Stay was very accomodating, besides the rooms are very outdated and small beds. Service was great, slopes were awesome, and food was really good.

Reviews about Chestnut Mountain Resort
“My husband and I used to go to Chestnut Mountain every winter with our three boys. We have not been for the last 10 years. Had to believe the place could get better, but it did. Had an awesome time! Resort is fantastic, food was really good, staff very helpful, friendly and personable. I can't wait to go back!!!”
“The the view out my window was beautiful. The grounds seemed very well kept. I would like to come back when I have more time to explore. It was easy to get to and not too far from the shops in Galena. I enjoyed my short stay.”
“Clean and comfortable. Friendly staff. Food and drinks available to order in rooms because of Covid.”
“Location & view!”
“Brought my family for skiing, it was their first time but I have been there with friends almost every year, and this year, I was able to convince my wife and children to come and enjoy skiing.”
