5.6/10

I had a mixed experience at Sipapu Ski and Summer Resort. While the skiing and accommodations were decent, the service left much to be desired, particularly regarding ski lessons and staff helpfulness. Overall, it’s a fun place for families, but there are definitely areas that need improvement.

Rooms

The accommodations are clean and provide all the basic necessities, but they are utilitarian and lack kitchens or microwaves.

Service

The staff was generally unhelpful and disorganized, particularly when it came to signing up for ski lessons, leading to a frustrating wait in the cold.

Location

The resort is beautifully located in the Carson National Forest, but access to local trails could be better marked and communicated to guests.

Dining

I didn't experience much dining at the resort, but I did hear that the bar offers a nice selection, including tasty cocktails.

Facilities

5.0

The resort offers basic facilities, but there’s a significant need for more detailed maps or information about surrounding trails for activities beyond skiing.

I had a mixed experience at Sipapu Ski And Summer Resort. The skiing was affordable and suitable for beginners, offering a decent variety, but the facilities and lodging left much to be desired. The friendly staff and lack of lift lines were definite highlights, while the limited dining options and outdated accommodations were noticeable drawbacks.

Rooms

I stayed in a Riverside cabin that was cozy for my family of four but in need of repairs; one heater didn't work, and hot water ran out quickly.

Service

The staff were generally friendly, though the management seemed flustered at times with customer complaints.

Location

The resort is quite isolated, requiring a drive to Vadito or Taos for dining options, which can be inconvenient.

Dining

5.0

Dining options were limited, with on-site restaurants closing at 5 pm and only takeout available due to staffing issues; I enjoyed the green chile pork stew, though.

Facilities

5.0

The resort felt more like a motel with basic amenities, as the room wasn't cleaned during my stay and there were issues with Wi-Fi.

I had a fun time at Sipapu Ski and Summer Resort, but there were a few bumps along the way. The mountain was decent for beginners and the lift lines were short, making it a good family spot. However, the accommodations and dining options left a lot to be desired.

It's pretty isolated, so there aren't many dining options nearby, but it's super close to the slopes.

Dining

The on-site dining closed at 5pm, leaving me scrambling for food options; the resort food was just okay.

Facilities

The rental area could use more staff as the wait time was around 45 minutes, making the process frustrating.

6.6/10

I had a mixed experience at Sipapu Ski And Summer Resort. The location is beautiful with great skiing, but the accommodations were pretty outdated and the service left much to be desired. While I enjoyed some aspects of my stay, there were definitely significant areas for improvement.

Rooms

5.0

The four-bedroom unit I rented was quite old and in need of maintenance; there was even a broken window covered with cardboard, which was a real downer.

Service

5.0

The ski lesson sign-up was a hassle. Waiting in the cold with my kids for over an hour and a half just to secure spots was frustrating, and the instructor we got was not up to par at all.

Location

8.0

The resort is really in a stunning area, close to the ski lodge, which made it easy to get out on the slopes. The views were fantastic, and the lift ticket prices are super reasonable.

Dining

5.0

The restaurant was only offering take-out when I was there, which was a bummer. But I did enjoy their green chile pork stew; it packed a spicy punch! Still, the dining area could definitely use some updating.

Facilities

5.0

The resort had some basic facilities, but things like the bathrooms really needed better upkeep; some were downright unsanitary, which was off-putting.
