What a great time! Cost efficient for those looking for a fun day in the snow. Very family friendly. Has hot food and snacks. Would recommend for beginners and novice skiers. Comparably smaller than surrounding mountains, makes Ski Bradford a great place to learn or just cruise. Must see!

Skied here for the first time a few days ago and it was a great time. Very nice local ski area with plenty of lifts and good variety of terrain, including a half-pipe!

Great little local resort. Convenient to get to. After two days of lessons the kids were riding the lifts and skiing independently. Its small enough that they can have a long leash to explore confidently. Highly recommend the vacation camps.

Its a good local Ski hill with a few flaws. They have WiFi, but they dont share it to the public, the food is overpriced, the waters are overpriced, and the staff (not the instructors) can be quite rude from time to time. Not all of them, but some. Its a good experience overall, but its just not perfect.

We weren’t able to use our ticket because of the virus and when we tried to get a refund, the staff said they would email us but they did not. We waited 2 months for the email but did not receive one. This was for a birthday but COVID-19 started and we were sadly unable to go. do NOT RECOMMEND. Very bad customer service.

Has everything you need to go skiing, rentals, a lounge with a real fireplace and bathrooms, you can order food there too. The slopes are great from beginner level all the way to advanced. My two kids went here for their first time skiing.

Bradford has long been my favorite go-to mountain. We were a little disappointed tonight that the bare minimum of trails were open, yet the lift tickets werent discounted. Regardless, Bradford remains a timeless classic, yet seems a little dated and out of touch. Cafeteria was done cooking pizza and burgers at 7:00, our only option was leftover chicken fingers and heatlamp fries. #ApresSkiFail

I cant say enough about how great this place is! Ski Bradford is local, affordable and staffed by the nicest people. My grandson had his first ever snowboarding lesson and he loved it, thanks to the wonderful instructors. Ski Bradford Rocks!!!

I signed up for the Massachusetts Learn to ski day at Bradford Ski, I found it an incredible deal!! I received a 1 hour ski lesson, which was taught by a certified ski instructor and ski rentals for a discounted price. Our instructor was Dennis, and I have to say he was unbelievable! Dennis had great patience and was very knowledgeable. I recommend Ski Bradford to any person or family looking for a great day of skiing or snowboarding!

Im an avid. Long time skier. Own a home and have worked at the largest ski resort in New England. Am a part time nanny and took 10 yr old twins there today. Every single employee gets 10 stars... The lifts run smoothly... Attendants pay very careful attention to newbies... Skiing limited to a few trails and the snow was EXCELLENT on those few, limited trails. We still skied until 4:30 and every run was great. This is a great little (hill) mountain.

Its a convenient place for kids to take lessons and learn to ski if you live on the North Shore. They often have good deals on lift tickets.The runs are really short but so are the lift lines. They do a good job making snow to keep the trails covered early and late in the season.There is a small cafeteria in the lodge if youre hungry. The lodge also has a big fireplace to help warm up on cold days.As an adult who knows how to ski, Id look to go somewhere else unless youre going with kids that are still learning.

Great little local mountain to run the kids over and ski or snowboard for a couple of hours. Plenty of seating inside and out for parents who just watch, or when you want to stop and get some food. Lots of instructors, plenty of opportunity for lessons.

Their learn to ski program for kids (Little Bee) is spectacular, and they have a whole series of programs set up to follow. I cant believe how quickly my kids progressed! It also seems like a great spot for beginners of all ages.

Review №33

The staff is friendly and helpful, other than that its expensive and very small. I understand theyre in it to make money but the ticket prices are about the same as going to a real ski mountain an hour north. The log gets packed very quickly and because of the large number of tables its very difficult to move around. One other plus is the food they serve is decent for the most part and not too expensive when compared to what youd pay at a movie theater or something like that.

Review №36

Its a nice small little ski hill. Its great that it is so close, the people are nice, they seem to make enough snow to keep the place going. Id give it another star for its size but it is so extremely expensive to ski for a day that I had to take a star away. For my family with a mix of tickets, rentals and lessons the total came out to over $300! I have my own stuff and still had to pay over $50 just to ski on this tiny hill. We brought some of our own food but then got two burgers and two fries later... over $20... then 4 ice creams from the vending machine... $16! We had an excellent day, great time... just expect to take out a second Mortgage to pay for it all.

Review №37

Its a great beginner hill! The staff is friendly and the ski instructors for the kids are Great!..... And I think its priced appropriately. A weekend full day ticket is $52 at Bradford. Its $93 at Sunapee - which is bigger than Bradford, but still not a BIG mountain by any stretch. I definitely give it a thumbs up

Review №42

This is my all time favorite ski area! I have skied many places including Sugarloaf in Maine and Gunstock, Pats Peak, and McIntyre in New Hampshire, but THIS IS MY ALL TIME FAVORITE SKI AREA! If you go on a weekday you have the trails almost to yourself. Some people say this place is small, but the benefits of short lift rides actually result in MORE TIME on the slopes. There is much variety in the different trails. This area is for more than just beginners.

Horrible experience at Bradford on Feb 10th. I was asked to leave the mountain because I was walking with my 4 year old daughter on the bunny slope. I had purchased a learning area ticket for both myself and daughter and had appropriate gear on and with me. I was simply riding the magic carpet with just boots on so that I could help my daughter load and unload safely and start to make her first turns. I was an instructor at this mountain a number of years back and frequently did just this with their ski wee program. We would have three instructors for safety, one on skis and two on foot to make sure the kids were safe. When asked how having a snowboard attached to my feet made it safer for other people or my daughter, who is a new rider, they could not give me a reason and suggested that I get her a lesson. When I told them that I was a former certified instructor that worked for them in the past, and did this while employed by them they had no response. Their reason was that it was an official policy that Neil let everyone know about years ago, mandated by the state. When I later called other Massachusetts ski areas to double check this I found out the staff at the front desk were lying to me and that what I was doing would be no problem at their mountains. They refused to refund the two tickets that I had purchased 30 min earlier, instead offering a gift card. I had proper boots and a paid ticket for both my daughter and myself, and was still told to leave. Absolutely unacceptable on the part of Neil and all at the ticket office. I will not be returning and suggest that others steer clear of this non family friendly place. Absolutely disgusted by the management. Please spread the word especially to the school systems that frequent this place. If you cant support someone learning to love the sport you sell then you should not be in business.

I came and had a bad fall. The rescue team came in a timely manner and took very good care of me. Unfortunately I was unable to even get to the top of the kiddy mountain but they are going to let me go again ast no extra cost. ALWAYS USE A HELMET!!!! I did not think I needed one but I can assure you that I will have a helmet next time.

Fun to mess around in the terrain Park but the prices to this tiny excuse of a hill are insane they should lower there tickets. The learning area at Mount Sunapee is even bigger and cheaper for the full day and a much longer run also the area is called south peak and its got 2 terrain areas to hit some fun features..... Bradford needs cheaper tickets

If you want a local place for a terrain park, (because if think that actually skiing here is fun, than you are stupid), you will be disappointed. The features are trash. If you are good than they are 1.) rusty 2.) horribly maintained 3.) About a million little kids that have no respect for anyone, will cut you off and then not hit the feature but go off the side of every on jump and ruin them. all in all this place is a living hell for anyone who has any respect for themselves as a skier. DO NOT GO!

Review №79

Sadly, our 15 year old and her friend were bullied, knocked down on purpose twice, by 2 boys at the end of night skiing. When pointed out to ski patrol, would have thought they would have lost skiing privileges rather than just being told they would be watched. Ski Patrol said they come often so would watch them. To their credit, the Ski Patrol did bring one father in on the conversation with the boys, but our girls felt that the father looked at it as a nuisance, and no consequences to the boys. Too bad for such a family place with so many good memories to not take it more seriously. Both girls were hurt (head and arm, not seriously) and report that the boys high fived and skied away after they knocked them over.

Its ur boy Fil Scarfo here I huck bakies for days and then hit the race hill ftb Hashtag Sam Lawler is my idol ]. I tried to fight a poser with some Saga outerwear but I was such a Jerry he was scared of me. MAX LATAM RUTHLESS OPTICS, trevor did indeed allow sammy lawler to hop in the line and then trev was chirping sammy lawyer saying he owns the mountain. TO BE CLEAR TREVOR GALLO HAS BEEF WITH SAMMY LAWLER. Once trevor gallo has confirmed that sammy lawyer could hop in the line sammy lawler proceeded to knock down my friend trev and ski away while high fiving. Trevor was hurt (head and arm not seriously) it seemed as if the ski patrol did not care as it was reported to them. Ski patrol contested that sammy lawler skied there a lot and his parent were notified FOLLOW ABBEYBO3 ON INSTAGRAM #SOLID #STEEZE. I DONT EVEN KNOW HOW TO WORK ON A CAR/ VAPEORIZER. I GO SO HARD AT BRADDY AND IT IS A SHA,ME TO SEE PEOPLE ARE GETTING HURT HEAD AND ARM NOT SERIOUSLY. SOMETIMES I THINK TO MYSELF WHAT BRADFORD COULD BE IF THE SKI PATROL TOOK BULLYING MORE SERIOUSLY AND PULLED KIDS PASSES WHEN THEY ARE PUAHING PEOPLE OVER AT THE END OF NIGHT SKIING AND SKIING AWAY HIGH FIVING. I ALSO FEEL IT IS A SHAME THAT THESE BOYS TOOK IT UPON THEMSELVES TO RUIN TWO GIRLS NIGHT SKIING EXPIERIENCE ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY PAID ENOUGH MONEY FOR ONE NIGHT TO GET A SEASON PASS TO ANY OTHER MOUNTAIN. SO IN CONCLUSION I WOULD LIKE TO THANK MY SPONSORS RUTHLESS OPTICS AND HOG CUSTOM LURES. I got table toped by my boy matt dzwil and pavito and Im so rattled cause she hurt her arm.
