Ski Sawmill Family Resort
Overview
Ski Sawmill Family Resort is a small, independently operated ski area near Morris in north-central Pennsylvania. With a 515-foot vertical drop, a relaxed atmosphere, and comparatively affordable lift tickets, Sawmill appeals to families, beginners, and skiers and snowboarders who enjoy the character of a traditional local ski hill. The mountain offers a mix of gentle learning terrain and steeper runs, along with a terrain park.
Lessons and rental equipment are available, and night skiing is offered on selected evenings. The lift system includes chairlifts and T-bars; the resort notes that lift availability may vary with demand. A snow tubing area provides another winter activity, while on-site accommodations range from inn rooms to group lodging and a slopeside chalet.
Ski Sawmill participates in the Indy Pass program. Its relatively remote location in Pennsylvania Grand Canyon country makes it an option for a low-key ski getaway as well as a day on the slopes.
