Reserved a 5:15pm Snow Tubing session with a few friends and our kids, ages 4-8. The sun went down at 4:45pm, and the lights, music and staff made it one of our best memories over winter break. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! *Food: They have a college cafeteria-style option nearby, but we chose to eat in North Bend at the Iron Duck. Great kids menu, huge restaurant with plenty of seating - we had a long table with plenty of space. Food was delicious, and ample selections of ciders/beers. *Reservations: Super easy, but get on it! The Saturday options were mostly booked out over a week in advance. They offer day sessions, about 2 hours each (9:30am, 11a, 1:15p, 3:15p) and night sessions (5:15p, 7:15p). The website is simple enough, be ready to sign waivers. *Drive/parking: Easy to find off (and not far from) the freeway using GPS. The parking lot needs more signage! We weren't completely sure we found it with all the snow and rain. *Go around a bend to the right, and you'll see a little ticket cabin with windows. *Staff: WONDERFUL. From check-in using our e-mail to the staff on the hill, they were all smiles. *Tubing: Awesome!! Our time was 5:15 - 7pm, but with the 4 year old, we were done about 6:40pm. We were able to go up to the hill constantly without much waiting. Everything is provided for you - sledding tube (we took the kids on it with us, or two 7-8 year olds together) and tram to take you back up so you don't get exhausted. Ah so fun. *Tips: Snow gear is a MUST. Boots, gloves that tighten under coats, etc. Bring a change of clothes for the little ones in the car. This saved us as a few toes got wet. Thank you Summit! read more

I'm giving this a full 5 stars because all of the pros outweigh the cons. We registered for the 9am session on New Years Eve which is about 1 hour and 45 mins, and cost around $45 per person over 44" tall. Our large group was full of littles and adults alike. The tube is included and the staff were friendly and clear on rules and guidelines. Please note, there are port a potty's ...ewww, I know! But these were clean at 9am. You'll need to change in your car or come dressed for the weather. The tube hill is a hike, so be warned you'll get your exercise. I wish my snow boots had a bit more traction, but I made it up and down about 5 times (taking a few potty breaks). There's a magic carpet, but the lines will be long and the carpet is slow for safety. There was plenty of parking and the roads were clear in the early AM. Can't wait to go again before the season ends! read more

This is an activity I have enjoyed many times over the years, but one I thought might get skipped this year with covid. Luckily it is currently happening with masks required the entire time. It's easy enough to book a time online, it might even be less crowded than it normally is. It's kind of pricey for a close to 2 hour session and they are mostly open Fri-Sun. Its much more reasonably priced if you happen to be a season pass holder and then you should make sure not to miss this. The parking lot seemed pretty sparse on a Friday morning session. There are porta pottys available. It's been a few years since I have gone, but I am very happy to see there is now a conveyor belt tunnel to get you to the top of the hill. The line is annoying and slow, but does seem better than hiking up the hill constantly for almost 2 hours. On this particular session I was upset and nearly asked for a refund as it took them a long time to get this thing started. We had to hike up the hill 3 times before they got it working, and while normally I wouldn't mind so much I find it hard to do intense exercise wearing a mask. Perhaps the line normally goes faster when they don't leave as much space for social distancing but not certain about this. They seemed really disorganized this morning, perhaps due to the power outage prior, but it took them nearly our entire session to put down the mats that are used to slow you down at the end of the hill. We had attempted to reschedule our time slot and were unable to get thru to anyone by phone, but did eventually get a response by email. Overall this is a good way to spend some time outdoors doing something fun and active. It would be nice if the music played a little louder and if they had some hot beverages available to help you warm up. read more

What a fun place! Thankfully we bought our tickets online, when we arrived only the evening session was available. There's lots of parking however the ski area is also across the street so you do need to go early in case you need to drive around a bit to find a parking spot. There are bathrooms and food available before you go inside the tubing area. Once inside the tubing area you informed of the rules, basically easy to follow and really it's mostly to keep everyone safe. You choose your tube and tube away! I love that they play music on the speakers and they have a walk on lift for you and your tube. You can also walk up instead of waiting in line to enter the lift. My family and I walked it about 4 times then to catch our breath we used the lift. It's a fun place for everyone, all ages. I can't wait to be back for their spring splash event on April 23rd. read more

Fun times! My friends and I came here for snow tubing and had a blast! We bought our tickets online two weeks prior, as we heard they sell out and the day we visited - there was a huge sign on the entrance, indicating the (two-hour) session was sold out. Once you exit on to the pass, there's a huge sign, telling you where to go for the tubing center. The parking lot is near the entrance and for the 3:45 session, we didn't have any trouble finding a spot. We made sure to get there early as the information says to do so, so we avoided any line to get our tickets. You can't print tickets after your purchase online - you still need to check in and get the physical ticket to put on your jacket for access. The hill isn't steep nor is it very high, but enough that you definitely feel the speed of the slope when you slide down! All of the tubes are located right at the top of the hill when you first enter, so you just grab one and get in one of the several lines to go down. There were about 10 lines with four employees, helping navigate. If you even wanted a push - they're down to do that, too! At the bottom of the hill after tubing down you get in line to ride the covered escalator/lift that carries you back up to the hill. There wasn't really ever too long of a wait, but you can certainly walk up the hill with your tube if you don't want to wait. The line does go by quickly though. There is a lodge area where you can hang out, which is the same building where you get your tickets. The menu is limited with hot food items, and they sell beverages and some snacks. No alcohol. This is also where the only restrooms in the area are, so expect a line. Overall, buckle up and have fun! Employees here were all so nice, helping out and making sure everyone had a good time! I felt like the session went by so fast even if the sessions are two hours long! So much fun - I would happily go again! read more

This is my first time tubing here, it was such a fantastic experience! This is an activity that is great for people of all ages, I saw a bunch of parents bringing their kids, but my friend and I (two grown ass adults) also really enjoyed our time here. First, all ticket sales were online this year. We literally managed to snatch up the two last tickets of the season because it was sold out for March and April. Getting the tickets online was very easy, you get a barcode and then when you get to the park you just go to the booth, they scan the code and then give you your session tickets to attach to your snow jacket. The parking lot is further down from freeway off ramp, and there was a small sign that pointed further to the tubing parking. I got there 20 minutes before my session and was able to start on time. The line for the magic carpet was long so we only used it the first time we went up, for the rest of the session we just walked up, it was quite a workout but super fun. The sessions were run very smoothly, they had plenty of staff around. We did about 12 runs in the one hour and 45 minutes allotted time. Would love to come back here again next season! Five stars for the experience, but giving it four stars because tickets were so hard to get! read more

This is a kind of odd post review. Unique for sure! Monday - Tuesday Feb 15-16, 2021 The Pass was closed. But, fortunately (kind of) it reopened Tuesday evening (3pm). So, we had scheduled our tubing for Wed, Feb 17 (first session). We bought these tickets back in late January. Did I mention it snowed another 12" overnight. So, with the closure of the Pass and additional snow... We came in to Wednesday morning session to at least 18-24" of snow on the tubing runs. They weren't groomed. Meaning the runs were basically virgin. It was awesome until you stopped on the hill and had to trudge the rest of the hill down to the end. We are into snow shoeing but this was basically blazing a new trail in knee high snow. Okay so rant over. Bottomline: My 8 year old son had a blast. Not often that much un-groomed snow. Lesson's Learned: 1) Ticketing office is at the lower parking lot (not their usual location at the top) 2) Tape down your pants so no snow comes up. I had snow pants but I saw a lot of folks not prepared for this. Typically one doesn't need them much as the slopes are often well groomed. 3) Expect a lot of work and not much sliding with that much new snow. At the end of our session (close to 10:30) the runs were getting better. Instead of stopping on the bottom of the hill you got about 1/3-1/2 of the run. Unlike other times where they had placed mats at the end of the run to slow you down... The extra snow easily stopped you. 4) Don't be the first session after a Pass closure! Lol Granted it was a different (unique) experience for sure! read more

Summit At Snoqualmie - Tubing runs. Taken from bottom. As you can see folks are stopped on the hill. This was after several runs. - Resorts Near Me - Snoqualmie Pass, Washington

First time for us tubing in Washington 3/11/2022. First of all I booked one week early, but I booked for 6 of us instead of 5, finding a way to contact them was a little hard, they do have on line submission for issues but I'm old and rather talk with someone. Anyways I submitted my issue, and they refunded one ticket, which was awesome. Made our way there, got in early for the first session, wasn't sure what we needed to do or how we needed to park, but just followed along with everyone. We had asked questions from the staff and they were very helpful. Before they opened up they "briefed" everyone. After they opened up, we all had fun, no complaints. So for the price of admission, it was way worth it, from what I researched, visiting state parks to do this in Washington, you need park and parking permits, and I think they require tire chains, all would have been more out of pocket than the fees at Snoqualmie Resort. read more

We had a terrible experience today. We were delayed by 1 hr due to standstill traffic jams due to minor crashes within 8 miles of the pass. Checked in at 12:15 PM, they informed us about the power outage, no ticket scanning, the lift isn't working and they don't use generators at this place. We can hike the place but no discounts or refunds. It's tough to turn back and leave when you planned and lugged your kids for almost 2 hours. My 5-year-old sled just once and wanted to use the restroom before the next slide because the trek is taking some time, I stood in the park taking some pictures of the place while waiting for my family to come back, and the staff was already asking the current batch to leave. I requested the staff member if they could let us in just for a few more slides as part of the next batch, as we came in almost when the current batch was wrapping up and there was also no lift, just as a courtesy to a customer. The staff member said he saw me in the park and I'm lying about the late check-in part, he asked me to pick my child up and get out! or else he would block us from entering the park in the future. My kid started crying because she can't tube. I tried explaining, but the staff member wouldn't listen to me, getting upset over nothing, and kept accusing me of being dishonest, he called the security from his mobile phone complaining to them that I'm refusing to leave the park, though we are not uttering a word or acting up in defense. I'm not sure if this is their operating style or some issues with just this member. Drove up 2 hrs in snow and spent $100 plus, sled just once, maybe it was my bad day, but the whole verbal aggression from this staff member was very unwarranted, especially in front of kids. Rationally thinking, this discussion could have ended neutrally at the very least if not in a positive manner. read more

My very first time tubing was 2 weeks ago and it was freakin awesome!!! I don't know how these hills are compared to snow lodges or resorts but this was an excellent experience! I had an absolute blast and maybe I lucked out because it was very smooth and the lines weren't too bad at all! We ordered our tickets ($24 for 2 hrs) like a couple days before we headed out on a Saturday. When we arrived, parking was ample and people were there helping people park. When we got to check in, it wasn't that busy and people were very helpful. There were loads and loads of snow, wind and tubes! There's about 8-10 lanes and you just pick a tube and go down a lane! That easy! The slope itself wasn't too steep but steep enough of a dip that's good for kids and adults! After sliding down, you can walk up the small and short hill or wait for the lift. I walked and waited and the walk literally takes a few mins to hike up and it was faster than waiting in line. After the 1st hr the line winds down and is definitely faster. We nonstop tubed for the 2 hrs and it was awesome. We got to tube up until the time allotted. There were very helpful staff members too. The only bummer was the slopes that were used more were harder and bumpier than the far lanes. So in the end we ended up using the far lanes because it didn't hurt the derriere as much. Otherwise, I would recommend it. And want to do night tubing next season! They have bathrooms, a small cafe for food or drinks and a room for tables to eat. Definitely worth it foe the price. Make sure to dress warmly! read more

Came here today (April 4). Bought the ticket back in February and this was the only weekend date open. As the weather was getting warmer I was worried that there wouldn't be snow on the ground. Well I was pleasantly surprised when I pulled up and there were several feet of snow on the ground, plus it was snowing a good amount during the day even! The parking lot is pretty bumpy so keep your drinks covered. We came 30min early and there were a few cars in the lot already. Got ready and checked in, then waited about 10min before starting to line up. Also the are port-a-potties only! There were probably 70 people for my session, we had a really good time. Lots of kids but also plenty of kidless adult like ourselves enjoying the ride. 10+ lanes so really no wait once you were up there. In 1.5 hours I did 6 rounds (only used magic carpet as it was too tiring to walk up). Overall lots of fun and I recommend it if you aren't big into skiing but still want to do some light snow activity. Minus one star because like the other reviews say, this place never picks up. I tried calling to ask if there was still now in April and never heard from them. Basically I doubt they will ever respond if you need to cancel after purchasing, so proceed with caution. read more

Rant: I took one star off because I waited in a long line and when I got up to the front I was told I needed a liability waiver form for my daughter. I didn't see any signs prior and the employee said "well there are signs all over place." I had to get out of line for the waiver (why they're not up at the front is beyond me they take half a second to sign) and get all the way back in the line again. When I checked I saw one sign leading up to pay and I wasn't standing next to said sign when I walked up, I was on the other side of people who were so I didn't see if. Is it my fault, sure I wasn't scanning the area for signs, but they should have them at the window. They don't take up time to fill out. ANYWAY, that said, tubing was fun. Two hours is a long time to tube, one would have sufficed. I like the escalator, but the line was so long I mostly walked up. It's kinda pricey, but I guess there are lots of staff and grooming to be done. It's something I'd do once every year or two, but it's close to Seattle if you want to do it often. read more

Summit At Snoqualmie - Resorts Near Me - Snoqualmie Pass, Washington

Pretty disappointed. The positive: the hill was great. The option to walk on 2 separate sides, or ride the little lift thing was nice and easy. The tubes are in fairly good order. We brought 3 small kids under 7 years old and I felt that they were able to be kept safe navigating the geography. The bad: You pay $40 and get 1 hr and 45 min of time. So if you are late at all......It isn't enough time as it is and since they sell out online you are just plum out of luck. They claim they ahve to have safety things done but it feels more like a money scam then for safety. For most of us this drive is over an hour. You can't control traffic so if you want to get there on time you better leave and then sit in the parking lot waiting for "your turn" There are so many people it is hard to social distance. If you stand in line to ride the thing up the hill you basically skip going down 3 times. If you want to just observe (i'm pregnant and couldn't ride) you have to pay $16 to just watch your kids. While i watched my husband bring my 3 kids up I counted that those that walked went down 3 times to my husbands 1 time by waiting in line. In 45 minutes we got up the hill and down the hill 3 total times. I will be looking for other options. For the money I'd expect more time or better way to get up the hill to get down. If you want to charge that much for such a short time then limit the people so you don't have to wait in a line to ride the tow. read more

Went snow tubing last weekend with my kid. It's his first time play snow tubing and he absolutely loves it. It's such a fun activity for the whole family. The direction to the snow tubing was clear on the google map, however the sign after we got off highway was half buried in snow, so there was a little bit confusion there. Other than that, the place was quite easy to find. Parking lot is huge and has a great view of all the snow mountains. The ticket counter was a little slow though, take the guy quite some time to processing each family. And he had quite a frustrated time adding paper when it was my turn. Tons of people for each 2 hr session. Half of them were very excited kids. There are more than a dozen snow tubing tracks there, so the waiting line is not too bad. Usually you have 4-5 people in front of you and the line goes fast. My kid loves it immediately after his first try, and kept playing it until he was exhausted from climbing up back to the hill. Not all the tracks are equal. The ones on the right were steeper, which caused people too fast to stop at the end and occasionally bumped into the crow. The ones on the left side, however, were not steep enough so very often the tube stopped before it reached the end, and the people had to jump out and walked to the end line. There was an escalator to bring people back to the top from the end of the track. However the speed was quite slow and the waiting line was so long and many of us, including me and my kid, chose to walk back. The road was steep and slippery, quite a hard work out for the kids. My kid got so tired after 5~6 such climbing back that I had to drag his tube for him. But the tubing down part was so fun that he kept doing it whenever he gathered enough strength. In general, despite the $25 per person price, the activity was lots of fun for the whole family, especially no ski skill is required. read more

So so so much fun! We loved our 2 hour tubing session! We had a blast and come back year after year. The session was sold out prior to us getting there (get tickets ahead of time online). I wish they did not give out so many tickets as the lines are so long that you don't get as much tubing as you expect :( read more

Food-seriously feeling ripped off. Ordered four teriyaki chicken plates at $8.50 a pop after tubing. Got to the car and there were only SEVEN TINY pieces of chicken on each plate. Seriously!?! Not ok. Hot chocolate was great, tubing was good times, but I'm sorry, you are ripping people off with that food! read more

We had a great time! Follow thier suggested arrival time and get there 45 min early to get your printed tickets so you can avoid the line (this is for pre-purchased online orders as well). The snack shack is small so be prepared for crowded and long lines. The tubing lanes were well groomed and lots of fun. I think there were 25 lanes open to tube down. I noticed lanes 2-19 had warning signes that said, "No doubles, no traines, and no jumping". So when we noticed the lanes that didn't have the signs we naturally assumed we could ride double and we did. Once we got to the bottom we got scolded. I tried to explain that we were in the lane that didn't have the signs and thought it was ok. The guy who scolded us simply told us that we should have known better. I disagree. If you have lanes with warning signs and lanes without i think it's a common thought that it's ok to do those things that are restricted in the other lanes. I'd have to say that one double ride down the hill with my teenage daughter was the highlight of my tubing. I'm lucky if i get any communication at all from my daughter and for her to jump on my lap to ride down with shared screams and laughter was simply priceless! The five dollar charge to observe seems pretty ridiculous. Overall, a great time. read more

So much fun. Other reviews implied that it gets overcrowded, so I'm glad we were there on a Seahawks game day, which made it not as crowded as it might have otherwise been. The tubing runs have a stunning view, and I felt like there were enough newer tubes to suffice. I snagged a superfast fairly new one and was very happy with it. Just be sure to grab one that doesn't look like it's faded by the sun, looks like it's taught with air, and check the inside to make sure no metal pumping tube is sticking up -- I saw one or two with this hazard, but it was easy to pass over them for a newer one. The runs, while not watched with a hawk eye, had staff at the top every few lanes or so. You still have to use your own best judgement as to how long to wait before the previous person clears the lane, and I had to stop a small kid or two who was about to go way too early after their parents, but it was no big deal. I did once slam into a group of adults who were just casually talking at the bottom of the runs, which was so irritating. DON'T STOP AND HAVE A CHAT IN A SPOT WHERE PEOPLE ARE HURDLING TOWARD YOU AT GREAT SPEEDS! Even if you feel like you're far away from the slope, even if you're all the way near the rope line, I promise you someone can still slam into you and then you WILL fall on them and that's just awkward for everyone involved. So walk and chat! Easy as that. A few complaints I read on here were that it would be so crowded that you'd only get to do 3 or 4 runs an hour....not true of my experience. We did at least 15 runs that first hour, using the tow line half the time and walking up the other half. Walking up the side without the toe line is faster, and the slopes on the non-toe line side tend to be less croweded, since the little ones seemed to tube coser to the toe line. The toe line was handy though, and I found that going up it on my stomach was an easy way to make sure I didn't get decapitated. It is a low line, and you need to watch out for it. On my last run, when they called last call, I got a spin/push from an employee and that was a glorious ride. No matter how old you are, I highly recommend asking for an employee to spin you, you won't regret it! read more

My family loves this place. Part of our tradition to go tubing on NYE. Haven't had any issues with customer service. We usually show up and are on the mountain tubing ~30 mins after it opens mainly because my kids take forever to get their gear on. However there is usually a big rush when it opens so we are able to avoid that. Reserve your passes early online and pick them up in person when you get there. Age 6 and above can go solo. I don't know what it is but most snow resorts I've been to have a hard time maintaining their bathrooms. The bathrooms aren't nasty but they could do better. Giving them 4 and recommending. read more

I love love love coming here with friends in the winter! I wouldn't recommend end of season tubing though, as the slushy stuff tends to slow you down. This place is super organized with 10? or so chutes to go down on using their super comfy tubes. I like that the bottoms of the tubes are covered so you can throw your jacket or backpack in there when you start to overheat. If walking up the hill with your tube in tow is too much for you, there is a tow on the far side of the hill that will drag your butt back up to the top. This is fun but very slow. Be sure to get your tickets ahead of time online - almost every session is sold out before the day begins. The only time a session was available the day of that I saw this season was when the Seahawks were in the playoffs and had a game that afternoon! Warm after your session with a hot chocolate and a cookie near the parking lot -- you know you want to! read more

I have never met someone with such a bad attitude!!!! Brooke H. Is terrible. I came with a group of pass holders and pass holders children with a reserved time from guest services. One of the children forgot their pass at the window . Brooke decided to cancel our reservation even though we had already pre verified our reservations. We were able to drive to the summit office and work things out. After dealing with Brooke H. , and her terrible attitude we decided to cancel our tubing trip after spending our whole week here skiing. I have tought lessons on this Mt. For 10 plus years and am advising all friends to move to Crystal. What kind of management hires a person so unqualified to manage a kids tubing slope? My kids are crying because they cant tube. Do not do business with this place it is going down hill Fast!!! read more

The five stars is reflective of an interaction I observed with one of the staff members at Snoqualmie Tubing Center. Most of the staff were just as you would expect on a busy three-day weekend -- some staff were slightly pleasant and attentive, others answered questions with little interest. Nothing really out of the ordinary. I was in line for the escalator and I followed an Asian family that included an older woman, a young woman, and her under 5 yo daughter. I heard them speaking to each other and they spoke to me, so I knew the older woman, the grandmother of the youngster, was not a native English speaker. As the grandmother approached the escalator, the staff member (who I found out was Charlie - wore a hat with stars on it), helped the grandmother on the escalator, but because she lost her balance, he held her tightly to him to steady her, and ended up riding with her. The entire time up, he held her to ensure she didn't fall, and spoke to her so she wouldn't feel embarrassed. He said, "Don't worry, I've got you. I'll ride up the entire way." "You're 80 years old? That's great!" "Grandma, I'm so glad you are here today. It's a great day -- I'm so happy you are here." I'm sure this woman was initially embarrassed by the extra attention and care, but Charlie made this customer feel safe and comfortable, rather than making her feel like she inconvenienced him. I've observed many who work in customer service who have little patience with customers who do not speak English well and customers who may not feel like they "belong" in an activity due to age, knowledge, or ability. Charlie was very patient and welcoming. As a leader in customer service in my organization, I will be sharing this interaction with my team as an example of inclusive, individualized, and value added customer service. Well done, Charlie. On behalf of all of your customers, thank you. I hope this review doesn't get flagged because this is a true story and they deserve to have all future customers read this. And if you read this and end up going, please do give Charlie a handshake and thank you! read more

Once you get in to a tubing session, it's great. Make sure you arrive 45 minutes to an hour beforehand to allow time to stand in a really long line to get your tickets. Also, buy tickets in advance. It was heartbreaking to see families have to tell their children they had to go home empty handed as all the day's sessions had sold out by 11 am. The employees working at the tubing session did their best to make it the best experience they could. They offered pushes and were fun to interact with. I loved the variety in the music - all cool songs of different genres that I'd never heard before. Morning sessions are better, as the snow it fresh and it guarantees colder conditions. No one wants to tube in mushy snow. To make the process easier, it'd be great if Snoqualmie allowed tickets to be printed at home. Standing in the same line as people who hadn't purchased tickets was a bit strange and unnecessary. read more

Reserve tickets ahead of time to make sure you have one. We went to the day's later session so there wasn't as many people as I've heard it can have. When I went, there were enough tubes for everyone and there were enough lanes that I could go down multiple times during our session. Never had to line up for the conveyor belt going back uphill. I could see, though, how if there were even double the amount of people there, it would feel so busy that it wouldn't be as enjoyable. Would definitely recommend, though, especially for those who want to enjoy the snow but don't necessarily know how to ski/snowboard. read more

We had a blast! Including my 10 & 4 yr old boys. We ordered tickets online 2 weeks in advance, once we got there the first 3 sessions were sold out. Be sure to purchase online. I'd also suggest printing out your liability forms before hand too. Finding parking was a bit of a hassle but it was to be expected. We ended up parking on the street. The lines to actually tube were not long at all. Maybe 2-4 people in front of you. By the end of your session you can just basically walk up and head right back down. I think by that time people are too cold and tired. The best part is the tow/lift that pulls you back up. That hill can be pretty brutal after the second or third time. Who am I kidding... I only walked it once. All the workers were very friendly and playful. Shout out to the guy in the mulberry colored snow pants! Lastly, please dress your kids appropriately. No jeans and sneakers. It's cold guys. Hurt my heart watching the kiddos freeze. read more

$26 per adult for 2 hours. That's really expensive for having to spend 90% of the time waiting on line. They have a tunnel with a magic carpet to take you up if you don't mind standing on line for 20 min or you can walk up the hill. Then you have to stand in line again to go down the hill. They book way way too many people in one session. The bathrooms are a huge message too. I think in the 2 hours I went down only about 7 times because I spent so much time waiting in line. They closed like 6 lanes due to them being slushy. If they are going to close lanes they should reduce people in the session too but they don't. At the bottom people don't go to the end of the line to ride the magic carpet, instead they cut the line and merge in. read more

We always have a great time tubing here. As most others have mentioned, buy your tickets online beforehand to ensure you have a spot, and arrive at least 45 minutes early because once you get there you still have to wait in line to get your printed lift ticket. They should have two lines at the office...one for walk-ups and one for reservations. Once you get in the tubing area it's a lot of fun, they usually do a good job of getting everyone through and monitoring. However, I wish they had more than one magic carpet. On busy days it's 15-20 seconds of fun riding down the slope, then 15 minutes of waiting in line. Usually people don't last more than an hour and it starts to thin out, but it's still frustrating to wait so long. If you're in good shape you can walk up the hill, but if you're like me that gets old real fast. read more

we had an amazing time, it is a very fun experience, and very safe for adults. the center is organized well, they will let people in exactly at the time of their session. the line looks huge but actually you will get in so fast. we went there in the new year weekend, it was packed, but still it wasnt that bad, so i am assuming it will be much more fun if you go in a normal weekend. there are so many tubes. just wear your snow boots and snow pants and head there, you wont regret it. read more

Summit At Snoqualmie - Resorts Near Me - Snoqualmie Pass, Washington

Disappointed that after our second try of tubing here this month, which entailed a road trip here, hotel reservations at $150 a night, bundling up 2 very excited kids only to be let down again. 2 weeks ago the pass was closed and had to tell the kids that we had to cancel the family Christmas tubing trip because of it. We were all disappointed but understood, the hotel allowed us to reschedule and The Summit claims we will be reimbursed (still haven't seen it). We rescheduled for this weekend, checked conditions before hand and got the family pumped up! Took the trip here, checked into our hotel and headed to the tubing park to play in the parking lot until our scheduled session at 8:15. On the way there I checked my email and had received an email a few minutes before at 7:16pm from The Summit canceling our session due to "conditions". For the record it seemed fine, we found a hill and used our own tubes. On our way back to the hotel we saw a large group of people that had snuck on to the sledding property to use the hill anyways. I believe they canceled our session due to staffing issues personally, there wasn't even anyone there to turn us away or answer questions when we drove by after receiving the email only 45 minutes before our time. Just disappointed! read more

We enjoy the tubing runs, they're fast and well constructed. However, the experience is overpriced for the amount of actual sliding you get to do. When you pay $20 for a two hour time window for a child, and $23 for an adult, you expect to be able to slide more than 7 times. It feels like there are just too many people for the equipment to handle. You wait a good 10-15 minutes at the top of the hill, and equally as long if you choose to get towed back up, Our 7 runs were accomplished today by skipping the tow rope and hiking up the hill ourselves 5 of those runs. If we had waited for the tow we would only have been able to go 5 times. Lower the price, increase the time window, or limit the number of people , and this would be a better value! read more

Best tubing experience ever! We come here every year around January We love going before sunset, Session 3. That way it's not that dark to drive back. It's great for group activity! read more

See all

For this review, I am not rating the facility. This five-star review is for the Tubing Center's ski patrol employees and emergency services. I write it using the still-swollen left temporal lobe of my brain. One of the first questions I asked my friend when we arrived was, "All these kids, no helmets for rent, and no one standing at the top of the slope to regulate when you go down? Isn't that dangerous?" Once in your tube, sitting at the top and waiting for the kid in front of you to get to the very bottom of the slope, you can't really see anything past your feet. It's just aisles of kids and a few adults sitting in their tubes waiting to go down. So many kids. So many heads that might collide with other heads at very fast speeds. A system was in place where the person/people behind you, who were standing, would say "go!" and you would hesitate for a moment before pushing off the ledge. But no staff was observing the crowd, nothing was regulated. Personal responsibility is key in life, but not everyone holds that belief-- which makes high-speed "no helmet" activities dangerous, y'all. Of course, lawyers representing The Summit at Snoqualmie have written a contract you sign immediately upon paying your entrance fee. They aren't responsible for injury or death. They aren't responsible for the $10,280 in medical bills that are incurred with an emergency transport to Harborview in an ambulance, bills that you can't pay if you are currently unemployed and uninsured. But those guys in ski patrol were great when it came to knowing when to call the ambulance. They didn't see the accident happen, didn't see my skull collide with another adult's skull and knock me unconscious. My boyfriend did, though, and he carried me to the guys in ski patrol who asked all the right questions and determined I needed to be put in neck and head braces. An ambulance was called and I was taken away. They knew what to do. Harborview took care of me from there, and after CT scans and x rays and blood draws and neck traction for five hours, determined that I had a severe concussion. I was told many times how lucky I was that I wasn't paralyzed. So it could have been worse. That was two months ago and I still feel like hell. I have months of scans and visits with a neurologist ahead of me because I have some damage done that I tried to ignore at first but which has caused even more problems in the past eight weeks since the accident. The folks at the Tubing Center were nice enough to check in with me, calling for the first few weeks after the accident to check on me. Maybe they were afraid I would try to sue them. I signed a contract and I'm not a litigious jerk, so no. I appreciate their concern. So, look. WEAR A HELMET. Rent one from the ski lodge (you can walk or drive there from the Tubing Center.) If you don't have health insurance? Don't bother doing something dangerous involving speed and ice WITHOUT A HELMET. Yours in daily vertigo and ibuprofen, Tommy C read more

We've been going to the Tubing Center for three or four years now. It is our annual Christmas Break tradition and as long as the weather is nice, it can be a fun trip. However, the equipment is getting old and worn out. Many of the tubes have huge (6"+) metal air tubes sticking up where the person is supposed to be sitting. I saw a few new tubes, but basically they all need to be replaced. The biggest reason for the two star review is they let too many people in to each session. When too many people are put into this poorly laid-out facility, you get only three or four runs per hour. You'll spend 30 seconds sliding down the hill, 5 minutes hiking back up (or taking the slow rope tow) and then waiting in line for 10+ minutes. They've also pulled the boundary lines in this year at the top of the facility. This means there is even less room for people to gather tubes and navigate. It feels like a crowded concert or a shopping mall during Black Friday. New equipment, a layout redesign and a few additional runs are needed to justify the ticket price. read more

Second time coming here for a work event/team bonding and had a blast! Rating it a 3/5 because there were such long lines when we went this time, there weren't even enough tubes for everyone so we ended up waiting for 10-15 mins at a time for someone to give up their rube. We arrived 45 mins early and had to wait for our timeframe to go. Since we were so early we were first in line but it really didn't matter bc we ended up circling up to talk about rules. No doubles, trains or jumping...no fun :( understandable why they have to enforce the rules for everyone's safety but there's only so many times you can go down the small hill! Regardless, the staff are great and it's a fun time with coworkers and friends if you're thinking of a day event. We went to Whiskey Pete's afterwards and they have the best pizza!! read more

Summit At Snoqualmie - Fun Friday company event! - Resorts Near Me - Snoqualmie Pass, Washington

This place ROCKS! If you have the time, and want a nice break from boarding/skiing - this is a great place to kick back for an afternoon - especially with kids! They LOVE this place (or rather our 3.5 yr old and 2 year old do!) First off - you're going to have to plan ahead - as this place sells out fast! go to the site, reserve tickets if you want to go ... and usually you have to plan a few days in advanced, especially if you are thinking of tubing on a weekend! Can't tell you how many folks we see turned away every time we go because they thought they could just walk up and purchase tickets. They also work on a 2-hr pass ... so if you're thinking this is something you want to do for 1/2 a day - may need to buy 2 sessions. They do check your badge. So this is why this tubing park is better than most! 1. It has a people mover! Yes! An honest to goodness people mover! when you've finished your quick ride down to the bottom of the hill and you're too tired to hike through the snow with a 40 lb child who doesn't want to walk, but sit in the tube and be content with you pulling him up the hill - then add another child who weighs 30 lbs who wants you to do the same ... the people mover saves your energy. Just step up - pull the tube on and up you go. it's covered, it's fast and it's convenient! Step off at the top - and ride again! 2. They provide the tubes ... all you do is show up, get your pass, grab a tube - sit, push yourself off and down you go ... ride back up and go again and again and again. We like to race each other down and see who gets the best time. There's now belly flopping - you have to ride bottom in the tube. If you have a toddler like us, they can ride in your lap. You may have to look for a larger tube which allows you to sit deeper in the tube if you do ... so many of the tubes are small so you sit up higher and go down faster. Parking lot can fill up ... but we've always been able to find a space. Wait a minute or two and someone will be pulling out and leaving. Parking is free and the walk to the tubing park is short. Now ladies - let's talk about the bathrooms ... not a good situation as per usual. More bottoms than there are toilets. What more the bathroom situation is not great - they aren't the cleanest in the world ... but then again - what snow resort bathrooms are? They do have lockers you can use if you need to get to something. if you have a drink - most folks just pack it in snow by the back posts. There's nothing to eat there - no snack bar or restaurant so it's BYOF, but with all the great restaurants in the area - why not wait and go to one of them. All in all - great place, fun family time! read more

Overpriced, long long wait, not worth it! We pre-purchased our tickets online, but still had to stand in line for over an hour to get our pass to enter the tubing area. Our tickets were for 9 to 11 am. By the time we were done waiting, it was 10:20 am. The electricity was out, which wasn't anyone's fault, but the hike back up the hill was brutal. There were zero attendants on the hill, and not nearly enough innertubes since half the people were using them as chairs or holding onto them while standing around. Maybe there were more tickets sold than tubes available. If the electricity is on, and you get there an hour or more before your scheduled time, and you have kids 8 and under, it MIGHT be fun. But even then it is HIGHLY overpriced. read more

Bought (4) tickets to take my family during the holidays. Due to a family emergency unfortunately we had to cancel. As the tickets state there must be a 48hrs in advance request made in order to receive a refund. Went to the website and called the Tubing Centers contact # only to be told to email them regarding refunds. Emailed the tubing center over 3 weeks ago and have not heard back via email. Also, called the General # and Group sales multiple times to only get their voicemail during normal business hours. Finally called and got someone on the other end, only to speak with a young girl who was extremely rude and would not assist at all. She ended up telling me she would transfer me back to the tubing center only to hang up. -dissatisfied read more

Was fun and decently run. Reason for my low review is 2 things First the session is 2 hours. Out of the 2 hours you lose 8 minutes at the beginning getting directions. This is obviously a must and totally understandable The part that left me and a lot of fellow customers upset was that they stopped letting people go 22 minutes earlier than the published session time. That means we got 17% of our time cut off at the end. The other issue I had were the lines. They simply were to long. When the day was over we ended up getting 6 runs in during the session. read more
