Brighton Resort

"Really great resort with some good skiing. They're particularly great for new and inexperienced skiers - the lessons were great and the folks leading them were friendly but firm and made sure that you left the day a better skier. Rowan E in particular stood out and I hope to work with him again in the future."

"Brighton seems like a small fun mountain, great for beginners or an alternative to the bigger mountains. Unfortunately, my experience on Saturday was the worst experience I have had at any ski resort, ever. We purchased pm 4 hour night passes for $125 (after tax) starting at 1pm. The website said all lifts were open and didn't mention anything about closing early. Upon arrival we were informed they were closing at 4pm. After a brief lightning storm at 2:15, they closed completely. After skiing 3 runs in 70 minutes, guest service said they could not offer any refund. They gave us a voucher subtracting $25 per run. This will be the last time I ever ski at Brighton. Please do better."

"Good skiing. The hosts were phenomenal. When my daughter’s skis were accidentally taken home by another family, the resort staff was so accommodating and helpful. They went above and beyond to make sure our day was not ruined. They were also incredibly helpful when my son got altitude sickness on our first day. Ski school was also great. My kids both learned a lot."

"The mountain itself is a great beginner mountain. The areas off to the sides of the main section were great with plenty of snow between the trees. The main trails see a lot of traffic and were mostly skied out. Which for the price of a ticket was disappointing. This was the most crowded of the resorts we visited with a significant wait in lift lines (for reference we went on a Monday during presidents weekend). We went to two other mountains during the holiday weekend and never waited in a line once. The parking situation is a mess to say the least. Make sure to plan ahead and reserve a spot. This seems to be a great spot to learn for beginners or kids. Nothing wrong with that, but if you’re looking for more challenging terrain & less people I would choose a different mountain (especially for the price)."

"Family had a great time at Brighton! The slopes and snow were awesome. Everyone working there was kind and helpful- especially mountain hosts Matt and Heidi who helped us at the end of the day with getting down the mountain and giving great recommendations for the area (their kindness was one of the highlights of our trip). Main fault was that we were unable to make parking reservations and the buses were always packed full and long routes to be in full gear or tired at the end of the day"
