Crystal Spa at the Crystal Mountain Resort and Spa

John W.

Family friendly get away in Western Michigan. Awesome golf course.

Amanda J. F.

Beautiful place and facilities!!

Byron B.

I lucked into finding the new Bike Park at Crystal Mountain today. What an amazing find, the Adventure Center staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Tim, the bike host was extremely welcoming and knowledgeable about MTB in the area The trails themselves were so much fun, dealers choice in terms of flow or features, mostly on the smaller side but enough elevation and variety to keep me running laps. E-Bike (pedal assist) friendly as long as you power down for indicated sections of trail. The grounds were immaculate and the store was well stocked to keep me fueled and energized during my ride. It was mentioned that lift service would be available in the future, which would be great when sessioning the park and not just doing a long loop. I will be back frequently!

Mark C.

Stop in at the mountain market, ask them to carry Northern Natural hard cider!

Brian S.

Outdated, overpriced!!! Gross carpet, gross fabric chairs, gross skirting, gross filthy hvac. Avoid unless you have no sense of smell, our care about cleanliness. Wish I could get a refund, no bfast included? Sad rip off, never stay here AGAIN!!

Genevieve W.

The grounds are beautiful and the staff are wonderful. So glad we went. There could be a few more included options with your stay on the grounds and breakfast that is affordable could be nice, but other than that it was great.

Faye L.

So be there

Kathy M.

Spa Awesome

Sharon T.

We stayed in the suite overlooking the courtyard, we had such a lovely time. The Staff were accommodating, friendly, and genuinely willing to do anything to make your stay as delightful as possible. My two boys loved hanging in the pool, the rock wall, challenge course, laser tag, and archery. We had a short trip but plan to return! The breakfast food at the Wild tomatoe was great, pizza from Betsie pizza so well worth it after a busy day of play! And the mountain market is a nice touch for those little things... I think the shower and balcony were my two most favorite things in my room ? Very family friendly and highly recommend.

Raghuram T.

We were there only for the alpine slide and we enjoyed it.

Robert R.

Not bad if it’s not busy. Significant improvements. Maybe because of Covid? Service and food was excellent.

Steve O.

Awesome! The alpine slide was a blast and a great side trip on our way home from vacation!

Robert H.

We love this place! There are endless activities for everyone and the staff here are awesome!

Wesley R.

Wonderful place to get some breakfast ..the food was great..

Kim V.

The Thistle restaurant was very nice and the food was good!

Carol O.

Awesome memories being made ..

Lauren Z.

Iron fish is great !dog friendly and great whiskey!

Steve H.

Absolutely a wonderful vacation place kids and adults

Ian M.

If you're looking for something to do in the summer at a resort check out the Alpine slide. Super super fun, good speed, and great staff surrounding it. Would absolutely recommend!

Ryan C.

Golf

Raymond Y.

Great place for family, Waterpark, golf course, and other adventuros activities.

Summer D.

So much fun even in the summertime

Brett F.

Crystal Mountain is fantastic! Lodging, golf, Waterpark, restaurants all are wonderful. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Charles M.

Loved it, great place for families. Already planning next trip.

Ellen B.

Our grandso & winter ski friends love to mountain bike, on the many trails, in the summer.

Marshall A.

Very cozy. The cinnamon roll French toast is great. Had a ball????!

Charles M.

Was a horrible place. Did the alpine slide and they gave me a broken cart to ride. Took everthing i had to make it down the hill and had to walk the last part. The kids working it only cared about gooffing around thereself. Our lift passes wouldnt even work for any of our party. I only went once and the rest of us didnt even finish the hour it was so bad. Big waste of money

Hadi

Nice place

Leonard G.

Been coming here the last 6 years to have a nice and relaxing getaway. Two great golf courses and fantastic food. Also, the staff is amazing. Do yourself a favor and book a getaway.

Nicole W.

Love this place..I'm coming back this is the art park

Jennifer D.

Great staff. Stayed in the condos and were wonderful. Very clean and just about anything you need for the weekend, just bring groceries. Ate at the restaurant and food was excellent.

Chris M.

Amazing service, beautiful setting. My family and I found the ambiance of Crystal Mountain to be unique, relaxing and close to Traverse City and Sleeping Bear Dunes.

Kris R.

Super lots to do

Tom M.

Room at the Inn great decor, Food and Service at th Thistle Pub restaurant on site was good, golf courses in great shape and fun to play with beautiful vista's. All help we came in contact with were friendly. We will be back in the fall Try it you'll like it.

William H.

Beautiful

Ian W.

very noice

Rajiv N.

Snowboarding lessons here were great. It was just two of us with the instructor so he was able to give us a good amount of attention. It’s very well organised and convenient. The facilities are good with 3 different difficulty levels for beginners. I’d recommend carrying a bottle of water to keep rehydrating. Sunglasses seem pretty essential.

Frances R.

Nice clean rooms, good service.

Riley A.

I love crystal mountain, but unfortunately their customer service and policies are extremely strict and unforgiving in these uncertain times. We purchased full day lift ticket and drove over an hour to the mountain. Upon arrival we found that nearly all lifts had been shut down due to high winds. We asked for a refund on the tickets and they informed us we could not be refunded, but that we could use them for a future date. Well, little did we know COVID was going to strike and Crystal was required to close down. They did extend the policy to allow us to use them till then end of 2020, but unfortunately my boyfriend and I both caught covid and were ill for over 3 weeks beginning of December which affected our chances of going up, yet again. I called hoping that given the circumstances, that we could possibly redeem them for a spring day since the conditions aren't as desired. Unfortunately the best they could offer was 25% off new tickets. We paid over $200 and have been going to Crystal every year. Sadly, we probably won't be going to crystal anymore given their lack of empathy. Side note, I know all sales are final. I was not trying to go up during peak season, or on a busy weekend day. Covid also affected our experience at another ski resort and they automatically refunded us with virtually no hassle.

Adam P.

Friendly staff and nice accommodations

Amy B.

Love this place! It's good for beginners and experts alike. Totally worth coming out, great conditions, great staff, great food, great beer, great times!

James R.

Nice Family Friendly Place To Experience.

Cindy S.

A awsome place to eat and have a drink nice staff also thank loved it

Scott J.

Great ski resort

Mallory

Family friendly ski resort with so much to enjoy! Take a ski lesson, the instructors are top notch! Not a downhill skier? There's fat bikes, cross country skiing, and snowshoeing. Also just love the spa! It's year round too, fun outdoor activities for kids and adults, ALPINE SLIDE and I hear the golf course is great too.

Dillan O.

great for skiing

Erich S.

Great ski destination for the family

Sir Don N.

It's a beautiful place to visit for a weekend or week or more.

Ari

I came here when I was about 5 I'm now 16 and we'll i love it it's great wish it had more runs and longer and steeper but it's great

Emily A.

Great small ski mountain. It's out in the middle of nowhere, but the resort does a great job of keeping the whole family entertained. We will be back.

Misty Bleau Goddard (.

The staff was helpful & nice

Bil L.

Brian W.

Love this place, cant believe this is my back yard! Place is full of fun, great place to ski and board! Have a blast at all their events. Cant wait to hit the slopes again!

Santana

Just returned home from a visit with the family and Crystal Mountain really out did themselves with the service and friendly attitude. We were all smiles for the 3 days we were there, and that means a lot. Thank you very much everyone!!! Great crew CM!!!

Bruce M.

What a horrible experience getting a reservation is here. The worst I have had in 25 years. Phone system transfers you to three separate menus where you choose lodging and then you sorry on hold for a long wait. After finally getting a person, and getting prices I asked to have the info mailed to me... Mail never arrived... Called back thru same list menu system and long wait and requested the info be mailed a second time... Never arrived... Now going thru the same horrible system again, on hold. If my grandson didn't want to go here I would never call them again.

Mel G.

Spent the morning getting a massage from Tammara. She was excellent. One of the best massages I have had. Thanks CM for the amazing over all experience!

Doug T.

Great time ????

Kevin J V.

Great place for the kids

Chris R.

Dang ol told scam aint no dang ol crystals i looked everywhere on that dang ol mountain talkin about false advertising i tell ya what

Giovanni G.

Kinda smaller then I thought over rated. Long lines

Mike K.

Lots of chair lifts, absolutely no waiting in line, friendly staff, excellent facilities, great place to go skiing in Northern Michigan.

Cary C.

Always a great time

Kimberly Sue Vanden B.

What a wonderful and much needed long weekend getaway. The chalet was clean, cozy, gully stocked with basic needs,, had amazing mattresses and pillows in every room. Cookware was great! Skiing was fun. No issues with rentals.

Abhishek G.

Beautiful and mesmerizing place. Nice for sking.

Caleb

Crystal Mountain has proven themselves to be the least hospitable and accommodating ski resort in Michigan. They REFUSE to honor ANY medical mask exemptions, even in a completely safe outdoor environment where social distancing already exists. They pulled the "well we're a private business" card on me but they fail to operate by the actual text of the ADA which in short says public and private business MUST provide appropriate accommodations and exemptions to individuals who cannot wear masks in order to provide them with the same service/product. Except for 3 employees (shout out to y'all) who chose to respectfully accommodate me with understanding, all the others held a large chip on their shoulder and targeted me over the period of several days. It was an absolute disgrace. I decided to just cover my face with my thick hoodie in order to get through the line this young lift attendant proceeded to shut down the entire system and ask me to leave. No one else in line was on her side. A handful of people spoke out against her and rightfully so, that's no way to treat humans. A note on the lodging if you stay several days, our lodge was FULL of pet hair, which got in everything I had with me. If you're allergic to any pet dander, steer clear. There's not much soundproofing in the lodges either. I went to Crystal expecting the best, but was delivered the worst. In terms of actual skiing quality, Bittersweet Ski Resort puts Crystal Mountain to shame when it comes to anything terrain park and jumps related. If you're looking for quality builds that are built PROPERLY, do NOT go to Crystal. For example, box rails were canted, take offs were WAY too small, rails were wobbly, and jump landings were basically non existent - messed up my ankle and knee pretty badly on an overshoot which should have never happened. Get some professional builders in there please Crystal Mountain!!! If you don't value freedom, money, hospitality, comfort, and safety, go straight away to Crystal Mountain. I, and certainly hundreds of others, will never spend money here again.

Chris S.

I would not recommend going to Crystal mountain. For the price you pay, they don't deliver. They were mask Nazis and even got in the faces of my friends 3 yr old and 8 yr old. The skiing wasn't that great either and the terrain Park was poorly done. I also felt very limited because I got yelled at for going off groomed trails, or going in the terrain Park but not going on any of the features. I was definitely underwhelmed by the skiing part and the people there were controlling, domineering, and mask nazis.

Pamela G.

I've never been before. It looks like a lot of fun,I stayed in the car and watched for a few minutes. I an disabled so I can only watch, everyone looked like they were having fun.

Matthew F.

They did an excellent job ensuring guests were following mask protocol. The social distancing protocols led to some longer lines at the lifts but employees did an excellent job keeping the line moving. All runs were open and groomed well. Overall really great experience.

Delamie F.

Amazing mountain, and typically great snow/weather but the crowds and wait isn’t worth the money..

Ty

Ill start this off by saying DO NOT BUY THE FOOD. I say this because the prices are astronomical beyond belief. Anyways. The selection of slopes is great. Many to choose from. Sadly I went a day after a warm day so the snow was more icy than snowy. Would recommend and will be going back next season.

Ziggy J.

Super fun in the winter time. Haven't been in the summer time. Kids love going skiing. They even teach you how to ski if you don't know. Had a great teacher help out my family and now we try to go once a week. I'm going to miss it when the snow melts. They have a nice system set up to try to keep the line down but sometimes they get busy. They even have a food truck and drinks. Can't beat it.

Slavik Lucas M.

Great resort. But the mask enforcement has gone too far. It need to stop. People are out side, keeping distance, let people police themselves. Tired of all this mask nonsense especially when it’s outside.

Balpreet K.

Crystal Mountain is very family-friendly and great for beginning skiers. The slopes are short but fun. The caliber of instructors in group settings and private lessons is very high! I felt very prepared though it was my first time skiing.

Kevin C.

Great place to see great views. The ride up is awesome. Restaurant is a great place to eat

Chad S.

Pretty good mountain but I don't enjoy watching staff yell at 5 year old children to wear masks all day.

Bin

Really beautiful. I strongly recommend to take godonla to the summit in a sunny day. Northway trail is my favorite ski route

Amber S.

I wish there was a valet parking service. The food from The Clipper was basic grab and go food, no indoor seating but there was tables and some heat lamps scattered around. Nice place to ski and hang out.

Foxracin 31

Fun slopes , plenty of runs varying in difficulty.

Kristin H.

ZERO STARS. DO NOT GO, IT IS NOT WHAT IT USED TO BE. They sent email asking for feedback. Here is what I told them: Although the snow/powder was the absolute best I've ever seen, this was by far the absolute worst experience I have ever had skiing/snowboarding and I have been doing it for 20+ years. To be frank, you let way way way too many people on that mountain and it ruined it for everyone. When there are that many people, you cant even pick up speed or go down the mountain with any certainty you arent going to turn and collide with someone in you blind spot. Plus you have to stand in lift lines for 30 min at a time. Not to mention it is a safety hazard (because of covid and because people are bound to collide). For the record, I was there for 3 hours, only got one run in because of how long the lines were and on that one run I saw 2 pairs of people collide at high speeds because the mountain was too crowded. In all my life I have never seen anyone collide on the mountain so 2 times in 1 run is striking to me. I will no longer go to crystal and I will deter others from doing it. It makes me sad that you have control of one of the greatest natural resources in this area - the mountains in the winter are part of what makes living here so cool and it is a significant way people can recreate and interact with their environment in winter - BUT you are ruining it for everyone to sell more tickets. It is like stealing to charge people $130-150+ per day for the experience I just had. I'd recommend you never oversell the mountain like that again. I think it would be better for you to sell partial day tickets and have half as many people on the mountain at a time - i.e. some tickets 9-12, some tickets 12-3, some 3-close. But you have to cap the number of tickets you sell so lines are reasonable and people can recreate safely and enjoy themselves. I never again want to receive a text from Crystal Mountain at 1pm telling all the people sitting in a huge back up to get the the mountain (at 1pm!!!) that they wont be able to even find a parking spot until at least 2pm (an hour or two before night skiing starts). I'm sure some of these people paid for a full day and you basically told them they were going to spend more time waiting for a parking spot in their car than skiing and you told them that all they were going to get to do night skiing (where you only have 3 (lame) runs open). Please be better.

Peter N.

Something for everyone here. Stay at the Silver Skis and soak up the flakes from their hot pool.

Josh K.

Very cozy and clean place to stay with exceptional staff. The slopes are always fun and the newer lift ticket scanning system works great. We hope to visit again next year.

Caleb C.

Felt expensive and the black diamonds are more blue squares. Good grooming and fairly quick lines at the lift. Need more terrain features and side hits for those of us that aren't beginners anymore.

Joshua B.

Crystal mountain, though on the more pricey side of Michigan resorts, is one of our family's favorites. Comfortable lodging, great food options and excellent skiing!

Theresa M.

This place is great! Very fun.

Michael K.

Great atmosphere

Caitlin R.

Snow shoeing was fantastic. It was beautiful!

Crystal L.

Phenomenal experience. Friendly staff and great trails!

Briana M.

EXTREMELY disappointed. This is our first day here. We booked a room at the Inn at the Mountain. And for all the money we spent, we have had to complain about the lack of proper cleaning in our room upon check-in. There were food crumbs all over the floor when we checked in. Tables were not clean. Balcony was not clean. We did complain and have housekeeping come up to vacuum but we ended up wiping everything else down with our own Clorox wipes. You would think with COVID Being a concern, they’d step up their cleaning. But ABSOLUTELY not. Now... we’re sitting here while they fix our bathroom door that doesn’t close. ??????????? $700 for THIS??? Unacceptable. We were here to celebrate my daughters birthday. Alpine slide was okay- the kids really enjoyed it. Mediocre food options. People are really nice and hotel staff was very responsive.

Jean W.

What a great place to ski. Really has grown over the years.

Anthony “Turnaround” K.

as a child i ski’d there almost every day or night ( my mother bartended there ) and the perks were the best. moving to key largo after seasons of 5 dollar lift tickets and getting the k2 downhill ski’s it was a major change for sure but it wasn’t any argument. through the year’s there was talk of visits and returning but just didn’t happen this was my place of flight extreme speeds down the bowl and back trail adventure all the employees instructors i mean everybody were helpful caring and informative about everything i saw major bands also nazerith peter pramton others yeah it was late 70 i guess this is one of my timelines thanks for making my childhood greater than great if anybody knows my old coach from coca cola downhill team tell him i was just skiing he’ll understand thanks so much god bless and everybody enjoy it as i did full speed

The Pur-Fect L.

While the mountain is wonderful, the experience is not. Parking is always a problem, as in, they run out of parking. There aren’t enough shuttles to get you and your family to the lifts. Lines are frequently between 30-60 minutes just to get on a shuttle. And then there’s the lift lines. If you like pushing and shoving from other frustrated skiers and boarders, you’ll enjoy your time here. This resort appears to always be short staffed, from the parking attendants, shuttle drivers, ski patrol (yeah, you’ll love it when your little kid gets wiped out by out of control skiers and borders in a slow zone in the beginner area), and to the restaurant staff (when it’s open they are always out of food). The best part of this resort is what God gave it. The terrain and altitude. The rest is just disappointing.

Tirzah F.

I was taking the discovery chair lift up with my kids and the lift operator at the bottom she was very angry today.

John W.

Fun skiing and resort life!

Dan M.

Doing their best under Covid restrictions.

Wade H.

We had a wonderful stay this weekend on property for our first time visiting Crystal and were very impressed with the amenities, activities, and quality of service. We had a misunderstanding that left us with lift tickets purchased in advance but no ski equipment rentals so make sure your reservation is all set in advance. Steve from the gear shop took great care of us helping us out in a bind with the equipment demo program which also allowed us to try out some skis similar to a rental as we are looking to purchase in the future anyway. Steve was very helpful so we just wanted to have him recognized for his service. 5 stars for Steve and we will be coming back because we had such a great weekend overall!

Nevette M.

Great Midwestern ski resort. Nice hills and many of them for all levels. If you get bored here, you're not using your imagination to hone your skills.

Paul B.

Ok thank you

Carney F.

The slopes were well groomed, the staff was very friendly and helpful, the COVID protocols were well established and we felt safe. Thank you Crystal for a fun couple days skiing and flat tire snow biking! We look forward to our return!

Brett G.

Thursday was great!!! Skied all day with no long lines... Friday on the other hand was super busy in the morning but thinned out later in the day. All and all a fun couple of days.

Blue B.

Bought Bohemia season pass that also works for Crystal for 2 free passes. Apparently they get to choose when and when not you can use them. Wish that was stated when I purchased this pass.

Nikita B.

Wasn't much to do if you didn't know how to Ski

Bobbi M.

Fun

Matthew P.

I’m pretty new on the snowboard and this place provided numerous opportunities to really focus on improving. The trails are long enough to carve and there is a little something for everyone. The inn at the mountain provided us an amazing room with heated bathroom floors and a heated towel rack. The store at the in makes sure you never have to leave the resort during your stay with a hefty selection of adult beverages and snacks. They are also very military friendly. Worth the drive from almost Kentucky!

Robert L.

Great skiing they are doing it right for covid. Loving the time here.

Matthew K.

It is one of the best ski resorts in michigan!

Micah P.

Super fun and family friendly!

Eddie W.

Pretty great place. Awesome for families but something for everyone. Great memories. During covid they (at least when I went) way oversold the mountain so lift lines were long and not socially distanced. Only reason for leaving a star out. Lift lines!

Katie H.

Such a nice place to ski!

Tony P.

I left Louisiana where it was nice and hot and ventured out to Michigan! Stopped at Crystal Mountain for a ski visit. The people here are very informative and knowledgeable. The snow kept falling and falling! This place is awesome! I ventured off to make sure that I did all of the easy slopes first and then graduated to more difficult slopes after that. Had the best time ever!

Jake S.

It's great when you're not waiting in lines! The gondola is the best way to get up. Nice and relatively warm. I wish it was higher elevation so the snow was more consistent though... Nothing against Crystal. They can't change where they are

Maggie D.

Besides the rental area only have 2 employees working, beautiful resort, clean and welcoming!

Joshua H.

The guy helping snowboard rentals was very helpful. The slopes were great. I'd go back.

Will L.

Great skiing, awesome resort!

Amber Van D.

Winter goes by so much faster when you have places to go and activities to do! I loved our stay. The best part was snowboarding and then having a little community to come back to for food, shopping, relaxation and even more outdoor activities. Evening walks with our dogs were so dreamy with all of the twinkling lights and occasional fire pit stops to warm up. Got the winter blues? Crystal mountain has the cure. There is something to do for everyone!

Kenneth M.

Had a great ski break. The resort is beautiful, just too bad the pandemic has everything closed off so much. Looking forward to returning in a non-quarantine setting.

Jennifer L.

Today we had a very touching moment with a staff member who above and beyond to help out my son with his bindings. Kudos to your staff in the tune up shop. Top notch experience on the slopes and the grounds.

Emma R.

AMAZING

Ramy S.

A must visit ski resort in Washington state. Great slopes, great views and great crowd. You might catch a glimpse of Mt Rainier if you’re lucky.

Todd P.

I'm sure there are some nice employees here...somewhere. The annoying ones are the only ones you noticed. ????

Jill A.

Great school ski program with lessons

Don W.

Only 20% open, so long queues and few slopes. Some staff were rude and poorly trained. We were quizzed like naughty children for going inside, when we had a reserved room. Lots of mask nazzis making sure our faces didn't show. Found it unfriendly. Food was low standard and expensive. Did not enjoy, which is a shame because I was really looking forward to skiing.

Timothy S.

Good beginner ski hill. With some more challenging runs for the intermediate.

Kshitiz G.

Absolutely amazing experience. As first time skiiers this place didn't disappoint. We started at Mountainside cottages with a full kitchen and all the facilities. The staff was courteous and quick to help. The skiing itself was an uplifting experience. All the slopes and lift are well maintained and all safety measures are implemented. There are all levels of slopes and they are well marked with instructors on the beginner ones. I recommend this place highly especially for first timers and families.

Jesse L.

Good times at crystal mt. great resort great terrain and great staff making everything operate smooth

J R.

Ski in/out room, perfect corduroy, and tons of runs full of snow!

Robert G.

Nice atmosphere, great grooming, nice people.

Brennen

Here's our lovely picture of our cheap Miller lite and my partners spikes chocolate milk. We had a fantastic time on the mountain and it was nice to be able to get drinks and sit out by the fire. They also had a food truck which was a plus.

Dillon C.

Beautiful ski resort, the only reason I give it a 3 is because their ski patrol does not seem to care for their job. Thought I had a concussion and was looking for attention and was told “concussions are internal” and “you probably just got your bell rung” when looking for help. Overall good resort however

Susan A.

Well run considering the covid restrictions. Well maintained slopes. Safe fun activities

Leon W.

Me and Aydens first snowboarding communion. It was very reasonable. I'm so happy.

Alissa M.

Staff was very friendly, place was clean, good food at Thistle. Unfortunately with Covid, there were some unusual restrictions like no room cleaning service, but overall very nice place. Will definitely come back!

Gauge85

Love this place! It’s in my top 5

M A.

Make reservations. Outside tables available or tailgate.

Derek M.

A bit pricey. Compared to other Michigan resorts, but a wonderful resort area. Crowds can be bad on the front three lifts.

G-Money 123445

Very poor experience overall. When starting the day, I was instructed at the main lift that masks had to be worn over the nose when in line ONLY, which makes sense as people are within 6 feet of each other; however, when I got to a lift on the backside of the “mountain” (a hill, not mountain), I got my TWO DAY pass confiscated on the first night of the two day pass as I mask wasn’t wearing my mask above my nose ON THE LIFT, which I was previously told was ok by the employees that managed the main lift. This employee seemed completely disgruntled and proceeded to confiscate 4 more people’s passes behind me for similar reasons. He instructed us to wait at the top of the hill, that’s it, he said nothing else. He resumed the lift where we then waited for 45 minutes for ski patrol to show up and tell us that there was nothing they could do and that we could get our pass back the next day—keep in mind these events transpired at 7:30 P.M. or so, so there was plenty of skiing left in the night. The next day, I did as the ski patrol told me to do: I went to the ski patrol office where I then had a meeting with the ski patrol director, not only did he not know who I was (meaning employees don’t inform who they take passes from etc), but he gave me a lecture about the rules of which were different than the employee who took my pass enforced! He reiterated what the employee at the main lift said (masks had to be worn in line, not on lift or when skiing). He then proceeded to give me a pass that DID NOT WORK AT THE LIFTS. The scanner deemed it invalid as the ski patrol director gave me a pass with the wrong time meaning I wasn’t in the feasible range. The employees told me I had to go back to ski patrol and get a new pass, but I proceeded to leave, as I could not stand this terrible customer service. Overall, it was a waste of $80, and their employee management is terrible!

Lexi L.

First time skiing. Slopes were fun and challenging. Had a difficult time finding where to go and to process the flow of everything. Wish there were more guides or information spots. For a beginner going to the mountain go with someone who knows where to go, how to ski and the protocol for getting on and off the lifts????You’ll have a blast!

Gene G.

Nice place.

Anyka S.

Today was so fun!!! My brother and I booked lessons for first time snowboarding. Awesome package comes with 2 hour lesson rentals and the lift ticket! Our instructor Michelle was so dope!! She did an amazing job and made it fun!! She made the whole experience so great definitely want to come back! If you get her as an instructor you won't be let down !!!

Lee K.

It was a great treat to hit the slopes for these Wiscinsinites. Very clean, great condition, easy pay online option, easy rental. Very reasonable on cost. Highly recommended.

Logan C H.

It’s a great big hill for intermediate skiers and snowboarders. A great hill for a young one to learn how to ski or board.

David M.

Great staff friendly had a great experience

Brad M.

Staff was very friendly and snow was great. We had a great day skiing, will be coming back

Cherie C.

The most I've been relaxed for a long time, everyone was very friendly and the room was clean and comfortable. We didn't want to leave.

Scott D.

Lots of runs good variety lifts are well placed. Super easy to pick up lift ticket and they use a rfid card for the lift pass you just keep it in a poclet by itself. Lifts are speedy but easy to disembark. I had a lot of fun. The machine made snow was pretty good. The staff was very nice and helpful. It was extra fun exploring the different sections and then finding trails bacl to different lifts.

Shaun C.

A little pricey but so much fun and worth it!

Kevin B.

Drove three hours only to tell us they "sold out of tickets". Like yeah, okay. Your parking lot was less than half full. Waste of time. Caberfae Peaks had more people there and they still sold us tickets.

Jennifer D.

Love this place! Best Midwest ski resort yet!!!!

Chelsea F.

Fat tire bike rental is a great time!

Walter H.

Great for the beginner. Enough for the experienced. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Loved it

Logan R.

Great

Jacob M.

Clean and beautiful resort with friendly and helpful staff.

Jay R.

Top tier ski resort, great snow great runs and very little feral children. 10/10 will snowboard often

Patrick G.

Drove almost 6 hours to ski at Crystal Mountain over New Years and we were very disappointed. Long lift lines apparently due to over sold amount of lift tickets for the percentage of open areas and skiers and boarders unable to successfully navigate entering and exiting the lifts. ie, LOTS of noobs. The indifference and poor attitudes of the staff working the lifts, restaurant, shops, and pro shop really solidified my decision to never visit again. Did not stay on property.

Kurt N.

Always worth the drive!

Sameer S.

This was a very disappointing experience only 22% of the slope was open and only 2 chairs lifts running. This was the most disappointing ski trip I have ever had. I made the booking 2 days before going and the crystal mountain booking person did not advise of the really bad situation about only a couple of runs being open and only 2 chair lifts running. Before the booking my wife even ask if the hot tub was open and the person said yes. They lied only the pool was open, false marketing for sure. I drove 4.5 hours to get to this place and I will never go back. They don't care and did not compensate me for my accommodation it was a waste of $1000 and 3 days of my vacation time. We even reached out to the Director of operations Anne and Mike Cutler her response was we should have gone to there website and not relied on the crystal mountain booking person. Also the 2 chair lifts got so busy from 12 to 6 pm we stopped skiing because we had to wait in line for 35-40 minutes to get on the chair lift. So you will be risking ur life by potentially catching COVID19 because there are too many people waiting in line. Again when brought this to managements attention they did not care. Health and safety should shut down this facility since they are not open to listening to concerns brought to there attention. My recommendation is don't go they are doing false advertising and don't care about there customers. And I have been skiing at this place for 15 years they even took the time to agrue about that. Basically this is poor management i will never set foot on this place ever again.

This place looks like it would be a lot of fun if all of the trails were open and there wasn't a pandemic going on. Unfortunately, only 7 of the 58 runs were open (early season) and we had to wear a mask the entire time. The layout of the village is pretty nice with some likely very cool walk out homes for rent right at the bottom of the slope. I will more than likely be checking this place out some other time later in the season.

Service was really terrible. Employees seemed to have an attitude over face masks and whatnot. There were no singles allowed on the gondola, despite the fact there were no signs saying that was the case. Thankfully, once I got through the long line, they told me that although it was okay this time, in the future they would have to send me over to the Chinook chairlift. You really should have signs at the beginning of the line saying this. And were you guys really not able to give me a lift ticket at the shuttle terminal because I had an unused ticket? Seems like laziness to me. Be advised that although there are greens and blues at this resort, most of them are comparable to blacks and double blacks at some other resorts (including Stevens). In addition, most of this resort is black and double black. This isn't a bad thing, but if you are a beginner or do not ski/snowboard a lot, I would not recommend this place. If you are looking to night ski, go somewhere else. The night skiing here is an absolute joke. Only three lifts are running, but only two of them actually go to runs. The third one is for the bunny hill. You absolutely do have to take this lift unless you want to hike to the other two. Because these lifts are slow, and because people apparently are not familiar with loading onto these lifts, expect a long ride. About 20-25 minutes to get up to the top for a 2-3 minute ride down. The food is expensive here, and unlike other resorts out there, the quality is really poor. The nachos that I had were like carnival nachos. I'd expect something better than that for $18. Also keep in mind that because of COVID rules, only outdoor seating is permitted. So expect your fingers to freeze whilst eating. While I am not faulting them for this decision (point the finger at the governor for this one), was it too much to ask for to have heaters and some more covered seating? I know this was a temporary thing, but it surely does not show any signs of stopping anytime soon. One of the restaurants has a firepit outside, but they were very strict about people getting up there. So don't rely on it. The absolute worst thing that happened was the shuttles. For anyone new to this resort, you cannot park at the parking lot adjacent to the resort unless you have an ICON pass. The shuttles run to and from the parking lots to the resort... except they think that it was a super good idea to stop shuttle service during the night skiing, when there was still a fair amount of people present. I had to walk to my car in my ski boots for about a half-mile away. I didn't have my shoes because I didn't expect that to happen, like at other resorts. The farthest of these lots, F lot, is 1.2 miles away according to Google Maps. And when I drove by there, I felt really bad for the people who were still parked there. Who in the hell would think suspending shuttle service during hours was a good idea?! And there was NOBODY available to answer the phone when I was calling to inquire about it. I drove four hours from Portland to come check this resort out, after not getting a chance to see it back in March when I got my ticket. If I did check this out in March when I planned it, I would have been looking at a 3-hour drive from the Yakima area. I do not think I will be returning.

Michael Z.

My favorite ski resort in this part of Michigan! Very nice updated facilities, lots of backcountry runs. Family friendly and pet friendly.

Tom L.

The people are friendly and helpful, the slopes and lifts and rental gear are very well maintained, and the ski-in / ski-out cabins are beautiful. The ski runs are a bit short, but hey this isn't the Rockies.

Chris K.

Very modern and clean accommodation. Slopes are very close, staff are friendly.

Kunal M.

Best family place. Very friendly staff, and many activities in winter. We didn't ski but will come back for sure for it. Shuttle service was great and fast. You don't need to go out for anything. The village is beautiful during holidays. They have tesla destination chargers and other EV chargers.

Enrique De La T.

Wonderful place

Ashton M.

Spent the Christmas holiday here. Very happy. Great runs. Good time, even during covid!

Today is day 16 on the Mountain this season. Each day I have been impressed by the staff's diligence in enforcing masks. I have felt safe each day. Thanks to the Mountain for providing a safe opportunity to access this great resource during these difficult times.

Really fun resort

Matt F.

Only had two lifts open and icier conditions but overall a good time. Rentals were very accommodating and did a good job with the social distancing

Henrike

We had a reservation for today, but we got stuck in traffic on our way up and all parking lots are almost full. It is so crowded and Lift lines are so long that we decided not to go skiing. It doesn’t feel save at all!

James P.

Great mountain. Can’t wait to come back on a powder day!

Beautiful

Fantastic for a great family getaway!!

Nicholas P.

"This used to be my favorite resort in Washington, a lot has changed....." - Random Skier in lift line. Crystal Mt. is a shell of its former self. I grew up skiing Crystal, my family and I always enjoyed feeling like Crystal was a family resort and the staff working there seemed like they loved their jobs and providing a fantastic skiing experience for our family. After spending 7 years living in Bellingham and skiing Baker, I have moved south and once again Crystal is now my nearest mountain. Unfortunately it seems that what once was a proud establishment has succumbed to corporate greed. The last two seasons skiing at Crystal have been excruciatingly frustrating. The Ikon pass system that Crystal is now a part of seems to have the goal of boxing out local families that want to enjoy a day in the mountains every now and then. Current day Crystal Mountain is a place where daily ticket prices are ridiculously expensive, you can't get a parking spot most weekends, and the staff that work there seem to hate their jobs. Multiple times over the last two seasons I have been treated rudely by staff regarding ticketing issues, questions about the overpriced garbage food they serve and lift operators who seem to hate their lives. It seems that the goal of this once-beloved ski resort is not to provide skiers with the ability to enjoy their favorite mountain sport, but instead to suck as much money out of its patrons as possible. We should be trying to spread the joys of skiing to as many people as possible, not reserving it for the affluent. If there were another mountain as close as Crystal I would be overjoyed to never have to drive up Crystal Mt. Blvd. again.

Julie W.

Great property Staff could use some pep and personality.

Catherine H.

Fabulous weekend! Love the Art Park! Condo was perfect for our group!

Alessandra S.

Beautiful and very relaxing

Aaron S.

Growing up in Colorado this place for snow sports is a joke. Ski or snowboard it does not matter. You start off at the bottom take a less than enjoyable ride to the top, take off and before you know it your right back at the bottom within minutes and you either have to stop ASAP orrrrr your in the buildings. It’s to cramped up there. Not to mention for the little they offer the prices they charge people. I don’t recommend for that. Not to mention summer time is ok. But don’t expect a decent pool. The indoor pool is mostly for laps and the outdoor one is pretty much a kid pool and lap pool together. For what you pay you would think they would have more. I don’t recommend at all.

Dj T.

Beautiful anytime of the year.

Sherry G.

Beautiful fall hike

Carol S.

The condo was very lovely and comfortable.

Tina J.

Great Fall break vacation. First ti.e being at the resort.. Loved riding the chairlift up and being able to hike down the mountain, husband started thinking about which trails to ski. We are planning our trip to the resort with our kids to ski and experience winter activities.

Derrek C.

Great place for family fun! Very fancy and welcoming!

Randy S.

Sooooo beautiful

Paul W.

Excellent and beautiful facility for meetings anytime of year. The views are fantastic and the staff is always polite and helpful.

Frank G.

This is real up north resort with both golf & skiing for all seasons. Staff has always been helpful for golf.Do not ski so cannot comment on that, but golf amenities, course & pro shop are top rated.

Kevin K.

Great staff, great fall views and good northern Michigan skiing!

Fred Wallin I.

Enjoyed the fall wagon color tour and rode the ski lift to the top. Highly recommend. Very romantic with my girlfriend.

Cynthia G.

All the openess of the whole area.

J W.

The family stayed at the mountain top three bedroom, it was great, the unit we stayed in bottom floor had 2 bed rooms and bathroom and washer/dryer 2nd floor had kitchen, dinning, bathroom and family room with fire place also a deck and walk out patio, top floor had master bed room with Jacuzzis tub and bathroom. Views were amazing with the fall colors at peak and its a short hike up the mountain to get the most of the Views I could have walked around taking all the colors in all day.

Kimberly N.

The chairlift ride to see the Autumn colors was awesome. However, the line to purchase a wristband for the ride was longer than it needed to be. There was little communication between the staff and poorly organized, which was the cause of long wait times.

Steve M.

Big resort

David Stanton I.

Over priced and they played music till 11:30 at night. No free breakfast for the amount of money you pay for a room.

Sandy E.

A very cool place to visit. Hiking, chairlift and Alpine Slide were a lot of fun.

Robin D.

The website said attraction tickets would be available until 6:00 pm. We called on our way up and were assured we would be able to ride the lift. My family of six drove over 5 and a half hours one way and we arrived at 3:00 pm. 8 minutes later we were very rudely kicked out of line when an attendant counting people estimated the people in front of us would be the last to ride by 6:00. We returned at 5:25 and the line was gone but the ticket booth was closed.... waaay before 6:00. I have been visiting Crystal Mountain since I was a child but after the way we and many other families were treated, we will take our business elsewhere.

Bill S.

WE WENT ON SATURDAY 10/10 TO RIDE THE LIFT TO THE TOP TO VIEW THECOLORS OF THE LANDSCAPE. UNTIL ARRIVING WE FOUND AN EXTREMELY LONG LINE. AFTER STANDING IN LINE FOR OVER 2 HOURS I WENT OVER TO THE OFFICE TO SEE IF THEY HAD A SHUTTLE TO THE TOP. THE LADY SAID I HAD TO RIDE THE LIGT TO RIDE THE TOBAGGON BACK DOWN. I TRIED TO TELL HER THAT I'M 74 AND 4 MONTHS AGO HAD A TRIPLE BY-PASS. SHE THEN BLEW ME OFF SAYING THAT IT WAS AGAINST ALPHINE RULES. I WALKED AWAY BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO SAY SOMETHING THAT THE LADY PROBABLY WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND. I THEN WENT BACK AND GOT IN LINE WITH MY FAMILY. HALF AN HOUR LATER A YOUNG LADY TOLD ME TO GO TO THE RED DOOR TO FILL OUT A WAIVER. AFTER FILLING OUT THE WAIVER WE WERE TOLD TO GO GET IN THE SHORT LINE (VIEW COLORS ONLY) NO ONE WAS IN SHORT LINE. THE PERSON IN CHARGE SHOULD BE FIRED!!!! QUESTIONS FOR MANAGEMENT HOW HARD WOULD IT HAVE BEEN TO SAY LINE 1 VIEW COLORS LINE 2 RIDE UP TAKE TOBAGGON DOWN. WHY COULDN'T YOU HAVE PAPER WAIVERS OUTSIDE TO SPEED UP THE PROCESS? WHEN WE CAME BACK DOWN THE PEOPLE BEHIND US WERE STILL IN THE LINE WAITING TO SIGN THE WAIVERS. SEEMS TO ME THAT THOSE PEOPLE PAYING ONLY $5 FOR A RIDE ARE NOT PEOPLE TO WORRY ABOUT . THEY ONLY WANT THOSE WHO PAY BIG BUCKS FOR A WEDDING OR ROOM TO BE HAPPY' TO THE MANAGEMENT: PLEASE BE SURE THAT I WILL NOT BE BACK AND THAT I WILL SHARE MY EXPERIENCE WITH THE ENTIRE STATE OF WISCONSIN. BUT YOU PROBABLY DON'T CARE. BILL FROM WISCONSIN

Faith

Great resort for family ski vacay. Staff is quick and efficient, got us all outfitted in 20 minutes! They offer lessons for beginners with patient, experienced instructors

Jan I.

Whoo hoo! We went up in the chairlift, down with the slide. It was worth the wait!

Ron W.

Rode the chairlift up the hill to view the fall colors.

Manu G.

The place is awesome, n the wireride is cool.

A Google U.

Great amenities, facilities, service and atmosphere! Had an awesome time, will definitely return soon!

Yasser J.

Great place for golf, fall views, for better views top mountain houses are great. If you want to be close to golf carts and chair lifts stay either at the inn or Kinlochen. There is also a restaurant in Kinlochen and a grocery store.

Lee Y.

Didn't stay here but visited and they're were no signs to help you navigate through the area, restrooms were closed and no one was anywhere around to help. I'm sure it's much better during ski season

Jessie R.

Great anniversary trip

Brice J.

Lots to do summer or winter. We went hiking on the mountain and it looks promising.

Karla N. (.

Fall season ?

Harry C.

Beautiful!!!

Jordan Mcdonald M.

The best ski resort ive ever been to!

Jeffrey J.

Fun golf courses and real nice family resort.

Audrey F.

Great ski place! I love how there is lodges with good food and plenty of rides for all different levels of skiers and snowboarders!

Dayle V.

Service, great golf courses, quality clothing in shops. We don't eat there often but it's always great when we do. Dining is a bit pricey but good. Always is sanitized too.

David R.

We were seriously disappointed with last season at Crystal Mountain Resort. Last year was our family's first year at Crystal. We purchased seasons passes, becuase we had heard nothing but good things from family and friends about the mountain. But, with 2 plus hours in traffic everytime we went up, and poor mountain communication about parking and capacity. And, although we were happy that Crystal tried to re-open for late season skiing, the poorly managed "reservation system" that sold out of tickets in literally a fee seconds made a last trip impossible for us. So, we will not repurchase seasons passes for the foreseeable future. In our opinion, it's to bad that operators/owners of the area could not get it together, as the run lengths, and conditions were much better then other local areas.

Brian W.

Fantastic place to play disc golf; with the changes in elevation coupled with the fact it's FREE! Unless you want to ride the chairlift to the top/ starting point. Very clean with stunning views and challenging lies. Thank you Crystal Mountain! See you in the winter!

Marie T.

Very beautiful and lovely accommodation.

Thomas K.

Excellent golf course and accommodations.

Jeff B.

Interesting disc golf with some nice views

Steven

Love this place. We keep going back.

J L.

Amazing as always

Jason K.

Amazing and beautiful

Trevor D.

Great place for a family vacation.

Jennifer M.

Took the gondola up and hiked down with kids. Great views of ant. Rainier. Highly recommend!

Hugh S.

A hidden gem. Well kept property. Family time oriented. Summer and winter.

Jay F.

Rating is only for alpine sledding as of Labor day weekend 2020...only one track running and COVID has the process running slow. Only 20 riders allowed at the top at one time. Lift stops to regulate riders, closes from 130 to 3pm for cleaning and then closes for the day at 5pm....takes about 45 minutes for one ride with all the wait time...bring your patience and lower your expectations

Debra F.

Wonderful facilities, beautiful room, fun family pool and great golf courses!

Ms. P.

Fun fun fun

Vanessa W.

Loved the stay and everyone was very welcome! We might come back this winter for the whole experience!????

Laura W.

Crystal mountain is run like a well-oiled machine. I have never met a staff member that isn't willing to help and super friendly. The fitness center, the newly refurbished rooms, golf course, dining, spa, ski makes this a well rounded lovely place to spend time.

Nathan S.

Awesome views. Well worth the drive

Chris F.

Absolutely one of the best places to play! Excellent atmosphere, friendly staff, great course conditions, you will definitely make putts on these greens! Would highly recommend

Michael G.

Don't ever go for the Alpine Slide or any other of there activities...completely unorganized and excessively long wait times.

A G.

great place to relax

Beatriz A.

The best view Cristal mountain

David S.

Great trip! I highly recommend! They were pretty careful about Corona virus, so that was a plus

Tim

Fabulous place!!!

Doug S.

Crystal is supposed to be more high class. We went for the Alpine slide. The crew was glacially slow. There was maybe 15 people ahead of us and we were there 90 min before we went down.

Hollis Locke I.

Quick stop today just for the alpine slide. Great deal, buy one get one. The whole family had fun. Only one slide was functional and it looks like the other one has been down for a while. That was a bit annoying as everything was twice as long as it had to be, but the slide is a lot of fun! The staff were very friendly and helpful. We'll be back.

Phil C.

The golf courses were in great condition and the tee times were very close to the scheduled times each day. The drink cart service was beyond expectations in terms of frequency. The pre-round payment process was slow but we were never early either. The pro shop indicated there were so many discounts to enter, that it slowed the process. Breakfast was pretty good, but most of the group enjoyed the sandwiches from the grille. Overall the food / dining experience was a bit hindered by Covid and/or most felt the price / value was unfavorable at Thistle and Tomatoes.

Scott R.

Shot 18 on the Mountain Ridge course. Had a great time. Lost many balls.

Ricky M.

Alpine sleds are sure fun

Jerry Grove I.

Wish it was a lil faster

Jose C.

So to be cleared, we have been to motels, hotels and resorts. To pay about $300 per night, there are some things that you expect. I feel like you get cheated on this. I gave one star for the check in. Two for the atmosphere, the fountains, gardens are giod. The rest I expect to on the room, the food and activities. The alpine coaster took almost two hour line. No shade to wait on and just for a 30 second ride. The water park is more like a splash zone with the obstacle course, zip line and climbing wall closed. The close at 6pm too and so after this there is nothing else to do for the kids. So far definitely not impressed. Look at room we got. I have stay at motels that are better kept. The freezer in the fridge doesn't work. The screen in the room is damage, there is hair in the bathroom fan. We have a cd player in the room, and the tvs are probably first generation and no hd tv, all the channels are non hd. The coffe machine is a single shot and for some of us that like our coffee and take two cups, you finish the complementary coffee in one morning. Maybe they dont think people spend time in the rooms but we do. Still yet to try the food but my expectations are very low. Definitely not worth the price tag. This is just our first day, going to make the best of it but not looking forward to coming back. I wish I could post pictures. Contacted the resort thought email and not a single response. Shows you how much they care.

Paul S.

Clean, great place with water park, golf and alpine slide

Steven G.

Had a blast

Certified R.

EXTREMELY disappointed. This is our first day here. We booked a room at the Inn at the Mountain. And for all the money we spent, we have had to complain about the lack of proper cleaning in our room upon check-in. There were food crumbs all over the floor when we checked in. Tables were not clean. Balcony was not clean. We did complain and have housekeeping come up to vacuum but we ended up wiping everything else down with our own Clorox wipes. You would think with COVID Being a concern, they’d step up their cleaning. But ABSOLUTELY not. Now... we’re sitting here while they fix our bathroom door that doesn’t close. ??????????? $700 for THIS??? Unacceptable. We were here to celebrate my daughters birthday. Alpine slide was okay- the kids really enjoyed it. Mediocre food options. People are really nice and hotel staff was very responsive. But all of the other trouble has made this expensive trip not even worth it. NEVER AGAIN.

Jack S.

They need to do a better job Cleaing the house we rented out it was clean for the most part but there were stains in the carpet and the bathroom was dirty also the kitchen and they need to be Cleaing especially during covid-19 also some of the staff at the pool don’t wear masks when there around people for hours at a time the lines are always long at the alpine slide and the ski lift rides in the summer time it was a 2 hour wait at the top of the mountain to go down that alpine slide also when they do laser tag no one is social distancing and even on the resort they need to have stricter rules during covid-19 the shuttle drivers all are nice at the mountain market they need to restock stuff sooner but the staff is nice in there at the ice cream shack the person working there was mean to us they need to do better.

Keith K.

Pretty nice resort

Rad W.

Cool.

Mustafa A.

1 out of 2 ALPINE SLIDE BROKEN LONG WAIT TIME. 2-2.5 hours If you are at the end of wooden fence. . No refunds. DO. NOT. COME. Horrible.

Sarah G.

Great place to take the family for a little bit of outside fun. The alpine slide was great

Julie D.

Great golf

Bret H.

Staff was great. Wait for the ride was a bit long 1+ hour. Ride was a blast! We went for the alpine ride. Would ride again!

Sheena W.

Beautiful resort and so much to do! We enjoyed the spa services, gym, pool, and alpine slide! We most definitely will be back!

Mark P.

Clean, lots to do. Covid protocols on point.

John C.

Macneil H.

Very nice. Very Upscale and new. $$$

Jeffrey S.

It's no where near Seattle, quit telling people it's outside of Seattle. It is however just a few miles from tacoma.

Grant Q.

Good golf

Mark M.

My friend and I pulled up to the number one tee box on mountain ridge where there were 4 golf carts already parked on the cart path. Ken, the ranger, asked us what group we were. I told him and he said your up so the only logical way around the 4 golf carts was to go around off the path and I did as such. Ken become furious with me and proceeded to lecture and embarrass me in front of the other groups and how I should know better than to drive off the path. I nicely said that was the only way around the carts but he didn’t care. I was extremely upset with how he was treating me so I of course shank one in the woods. Ken then walks up to me and asks me if I want to hit and lose another golf ball. All in all nice course but the rude employee ruined it for me.

Wynne T.

We don't golf or ski and we still love Crystal Mountain in the summer and winter! There is so much to do. Special thanks to Jessicca for being patient, kind, and helping us figure out the best deal for our family. Also Spencer was extremely patient and helpful with our kids during archery. The only bad party of our experience today was the long wait for the Alpine Coaster. It had just opened the day before and only 1 track was open. Combine that with Covid precautions and it took a long time! My son said it was still today worth it!

Mike F.

Fantastic place, made even better by the best neighbors/friends on the planet. Do yourself a favor and check out the night sky from this location!

Perry F.

Great golf facility and friendly staff. Highly recommend a visit to this fine establishment.

You ever been skied to sleep? Got our money’s worth at Crystal Mountain in northern Michigan. Great little village with much to do after you wake up from your “snow nap.” Have skied all the resorts in Northern Michigan and we keep coming back here each winter.

Michelle A.

Good, clean resort! I appreciate that they allow cats! It was quiet when we went, but everyone was working really hard!

Andrew D.

Went on a golf trip and it was 8 of us and we had a 1 night 2 day stay and golfed 36 holes a day, it was only $120 a person, and they have good food and drinks at a fare price. Really nice workers and awesome customer service oriented business

Brian S.

People are nicer here. The stay is more pleasant here. I relax more here. I come here now. Been coming here for years.

Kayleen L.

Best place Up North.

Wild and wonderful place. Great big mountain feel.

Mike B.

Kinda pricey but always a great time.

Fix It M.

Played both courses a few times this weekend and they are in great shape. Staff is always super friendly and helpful.

Spencer R.

It was pretty fun. The big slide on the ski slope is very fun, but sometimes you stop and you have to scoot yourself to get started down the slide again. The house we got was pretty good and the service was excellent. The pool there is pretty nice too.

Dustin L.

Every stay we've had here has been excellent.

Levi “Google Maps Master” G.

Amazing for snowboarding

Vic “Captain” K.

Love it!

My daughter participated in the MRA youth ski program and loved it! She learned a lot from the instructors and was given personalized guidance when she asked. She will definitely take part again.

Shawn A.

Love this place!!

Vaughn H.

Very cool lots of lifts and runs

David C.

Amazing fun, good well kept routes, and a waffle hut!

Raiany C.

undoubtedly a wonderful place to take the family, stay and ski. polite and helpful staff.

Vmp

Expensive as hell tickets upwards of $100. Foods pricey too. Terrain is good, but gets skied out if there's no new snow in a couple days. Had some killer fun there skipping school. Just kinda wish it was still owned by a family instead of alterra and wasnt as crowded. But hey what can ya do. Not as bad as Stevens most of the time. ????

Joe B.

It's got a lot of variety and the accommodations are very nice. Anything from basic rooms to a beautiful two story condo like I rented. Several really good dining options, a great day cafeteria and a great live band at night.

Tim C.

Nice clean place

Lori M.

Great day with the girls on the mountain.

This was my second trip to Crystal Mountain as I have been going to Boyne Highlands and Mountain over the years. I loved it the first time but on this visit was frustrated by the WiFi that once again did not work in our room. At Boyne I am never a stranger and the WiFi works everywhere. No code or uneven access. I also felt uncomfortable at the Crystal spa being told it cost $30 as if I was not welcome when I called to ask its hours. Otherwise fun time and the rooms are spacious and smartly stocked

Kelly S.

My favorite place to ski!

Ross H.

Fun time.

Jamie S.

Great place to ski with great slopes and great staff.

Connor D.

Crystal mountain sucks

Greg N.

Great ???? area with amazing view for Rainier

Nicholas B.

The skiable terrain is good, nice amounts of runs. I've skied here multiple Times and I've noticed the lift operators are EXTREMELY RUDE! The last time I visited there was only one ticket window open on a peak Saturday @ 10am. In addition the counter employee would not accept my discounted pass voucher. Even though its been honored may times before this particular season. I would rather spend my money at a nice resort like Caberfae where the employees are respectful and they honor there voucher.

Alan C.

incredible experience

John D.

On the better side for Michigan but seriously expensive for the quality of terrain and snow.

David H.

This place is AMAZING!!! Even the rentals are button! How cool is that!?

Crystal D.

Friendly and responsive staff. We stayed at the Inn at the Mountain, which was newly remodeled. The one bedroom room was comfortable. For a Midwest resort, the village has a cute mountain feel and they have several events, noon-skiing activities, & entertainment. Lake effect snow and an amazing artisanal of snow cannons keeps the snow decent on the 58 runs during the season. Although the runs are relatively short, the lifts move quickly.

Seth M.

Only our second day and first visit but we got lucky and it's a beautiful snowy white winter day on the mountain. Hiking trails are well groomed and the skiing looks amazing! Night time lights and fire pits are beautiful. Food and drink options are ok so far.

Steve M.

Love this place! Great variety of trails!

A great place to go

Kristine A.

Such a beautiful resort

Jerry R.

Great service and quick responses. Local place to have a great time.

Richard S.

Went here for a ski trip. The whole process for renting gear was very smooth and prices were reasonable. The slopes were well maintained. The condo was very clean and had plenty of amenities. The staff kept the resort clean and sidewalks clear. The hot tub in the fitness center was a nice way to end the day.

Tina W.

Under the circumstances it was great

Ryan S.

I work here so my review might be a bit bias but compared to other Resorts that I have seen this place has a pretty good standard not too bad to work for them either my only complaint is that things are a bit overpriced also the spa it awsome

Tim M.

Great slopes, great atmosphere and great service!

Dantheplaneman

This place is great for many reasons. It has great service, great equipment and high snow quality. Overall, this place has a good feel to it. Best ski resort I've been to, it's not a waste of time.

Kristen L.

You have to go early or stay at the lodge because of traffic but it’s worth it. Well maintained resort, beautiful views, and the food is good! The instructors were patient, friendly and knowledgeable! Andy was great ???? thank you!

I drove up from Grand Rapids to ski here for the first time after buying my ticket online. This was the first and ladt visit I will make to this resort. The lift lines were insanely long. The runs were way shorter than I expected for a "big" Michigan resort. Do not waste your money here. Go to any of the other resorts un northern Lower Michigan. You will be happier there. I left with in an hour of arriving.

Heather D.

Good place for skiing and golfing, also ice skating rink available, fat bikes and snowshoe rentals... Good year round resort.

Brittany P.

Teddy fest is rocking and the slopes are poppin

Matt H.

Skiing is great, but the lodge is terrible. Not enough space and low ceilings. This is the worst of the lodges in MI.

Travis W.

Was here a wedding in September. Gorgeous absolutely gorgeous. Stunning views. Resort was amazing!

Bozo

Great slops to ride on

Joel D.

High speed chairs, great lift operators. Terrain for any skill level and great family atmosphere!!

Robby H.

Great Sunday family rates. $30 1pm-9pm

The Great Lakes Trucker ?.

Friendly staff, longer slopes than at other ski resorts in the area. Family friendly place. I enjoh coming to Crystal Mountain quite a bit.

Scott Van H.

Great conditions! Beautiful resort

Gnar Flow B.

This is possibly the best place to ski in Washington or even the PNW! It has a great beginner course as well as advanced trails. It has a great lodge. It also has a great park zone. This is a great place to ski and snowboard!

Ashley W.

Such a gorgeous place

Cory M.

Excellent conditions. Well groomed hills.

Michael S.

Great staff and facilities. Unfortunately limited vertical feet, typical for a Michigan ski resort.

Lynette M.

Lots to do. Nice condos. Lots of room and a good vacation place for the family

Molomo M.

Oh my, this place was phenomenal ! The accommodations at the Inn at Crystal Mountain is top of the line. Stayed in a two bedroom accommodation with one of the beds being a Murphy bed. Shower huge, nice microwave,wet bar area, and high end specialty lotions,shampoo,body wash. The restaurants are right in the back of the condos and there is a mini mart with great options, in the resort. The ski area is more than sufficient with nice runs for a mid west ski area. Really nice sport/ski stores. There is a full service spa with great services, reasonably priced. Have to go back asap, as this resort is so relaxing

Ryan W.

This was a amazing resort. Very clean facilities. Friendly people and the view is amazing. We will be back....

David F.

Fun Times. Nice resort.

Bill S.

Thistle pub and grill at Crystal Mt. Nice meal of rainbow trout and my wife had the NY strip.

Brenden M.

Great place to go for a day of riding. Had a great time and met some great people. Would definitely go back and cruise around on a snowboard all day.

Marie C.

Excellent if you have a family, a local, or are a new skier. The runs are short, with quick chairlift rides. They do a nice job running the place.

Mark S.

Overcrowded and outdated operations

Li Y.

Best ski ever! The mountain top view is so stunning!

Jen G.

Fabulous spa with eucalyptus steam bath, infrared sauna, more services than you can schedule in a day!

Matt R.

Went here for a company trip and had a great experience. Staff was very helpful and attentive. Will definitely be back!!

Andrea C.

Be aware of their booking policy. If you need to change plans within seven days of your reservation they will not give your money back. And will charge you a cancellation fee. Most hotels require 48 hours, but Crystal Mountain has a seven day policy. Customer service is poor and response times are slow. I would recommend staying off property.

Scott F.

Nice place Little City in the middle of nowhere.

Joelma G.

Came here on a holiday weekend and was very happy overall. Husband and friends went snowboarding and skiing and had a wonderful time. They were able to ride all day long, and came back to the cabin happy and satisfied! I had a different experience because I chose not to ride and enjoy the amenities instead. First, the spa is amazing! Got my nails done with a very friendly and excellent technician, Nicole, and as I write this review a week and a half later my nails still look great! I didn't book the services in advance, however, Koreen, was able to move things around and got me in for a facial. The facial was also a wonderful experience! I had the pleasure of having a very knowledgeable esthetician, Katarina, who was very professional and did a great job. Her skin analysis and recommendations have changed my skin routine, and now I actually know how to use all the products I bought in the past. This alone was worth the trip to the spa! Thank you, Katarina! If you stay at the resort you can also use the gym, pool and they also have yoga classes. I attended two of them and they were excellent. The teachers were great and the classes were so relaxing! They have fire pits outside if you need to warm up! There are also a few shops, but they are mostly focused on ski/snowboarding accessories. I feel that they could offer a wider variety of shops for people like myself that do not want to ski, and rather enjoy the resort. There is a market, but it's very disappointing. The prices are very high, and the selection is mediocre at best. They have a huge opportunity to make this market offer a great variety of fresh goods, and at least a good selection of cheese and bread. The restaurants are a huge disappointment! This was really the only aspect of the resort none of the members of our 8 people party enjoyed. The cabins do not offer that much in terms of kitchenware, however if you bring ready meals you will enjoy your visit a lot more. Also bring snacks! There is also no Netflix, only cable, so if you are planning on watching TV, plan ahead. Overall, if you plan your trip and don't rely on the expensive breakfast buffet, you will have a wonderful time here!

Michael N.

Great for whole family trip.

Jessica W.

Love skiing here! Very delicious pizza and breadstix! Nice firepit area to relax! Beautiful hotel with heated floors in bathroom! Reasonable rates! Good food! Prices are better during the week days! Over all great experience!

Scott G.

Lots of lifts and runs to go down. Ski patrol was very kind and down to earth.

Johnny P.

I have been coming here weekly for night skiing and paying $50-$55. Arrived yesterday for night skiiing and paid $75. On top of that, quicksilver kept breaking down. Paid $75 for access to two lifts, with one barely working. What a rip off. Never again. I’ll be going to snoqualmie for night skiiing from now on.

Christopher M.

Always has plenty of front row parking and no lift lines, everyone should definitely come up every weekend and avoid terrible places like baker and alpental that are boring and far away. You can thank me later

Chasing G.

It was amazing today. Nice snow and amazing service.

Xplorer

Great place to go with family

Steven W.

Way over priced

Katherine D.

Great area, a lot of things to do, wonderful staff.

R. C.

Had spa day no snow to cross country???????????? BLESSINGS????

Riley C.

Always a fun trip

Asriel H.

Amazing

Mattie W.

Great ski resort.

Mark E.

Snow has arrived!

Anna M.

Friendly staff. Fun times in every season. There’s so much to do; I recommend hiking the art park, snowboarding, & the alpine slide.

Garrett A.

They have way expensive prices for pizza

Maverick W.

Good skiing

David M.

Amazing place to ski or even just to visit for the views. Take a ride to see Mt Rainier in the distance. Very remote/relaxing as you will struggle to have cell service. (In a good way). Plenty of eating options too.

Edwin H.

Very nice family oriented place. Would be a great place to learn snowboarding or skiing.

Ying L.

Small but cute. Price were reasonable. Very good to beginners.

Mike G.

Good place to take the kids, not much elevation, but a good teaching hill

Dani B.

Great place to snowboard & ski regardless of age & ability. I love to ride here! Plenty of tree runs, terrain parks & a good variation of slopes. The resort is beautiful! Especially the newer area! Rooms for any size group & ideally face & give you a view of the mountain, ice rink, spa etc. Really friendly staff & honestly the cutest the little neighborhood I've ever seen at a MI ski/snowboard resort w/inviting locals. You will never not have something to do here. Great for the whole family!

Kevin Z.

If you want to spend 6 hours in standstill traffic, go there.

Yupeng L.

Don’t go there on a weekend day! No parking!

Remus C.

Kid’s park was perfect for my daughter’s practice. Open at night too, kids under 7 ski for free. Overall, very nice experience. The blue, black slopes were interesting as well. I would return to ski at Crystal Mtn

Don D.

Great conditions. Great time.

Langston C.

Very good

Matthew S.

Never been to a ski resort without a single fire, indoor or outdoor. The blues are easy and the easy are bunny.

Gilles P.

(Translated by Google) Charming resort on a human scale, very well maintained snow, short slopes and lovely staff. (Original) Station charmante à dimension humaine, neige très bien entretenue, pistes courtes et personnel adorable.

Jon P.

Great resort. Very nice amenities. Snapped my snowboard strap on my personal board, and repair didn't have part but sent me to shop upstairs and they had me back on the mountain in 20 minutes. Could have ruined the trip, but Crystal mountain was prepared to get me back out there. Mountain is great for the midwest and has all kinds of different levels of slopes to offer.

John J.

Smart resort, bt very great..

Sandy M.

Fantastic

Jeffery L.

Beautiful setting. Was there to see torchlight ski parade scheduled for 10 PM. Got there 5 minutes ahead and found event had already been finished. Who starts an event before the scheduled time? Very disappointed.

Ruthann T.

A great place to go and relax do the pool and hot tub. They use salt in there pools. Which is really nice.

Robert B.

Great day on the slopes!

Jamie R.

this is place is good

Beatrix

The snow was really bad today. Not entirely under their control. Global warming and all . But I did not feel like I could enjoy skiing. So I asked for voucher they gave me one. I will be back! Thank you

Anthony R.

Not much snow so far this year. Great lodging.

Deana C.

Excellent place to ski! We really enjoyed our day!

Alec H.

Awesome views and excellent skiing! Fun hiking in the summer too!

Juli S.

Nice place. We usually ski Boyne Mountain, but Crystal has some nice amenities. Their rental area is very efficient, but their prices are steep. Its $125 for a one day lift/ski rental pkg for an adult and $104 for kids under 17.

Lumberjacks D.

We had an amazing time. Great skiing, downhill and cross country, we will return.

Matthew V.

Amazing ski resort with a wide variety of challenging trails for beginners, advanced skiers and everyone in between. Had a great time and will definitely be back!!!

Tripadvisor R.

I took my teenage daughters skiing here for a mid week getaway. We were here during the week before Christmas, so it wasn't their busy season. We went during the week and got really good rates. We stayed in a two bedroom condo in Wintergreen. The condo was nice, had everything that we needed. It was clean and updated. It was a short walk to the nearest ski lift. We were very close to the outdoor hot tub. I really enjoyed this trip. Crystal Mountain is my favorite ski resort in this area. They have a lot of different runs and plenty for everyone to do. We will definitely be back.

Dae H.

Staff was amazing

Ruwaida D.

Very resort but check in time sucks

Gaby L.

the room was great. however the staff was anything but pleasant. the ski patrol and rentals didn’t seem to have any compassion for anyone who came in looking to get serviced. all of them seemed to be in a rush to do something better than be there. they also ran out of equipment and didn’t seem in a hurry to find any for anyone.

Mark K.

Beautiful lodge, beautiful scenery, restaurants are good and the staff's friendly and attentive. We enjoyed our weekend.

James T.

The ski hill rating system is kinda off, and there prices are rather high for what you get, but it's fun, and there friendly.

Matt

Great powder. Great people. 1 hour wait to rent equipment. Busy weekend but good.

Stacie L.

I started skiing at Crystal when I was 4 and have come back ever since. It's upgraded a lot in over 20 years (obviously!) but it's still one of my favorite spots to ski. The terrain is super diverse and challenging. The runs are long, so you aren't spending your whole day in line... well maybe on a Saturday :)

Joe K.

Good family friendly ski resort. Skiing, pool, ice skating, spa. A little for everyone!

Drew T.

Nice and friendly staff always helpful but it's a bit pricey in the lounge three candy bars cost 8 dollers

Joe K.

Awesome place all year round, great skiing, ice-skating and many more attractions

Brian O.

Great place to visit

William H.

Great ski resort and has freshies today

Matthew A.

We had an excellent time! Celan, fun and the staff was very helpful. Will be back soon!

Rachel A.

Super upsetting first experience. Ordered tickets online last night for a day pass, got here this morning and checked in at rentals to get a snowboard and our lift tickets. We went straight to the lifts as any normal person does and only went down once. Little did we know (we were NEVER told by anyone) that the base camp doesn’t have running water and no food or bathrooms available due to circumstances. Asked guest services to exchange our day passes for a different day because my husband and I obviously can’t fully enjoy our time nor can I use the restrooms (they had overcrowded port-a-pottys). Overall super disappointed we couldn’t just leave and have tickets for another day when their “resort” is actually working properly. PS the trails aren’t even really groomed!

Jerry S.

Great place summer or winter

Narrowsbridge R.

Overall great ski resort. Lower score due to being somewhat pricey but MAINLY- if you’re gonna charge so much for food at least make it GOOD. It’s like the worst cafeteria food or stadium food at the highest prices. Suggest bringing your own food. They either need to lower the prices or get / make decent food. But when it snows and it’s fresh, the skiing/boarding is awesome!!

Felipe A.

Awesome

Terry R.

Great place and great people that work for you.

Garrett H.

I couldn't believe the good deals they had on lift tickets!! The staff was all super friendly and helpful. I was very happy with my first visit and will definitely be coming back.

Tammy W.

Skiing is awesome, parties are better

Bandana

Went snowboarding recently and it was all good. The only problem is that on their website they said they were open till 9pm but closed at 7.

Paul I.

Beautiful!!

Roxi T.

Love it beautiful great ski runs great place to have a drink or hang out.

Christine R.

Fantastic staff make you feel so at home.

Ralph R.

Stayed a couple of days and played golf. Great courses and the amenities are awesome.

Sue T.

The rooms were beautiful. The staff was very helpful and friendly

Jason R.

Love it here! We get season tickets every year! Worth it ????

Lance S.

All around nice place

Austin T.

Prices are amazing they offer military discounts and the slopes are awesome to go down would recommend this as a ski resort you visit.

Ron T.

Nice atmosphere.

When Stuff B.

Absolutely love crystal mountain. They do a great job at grooming and beautifying the grounds.

Le Y.

Awesome .

Zachary K.

I stayed at ski-n-tee. Loved it and would recommend.

La Dolce V.

Love the experience except for the Thanksgiving dinner a hit and a miss with the food.

Adarsh T.

Had so much fun with my family and friends.

Thomas M.

Had a great time at the resort. There are tons of daily activities for adults and kids. Quiet time begins at 23:00. A little expensive but worth every penny.

Sara B.

We were here for the leaf peeping. Beautiful views!

Dave B.

Good pool

Rick E.

Expensive but worth the plans.

Alex O.

We loved this place for a weekend getaway. Peaceful lodging, the spa was incredibly relaxing, and great dining options! Will be back with the whole family next time.

Scott T.

I want to go back!!!

The Man, The Myth, The Legend L.

Great place lots of cool activities just very pricy to do them

K H.

Nice place to visit

Natashia B.

There are some amazing people that work here and will go above and beyond!!!

Kathy L.

Hey it is where I work!! Love it...

Ellen B.

Early opening day. My grandson skiied all day for $10. Lunch at the cafe was delicious!

Robert S.

Love this place, it's my favorite local mountain and I can't wait to ride. I've been riding here since I was a kid and im partial to this over Snoqualmie, with the exception of Alpental. Back when Booth Creek owned The Summit, it's parks were phenomenal. Now Crystal has been holding it down! I was impressed with all the improvements made to the terrain parks. Plus they have WAY more terrain. It's a nice place to begin, advance or explore. Plus the Gondola is a nice touch to warm up on cold and damp days. Only downside is parking.

Terese M.

We went up with our grown kids and 19 month old grandson during one of the Halloween/Fall Spooktacular. So much fun! Lots to do. Our grandson loved carving pumpkins, (actually squeezing the guts in his hands), petting/feeding animals at the petting zoo they had set up, . He loves horses and they had horse drawn wagon rides. We rented a 3 bedroom cottage which was very nicely appointed.

Herbal W.

Great skiing place, great runs for lower Mi. The lifts are fairly quick, food was reasonably priced. Nice staff and amenities. Beautiful scenery throughout, most runs were easy going.

Jodi F.

Haunted trail was good fun

Kelly B.

I have only been to Crystal Mountain for an event but it was well done with a great staff, locale and food!

Scott S.

Stayed there on a color tour. The main lodge is state of the art. Heated bathroom floor, heated towel rack, shower and tub. Very comfortable bed. Ate at the Thistle restaurant on site. Excellent meal.

The D.

The best saunas. Awesome teas!

Samuel L.

Neat

Jack D.

This place very fun. If you have never been on a gondola, this is a good place to go for views if you like that sort of thing. Skiing is why i go. The terrain there is so fun especially when the conditions are good. Crystal mountain is good for beginers to advanced to expert skiiers and snowboarders. Go you will not regret it!

Jason H.

Haunted trail is pretty good.

Brittany B.

We love Crystal Mountain! A big part of that is being able to bring our dog. The staff here is amazing—always so kind and going out of their way to talk to you and see how your stay is. Beautiful, updated rooms and a beautiful property. We love the “small campus” feel with everything you might need at your fingertips (market, restaurants, bars, ice rinks, fire pits, etc.). When we need a quiet weekend getaway, Crystal Mountain is always our choice.

Jeffrey C.

Crystal Mountain always has a number of seasonal activities and events. This trip was to ride the ski lift while checking out the fall colors, as well as taking a luge ride down the hill. Fun for all!

Bala A (.

A nice place to visit, but only nice when it's very warm or when there is a lot of snow accumulated. Not recommended in Fall, unless you are viewing the trees, which are quite exquisite from the top.

Carrie P.

The luge is so much fun! I'm a 41 yr old mom, and I wished we had stayed all day! The luges are kind of compact, though. My son is 6'3" and thin. He barely managed to fit in it. Tall folks who aren't so thin, maybe try it before you pay for the all day pass. Next year we'll absolutely make a day of it, as we were passing through for a bit of fun, and a bite to eat. They area had lots to do.

Sam C.

Beautiful and the Alpine Slide can be great fun. Make sure your sled works properly. It should move with very little movement forward.

Candie L.

Nice resort campus. Was there for a conference. I will say that the 5pm check-in time is pretty irritating, though. I'd have thought that since they were hosting a large conference, they could have made arrangements for attendees to check in a bit earlier so that they could freshen up before having to register for the event at 5, especially after a long car trip. Maybe next year they could try to make it so that the rooms reserved for conference goers could be prepared perhaps an hour ahead of time, especially since those rooms were specifically designated for the conference. But other than that, everything else was quite lovely. Our room was very clean and the view was charming. Oh--and maybe if they could NOT mow the golf course lawn at 7 am while people were still sleeping, that would be great, too. Otherwise, like I said, very nice.

Sally P.

Very nice resort... small mountain... sorry, I'm from Colorado...

Geoff S.

The service and facilities were excellent!

Joyce P.

Great place to stay. Room was fantastic. Lots to do on the property.

Amanda W.

An amazing place to stay and recharge, everything is clean and comfortable! Awesome staff and they have a few restaurants (which can be a little pricey) as well! 11/10 ????????????

Mike F.

Always great service, both golf courses in great shape! Highly recommended!!!

Kathy B.

Very relaxing.

Al R.

Super nice location and accommodation

Ellie N.

I work here and love it! Clean, pretty and lots to see and do. Even for their employees.

Our cottage was clean and comfy. Close to everything. Beautiful.

Justin J.

No coolers. Not even if you're buying.

Andrew G.

Came out here for a company outing and they accommodated about 40 of us. We spent the week here and had an a great time.

Jeri Lynn K.

Juat did the alpine slide but staff was AWESOME. Jessica Michelle and sherry!! Customer Service excellence!!

Jeff P.

Fantastic place! Any season. I have been there for 3 seasons (not spring). Staff is pretty good to very good. If you're gonna eat at the Thisle ask for Kelli!

Stephen D.

I visited here for a 3 day conference in the early fall. I stayed in the colonial lodge. Rooms are spacious, warm and comfortable. Walls are thin so it is quite noisy. The grounds and well taken care of and it is nice to walk around. The rooms for the meetings were excellent. The food offered during the event was very high quality. The hotel catering did a consistent good job. I would definitely come here again.

Paul K.

The Staff is great! The course is awesome. Heck of a place for skiings. Nichol this lady who tends the outdoor cafe made my day she stuck out in my mind. I would recommend this facility her family time or a romantic weekend. What a beautiful setting

Cheryl T.

Friendly modern and very clen

Mariush G.

Winters have to be awesome there!

Lee T.

Really cool village. The food was excellent. My only criticism is that the golf course wasn't quite what I expected. It was good but up north we probably expect too much.

Joshua P.

Alpine Slide was fun, $18 for two people, one ride. The Inn was a great stay with a nice , clean room. Everything is a little pricey here, but that's to be expected at a ski resort.

Lynne L.

B E A U T I F U L ! We WILL b back!

Sandy M.

Beautiful place.

Gus G.

Absolutely a beautiful place and wonderful staff

Shari H.

Beautiful views

Matthew K.

The views are fantastic and the Mountain course was beautiful and challenging.

Keaton D.

Lots of summer things to do, maybe add an arcade or something for rainy days

Kyle G.

Lots of great terrain and amazing views

Kevin B.

Very nice place, enjoyed the Alpine Slide and the pool area. We'll be back

Jennifer G. (Enderbot P.

Great stay with our two kids (5 & 9). Loved alpine slide, pathways for scooters, indoor pool, overall service, and beautiful surroundings including gardens. Our least favorite was our room at Crystal Colony. Great location and good daily maid service but the room was dark and dated. The building and our room is in serious need of updating and redecorating.

Jay J.

Tons of fun. Super sandy.

Matt F.

Relaxing summer resort experience

Rose E.

Great but super busy today

Middleagemaniac

Alpine sled the only one in mi.

Matthew P.

Started our day at the adventure office and the ladies in the office were phenomenal. From there we went to the alpine slide and the gentlemen that runs that attraction was super friendly and helpful. Ian that the rock was was extremely kind and was great with our 3 and 6 year olds. The food at the pub was pretty good too. I would highly recommend this place for any family. We loved every bit of it and we can’t wait to go back in the winter. Thank you Crystal Mountain for such a great and wonderful time.

Marti L.

Absolutely gorgeous year round resort! The suites and each building are impeccably maintained. Staff are friendly and helpful. The spa is relaxing and offers many very reasonably priced services. You can pay a day pass ($30 each adult) to use the hot tub and various amenities in the spa (not services). There are two great fire pit areas but seating is limited. A number of restaurants offering different foods. This resort DEFINITELY caters to families and children. There are so many fun activities that they can do it is a child's paradise. There is an amazing golf course and great bike trails. It is unfortunate that the "free" hot tubs allow children in them which is a deterrent for us. When we checked out the outdoor hot tub the water was murky and there was a family with 3 kids (one in a diaper) in it. Yuck!

Tyler S.

Great golf courses

Eric S.

Did the Alpine Slide. A little pricey, wish it was by the hour but we had a blast! Great staff there too. ?????

Kevin W.

Fun is all I can say

Kelly R.

Amazing family vacation! So much to do!!

Don Sherman (.

Nice family friendly atmosphere. Not a great location for a bachelor party if you are looking for a lot of nightlight, bars close early. Dont challenge me on the bobsled, no one can touch me. Pretty solid food at the main restaurant, but better options in town, imo.

Sender S.

Our family was here for a couple hours as a day guest. We purchased the 20 punch card & we had a great time on the alpine slides & the ropes course. The staff here is very friendly!!

Jon A.

Nice place for a family get away.

Autumn K.

Awesome place to relax for the evening

Melissa S.

Very nice well kept place. The moutntain bike trails aren't the best, but their not bad for a $20 lift ticket.

William M.

Great food and service

Valerie H.

We did the slide as a part of a Birthday celebration. What an adventure! So fun and worth going there for. I did slide too far over on a curve and lost some skin. Definitely recommend capris or jeans (something to protect your knees) and 3/4 length or long sleeved shirt to protect elbows.

Kevin B.

If visting in the summer, take friends, eat at bottom and have drinks at the top (not the opposite). Views are one of a kind..beware the chipmonk bandits!

Tom M.

Beautiful upscale resort with plenty of fine dining, beautifully landscaped grounds and countless activities and amenities.

Tracy D.

We had the best time!! Great venue and great employees!

John M.

World class resort. Beautiful setting. Wonderful Staff. Highly recommend

Deepthi R.

I visited this place with my husband during a weekend in the month of August. We reached the place at around 5pm on a Saturday. Thankfully the gondola rides are open till 8pm on weekends and hence we took two tickets and joined the folks who were waiting to take the ride. The gondola ride was smooth and the view throughout the ride was beautiful on that sunny summer evening. After reaching the view point, one can see the mesmerising view of Mt. Rainier across what seemed like a small stream. You can do a bit of hiking if interested. There are a few benches put up at the top. In a nutshell, it’s a great place to just chill out amidst nature.

Dan K.

Great ski resort, great wedding venue, great spa. Nice

Stephanie R.

1. Things to do: Crystal Mountain offers a variety of activities for families. Examples: The waterpark, aimed mostly for children with a playground in about 2 feet of water, includes a small slide and other little things. There is also a sandy area with a jungle gym and various sand toys to play with. The rock wall is also fun for kids 5+. The employees were very helpful and encouraging with our child who was nervous. We didn't get to check out the obstacle course with the zip line, but your child has to be at least 52 in to do it by themselves, or they require an adult to go up there too. The resort also has scheduled activities throughout each day, such as face painting, hair wraps, build-a-buddy (similar to build-a-bear), etc. Each come at a cost of at least $7 per child. Ski lift rides are available only two days a week, (wish it were every day, my kids loved it!) and then you can visit a bar area at the top, then ride back down the hill. The outdoor slide was something fun and enjoyable since you control the speed of your sled. We were able to ride down with both of our younger children (you can share a sled). They offer other activities listed on their website as well, we just didn't have enough time to check it all out. The restaurants: This is one area where I believe the resort can improve upon. They only offer two major restaurants to choose from, and a small pizza joint with salads and subs as well. In my opinion, both restaurants were lacking in choices. The Wild Tomato was alright, but every other dish has mushrooms on it (and for someone who doesn't like mushrooms, you're out of luck). I'm not sure what the other restaurant was called (had an Irish theme to it) but it was probably the best. Sitting outside in the summer offers beautiful views of the ski hills. The spa: Rated as one of the top spas in the nation, I really enjoyed my experience here. The prices are insanely high, but it was definitely an experience. I tried a facial and scalp massage with Katarina (she was very professional and knowledgeable about skin care), and it was wonderful and relaxing. Afterwards, you can sip on really expensive organic tea or jump into the jacuzzi for more relaxation. I highly suggest pampering yourself if you have the time. Childcare: Crystal Mountain does have childcare available only three days a week. $60 per child for a whole day (9a-4p). They provided meals and snacks, and of course the entertainment. It was nice for our kids to have some fun while we relaxed at the spa. They went to the waterpark with the childcare workers and had a ton of fun. Overall, highly recommend this opportunity if available during your stay. Other things: they have a small market you can buy food, drinks, gifts, etc. The prices really aren't too bad for being at a resort, and we frequented this place the most. The rooftop bar above the market (open at 4p) is a great place to order drinks and listen to live music when available. Great views from this bar as well. Overall, we enjoyed our experience at Crystal Mountain. I will say, we live in Ann Arbor and are used to cultural diversity, and that's the one thing that this resort lacks. I know that they can't help who stays there though. Keep this in mind. This resort is very clean and always kept up. The flowers in the summer are beautiful, and the employees were helpful and friendly.

Michael Lambert (.

One of my favorite year around resorts. Mnt. biking, Golf, and Alpine slide in the summer. Nordic and Alpine skiing in the Winter. Nice hotel and condo's.

Nick C.

Great place for the family. They have everything you need to be comfortable. Make sure you don't leave your debit card at home, you'll need your dollars if you want an adut drink. The pool is a great place to relax with the fantastic lifeguard crew!

Been coming here for over 5 years.. just drove 5 hours with 4 kids.. only to enter a check in lobby with minimum 20 people/min 40 min wait . WE PAY over A GRAND A NIGHT FOR A GRAND WELCOMING...??????????????????????Also , I can’t review anything else bec iv only week the LOBBY! It’s uncalled for. However, if they compensate for the trouble I would normally give them 5 ????’s!

Jane J.

Great resort! Lovely area in northern Michigan!

Erik H.

Inside Crystal Mountain, evil takes its form.

Jc S.

Very nice rooms with lots to do for kids. Will be back again.

Crazy Sage L.

Very nice people

Jerry B.

Beautiful. Professional friendly staff , food at restaurants were very tasty will revisit.

Josh S.

Nice but difficult golf course

Carolyn H.

We found this gem after being up north at my parents house for years! We only had time for the slide, but oh my goodness it was a blast! We posted our videos and now other family members and friends want to visit. We will definitely return for more fun. I highly recommend this place. Note to visitors: they do offer a site with a great coupon where you buy one ticket, get one free! And it's faster if you fill out and sign your waiver on line before you arrive. Enjoy! We did.

Patrick T.

Had a great time riding the Alpine slide. Beautiful scenery at the top of the hill. Operators were very friendly and entertaining. It's a must do for restless children when you're in the area. Several other activities are available on site which we didn't have time to check out, unfortunately. Be back as soon as we can to check out what we missed.

Lisa P.

Had a blast at an association conference.

Robert W.

Beautiful place with stunning scenery. Tins to do and see. Or just kick back and relax. You gotta stop you won't be sorry!!!

Sandy H.

Lunch was good. Golfed 9 holes after. Really reasonable on Ladies Day (Tuesday). $19 for 9 with cart. Course was in very good shape. Staff was very friendly.

David C.

Beautiful, you have to see to appreciate

Lisa N.

Nice place to see the fireworks...and sunsets.

Raymond A.

Relaxing and beautiful

Wyatt M.

Excellent golf course, had a great time in a beautiful day.

Pat F.

Fantastic!!

Priscilla L.

The Thistle restaurant has great food.

Michael O.

golf courses it super conditions

David L.

Nice resort, family friendly, professional staff. Played the Betsie River course, great shape, scenic and challenging. Lots to do here for all members of the family.

Nancy C.

Perfect wedding venue

James A.

Had a great time today, the slide, ropes and climbing.... rude customer service at the end of the day, which was unfortunate.

T.

Awesome slope plenty to do

Ken R.

Great and well maintained that something for everyone young and old.

Darby T.

Lots to do and I imagine it's a great place in the winter. Their Alpine Slide is affordable, fun, and gives some amazing views on the ride down. You control how fast you go so enjoy the scenic ride or zip to the end! Be sure to go on a day that's less likely to have rain (or periodic showers) as they don't provide refunds once tickets are purchased (went on a rainy-ish day but we had no problem waiting for the shower to stop). Don't forget to look behind you on the ski/chair lift as that's got a great view too!

Daryl B.

Nice course.

Lisa B.

So much fun.

Ben A.

Love it

Henry W.

We played 9 holes on the 'Mountain Course". It's a very pretty, typical Northern Michigan course. Lots of heavy forest lines the fairways, so slices & hooks wind up in golf ball heaven. Very picturesque. Not a lot of water hazards. Course was in great condition. Lots of attitude changes, consistent with it being a "mountain" course. Friendly personnel. Reasonable green fees ($50, including cart, on Manic Monday).

Dewayne S.

Ok

Michael T.

This place is awesome and they know it, which is why they charge so much.

Cranku T.

Great accommodations Patriots colts in families great golf courses funneh play on.

Jim N.

Alpine slide was not much fun for me. I had to push really hard on the handle to make the slide go foreword. I thought the thing must be broken but when I brought this up with the attendant he just said how hard you have to push to make the sled move depends on your weight. To much work for me to slide down a hill.

O K.

Best place to visit ????

Dave And Jenea P.

Great place

Tracie L.

My family and I came here for the alpine slide. Our 3 and 5 year old was nervous about the car lift but after the 3rd ride up, they were pros! The price was good since our kids rode with us free. Great facility!

P J.

Great place. Slide was insanely slow. Left with lots of unused tickets sadly. Wish we knew ahead each time would take about 2.5 minutes per rider up there for a 1.1 minute ride....

Chase C.

Went here for the views. Only went in summer. Bring a sweater or jacket. Lift tickets a bit pricey when you’re just going to the top for a little bit. Perhaps have lunch at the restaurant or bring lunch to make it more worth it. Decent customer service and good sandwiches at the cafe down at the bottom.

Mckenzie H.

Kids loved the pool....

Michael K.

Great place any time of year.

Jon R.

Best Family resort in Michigan! Always a great time no matter the season!

Brittany B.

My family and I were very excited for this getaway. Online the pictures of the resort and sceanery were beautiful and we were so excited to try all the activities. When we arrived everything was exactly as pictured.. but we soon realized that things were a lot different than we thought. I have a mixed race family and two beautiful mixed children. Everywhere we went in the resort we were starred down by white families. We were the only mixed family I saw during our 3 day stay, and to say that we were uncomfortable and unable to enjoy our vacation is an understatement. My husband was so uncomfortable after the first day that he wouldn't even leave the room or participate in any activities the rest of our stay. That is how bad it was. When your guests do not feel comfortable to walk out of the room that they paid for, that they took time off of work to enjoy because the vibe of the resort is so bad, that is a problem. I have never seen him in a situation like this and it broke my heart. My husband planned this trip for us as a suprise and he is such a good person and gets along with everyone.. literally EVERYONE. He is such a people person, and he of all people was so uncomfortable he would not leave the room. I tried to take the kids to the pool, so that they could have some fun. We were starred at while at the pool by white women, they would look at me and then look at my kids and back at me. No kids would engage with my son who is 9 and wanted to play with other kids. We stayed at the pool about 15 mins before we left and never went back. Very, very, very few people even spoke to us in passing or on elevator rides during our stay. And the stares were so unsetteling. I don't believe this is the resorts fault, all the resort staff we interacted with minus two employees were very nice and friendly.. however, It is important for me to leave this review to help out another family down the road. We spent well over $1000 on our stay here and it was the most miserable vacation my family and I have ever had. We stayed in our room until it was time to checkout and then salvaged our trip by extending our vacation and going to Great Wolf Lodge in Traverse City. I would not reccommened this place at all for mixed race families. Please do not waste your money like we did, I would definitly reccommed Great Wolf Lodge, we have stayed there many times and it is always amazing and full of all kinds of beautiful people. I hope this helps someone else, don't make the same mistake we did.

John L.

Friendly staff. Tons of fun

Brian R.

I have snow skied and played golf here. Both activities A+. The course is playable and the greens are fantastic. Great staff and food.

Dl T.

Great golfing!

Robert K.

Its a great place to visit in the winter if you like snowboarding and skiing, as well as snow shoeing. There is a spa and exercise area. And during the summer they have an Alpine slide, paintball, hiking trails, golf, an outdoor waterpark, and their staff is friendly. The food is good and you get good service at the restaurants they have there.

Matt D.

Terrific July 3rd fun day for families - great fireworks!

Linda O.

Fun place to bring your family

Ryan H.

Alpine coaster is awesome for all ages. Go as fast or slow as you want. Fast carts are more than enough to keep any adrenaline junky entertained . Staff is fun and helpful. Do the all day pass, one time is not enough. Don’t scare the little kids to death on the first run.

Ali B.

Very good place.

Melissa D.

The Alpine Slide was definitely fun!!

Michael S.

Very relaxing getaway.

Damon D.

The cart thing is cool. It's expensive though

Matthew R.

Food bad expensive

Adam K.

Super nice resort, friendly staff, the slide thing was fun and seemed like it was mainly to enjoy the view

Jared M.

A wonderful place to relax and get a massage! The alpine slide wad a blast

Ana M.

Extraordinary

Michael B.

It's difficult to find a comparison when it comes to an all seasons resort. Crystal has it all. I've been going to Crystal at least once a year for almost two decades. 2 excellent golf courses, excellent spa/pool facilities, additional activities that are family-friendly. And they are extremely competitive when it comes to price.

Randy H.

Liked it

Andrew F.

It's a nice place but over priced on some activities and currently desperately in need of some landscape maintenance in a few areas.

Alan C.

Spent a few hours doing the Crystal coaster, and the adventure course. The staff could not have been nicer. What a great way to spend a summer day.

Doug F.

Friendly staff, lots of family fun in the summer!

Mark P.

This resort is really nice. There’s just about something for everyone & just about 25min drive to very unique places. This was our first time here for a work event & despite the 4 1/2hr drive, it was very enjoyable. The beds & rooms were very comfortable as well. We’ll be back.

Emma G.

Awesome place to visit

Mark L.

Really nice facilities, golfing and rental homes!

Robert M.

Best Midwest skiing

Clarissa T.

Something for everyone. Nature, spa, indoor amenities, plenty of places outdoor to make it feel like a village park and plenty of dining choices. Tons of stuff to do all year round.

David M.

Outstanding family resort

Keith S.

Let me first say, our group goes on a golf trip every year with 10-12 people for 3+ days. We book months in advance and this year, our communication with the office staff was the best it has ever been. Our lodging was a block from the clubhouse and had everything we needed. It was convenient, clean, and more than spacious enough for the 12 of us. Those two factors aside, our experience went completely downhill starting in the clubhouse at checkin for the first of our 6 rounds of golf. -I asked the gentleman working in the golf shop if we needed tokens or anything for range balls. Our group was playing under an unlimited golf package all weekend which included complimentary range use. The guy gave me a deadpan stare and told me that we were good and to go up to the range. We drive 5 minutes up to the range to find out we were supposed to get a code for the range balls. We ended up having to spend extra money for a complimentary service without apology or care from the golf staff. FYI, they messed this up the ensuing 5 rounds as well-STRIKE 1 -During our first round on Thursday, on 15th hole at Mountain Ridge, our lead foursome group was driven up on by a ranger who had been hawk eyeing us all day. One of our foursome had lost his tee ball and had spent about 3-4 minutes looking for his ball. When we teed off on the hole, the group ahead was still on the green. While we searched for the ball, they had cleared the green. The ranger drives up to our cart while my partner is addressing his ball and tells us to get going. We politely replied that the group ahead had just cleared the green and we were getting going. He continued to be rude, disruptive, and drove off without saying anything after pushed back on the fact we were not holding any other group up. This behavior from their rangers and starters continued the rest of the weekend and was the rudest display of hospitality from on course staff I have ever witnessed-STRIKE 2 -The staff as a whole was unwelcoming and generally seemed like we were somehow ruining their day. I wish I could have counted the amount of stares and non replies I received when waving and saying hello to any staff we saw. The closest thing I received to what could have been considered a response was when the beverage cart employee slowly rode by my cart and gave it the grand inquisition only to realize I had actually spent almost $50 on a six pack of beer; then and only then did she wave before moving on to the next cart. I certainly do not expect anyone to kiss my a**, but a smile or thank you for spending $500+ and choosing their resort would seem to be in line-STRIKE 3

Nic M.

Fun place utter beauty great staff. Love

Toadnurse

Only here for bike benzie

Matt D.

Fun for the whole family

Jon P.

Food could be better. Buy from Sysco.

Shanan T.

Very nice, but I bet it's pricey to be a member

John S.

Crystal owns a good place to go to enjoy yourself have a nice beat and housing so enjoy everybody

Mark G.

This course is over packed groups in front of us were over served with liquor throwing up on the course 15 to 20 minutes per hole waiting time even watched a beer cart girl crash the car into the trees......... that being said the course itself was beautiful

David B.

Not RV friendly

P I.

The host, hostess, and bartenders seem snooty and disinterested in customer service and communication. You walk in, or sit at the bar, they just walk over and look at you. You are expected to initiate the conversation. Next time you visit, just stare back. After several uncomfortable seconds and confused looks they'll eventually say "two for dinner?" Or "what can I get you?" It has become a little game for us when we go there now. We always make them talk first and almost every time it is the same long uncomfortable silence, followed by momentary confusion, before they finally welcome us. Give it a try yourself; walk in, smile, say nothing...see if you have the same experience. For us we see this a lot with the younger generation no matter where we are, but this place has done each visit.

Gary R.

Nice place for a wedding reception. Easy access to outside cocktails, and very pleasant bartenders.

One million things to do. Or do nothing but relax. What a great place!

Hannah B.

Great People and customer sevice. Love the slopes. Thanks Crystal Mountain

Joe A.

It was absolutely fabulously! The scenery the staff the food was all great. Not to mention the room accomodations.

Ken Keillor I.

Was at the beer and brat festival, will go again

Andrew P.

Very nice!

Andrew C.

took a day trip to the Crystal Mountain Spa - what an operation they have there! world-class amenities with a dry sauna, steam room, relaxation area with refreshments, and an outdoor hot tub exclusive to the spa area. INSIDER TIP - if you book a service at the spa, you have access to the spa area for the entire day! you can leave, have lunch, play some golf, hit the slopes, and come back and enjoy the amenities. this next-level experience keeps us coming back time and time again.

Charlie M.

Great restaurants, lots of activities (indoors and outdoors) and reasonable prices. Highly recommend!

A Y.

Had a great time with kids! They had a blast, staff were great and ground well kept

Mel

Amazing go almost every time I'm here,always a nice treat from my sister michelle????

David J.

Very Comfortable stay between time on the river. The food and adult beverages at the resort were wonderful.

Vanessa L.

Went to the Spa Days. Lovely spa! Very clean, friendly staff and amazing services.

Ann T.

Spa days are the best! Fantastic guest service from everyone!

Matt P.

I love this resort! The skiing experience is pretty good considering the mountain isn't very big and the runs aren't very long. But it is very well maintained and staffed. There is usually some kind of entertainment on the upper floor of the main lodge. The golf is definitely one of the best values I've seen in the state. Courses are maintained meticulously, very rarely is there something out of place. The pro shop and pub are great and the staff is always very helpful and polite. Haven't tried the mountain biking or water slides but I've heard great things.

Shawn R.

We absolutely love crystal mountain! There's so many family events, its never a dull moment.

Beverley F.

crystal mountain is a great place to be

Donald N.

A great place to ski for the whole family

Idylhours

Good fun

Beth C.

Good service great food.

Andria S.

Very nice service and people. A classic little getaway.

Coby

(Translated by Google) The hotel is very different in quality. But all in all good. Unfortunately, breakfast is not included in the price. Parking super easy at the house. The shop is overpriced and the quality needs to be improved significantly. The houses look like a belt from the outside. The ski slope is equipped with many cannons, there is no lack of snow. However, the slope is only for beginners and a very short descent. Lifts make it bearable. The Irish restaurant is good including a bar. Whoever comes here should take a house with family and friends It makes more fun. The spa is ok, overpriced and very crowded and restless. You can do it, but there is better. The nature in the area is great. (Original) Das Hotel ist in der Qualität sehr unterschiedlich. Aber alles in allem gut. Leider ist Frühstück nicht im Preis inbegriffen. Parken super easy am Haus. Der Shop ist überteuert und qualitativ muss er sich deutlich verbessern. Die Häuser sehen von aussen gurt aus. Der Skihang ist mit vielen Kanonen ausgestattet, Schneemangel ausgeschlossen. Allerdings ist der Hang nur etwas für Anfänger und sehr kurze Abfahrt. Lifts machen es erträglich. Das irische Restaurant ist gut inkl. Bar. Wer hierherkommt sollte mit Familie und Freunden ein Haus nehmen Macht mehr Spaß. Der Spa ist soweit ok, überteuert und sehr überlaufen und unruhig. Kann man machen, gibt aber besseres. Die Natur im Umfeld ist super.

Sheila P.

Nice swimming area.

Bobby M.

Best utilization of space at any resort around. Tree runs are the bees knees. Especially fun on Mardi Gras. Bar life could be a little bit better, but the mountains great

Jim M.

Played the Betsy Valley course and it was in outstanding condition for this time of year. Great staff and services.

David L.

Great spot!

Frederick C.

Amazing place to do skiing , my husband and me went to celebrate our anniversary, we paid for beginners class and was absolutely amazing , JADE the coach was súper kind and patient with us , I love this place I will do next year again

Julia W.

We always have a good time. There were some renovations and not much to do this time. It is between seasons though. They keep building. Can't wait, it is going to be even more awesome!

Stacylynn K.

Beautiful place. Lots to do and hotel was amazing!

Reid C.

Always a good time snowboarding here!

Stephanie R.

Thanks Nick for writing the awesome message in the snow and taking us for a ride in the groomer. Thanks for setting the fire up for us too. My birthday was a great time.

Thebikexpert1

Our Retreat was five star, but house keeping didn't do to well,beds look like someone had slept in them,two days in a row.

Tim B.

I took my 11 year old for some ice skating, the rink is really small, for the price I would have thought it would be a bit bigger! When we first got there we were the only ones on the ice, after maybe 10 minutes a larger group came out 5-6 people, we cut skating short because there was not enough room

Issy

Yee yee let's bomb Buck yall

Wes C.

Very good skiing for Michigan

Joe J.

Nice close vaca spot

Kaden S.

Always a very enjoyable experience here. The staff is nice and welcoming. There are plenty of trails for beginners, intermediate, and experts alike.

Gautham V L.

My first time experience. Very well maintained, good facilities for beginners and Learners.

Robert H.

Great time

Jacob Z.

Great spot to for a meeting!! Hopefully you have the opportunity to ski there!! Some of the best slops in the west part of Michigan!

Max A.

Good run quality, plenty of runs

Carly D.

Such a wonderful place.

Jennifer S.

Wonderful place to spend vacation!! Very friendly people wherever we went! So many great activities for families. We had a blast!! Only improvement would be housekeeping; not horrible but could have been better. We are definitely returning soon!

David D.

Good resort with many different runs. I went here as an amateur and there were many good runs that I was able to do! It was a fun day with a lot of snow even though it was already the end of March. Some runs were really icy but that’s mainly because the day before we went it was above freezing and froze over night. The prices are moderate too, for 2 lift tickets we paid $30 and my rental was $38!

Rachel H.

Best accommodations at a michigan ski hill. New grocery store is great! Stocked with lots of cool local products.

Vasily R.

Great mountain. Has a gondola and is great for experienced skiers.

Samantha R.

They have a lot to offer. Great family outing place.

Cynthia W.

Wonderful relaxing great massages facials hot tub , saunas Tama absolutely beautiful

Chris L.

From North surburb of Chicago to enjoy ski for kids and snowboard for myself and my wife there on Crystal Moutain during Spring break. We've stayed 3nights there in Hamlet whch was really nice clean updated room and bathroom. there was small kitchen with faucet, sink, refrig, microwave oven,dishes and toaster. there is small round table with 4 chairs !!!! Only one complain was the pillows which was really uncomfortable for 4 of us !!!! the best one of this ski resort is the slope is just a front or next to hotel. which was really convenient before/after ski. Just leaves ski/board gears in the locker(storage) on 1st floor. the slopes were kind of slushed afternoon on late of March with temperature over 35F but accaptable personally which is better than iced for skiing. there is no waiting line for lift and good for beginners as well. Crystal Market was good and you can buy something like normal stores near home but pricy. Really recommended for family ski in winter !!! I will revisit some day of Summer later.

Michael B.

Nice for novice skiers and kids.

Chris J.

We did late season skiing at the end of March. There was still plenty of base. One lift and a couple of runs were closed. After skiing, we played laser tag and used their fat tire bikes. The on site grocery store was well stocked and reasonable. Great place for a quick get away.

Lynda M.

Prices a little high but great ski resort

Lucid C.

Crystal Mountain is the best Ski Resort in Michigan!

Lori D.

Stayed onsite, friendly staff, fun snowboard instructor, lots of activities!

Riley K.

Skiing is nice and the prices are good. Fisher is awesome!

Poetic J.

Rooms in hotel portion feel as if they have not been decorated since the 70s.... I was a bit grossed out. the shower had globs of someone else's hair and after pulling out my lysol wipes and wiping down the place.... let's just say my wipes were black when I was done. after that I slept in ny clothes, showered in my shoes and counted down the days for us to leave. oh yeah... THERE IS NO ELEVATOR lodge hotel area, so if you are on the upper floors be prepared to walk! the young people working in the ski rental section... where you get your boots were rude as hell! one girl was screaming at a child (there was a kids ski club from a school there) so badly that I had to intervene. the country store onsite was nice, the ski slopes themselves were amazing. The conference center we used was nice as well....

Dave S.

Great Michigan ski resort. Nice facilities and rentals. Slopes well groomed and lots of base.

Vexion

This is my favorite place to go skiing the food is good no matter wher you go. The people are very friendly. This place caters to all ages. The rooms are very nice in both the old and new building.

Matthew M.

Hills were fun and usually in great condition. Best cust service in N Michigan. Lots of rooms and condos for rent, even ski in- ski out. Resort is year round with lots of stuff to do in the summer.

Janko C.

Great place to take your family. Clean rooms, great food and relaxing atmosphere.

Thomas H.

Great for the family

Anish N.

Great variety of slopes, especially for beginners.. however they have hidden charges when you buy a package. Charge extra for helmets and charge extra if you want to swap your board for skis

Samrat D.

Loved the place

Jim L.

Great timing. Upgrade to a massive condo and the forecasted reason ended up being snow. Typical late season crowds (none). Great time.

Lance T 2.

this mountain isn't made of real crystal what the heck man still finna epic though 5/5 ign

Benjamin L.

By golly it's expensive up here. But it's pretty. And has well groomed trails. And good staff. And excellent, excellent views. If you're not super big into skiing (and you probably aren't if you're reading this), grab your rentals at the base of the mountain in Eunemclaw to save some money.

Chaz L.

One of the best places to ski.

Mike H.

Best ski resort in the Seattle area. Great terrain, high speed lifts, gondola and more. Food food and beverage selections at various locations around then mountain. Great customer service. Gets Very Busy on winter weekends.

Medic L.

Pool was a great hit for my kids

David R.

One third of the resort is glades! I love skiing in the trees.

Brett H.

Great place for a small village feel. We enjoyed the skiing, talking around the fires, hot chocolate, and the store has some great finds. I would suggest if you want the amenities all within walking distance.

Tami C.

I have been up to Crystal Mountain twice this winter to take my family skiing and snowboarding. This resort has everything you could want for a wonderful family experience. From beginners to experienced skiiers. We stayed at the Hamlet the first time we came, as there were only 4 of us. It was a nice hotel room style. This last weekend we had the whole family...7 of us, so we stayed at the Kinlochen. It was a beautiful 3 bedroom 2 bath condo facing the slopes. It was absolutely amazing. Full kitchen and much more! The entire staff, all the way from the booking reservation staff, to Brian and Taryn in the ski shop at the lodge, went over and beyond to be as helpful and friendly as anyone could ask for!! I am generally not one to do reviews, but I felt it was necessary to let everyone know what a great place this is to come and ski for the day or stay for a long weekend as we did. Thank you Crystal Mountain for a family trip we won't forget!!! Tami Conley and family!

Brentb W.

Quaint village atmosphere. Plenty of outdoor activities to fill your day.

Annie M.

Excellent, awesome place. Great people.

Luther L.

Sharon K.

Beautiful resort! Lots of fun activities all year for the whole family.

Jose

Fun place to be. A lot of slopes to choose from. Recommend...

Joey B.

It was fabulous. Great skiing, great food and friendly people.

Mark P.

Absolutely excellent skiing for the area. Love it. Great night skiing prices although I wish day skiing got a bit cheaper at the end of the season.

Kurt S.

Great skiing. Best bang for the buck in Michigan.

Chad F.

Resort area was well maintained and the staff was incredibly friendly. We rented cross country skis and used several of the groomed trails that were available. Even on a busy day/weekend, I was impressed

Nathan B.

Good skiing, great rooms and activities. Price is good value for what you get. Will definitely be returning in the future

Mathew B.

Awesome place to get away

Naveed K.

It’s rare to see an easily accessible ski resort that’s family friendly and has the hotel room, the parking lot, the ski rental facility, AND the lift all within 100 feet of each other. This place is beautiful with plenty of runs and is very easy to get around. This is the best family friendly resort I’ve seen.

Andrea L.

A great place for people of all ages who enjoy winter sports such as snowboarding and skiing!! I would highly suggest a hot cocoa and Belgian sugar waffle at the outdoor walk-up waffle cabin!! YUMMMMM!!

Forrest P.

Great family fun, great staff and great food

Connor H.

Great place to ski I come up every year with Michigan adaptive sports they are always super helpful

Scott M.

Very underrated for up North Michigan skiing. Great resort, great mountain.

Robert B.

A little over priced for what it is, but what can you do.

Kathleen S.

Friendly staff

Becca A.

All the staff were incredibly kind and helpful. The DJ at the Vista Lounge Saturday afternoon was hilarious and very engaging - made a rainy afternoon way better than expected! The waffle cabin is adorable and makes some amazing waffles. Dinner at Thistle was wonderful! Can't wait to come back.

Kyler B.

This place is awesome you can ski/snowboard any time before 8pm

Victoria W.

Used to ski every weekend at Crystal Mountain. Perfect place !

Ernie D.

Great time, wonderful staff, thanks Crystal Mountain!

Hart M.

Enjoyed the NASTAR Midwest Regionals. Dinner at the Kinloch was good and the staff very attentive (they do not take reservations, however).

Char E.

Great slopes & Beautiful sights! We were there for Mid Winter Break....once arriving I was worried the crowd was going to make for long lines on the lifts. However between the 3 lifts in front, they didn't disappoint considering all the people they were shuffling. The slopes weren't over crowded either. Staff was always pleasant and helpful when needed.

Ann M.

Family friendly, with all the amenities you need!

Andrew J. W.

Great Midwestern Ski Resort - especially for the family! Tons of kids activities and a great pool. You can pay $10 for a day pass to the fitness center which includes pool access even if you are not staying at the Resort.

Craig W.

Fabulous condominiums, excellent slopes and grooming. Fun, fun fun

Paul D.

We always enjoy our time spent at crystal mountain. The service is great, the powder was perfect, and rooms are good

Erin C.

Ski instructors are patient and knowledgeable with both kids and adults. Thistle restaurant is delicious. Love the ski shop and the other boutiques. Our wintergreen condo was perfect, 2 bed, 2 bath. LOVE Crystal Mountain!!!!!! We have stayed here 4 years in a row

Gary M.

Day skiing with family. I think they do a nice job here. Hill is fun by midwestern standards. Lines were reasonable on what was probably one of the busiest days of the year. Food is good. Lodging is good too for a family weekend. I wish the lift tickets weren't so expensive.

Nicholas S.

Amazing place to ski, best place I have been too and decent price.

James M.

Crystal provides a great experience. While I prefer tree skiing I do enjoy many of the groomed runs. I try to arrive early as the grooming is fantastic. While there this time I was finding good off piste skiing off the back of the north face run near the powerline. Enjoy!!

J J.

Coming from California this Mountain is huge can't be done in one day.

M.e. Felton I.

Great place!

Jason S.

Lots of terrain options, lots of lifts, less crowded on the back side

Ryan

Ski rental process is awful and takes forever. Wasted almost 2 hours getting all the equipment just to stand in line for lift tickets. Awful

Shiva S.

Lovely place and awesome views from the top of the mountain

Bethany K.
