We snowshoed at Bear Notch three days ago and had an amazing experience. The trails were groomed to perfection and we were met by a staffer who was knowledgeable and attentive. We spent about three hours on the trails and really enjoyed the trails by the river. An added bonus was when we happened upon a moose, quietly munching on some local vegetation. We shoed quietly by and got some incredible photos. Just get out and experience the outdoors, folks. Getting your feet snowy is a great way to spend the day!

Smooth and gentle runs make this Stowe area mountain ideal for children and first-time skiers.

Could use a few more shops and restaurants on property but overall just a perfect hotel. Rooms are really REALLY pretty. The outdoor ice skating rink was magical. Very organized for a large hotel.

At the Trapp Family Lodge Outdoor Center the question isn’t what to do. The question is, where do you start? From sunrise to sunset, and in every season, there is an invigorating adventure or relaxing activity waiting for you at every turn. The Trapp Family Lodge is a 2,500 acre mecca for the outdoor and nature enthusiast. In the Winter there is cross country skiing, back country skiing and snowshoeing. In the Summer there is mountain biking, disc golf, hiking,Nordic walking and even concerts in our meadow. The lists go on and on for people of all ages!

6. Cannon Mountain
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 417 reviews
Reviewed By frugalm0m - Swarthmore, United States
While we live in the Philadelphia area, Cannon Mountain is our favorite place to ski. Most of our family learned to ski at Cannon, and we have been going there for more than 15 years. It is by far the friendliest ski resort, where ski instructors, lift operators, ambassadors and guest service staff will smile, say hello and remember you. The mountain offers trails for a range of skills, so everyone can find a place to ski. There are rarely any lines of any note for the lift. Be forewarned, it can be cold on the mountain (it is New Hampshire after all!) and sometimes icy. But a great day at Cannon is the best skiing ever.
7. Stowe Mountain Resort

A classic Vermont ski getaway, popular with families because of its excellent ski/snowboard school and child-friendly amenities.
Reviewed By bhink0506 - Medford, United States
Most people probably come here in Winter, but Stowe is as charming in Summer. The gondola ride to the (almost) top of the mountain is breathtaking, and the hiking trails from there are a lot of fun. Some are trails very treacherous, so be sure to wear proper shoes and be in proper shape to hike them. The views are wonderful. I highly recommend Stowe.

This Southern Vermont resort is famous for its winter skiing, and now for off-season golf.
Reviewed By gary1217 - Pomona, United States
Went in late March (not February) with wife and kids. Was nervous to go in the spring due to warm weather but the trip turned out to be spectacular. Spring skiing is amazing. No crowds at all and the warm weather was a plus! I put the kids in with a ski instructor and never having had a formal lesson myself, Brad, our instructor, recommended I join. Not only did he up my game, he had my 2 novice kids skiing in intermediate level blue trails during the first day! I couldn’t believe it. The second day was even better. He was great. I call Brad the Bob Ross of ski instructors! He has patience, is a bit philosophical, great sense of humor, is just fantastic with kids, full of similes so the kids can understand, and he can immediately pick out incorrect technique and show you how to correct it. Brad- thanks a million! On our last day we skied as a family. And a family that skis together - stays together!
9. Sunday River Ski Resort
Overall Ratings

Large resort complex for downhill skiing.
Reviewed By NewEnglandGoodLife
Sunday River offers so much fun year round for groups, couples, and families. They are perhaps best known for their skiing in the winter. They have, perhaps, the best snow making capabilities in the East, making visits here consistently great for skiing and riding. They have an expansive network of trails -- the only challenge is navigating across the peaks. If you are not careful, you could end up far away from where you are staying or are parked at the end of the day. Good news, though, is that they run shuttles to help you get around. We've begun to enjoy their adventures in other seasons. They offer downhill mountain biking, disc golf, hiking, ziplines, rock climbing, pony rides, and trampoline adventures during the summer and fall. Additionally, Sunday River hosts weekend festivals all year long. In the fall, we've enjoyed the fall festival with the Wife Carrying Competition and Cornhole Tournament. They often host live music at the South Ridge Lodge. Additionally, they often have fireworks, including on New Years' Eve. Our favorite on-mountain place to stay is at the Sunrise Condos, though we also highly recommend the Grand Summit. The Grand Summit offers breakfast at its Camp restaurant, which is a perfect start to your day of adventure.

Pico Peak is family-friendly and price-conscious.
Reviewed By travelsavvygal
LOVED Pico mountain- so friendly, chilled out and welcoming. Perfect for families. The scale of it was great - only one parking lot, you park and walk to the resort, there's a room to eat in if you bring your own lunch. All trails lead to the lodge so its simple for kids to navigate
