Echo Mountain - Idaho Springs, Colorado

I enjoyed reading by the lodge fireplace while my son and his girlfriend enjoyed the snowboarding slopes. The view is incredible and watching a snowstorm progress over the distant mountains to our location was interesting. The drive up and down Echo mountain in icy weather was no joke for this Florida resident!

AMAZING MOUNTAIN AND CUSTOMER SERVICE. My wife and spent the afternoon at echo mountain and as novice skiers we had a blast! The entire staff was incredibly kind and accommodating, shout out to Chloe and Chase who helped us down in rentals! The mountain had free instructors on the bunny slope which is an amenity I have never seen offered free! Overall a great experience and we definitely will return!

We had an exceptional experience at this outstanding location! While visiting Colorado for a conference, we seized the opportunity to enjoy some skiing and discovered this hidden treasure. The rental team’s performance was nothing short of exemplary.

This rental team and staff collectively, particularly Felesha, Chance, Jake, and Chris, demonstrated remarkable professionalism and dedication. Despite encountering a minor setback with their new point-of-sale system, they worked tirelessly to ensure our needs were met. Their collaborative effort and problem-solving skills were truly impressive.

The level of customer service provided by the rental team far exceeded our expectations. Their attentiveness, expertise, and genuine commitment to enhancing our experience were evident throughout our interaction. It’s rare to encounter such a cohesive and customer-focused team.

We were so impressed with our overall experience that we’re enthusiastically recommending this establishment to our colleagues and friends back in Waco. This destination is undoubtedly a must-visit for anyone seeking top-notch service and excellent skiing facilities in Colorado.

We went out to try night skiing last night and had a blast! I wanted to specifically shout out how nice the lift operators were, especially Eric and Sean! My 6 year old niece, who loves snowboarding, got to learn how to ride the lift last night. The guys were so patient and sweet with her, slowing the lift down and teaching her how to get on and off. They helped her all night and she got better and better! This made our experience at Echo Mountain really incredible and we can’t wait to go back. Thank you so much!

Have not been on the slopes for about 10 years but my partner and I gave the mountain a shot and we absolutely loved it!! Two specific instructors , Tim & Michael were absolutely wonderful. They helped us get our bearings and were patient with us till we got our confidence. We quickly were able to take on a bigger slope and did it twice before even knowing it. I’d recommend Echo mountain to anyone especially beginners. Honorable mention for the rental staff/crew they were absolutely hilarious and friendly. Altogether I can see why so many people love this mountain. We have definitely become regulars. Looking forward towards the next time and beyond.

We love the set up at this mountain for beginners. The lodge is just a short walk from the parking lot which always has spots available for free. The magic carpet is a short walk from the lodge. The lodge lets you out at the midpoint of the ski hill allowing you to ski right away vs having to get on a lift. Affordable ski rentals. Adult ski and boot rental cost $45 per day. There’s only one lift and the attendants are always paying attention and allow for slow downs for beginners. Also, the food is excellent !

We went for the day and had a great time. The staff were really nice and very helpful. It's not a very big place but perfect for newbies and a day of skiing. We will definitely go back if we are in the area again! The food was really good too!

Excellent little ski area that is only 36 miles from downtown Denver. One of the few ski areas to have night skiing in Colorado. I hadn’t been downhill skiing in about 2 years and its a great place to learn or get your skiing skills and legs back. Staff were welcoming and friendly. Will come back for more night skiing.
