| * | This place goes on the "I'm not stupid to go back there again" list.
This is a VERY DANGEROUS AND UNSAFE PLACE!!!! DO NOT TAKE YOUR KIDS THERE. THEY MOST LIKELY WILL GET HURT!!!!
It was horrible. The parking lot was a mud pit and once you park on the upper level of the hill it is really tough to walk down. People with small children who need strollers are out of luck.
It is way overpriced for what they offer. Tubing was $30.00 for 3 hours. But they don't tell you it's 40 minutes on the line. So what does that come out to, maybe 5 times down the run??
The front lobby where you buy the tickets smelled like a urinal. The bathroom was even worse. Toilets didn't flush, no T.P. and no paper towels to dry your hands. I guess the guy thinks once you put them back in your gloves they will dry. Wanted to buy a bag of chips for the kids. Bag said .99 cents. The owner said 2$ a one dollar handling fee he claims. Man, and I thought thieves used guns.
We wanted to rent helmets. ( Boy, I’m glad we did) 20 minutes on line to rent a helmet. So that was 20 minutes less that the kids got to go on the run. Also, while getting the helmets, a pair of skies fell on my son and hit him on the back. Big skies, little kid, figure it out.
There were not enough tubes and people were fighting over the tubes.
They did not have enough staff for the people and the staff did very little to make the runs safe. There was one person at the bottom of the lift to help you on and one person on the top to help you off. There was nobody working at the bottom of the run to direct the people off the slope and there was nobody at the top of the run to spread out the tubers. They were all coming down at random and very unorganized. My son went up the big run and was not instructed on how to slide down with the tube. He sat in it instead of laid down. First hill he flies out of the tube face first into the ice. That’s when the guy at the top tells me he should lie down instead. After the fact. But his Mid Eastern accent was so heavy I doubt my son would have understood him anyway.
Many people got hurt when I was there due to the negligence of the owner. One skier came down the slopes and missed a quad that was parked right at the end of the run by inches. People were getting wiped out just waiting on line. It reminded me of a slaughter house. Just waiting on line to be axed.
This guy should be ashamed of himself and be closed down as soon as possible.
Again, I can only stress that it is very unsafe. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. ( I wish I had been).
If I could give this place less then a 1 it would be in negative numbers!! | Male between 26 and 55 | 12-28-07 |
| * | Completely agree with everything said here. I wrote a complaint about this ski slope before and would like to warn parents with kids. DO NOT GO TO WOODBURY SKI AREA. IT IS VERY DIRTY AND UNSAFE!!!! | Family with young children | 03-04-08 |
