"I went on a 50+° day and it was still pretty good snowboarding. It was pretty busy, but if you're experienced enough to use the tow rope etc. you can get a lot of good runs in. Good experience over all."

"Excellent place. I only gave 4 stars, because I used to like it more when they were open all year round. Best place for skiing with the kids. I love the gift shop."

"Perfect WI slopes. Great for learning, getting comfortable trying new gear, and enjoying the winter season outside. Beat the crowd - get out early. First run of the day is the best."

"Little Switzerland is the greatest Ski Area in Greater Milwaukee/Southeast Wisconsin! My Grandfather was there back when it opened and has been an ongoing tradition in our family for 84 years spanning 4 generations. But they have made many improvements since back when Grandpa started way back then thats for sure! What it lacks in length of runs it makes up for in several key areas. 1. It utilizes both sides of the Beautiful Glacier formed slope to offer a..."

"Last weekend we had a blast at Little Switz. My boys and I went snowboarding for the first time, and had a great time. Great beginner slopes, many trails gradually increasing in skill. Ski lifts, tow ropes, and conveyor belts. In addition, they’ve got good food and a great bar. Huge shout out to the bartenders Abby and Anna!!! After a long day of snowboarding, these wonderful ladies got us feeling right! Super friendly and personable. Drinks were delicious. I’d..."

"This is a nice hill with a cozy lodge to hang out in and sip a drink or grab a bite to eat. It's also great for watching people on the slopes, with a really fun large jump you can see people do some really cool stuff (or eat snow). The last time I had food here I did like it. It's a bit more expensive but I understand it because of the convenience. The hill has a few nice..."

"Never skied or boarded here before and got season passes with my daughter for the year. Went out on Saturday late day and it was great. Scanning technology is super fast/efficient, even if the lines are longish with so many people wanting to be out on the slopes. Looking forward to making this a weekly event and even utilize the tow rope - will be helpful in Colorado come spring @ Arapahoe where they have a tow rope moving up..."
