seven springs is well run, excellent snowmaking, lots of lifts, lots of short slopes,lots of restaurants and lodge bldgs at base of slopes. it a good place to ski. problem is that all slopes are pretty short, their vertical is only 600 or 700 ft, sort of like snowshoe without the western side.

Concur with JJ. 7 Springs is a great resort. What it lacks in vertical you can make up in the number of runs you can get in. With its lift capacity and two distinct skiing "faces" crowds are well dispersed. There are also trails they let bump up naturally and although short, the will give you a workout. Also, apres ski activities are essentially under one roof, so you do not have to wait on a shuttle to carry you around the mountain top. "Try it, you'll like it!"

7springs is a blast. It's got everything except for huge verticle. I have never known anyone that went there and didn't have a good time.
It is how you picture a ski lodge to be in your mind.

Oh, One other thing, I believe Seven Springs was listed as one of the top 50 ski resorts in America by Snow Country Magazine a couple years back. This was quite an honor for them and they have made improvements since then.
