A ski resort's overall star rating displayed here is not calculated based on a simple average but takes several factors, including the age of a review, into account.
Went there with my husband and six year old. I’m not sure what the bad reviews about the terrain not being beginner friendly are about. The blues and blacks aren’t any more difficult than anywhere else in the west. My son was able to ski the blacks (we didn’t try double blacks). Everyone was so friendly. I’d highly recommend Snowbird!

Wish they would open peaks six and eight when I was here

Just bought passes for my family and got there before the resort even opened to find out there was NO WHERE TO PARK! How do you sell passes and then not allow people enough space to park. It wasn't even a powder day, just a average day and no where to park. Very disappointed in our experience and will not be coming back.

Were there for 7 days. Mineral basin never opened. They got a couple feet of snow but lifts / terrain not opened Need to improve operations at opening terrain and lifts

Snowbird is my favorite resort in the country. The snow quality is best in the world, the terrain is engaging and can get you into spicy situations. Terrible resort for beginners and families, but if you care about skiing, and everything else is second fiddle, the bird is the place to be.

Used to be my favorite ski resort.Had been skiing at Snowbird for years. After my last going I will rarely go again. Got up there at opening 9 am.only able to get 2 runs in by noon. Delays and TYPICAL MASSIVE LINES makes this place one of my least favorite places to go of the entire west.ern states. Now one of the most expensive. $30 for what used to be free. $50 for valet skiing which until 2 years ago was $20. Like Jackson Hole they need to start limiting amt. of people. If you like walking and enjoy waiting in lines(like California) then this is your place to go.

Not going to Snowbird for restaurants, nightlife nor shopping….one of the best unwritten guarantees for snow on great terrain.

I always felt the place was overrated and the service reflected a "love it or lump it" mentality. Also, price was always higher than other areas. We always tried to vary between the four in Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons, but the Bird saw us least by far. If they bring grooming up to snuff it would go a long ways. Full disclosure: We haven't skied the last two seasons, now prices are getting prohibitive!
