one free lift tickets so I went twice this year. The first time I didn't really have an opinion and the second time I realized I really didn't like it. It's small, and I am used to small mountains but there was something about the trails that just made it seem even smaller. They were not groomed very well and I felt like, as an intermediate skier, there were not many options for trails for me. I felt like I was always going down the exact same trails, and I got bored very quickly. (My friend said the exact same thing). I didn't like the lodges, however I did like the big bon fire that is outside so you can sit and relax outside but stay warm. When my other friend gave me the option to go back for a 3rd time this winter, I decided I would rather not go skiing than go skiing at Jiminy. If you're going from Albany, just for a little more of a drive but around the same price, I like Windham mountain. I learned there and it is similar in size to Jiminy and I like it much better. read more

A group of friends & I skied here Saturday night 3/8/14. Was happily surprised to find it was Ladies' Night and saved $8 off my lift ticket! I had no idea there would be any discount on a weekend night ever. So lift ticket was $37, then $35 to rent skis/boots & poles. Another $10 gets you a helmet. The rental equipment was all in good shape and the process of picking it up was fairly smooth. They were a little lighter staffed since it was later in the day but it was under 10 minutes and I was on my way. Conditions were good overall. It had been warm during the day so the snow was a bit sugary but the trails were still well-groomed and we saw the grooming continue during most of our time there. We skied from 4-10pm, taking a short break to have a quick dinner at the top of the mountain. The food wasn't great. We all ordered a chicken tender basket. The chicken was obviously out of a freezer bag and there were only 2 pieces. The fries were pretty good though - and the portion was enormous. I paid $12 for a large fountain drink and this basket of fries with some puny chicken. But we don't go here to eat now, do we? We skied until the mountain closed. Along the way we met a lot of very friendly staff who asked how we liked the mountain, how the conditions were, were we having fun...it was nice to see the staff asking things like that - a great personal touch. Wounded Warrior Project had an event going on during our time there, and there was also a bus full of school kids but it didn't seem any busier than any other night skiing expedition I've been on. The crowd thinned out more by the hour. Overall nice place, beautiful facilities, friendly staff = a sure thing for a return trip for me. read more

Not a place to stay we are at the country inn where we heard that it was a great resort but it is far from that. The room is located far from the lobby on the second floor we went through 4 different doors to get to our room in building 6. The walls are paper thin so you can here everything that is going on outside and with your neighbors. The only thing that I liked about the rooms is that the sofa bed is a temperidic bed and very comfortable. read more

I grew up skiing here and love it. I have many great memories of this resort. I have skiied all over the country but stil find Jiminy very special. Growing up it was much less commercialized but the recent upgrades make the experience even better. They have great lifts, great terrain, and great specials for those that frequent the place. There are many new lodging facilities in the area but I have only stayed at the time share village to the right of the mountain. The base lodge is nice and there is great food on site. I love the round house (christiansons). The nacho grande is a great app for a ski day. There are also nice shops at the base village which gives it a real ski town feel. This mountain was great for me learning how to ski and continues to be a wonderful resort for families. Whether you are experienced or not it is worth the trip here. Don't let the location fool you into thinking it is whimpy skiing. There are a few double black diamonds that are quite challenging. For skiing in Massachusetts this is as good as it gets. read more

We got really lucky because it snowed a ton the day before, but Jiminy Peak was a blast!!! So many good trails and the staff was all very friendly. Definitely buy your tickets in advance so you can get a discount (through their website). Looking forward to coming back here next winter for sure!!! read more

After calling the front desk twice about how dirty our room was, nobody ever came. Very disappointed. The on site restaurants were lame and closed early so we went out of town to eat. The rides were fun, pool was too crowded and people weren't social distancing so we didn't go in. read more

Dirty disgusting room. Walked in to a present left in toilet and contact lenses that dried up on side of bed nightstand. Coins on floor and dirt through out room especially in corners of room. Hadn't been cleaning weeks. Went to front desk and was simply told by man behind desk that it's not something he is responsible for. Asked to speak to manager. Supposedly Gary was going to call me but never did. Horrible! Not covid safe. Not anything safe. read more

So we went to Christiansen's tavern, they charge $22.00 for a double Tito's. WOW. This is not Manhattan or White face. Food was not good and service was ok at best. We had 4 double Tito's and two apps, the bill was $375.00 plus tip. How is that possible. So if you sit at the bar a double Tito's is only $18.00. How is there a difference from the bar to the table. Never again will I go to this place for lunch or drinks. Just saying 2 app and 9 doubles $375, just doesn't seem right. read more

The worst of the worst front desk staff could learn from the staff at the dollar store. I'm at the saratoga casino hotel tonight I drove here after being treated like complete garbage at Jiminy peak. Staff was clueless on where rooms were no help with any thing despite me requesting a room that would assist my handicap manager was worse. Horrible and it was filthy. Dirt on door handles carpets. Filthy. Stay away stay away. . read more

The food there is a bit cold. I'm not too fond of the bathroom facilities. They do have nice views though!

Good experience, decent value...could do better for locals. Beat the crowds and go EARLY!! For the more advanced beginner when they are ready for the lift chair and a bigger hill this is a nice option. Of course, that is when it's not a very crowded holiday weekend. I got taken out by a snowboarder on a Saturday...it was just too crowded and some people really don't know what they're doing. $26 was a little bit more than I'd like to pay for a novice ticket considering the closest competition is $20 for a night lift ticket - all mountain pass. Other than the drive, and the slightly high price it was a good experience and we will be back. Just going to have to keep our eyes peeled for deals...oh and get there EARLY to beat the crowds! (Don't want to be slammed again by another snowboarder, Ouch!) read more

Mountain Biking DH trails were no bueno. Zero maintenance. Lodging was great, nature was on point but trails for biking were disappointing. I've never been to Berkshire East but everyone there said go there for biking instead. Maybe when the full mountain opens (July 2nd) the other trails are better. Nice staff too. read more

Skis were stolen. Arrived at Jiminy Tuesday evening, dropped skis at racks right in front of the cashier's booth, went inside to change, and when I went out to grab my skis, they were gone. I have never even considered the possibility that anything would be stolen from any ski resort. If this is the kind of thing that happens at Jimmy, I won't be back. If you go to Jiminy, lock up your stuff. read more

My 25 year old daughter and I love this mountain and all the amenities the base area has to offer. Stayed twice at Country Inn and love the proximity of the rooms to the lifts. Waffle cabin at summit is great and has spectacular views. Trails for every skiing level. Great chair lift expeditors who load up the chairs and keep the lines moving. My only complaint is the crowds on the trails and those who don't understand the skiing code, especially the small kids and the snow boarders who inexplicably park themselves in the middle of the trails. Several times, small kids cut me off and almost caused a collision. Also, skiers tend to go way too fast at the termination of John Hancock to get enough speed to ski to the lift. While walking towards the Inn, I narrowly avoided a collision with such a skier. Ski patrol should monitor this area a bit more closely. read more

A letter I sent to Management, My Family and I recently had our first experience at your resort this past weekend. The staff was exceptional, very friendly and extremely helpful. That includes the ticket cashiers, rental cashiers and techs, lodge staff, ambassadors and last but not least the SKI Patrol. I wanted to point out one person in particular. He is a member of the Ski Patrol and his name is Dan. I wish I had caught his last name but he was an older gentleman perhaps in his early to mid 50's. You see my daughter was struggling greatly with her boots. They seemed to be cutting off her circulation and she was just unable to continue down the mountain. Dan stopped to see what our distress was and quickly started to evaluate my daughters issue. He was able to calm her down and offer comfort. Dan called for a sled to bring my 14 yr old Daughter Siobhan to the bottom of the mountain as it was obvious that her discomfort would not allow her to continue. Two more members of Ski Patrol arrived to assist Dan in the descent. I wish I had taken note of the Woman and Gentleman's name as they were fantastic as well. Once we arrived at the bottom of the mountain Dan went above and beyond by personally escorting us to the rental shop to see if we could find a pair of boots that properly fit. Well Dan and the rental staff were successful. My Daughter skied the rest of the day, later that night and Sunday as well without any problems. It was like night and day. So if it were not for Dan the weekend for my daughter could have been horrible but instead turned out to be one of the best times of her life. I cannot thank Dan enough along with his colleagues that offered prompt assistance. This is now "our" mountain and the staff are a huge part of that. Kudos to management for doing a great job as well because it is clearly reflected by your employees. Thank you all for a great stay! and we will see you again soon. Best Regards, Lance read more

Been here last time right after new years, granted it's a snow-less winter so I'm not rating Jiminy Peak based on snow conditions. Overall a mediocre experience. Super expensive regular price, there are e-ticket days where you could get a lift ticket for $25, but its so crowded on those days its ridiculous. Also its a very long walk from the parking lot to the base, there are shuttles but I like to leave items in the car (like food, water, extra skis), so I return to the car many times during the day, inconvenient to have to walk so far every time. There are no glades skiing at Jiminy Peak, they have one moguls trail but its closed every time I'm there (which has been around 4 times). They have three terrain parks, but one has only one jump and one rail, the other two are bigger but not by much. The only great thing about this resort is the night skiing, a lot of trails lighted, reasonably priced, and not as crowded. Snow making is also top notch at Jiminy. Medium sized mountain priced like the giants in Vermont. Just add $10, and you could ski Mt Snow. So unless its an e-ticket day or your going night skiing, don't bother going here. read more

If you go only by the words of the man in charge, this place is world class. however... and that's a big however, this place is Western Massachusetts class at best. Don't get me wrong, Western Massachusetts class is not bad. I grew up there and lived there for a portion of my adult life. This is a classic case of not making it out to more than it is. This is 44 trails(juiced stats just like Bousquet) of decent terrain with an insane amount of infrastructure piled on at the bottom. I like the village, it is appropriate. My challenge really is not with the facilities, as they have some decent offerings. My challenge is that I have never really gotten decent service from any of the employees there. The lift operators can usually be found talking to each other, and not the skiers. The food and beverage folks are inconvenienced by you and will just choose to treat you like an enemy. The ticket counter workers are indifferent whether you are there or not. Once again, this is not a world class feel. This is a Western Massachusetts feel. I feel like if they just embraced what they were, they would be far better off. You are small resort, very family friendly, just far enough that the Long Islanders will call it a vacation but not too far that they won't come. The terrain is nice and they, somehow, always have a great base of snow. I will attribute that to Brian. Which if you have ever met the man, you know he is obsessed with snow making. There is a serious part of me that likes that. Go back to Jiminy Peak of The Berkshires.... Get rid of the World Class mantra that you will NEVER live up to. -Just my words....... after all, I don't think I matter to them... their service has proven it. read more

The resort needs dome updating there's a constant mildew smell throughout! For $170 a night I expect a room to be clean not dusty but the worst of all was when I went to go to sleep I felt something wet o. My foot when I pull the sheets back there was a booger on the sheets! It was disgusting! I will probably never stay there again! read more

i love jiminy. love it. i love the fact that it is so close. i love that they have night skiing. i love that they do a state workers night (as a nyiso employee i qualify) for so cheap. i love that they have a deal where you buy a discount card for $39 and you get a free pass for any day in march (these tickets are $59 so you save $20 right off the bat) and then you get $15 off every ticket after. i love that they have a wind turbine for creating their snow (how hot is that? using a renewable resource for such a great thing?) i love that they have a skiiwee program that is only $88 for an all day lesson including lunch and ticket. i love their employees and their happy cheerful demeanors and attitudes. i love that they give you a sample of hot mulled cider when you leave. have i mentioned that i love jiminy? i came here for state workers night last tuesday and the riding was sublimely blissful. pure untouched snow, warm weather combined with no sound other than that of the board cutting thru the powder and the occasional whoops of joy from others being transported by such joy. there is nothing like it. the sound of the turbine was intense as well. you much experience it to understand. if you like to do stuff in snow. go to jiminy. you too will be among those who Love Jiminy. read more

Just came back from a weekend at Jiminy Peak and had a great time. We enrolled our 3 year old and 6 year old in the Ski-Wee programs and were very impressed with the ski instructors, the level of skill our children learned and the fun they had throughout the day! Best was we got report cards at the end so we now know where to start them off next time. Great program to get your kids on the mountain! read more

I stayed here around the end of the 2019 summer. I had a wonderful stay and the food was amazing. What made my 2 day stay even more amazing was the wonderful employee Marrison. I think that's how you spell his name. He became friends with me and my little brother . He was funny and supper easy going and is a wonderful employee. If he ever sees this I want him to know that I have my empty water bottle. Inside joke. read more

Great for first time skiers! My nine and seven years olds had a such a great time first in GET lessons and then skiing with us. Instructor Jeff was great with them. Very pretty surroundings. Hotel was okay, on site restaurants not great, but fun weekend overall. Less expensive and closer then big Vermont resorts. Having said all this - others guests were incredibly rude to staff - after two and a half days of witnessing a complete lack of manners even my boys thought people should be nicer. Just wow. read more

Love it here! This is our favorite ski area. Not too big, has everything that you need here. And, it is such a beautiful resort.

Wow What a great place. Let me start off by saying we went there for a Winter family ski vacation with 5 kids and we had a great time.Conditions were great. We stayed in Bentley Brook in a Two Bed Condo overlooking the slopes. There was much to do including a game room, movie theater and pool. The staff was pleasant, The rooms were clean and well appointed. The ski school staff was very good and my 5 year old learned to snowboard quite well. Overall the vacation was very reasonable and we liked the small village setting because we could let our teenager go on their own but still find them when needed. I thought we might get bored but we skied day and night every day and had a blast. I'm an expert and my family intermidiate skiers and boarders. This place is not Killington or Park City but it was a great value and the kids loved it. read more

If you want to sleep, this is not the place to do it. After getting in after 1am from attending a music festival,We were awoken before 7am by the people above us. They had a child who was running, jumping on the bed and screaming. He was so loud the doors in our room were shaking. After an hour of this we called the front desk, they called us back and informed us that the people were packing to leave... An hour later the noise finally stopped ( more than 2 hours of noise)but not 15 min later (9:15am) housekeeping knocked on our door. She literally said "oh your still sleeping" Beyond our upstairs neighbors it is just a very loud hotel. If anyone walked up the hall or the stairs you knew. And I am a very deep sleeper so this says a lot! Positive: the bed was very comfortable, sheets clean and pillows perfect and staff let us check out late read more

Stopped off at jiminy peak to break up a long road trip with my 7 year old son and my husband. Spent about 90 minutes doing alpine slide and 2 coaster rides. Everyone had a great time and it made the day a fun day, rather than a travel day. The staff was very attentive and helpful, especially Adam at the coaster ride. The lines weren't too long. Everything felt very safe and kept up. We will definitely be back, either for a quick stop again or maybe as a half day diversion . read more

We love this place! So fun to stay in the Country Inn and ski right to the rooms. We spent Christmas there and had a two lovely meals in the John Hancock restaurant.We also had a great breakfast and lunch in Christensen's Tavern. Staff was so friendly everywhere we went. We even used the pro shop to get our snowboard waxed and edges sharpened. Upon arriving home we realized that we left our book of over 10 DVD movies in the room. I called and spoke to the housekeeping manager. Within 10 minutes she called me back with the good news the one of the housekeeping staff had turned it in! She shipped it to me via Fedex! Left me with such a great feeling about the place that I already loved. Will definintely return. read more

We stayed at the amazing time share condos, the condo was beautiful. It was quiet and out of the way, overall the resort was lovely. The only disadvantage was the large amount of Mountain Bikers on the mountain... this was only a disadvantage because it made me jealous of there nice down hill bikes, so really it wasn't much of a disadvantage. read more

Haven't been to Jiminy in several years. I can honestly say, for a mid-sized mountain, it has seriously nice amenities. The lifts are good for the most part-- well maintained, some are older, but that's fine. The foods and drinks on offer in the lodges are very good when compared to similarly sized resorts in the NY/MA/VT area. I was actually impressed in the quality of the burger at the Tavern near the triple chair. Secondly, most of the employees seem outgoing and friendly. I usually don't make a trip there specifically, I usually go further up to VT for skiing, but in a pinch and if the storm totals are similar all around? Why drive further? This is a solid place. read more
