One of the best ski resorts for families with young children, Brian Head’s Navajo Lodge has become one of our favorite winter destinations. It’s an incredibly welcoming and family-friendly mountain, with gentle terrain, well-organized lifts, and a relaxed atmosphere that makes it perfect for beginners, intermediates and specially kids. This is where my daughter learned to ski, which makes it especially meaningful for our family. The instructors are patient and encouraging, and the wide, smooth runs at Navajo are ideal for building confidence. Every New Year’s, we spend a full week here enjoying everything the lodge and mountain have to offer from the beautiful scenery and well-groomed trails to the cozy lodge and convenient amenities. It’s the kind of place that creates lasting family memories and keeps us coming back year after year.

Wow.. we purchase snowboarding lessons 1/2 day and I’m blown away. Instructor Tom was great with my kids and was so patient! Navajo ski lodge is the probably one of the best places to learn the culture of the whole lodge was phenomenal! I can’t give this place enough praise! I can’t want to come back! This will be our new tradition. We live near Lee canyon but I don’t think it compares to Brain head or this lodge. The lesson are worth every penny both of my kids 8 and 11 went from 0-100. Which is incredible because my 11 year old was terrified and isn’t a dare devil. Also, rentals were easy and more than affordable. I can’t recommend this place enough

This was only 2 minutes from Brian Head Lodge so that was great for us! The rental staff was super fast and effective. Highly recommend getting your rentals the day before and your lift ticket. Staff at the ticket counter were friendly. Get there early for closer parking to the lift and to ski without lines for a good hour or so. The lift operators had a good system for scanning and getting people on quickly. The trails are beautiful and we had a great time. The lodge itself was small but their soup and chili were delicious . No fireplace inside but that would have been a bonus. Overall we were very happy with our 2 day ski trip.

Great friendly people with an introduction to skiing. The part of Brian Head offers easier slopes, rentals, food, and an outdoor patio. I prefer to start my day here because of the friendly staff.

This was very interesting. Just a 30 minute drive from the hotel and we went from long sleeve weather to skiing. That in itself was pretty cool. The lodge is small yet all the food costs the same as it does at the bigger resorts. The lift ticket price itself was cheaper and of course it didn't have nearly as many runs. But for a 2 day trip it wasn't bad. It definitely wasn't run as smoothly as other resorts, with the rentals, tickets, ext. The also had 2 different lodges so sometimes things would get a bit confusing.

The Senior Ticketing Manager (didn’t grab her name!) was extremely kind and understanding with our ticket questions and concerns, she helped us out so much, and in effect we had an incredible time. I highly recommend the costumer service here including at the rentals bar as well. Everyone was so kind and helpful! They went above and beyond.
