Elk Mountain Ski Resort

"As a first time skier, I couldn't have asked for a better time on the mountain. We went on a Thursday/Friday and there were no crowds whatsoever. Gary, my instructor, was absolutely incredible! Can't say enough good things about him. Even after my lesson was done, anytime we ran into Gary on the other trails he was sure to check in and say hello. 10/10 recommend for any skier, but especially beginners!"

"It gets four out of five stars as the best skiing in Pennsylvania. It can not compare to big mountain skiing in New England (Jay Peak, Killington, Stowe, Sunday River), or out West (Alta, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley), but it is the best skiing PA's got. It still has a small mountain atmosphere, which is hard to find anymore."

"an amazing mountain to ski! just note that this is not for beginners, there’s only one slope which is really easy also, some of the upper trails were closed even though it was really snowing in the last few days last but no least, one of the lifts got stuck and they had to rescue dozens of people that got stuck and it took them more than one hour"

"Elk Mountain Ski Resort is a top choice for those seeking a mix of challenging and leisurely skiing, efficient operations, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. It’s a ski destination that truly offers a memorable and enjoyable winter experience."

"Elk is well worth the extra drive for anyone looking to ski or snowboard in the Pocono Mountain area. The snow conditions are always better than any resort in the area. Crowds are usually low, and the staff and locals offer a great all-around vibe."
