Lovely & convenient spot. Easy to get to and park. Affordable (especially compared to Mt Snow downhill skiing!) Very friendly personnel. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because while peaceful in the trees, you never feel secluded- you can see houses or the road or Mt Snow ski area through the trees the whole time. Also it’s not very big. We pretty much skiied all the trails in the 90 min or so that we were there. So people should know it wouldn’t be great for an all day adventure or anything.
It was my first time ever snowshoeing and Timber Creek made it such a great experience. The staff was helpful and explained the trails well. The trail maps were easy to follow and the rental shoes were in fantastic condition. Cant wait to return again soon
We had a great time, with lots of laughs coming from our group. The falling snow made it even more enjoyable!
Joy was a patient n knowledgeable instructor. My first time doing XC. I got really adept at falling n getting up! Loved the whole experience.
Such a beautiful place to cross country ski and the people that worked there were very helpful and kind. Definitely worth the 3 hour drive round trip from Albany
I am the type of person that does not put stickers on their laptop because they are tacky, but I put a timber creek one on my laptop. I did that because I had the time of my life there. I learned a new sport while having the best trainer around. Kelly makes you feel right at home when you arrive introducing you to everyone that is around you. It is an atmosphere, and experience that I would highly recommend
We had a blast! It was our first time cross country skiing and the team made it so easy with rentals and tips to get us started. The trails were easily marked and they groomed them regularly!
Very nice trails, beautiful quiet scenery. I went snowshoeing as it looked like there were a number of people out skiing. There were fewer people snowshoeing which allowed me to really take in the scenery and enjoy the quiet nature. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
