It is not my type of skiing, but I love that it is so different from the other areas on Okemo. More

We did not realize all that was in the Jackson Gore Ski area. We ended up spending the end of our last day at Okemo on the Jackson Gore side. We will definitely be back to stay slope side next year. More

We went to Jackson Gore for the roller coaster ride and snow tubing. Both were a lot of fun. Both the roller coaster and tubing is very expensive and you certainly won't be letting your kids go on a second time. This area is really nice, has a big fire pit outside. We have eaten at the restaurant here Colemand... More

Jackson gore is a great ski area. Hit the slopes at 9 AM and ski without the crowds. They usually don't get out on the slopes until about 11 AM More

It was a busy MLK weekend, and the trails did get skied off, but the groomers did the best they could. I doubt anybody else could have gotten the conditions as good. More

We decided to try Jackson Gore Inn after friends say they saw it while staying at another complex at Okemo. We loved it. Our room was spacious with a mountain view and a balcony. The fireplace was an added bonus. And of course what child doesn't love an outdoor pool in below freezing weather. Every resort we stay at has... More

New facilities seem nice, but overall not as great as you would expect for a new resort. Town of Ludlow leaves a lot to be desired. And I mean A LOT. Also, ski and snowboard instructors are sub-par compared to other destinations in Vermont. So if you are taking children who are learning to ski, factor that into your decision. More

This year Jackson Gore was open so we wanted to try it. We had a studio unit in the newer Bixby building. The studio is spacious and beautiful, with... More

My husband and I took an easy 4 1/2 hr. ride north to Ludlow Vermont for a 2 night stay at the Jackson Gore Inn. (next door to Okemo) We had heard so much about this new Inn since it opened in December '03 and wanted to see it first hand before the craze of the winter. What a gorgeous... More
