Plenty of snow, more than 180 in on average each winter
Part of the resort is dedicated to challenging trails for advanced skiers
One of the biggest ski areas in the Mid-Atlantic states
Cons
Isolated location can mean a long journey to get here
Overall
4.6
If you're looking for a big resort experience in the Southeast, Snowshoe is the perfect resort. It has the most terrain and vertical in the Mid-Atlantic along with a village filled with a range of lodges and a whole bunch of great après ski and nightlife choices. There are a few high-speed lifts around but on a holiday weekend, lift queues can get quite long. The terrain is mostly suited for advanced skiers and below and it's also important to note that off-piste skiing is not allowed.
Its like a fairyland town on top of a gnarly mountain. The riding is the best you can get south of New England (on the east coast). Its an awesome but secluded place. There's no cell phone service, so its difficult to find people but it takes you back. I recommend checking it out!

It is closest in southeast but really, kind of a haul to get to, difficult long drive. Very pretty, but a small ski area, good lodging, limited base activity/village

Our son was employed to work at Snowshoe. Our visit was for that purpose. If we lived closer, we would visit more often.

It's the biggest mountain in the Mid-Atlantic, and one of the five biggest on the East Coast.

I like that they have lots of snow ( weather depending ) and the resort is attractive in design and fun.
