Loon Mountain - Mid-Week is Great, But Crowds Make Weekends Horrible

by AliventiAsylum, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Mar 01 '06
Pros: gondola ride, good snow conditions, variety of activities
Cons: crowds on weekends, expensive food in lodges
In taking my kids skiing this winter we’ve been able to try a few new mountains. One of the places we’ve gone back to several times is Loon Mountain. They really enjoy going here to ski, and that is despite the huge crowds that surge ...

Loon Mountain; The big picture.

by godwons , Aug 31 '01
Pros: Excellent snowmaking and grooming.
Cons: Terrain becomes " skied-off " quickly due to the large crowds. High prices. Poor management.
After reading a review on Loon by Nickel1976, I decided to break my silence and offer some constructive criticism on the mountain from an insider's perspective. The author makes some valid points regarding this resort and I felt the need to add a few of...

Unbelievably WONDERFUL!

by lizbet , Jan 15 '00
Pros: A wonderful getaway! Can't wait to return!
Cons: only that we couldn't stay longer!
My husband and I went to Loon Mountain Resort for our "late" honeymoon in February of 1999. (we were married September 1998) We stayed at the resort for 6 days and 5 nights, and it was the most wonderful trip I have ever been on.

The Price is Right for Family Fun

by pweisenberg Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Nov 10 '99
Pros: Price, grooming, family activities
Cons: conditions can vary quickly, hard to get around mnt. some times
One of my favorite places to ski (in the East) is Loon Mountain in Lincoln New Hampshire. I've have found this skiing experience to be the best bang for your buck.

Many of the Lodges in the area offer great mid-week mini-ski vacations. My...

Loon: The family resort

by RCRX19 , Apr 09 '00
Pros: Good for families, runs for every ability level, slopeside hotels
Cons: none
I last visited Loon last year, and this ski resort is great. With mountain side hotels, great chairlifts, great runs that are of varied expertise levels, I rate Loon to be one of the best resorts in the East.

I came with a group of my friends...

A Tourist Trap

by perfectprep , Jan 20 '01
Pros: Good for families
Cons: Not good for skiers
You wanna ski? Don't go to Loon.

You wanna sit in a lovely, ambient lodge sipping gourmet hot cocoa and watching a jazz band play Christmas carols? You'll love Loon.

Loon is not a skier's mountain. It's a wimp's mountain. You want...

Something for Everyone!

by MyPointOfView , Nov 23 '00
Pros: Great ski in ski out resort!
Cons: Not much night life at resort!
We have stayed at the Mountain club for the past three years. The accommodations are ideally suited for anyone who loves the luxury of ski in and ski out. You do not have to walk more than 20 steps before you strap on your skis for a day of fantastic...

Trail Descriptions at Loon

by nick587_1999 , Jan 28 '01
Pros: Great for beginners, intermediates, and advanced intermediates, great trails
Cons: crowds, not many expert trails, expensive food
I think that overall, Loon is a great mountain for the beginner to advanced intermediates, but not for experts, because there are no double blacks (although they are trying to expand). Here is an almost complete trail overview.

Loon...a mountain heaven

by DuxAF1436 , Aug 01 '00
Pros: Great trails, delicious food, friendly people
Cons: None!
I have been going to Loon Mountain for about five years now. I can't really compare it to any other places because it's the only mountain I've ever skied on. My family goes there about 3 times a year to ski and snowboard and I have to say it's...

Summertime around Loon

by Booms729 , Jul 31 '00
Pros: Courts (tennis, b-ball), pools, saunas, jacuzzi and small food shops, everything you need to relax
Cons: Small town outside of Loon, not exactly for the city lovers
My family has owned a time share with Loon Mountain for over the last ten years. I have gone up to Lincoln with them almost all of those times to visit, but always during the summer.
The resort is great for almost anyone who likes to get a good...

Loon Mountain, It's Worth It!!!!!!!

by kirko8617 , Feb 07 '01
Pros: Lift ticket price, location, family geared, and lodges.
Cons: Everything else that costed money, lift speed, and trails.
I recently have visited Loon Mountain in Lincoln, New Hampshire. My visit there was only one day but I feel it only takes a day or two to experience everything there.

As I have mentioned this mountain could be used by anyone in your...

Weekend Hit

by fexpr , Dec 22 '99
Pros: Train, nice slopes
Cons: when the train isnt there its a long walk across the parking lot
Loon is a great mountain. I snowboard all over the white mountains. Loon has for a long time been one of my favorites. In the heart of Lincoln NH it is surrounded by some good shops. One of the things your kids will love the train ride from one side...

Loon Has Its Negatives

by ZvisDad , Jan 04 '01
Pros: Cruising runs, views, friendly atmosphere
Cons: Lift lines, crowded trails, lack of terrain variety
It's too bad that so many of the posted reviews are one-sidedly enthusiastic--although I guess it's swell that all the members think they're skiing at the best resort on earth. As to Loon: we've owned a house there for five years & ski there about...

Great for anyone

by Jerrod , Jan 25 '00
Pros: some challenging trails, fast lifts
Cons: long lines
Loon is a great mountain for anybody to go to. It offers trails for beginners to advanced skiers. However, I wouldn't recommend it for the experts, because it does not offer any trails that only a small percentage of skiers can go down.

I also live in Lincoln!

by MtnGrandma , Jan 09 '00
Pros: Great place for family fun year round
Cons: Traffic jams on weekends and holidays
I have to agree completely that we get some of the worst idiots as frequent visitors to Loon and the surrounding area's. However, as much as we like to complain about them, we have to remember that they are the ones who make it possible for us to...
