  More runs than other ski areas in Metro Detroit area, nice lodge too. Enough lifts to keep the lines down, and usually there aren't any lines at all!

  Good value and great runs for the area. As a newbie I enjoy the variety of runs as I get better. Hoping to make it back this winter.

  This is a good place to take skiing lessons. I had an older instructor, and He was helpful. The hill is man-made, and the dressing room looks ancient. In all, the experience was pleasant.

  This is close to home. Their runs are well maintained and average length for Southeastern Michigan. Friendly and professional staff and lower lift fees.

  For ski areas in its class (ie non-mountainous, small hill), it has everything you need and has more variety of runs than you might imagine. Skiers and boarders share the same slopes and there is even a large half-pipe for boarders. Has basic lounge/cafeteria facilities. Probably not worth a special trip but worth a stop whenever you're in the area. Call ahead for snow conditions which can be highly variable (or nonexistent). As long as temps are cold enough, they make their own snow and are often open for skiing even when there is no accumulated snow in the surrounding area.

  This place hasn't been updated in the last 25 years! So it's badly kept, filthy and it smells really bad inside all the buildings. The food they serve is terrible, greasy, small portions and very expensive. Go to another ski area if you can.

  I absolutely love this place!, the service is amazing, they cater to your needs and hook you up with all the gear for the day, and after a long day skiing their bar is just waiting for you with cocktails that will warm you up.The areas are well signalized and they have people patrolling all the time

  I highly recommend attending alpine valley on a Wednsday becuase of the short lines. Also, I had a unfair experience while going up the tow rope next to the half pipe, I smelled weed coming from the ski patrol shed. But overall, I love alpine!

  Been here many years ago and wanted to make an stop and hit the slopes for a few hoursSnow conditions were great mainly due to the latest weatherStaff was friendly although I have to say that it was wednesday and after 16:00 so no crowded at allYes, they stop due to shift change from 17:00-18:00 but I see it as good time to rest, have a drink and make a bio-brake, this is adviced at your entry so no surprises thereBar options are nice, beers are greatI would say is not an olympic games spot but for sure a great place to ski and practice while in the area. If looking for more complex slopes then hit up north around Boyne

  This course plays fairly average and can be taken on by the average golfer. There are a few areas to look out for the OB but very scenic and tons of wildlife to view. I have never seen so much on a course, Deer, turtles, groundhogs, sandhill cranes, and many more were out and about during my visit. Well maintained course with beatable handicaps
