Mountain Creek Resort

Mountain Creek is a four season resort that transforms itself into a winter playground every December. You can carve your way down 45 trails, or test your skills in one of the three terrain parks or the superpipe, all featuring 100 percent snowmaking and night lighting. You will ski and ride down 1,040 foot vertical, serviced by 11 lifts, featuring one high-speed eight-passenger Cabriolet gondola and two high-speed quads, plus beginner terrain accessed by two Magic Carpets. Everyone can enjoy the sixlanes of snowtubing (also accessed by a Magic Carpet) open Thursday through Sunday. Mountain Creek is within a two-hour drive from anywhere in the New York City Metropolitan Area.
