Silver Mountain Resort

We stay close to a dozen times throughout the year... every year.

Front desk is always incredibly helpful! They make check in a breeze and are always fun to interact with.

They just replaced the carpets so it has a fresh smell. The property is always very well taken care of and the rooms are stunning.

The one thing that we have a complaint on is is when you bought your season passes before you could use to the waterpark whenever.... Now you only get so many uses and it's kind of a pain compared to how it use to.

This is a great family vacation spot, perfect for couples on a romantic gateway, or a friends trip. They have something for everyone.

For the price I can't say it's totally worth it. We stayed in Building C (king suite) and did the water park.

My review for the water park:

I like that they keep it warm in there. The sky lights are great for natural lighting that isn't fluorescent everywhere. It was clean when we were there. The lazy river was nice but they don't let you bring drinks in there like Silverwood does.

The line for Flowrider was long but my son liked it. They don't have a lot of water slides (only 3). The attendant at the family raft slide was really great and I appreciated him making sure he pushed the tube so I would stay facing forward. He was awesome! So was the guy at Flowrider he helped my son a ton and gave him multiple attempts after wipeouts to try again.

The jacuzzis upstairs were SO hot. I LOVE a hot bath! But I couldn't even keep my legs in the water for more than a couple minutes without them burning. I wasn't the only one, everyone else couldn't either. We all sat on the side. But seems like a liability when you have people drinking at the bar and taking drinks in the jacuzzi to have it that hot.

Speaking of drinks, they're overpriced with barely any alcohol. So I stuck with White Claw since I knew what I was getting and it was cheaper. Previously I had ordered a double vodka club soda and tasted like just club soda and was $14.

They have a decent selection of food and were quick to make it. Again, kind of expensive but you can't bring your own food in so it is what it is.

The hotel experience was a nightmare. You can see my review on the resort Yelp page. But the summary was that the room was clean, but the sofa sleeper was uncomfortable, didn't have blankets. All blankets are paper thin, pillows suck, they're tiny and lumpy. And the noise is insane! We could hear every word our neighbors were saying AND they stayed up til 1 am talking loudly. And then other neighbors had a baby that cried all night and sounded like it was in my bed. And they woke up at 5:30 am so I barely slept.

All in all for $358 I wouldn't do it twice.

I would never recommend staying with the Silver Mountain Resort. The Resort management is totally disrespectful and rude. They have no sensitivity to the needs of their guests. The Resort fees and rentals are unreasonable.

The front desk staff is very kind and respectful but again the office management needs hospitality training.

The best place you could stay love the rooms all the staff are nice and treat you good

Awful experience. For a "resort" that we paid over $400 for the night, we left feeling very disappointed and will not be returning.

Dirty, run down, and lacking in all areas. We found blood on our bathroom door, as well as poop on the walls by the toilet and crumbs and dust everywhere throughout. The furniture was dilapidated and old. The pull out mattress sits at 45 degree angle and should not be considered a mattress that is supposed to sleep two people, as there is no way my young kids could have even slept there. The king mattress was filled with springs poking through the mattress cushion. Pillows awful.

The water park was subpar, and what earned our stay the only star. Dirty and in need of restoring in many areas of the park. One positive, the highschool lifeguards did seem alert throughout the water park.

Save your money and go somewhere else.

Went to silver mountain resort to ski while on vacation. The resort was the best price around. We had two beginners in our group that took lessons. Highly recommend it! Overall a great day. The rentals were very great quality and the assistants did a great job making sure everyone had proper equipment and that it fit well.

The food was nice in the cafeteria, just make sure to take from the back so it's fresher.

Just call me Powder Princess.

My family and I visited Silver Mountain over the holiday break for some winter skiing!

My brother and I hit the slopes, while my dad and other brother spent the afternoon drinking at the lodge. Apres ski, anyone?

We purchased a pass a day in advance, but I missed the 1pm deadline to reserve gear. Unfortunately when we arrived the rentals were packed and we ended up spending 1.5 hours getting prepped! If you're able, I'd highly recommend renting your gear well in advance.

The lodge is located high up the mountain so you have to take the longest gondola on the west coast (!!!) to get to the resort. The lodge is two stories with a cafeteria, restaurant, and a cozy bar that's 21 and up. We ordered a number of their festive cocktails to heat up after a few rounds on the slopes.

Ski conditions were great.. possibly too great. The powder was so thick that your skis easily sunk a foot whenever you stopped. I woke up with sore legs after carving fresh powder for hours.

A magical experience, but I'd note that this mountain is geared towards intermediate-advanced skiers.

I visited the Silver Mountain Resort simply to ride the gondola and eat at the top.

I will say that the gondola ride by far was with our a doubt the longest gondola ride I've ever been on. It's said to be the longest one in North America! Which in itself is amazing! I took some beautiful photos and videos.

The only downside was the food at the top. However the AMAZING gondola ride made the food not such a huge issue.

Dec 21, 2023. The tube routes were disappointing due to low snow spots. The lack of recent snowfall is no fault of the employees, but the maintenance of the routes are. Each time, people were getting stuck halfway down the routes; three of four were open. An employee would push a tube but then gave up and we were on our own to get moving again. At one point the employees set out eight hard bottom tubes. These worked much better. There were approximately 25-30 people here. When asked for more hard bottom tubes we were told they weren't inflated. So paid patrons are getting stuck on routes that are not being maintained and the employees aren't going to inflate the tubes that do work. We were underwhelmed and bummed the event was a bust.

We had a fabulous time at Silver Mountain resort. We thought our rooms were nice, clean and accommodated our needs very well. We loved the water park and enjoyed the time we spent there. We loved that although the park was busy there were no lines and we also appreciated the alert life guards.

I had two small concerns. The elevator system was old and we typically had to wait longer than we wanted for the elevator. The food options at the resort were fair. We plan to come back but will be better prepared to bring our own food, order food earlier, or get food at other restaurants in town.
