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.
Awesome little big place. It's as unique as Mad River Glen and as worthwhile a trek. This is a place to ski. Not to be seen or be pampered. The hot tubs and saunas are great. Food is solid enough. And the cabins are clean if a little sparse. Happy to make the trip. Wish it were closer to home, but that's also what keeps it from getting overwhelmed. I've been there in March with no new snow in 2 weeks and still found untracked powder in the woods.

The “mountain” and surrounding scenery are beautiful. The staff are unfriendly, the lodgings aggressively spartan, and the resort/property drives and roads dangerously unlit. The staff seem irritated at the presence of the patrons, and the ski “resort” seems to resent its location in the Midwest. I wasn’t expecting or seeking luxury, but this place feels like it goes out of its way to be unwelcoming. It projects a culture out of sync with its location. I don’t think the owner has learned much from his previous business failures that resulted in part from his unwillingness to value the goodwill of the surrounding community.

Lots of powder, big bumps, good vibes

I first went to Mount Bohemia three years ago with a buddy, and I cannot imagine a year where I don't go back at least twice in a season. I live four-hours away, and much closer to several "normal midwest ski resorts." The drive to Boho is well worth it. There is nothing like it in the midwest. It is not a place for beginners or families, but it is an amazing experience for anyone who is at least a confident intermediate. Anybody can find a challenge with all the gladed runs, moguls, powder stashes, cliffs, rock outcroppings, and almost no boundaries. Ski where you want at your own risk. Since there is no grooming or snow making, it does get tracked up during periods with little natural snow. If you can plan your trip around fresh snowfall I recommend it. Either way this place will give you a workout. Special mention, the large outdoor hot tub, heated outdoor swimming pool, and steam room are awesome! After your legs are tired from a day of skiing, play a game of pool volleyball, or just chill in the hot tub.

My oh my! Believe the hype.
Skied on a midweek big powder day … this place is the cat’s meow … trees, gullies, drops. Don’t bother to bring your Blue square buddies - or - spouse that skis the greens - they will hate it …and you for bringing them. Sure its not the Bird or Jackson Hole… but it’s a square mile of Heaven to explore on a powder day with no green runs or beginners or lift lines.
You can plan on taking your sticks to a healer when you return home… you’ll likely scuff something serious at some point but you won’t care!
You want the snow to be fresh here… thankfully that’s pretty common (as I type this the snow has already filled in my 20 runs worth of tracks and has laid out a new blanket for tomorrow).
I can’t comment on housing but the Yurts are great for a quick lunch.

We happened upon this place about 7 or 8 years ago. We took the kids up (the youngest being about 7). It was everything we could have hoped. Incredible glade skiing with almost no "boundaries". Just ski where you like and the bus will pick you up wherever you pop out. I can't describe how much fun it is! I didn't try the new hot tub (gross) but if you like that kind of thing it looks amazing. I love that it takes a trip to get there are is keeps most people away. :)

Believe the hype when it comes to terrain. Bohemia has legit steeps, cliffs, etc.
The problem is they don't get thatich snow(relatively speaking) and the new normal mild winters rarely allows much base to build up. Bring beater skis!

this place could be the best but needs lift upgrades desperately!!!! and parking expanded before you can think about more sleeping accommodations!!

This is a little oasis of legit expert skiing in the Midwest. Bring wide skis you don't mind hitting rocks with.
By far the best part of this place is just being somewhere in the midwest with all the expert skiers from all over the region. It's a very large area and you can do a huge amount of exploring if you want to go looking out in the flatter areas way way out there....Or you can stay in the fall line and ski steeper areas right down to the lifts or the road.
Show this little ski area some respect...if you took it and pasted it into Jackson or Snowbird, it may not be the best skiing there, but it wouldn't be a "never gets skied" thing either...If you like tight trees this place will blow your mind. If you're an expert skier in the midwest and bored to death skiing groomers everywhere you're going to be shocked when you take your first few runs here. Real snow, real terrain, real skiers...It's an oasis.
