This ski mountain is working with Boston Mills Ski Resort, they both are now under 1 administration. Brandywine opens midafternoon (at 4pm or 5pm-can’t recall exactly) and continues open until 9 pm. My husband liked the sloops but said they are pretty steep, not for beginners. The store, cafeteria and rest area is very simple but nice.

Just a drive through, end of season. Checked out the sledding run. Looks like we are planning to go next year. End of season still looks fun. Fire pit, snack shop, music. I figure it will wear you out quickly.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit here as first time skiers from Florida! The ski lesson crew was top notch in showing us the basics and guiding us down the easy slope in preparation to venture off on our own. We can't wait to come back and make this a yearly activity!!

My wife and I really enjoyed our time at Brandywine. We went during a night special so the prices were very reasonable for what you get. Everything is well-maintained and efficient. All staff were super friendly helpful. 10/10. We will be back.

Slow to get in but then well run with sort lift waits and friendly staff. Lessons for the kids were great! The slope is pretty limited though once you get up and know what you're doing but a pretty good place to start.

Had a very positive ski lesson with "Bob" and learned some new tricks on how to ski better, always pleasant staff and lifts seem to always be running. Would recommend to new skiers and those getting back into it after awhile.
