Burke Mountain

This was my first time coming to Burke for mountain biking. Damn, that was amazingly fun. We had a rad crew, plus seeing a good friend in haven't seen in quite some time (patroller Cody) was awesome. We can't wait to hit up the trails this winter with her.

Best skiing in the northeast. Been going here for 35 years. Lift lines are not existent even on a packed day. You’re waiting tops 10 minutes. Two high-speed quads get you to the top of the mountain in no time

I’ve been skiing at Burke for three years now. As someone who isn’t a pro at skiing, I love this mountain. There are a couple of negatives, but first what I love. The mountain is easy to navigate, with just two lifts, a magic carpet, a T-Bar, and J-Bar. Trails are clearly marked, and mapped out. All that staff I have dealt with are very friendly, and the ski coaches are great. Anyone in the Ski-Patrol/ medic group there are amazing, and very understanding. I’ve never had a problem with the lifts being shut down, as some other comments mentioned. A couple of negatives. The food, like any other ski mountain, will basically break the bank if you know what I mean. It’s to be expected, but the food is NOT worth the price. The bathrooms at the mid-Burke lodge are deplorable. Guessing not too many people go there because the hotel is right there, but I was shocked to see how disgusting they were. Overall, it’s a great place for families and avid skiers, but also for beginners.

Stayed here recently for weekend in August family wedding nearby. Very efficient place, clean, definitely could use some updating but we’ll furnished and wonderful to have all the creature comforts like kitchen, fridge, iron, etc. Really enjoyed our Mountain View and balcony an added bonus! Seth at reception was most welcoming and took extra care when our room had different beds than we had requested. Definitely felt he treated us fairly and with care! Enjoyed the pool (brrr) and hot tub!

Burke is our happiest place amazing skiing for this who like a challenge hut it also offers beginner terrain on the lower half. Small enough to let the kiddos roam free but as large as you want to make it with never ending tree trails, fun rollercoaster kid runs and friends all over the place. Like any small mountain we have some quirks but the community, fun, safety and killer skiing makes it the best around! (Oh and you will have more runs by 10am than you have all day at "the bigger mountains"

Good skiing conditions, plenty of space on the trails even with the crowd. When an employee was present at the bottom of the lifts to manage people and make people take turns the lift loading experience was much better, especially with younger kids. The mid mountain lift by the hotel was kind of a free for all with loading once it opened after the morning wind hold. Glades were fantastic.

Had an excellent day of skiing here at Burke. It was an incredibly busy day, Saturday of the post Christmas weekend. My wife and I waited in a long line to get day tickets, and were feeling grateful for the staff who was working at the ticket desk. Although faced with some frustrated and somewhat unreasonable people, who seem to make up much of the patronage at ski mountains these days, the staff remained helpful, calm and friendly. The woman who helped us, Kayla, was particularly chipper and competent in her dealings with us and the customers ahead of us in line. Thank you to people who work in the service industry, and face the world with such grace and responsibility to do their job well, even when pressed with the sometimes unfriendly attitude of the people they are serving. We need more people for these jobs to allow us the privilege to enjoy fun and luxurious activities that we get to participate in.

Very good skiing experience. There is only one lift available to the average skier to go up to the summit but it wasn’t busy during my visit. The facilities are pretty nice but they had no food prepared at lunchtime.
