Fun small mountain. Decent for learning to ski - There's a magic carpet (belt lift), & 1 well designed green circle trail. Great for kids who want to play in terrain parks. I was told they also have a kids racing program. Well groomed cruisers, space for carvers. Limited challenging terrain: short steps, few glades, no moguls. Just 2 non-detachable lifts, & one is old/slow

I was at the mountain snowboarding yesterday. Although the "mountain" is on the small side it is great boarding. What makes it even better is the staff. Of all the mountains I have been to the staff I encountered yesterday were the best!!! From the lift operator (I wish I remembered the name) to the snowboard guy Jack ( who was so kind). He even helped me with my stance, even though I didn't even realize I needed help. Lol It was much better riding after. And I have been riding for years... I will return, but not as much for the mountain. Definitely for the professional and extremely helpful staff. Qudos to you Bousquet, you have a comadity that even the larger mountains I have been to do not...

Can't wait to go back! I'm not a skier, but I would try here! Went tubing, had a great time! Great for a date day, family day, any day! Large or small groups, Safe, fun, organized, and you can't help but smile. Tubing lanes are separated, so this avoids injuries. Open rain or shine, so get there. Definitely do this

My family and I haven't been skiing in years. We changed that this week by visiting this awesome spot. Club house is beautiful and new. Everything was very clean and employees extremely friendly/helpful. Colby was a true rockstar, my dad had lost his wallet and he notified us of the proper channels. He was very welcoming to us and eventually we found the wallet! Colby was running the blue ski lift and brought with him a can do attitude and his communication was first class. Also, notable was the entire tubing staff from Wednesday and Thursday. We enjoyed both skiing and tubing here. As a result, I highly recommend this place. The mountain has some easy parts along with some very challenging. There is a bunny slope for practice if you haven't been in awhile. They offer lessons, quick eats at the cafeteria, or restaurant/bar. Very reasonably priced for rentals/skiing/tubing. The lady at the front who checks people in for tubing is doing a stellar job too. She's a bills fan, but I won't hold it against her 5

Instructor Al was simply amazing! The instructors are very friendly and knowledgeable. The way the lesson was taught provided significant improvements, built confident and was a lot of fun. The staff were all friendly, check in was easy. Will be back soon!

Bousquet is kind of the perfect local smaller ski mountain. Friendly, inexpensive, gorgeous views, with normally excellent ski conditions and very manageable lift lines (none during non-holiday weekdays). I have no clue how a few people say it is overpriced when lift tickets in the bigger N.E. resorts have almost all crossed the $200 mark on weekends. Different strokes I guess. We and our daughter live local and ski midweek. Our son comes up with our 3 grandkids during winter break every year. This year they brought neighbors and their kids. Every single person had a total blast, and my son and his neighbor have skied everything from the Northeast to the Rockies. They are all coming back next year. Bousquet is not big by any standard, but it gives you a great ski day. If you're a monster skier looking to rock the world, this isn't your place, but if you are a beginner to upper intermediate, or an expert who is coming with less competent friends.family or just want to mellow out, this is a very good choice. Just a shout out to lift operator Christian. Three people in our party separately pointed out how cheerful and helpful he was, so we had to get his name.
