Reviews

Mark O'H

I want to give Waterville it's due respect. The Sununu family has resurrected this locally owned resort to a very respectful ski area which I would put in my top 3 in NH. The terrain is good on average, but can be great when fully opened. The recent expansion onto Green Peak, and the new 6 person chair, expanded snow making, and updated base lodge with deck have turned the experience up to another level. It's no surprise the local property values have more than doubled over the past few years, more so than any other ski area in the US. The future expansion of Green Peak and gondola to the village will even further raise the stakes. The only drawback is the increase in crowds on Saturdays and holidays. But you won't be dealing with lines any other days.
