Stayed here recently for weekend in August family wedding nearby. Very efficient place, clean, definitely could use some updating but we’ll furnished and wonderful to have all the creature comforts like kitchen, fridge, iron, etc. Really enjoyed our Mountain View and balcony an added bonus! Seth at reception was most welcoming and took extra care when our room had different beds than we had requested. Definitely felt he treated us fairly and with care! Enjoyed the pool (brrr) and hot tub!
Burke is our happiest place ❤️ amazing skiing for this who like a challenge hut it also offers beginner terrain on the lower half. Small enough to let the kiddos roam free but as large as you want to make it with never ending tree trails, fun rollercoaster kid runs and friends all over the place. Like any small mountain we have some quirks but the community, fun, safety and killer skiing makes it the best around! (Oh and you will have more runs by 10am than you have all day at “the bigger mountains”
I’ve been skiing at Burke for three years now. As someone who isn’t a pro at skiing, I love this mountain. There are a couple of negatives, but first what I love.
The mountain is easy to navigate, with just two lifts, a magic carpet, a T-Bar, and J-Bar. Trails are clearly marked, and mapped out.
All that staff I have dealt with are very friendly, and the ski coaches are great. Anyone in the Ski-Patrol/ medic group there are amazing, and very understanding.
I’ve never had a problem with the lifts being shut down, as some other comments mentioned.
A couple of negatives.
The food, like any other ski mountain, will basically break the bank if you know what I mean. It’s to be expected, but the food is NOT worth the price.
The bathrooms at the mid-Burke lodge are deplorable. Guessing not too many people go there because the hotel is right there, but I was shocked to see how disgusting they were.
Overall, it’s a great place for families and avid skiers, but also for beginners.
This is the best mountain that I’ve been to in VT! Amazing customer service at tickets, lodges, lift staff, restaurant and hotel staff. 5 stars all aound! All facilities are so well maintained, hotel is fantastic, restaurants wonderful and lodges are exceptional. Best lifts you could hope for. This mountain is everything and then some. HIGHLY recommend!! My only complaint is that now all I can think about is moving closer to become a regular 😁 Well done Burke!
Very good skiing experience. There is only one lift available to the average skier to go up to the summit but it wasn’t busy during my visit. The facilities are pretty nice but they had no food prepared at lunchtime.
