First time skier, & this was an awesome experience! Every employee there was so welcoming, friendly, & helpful! Amazing customer service! Tyler was so knowledgeable & warm. She got us all set up for our 1st ski lesson. Rick was the friendliest personality, & even gave my kids an orange from his own lunch box when they were having a meltdown. Shannon was our instructor, & she was SO positive, friendly, kind, & a wonderful teacher. We went in with low expectations & positive attitudes, & had the best experience! All the employees really seemed like they loved what they were doing, enjoyed sharing their passion for winter sports, & really wanted pass that on to others. Thank you!!!

Went a couple of weeks ago. Foot of powder, excellent terrain, friendly locals, no lift lines, loved this mountain. Nice lodge at the base with food and small bar as well. If you want some local skiing with great snow, this is the spot you've been looking for.

Wolf Creek Ski Resort offers an amazing mountain experience, but there are a few things to keep in mind. I would not recommend renting equipment from here. The employees were rude, and it took forever to get a pair of boots. For rentals, check out Ski and Bow Rack—they were much better.

Also, don’t bother purchasing lift tickets or lessons ahead of time. Even with tickets already bought, you’ll still have to wait in long lines, which is a bit frustrating.

On the plus side, the mountain is fantastic! It’s perfect for skiers and snowboarders of all skill levels, with excellent coverage and most runs usually open, no matter the conditions.

A big shoutout to Paige L., who did an amazing job teaching my nephew how to snowboard. He had an awesome time, and she made it a great experience!

The resort is also just a quick drive from either South Fork or Pagosa Springs, so getting there is easy. Overall, while there were a few service issues, the skiing and snowboarding experience on the mountain made up for it.

I love Wolf Creek. Even with low snow, the terrain is still fun but the best part is the people. I had a super dumb tourist problem and Amanda at the ticket office was amazing, other people working all across the mountain were all friendly, so capable and coordinated. The food is homemade, parking staff is so good at getting everyone in the right place. Makes you realize just what a bummer corporate mountains are. And they have electric vehicle charging!

My daughter had an awesome experience at the Wolf Pup ski school at Wolf Creek Ski Area for her first-ever ski lesson. I was so impressed with the well-oiled machine set up to help us get registered and started for Evie's ski lesson. The lunch routine and schedule setup seemed seamless and perfectly designed for kids. Everyone was so kind, caring, courteous, and helpful. It really felt like a personal, caring team. This will be a lasting memory for our family and we're super grateful to the whole Wolf Pup kids ski school team!

Great ski resort with fantastic snow and a variety of runs for both beginners and experts. Lift lines were a little long at the base and I thought that the organization of the lift lines was a little inefficient compared to other resorts I’ve visited. Overall a great mountain and lots of fun to ski at! My favorite run was definitely the Bonanza Bowl.

It's beautiful ski area with tons and tons of skiing options for all levels. I love that there are so many easier slopes for my child. Everyone is very friendly and it doesn't get overly busy on the hills. The rentals are reasonbly priced. The shuttles to the parking lots work great. I do wish they would do some major bathroom updates. There are lots of them and they are clean overall but really small and very dated.

A hidden gem in colorado, no lines, you don't have to pay for parking, reasonable lift tickets.
I recommend you take alberta chair, up to the knife ridge staircase.
You gotta do a little bit of hiking to get to the staircase, take stairs,and you cross a bridge at the top
You ski down the ridge and then you can get a snow Caterpillar to pick you up and tow you up to horseshoe bowl.

Epic experience

If you're going out on the knife, bring an avalanche beacon.
