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.
I love Vail. Always will. If you know where to go, the skiing is mind blowing. Apres at the base is meh but there are many hidden spots where the locals like to party. All around fantastic.

My biggest disappointment is the lift operation. At Winter Park and Copper mountain, they are keeping the lift lines moving by managing the ski surface conditions and the lines and they are friendly. Vail lift operators never speak to you and they do nothing to manage the ice build up around the loading zone. We saw multiple falls of people at the chair loading area in our 2 days there this week. Its ridiculous to have such poor service with the price of tickets.

Local to the Denver area and this remains my favorite resort to ski. Plenty of options on runs and restaurant options are great.
Terry Brough
Plentiful high speed gondola & lift access to a wide variety of groomed runs plus fantastic back bowls.

No bad day ever. Born and raised in Denver "57" vintage. Vail has always provided the best skiing experience BAR NONE!

Vail ski resort in Colorado is a premier destination for winter sports enthusiasts. With its vast terrain, reliable snowfall, and top-notch amenities, it offers an exceptional skiing and snowboarding experience. The resort's extensive network of lifts provides access to diverse runs suitable for all skill levels, from beginners to experts. Off the slopes, Vail Village offers a charming alpine ambiance with upscale shops, restaurants, and accommodations. While it can get crowded during peak seasons, the overall quality of the skiing and the resort's ambiance make it a top choice for many.

Expensive but incredible amount of terrain and the village is excellent for off mountain activities.
