Boalsburg, Centre County, Pennsylvania, US
Went for wing fest round 1 and had a great time. The mountain was beautiful and the weather was nice. The music act and the food were good, but paled in comparison to the venue.
I recently heard some great news that youre going to build a bike park, that would be extremely awesome!If you build it they will come
Weve gone tubing here a couple times now and always enjoy it. The pizza is good too!
Went snow tubing and ate at the snack bar, it was lots of fun. We bought the tubing tickets ahead of time, they do sell out sometimes.
I love this mountain! They have great trails, even though its a small mountain. The lodge has great food too!
Absolutely amazing! The snow is awesome and skiing just doesnt get any better for a small ski resort like this one!
Miniature Golf course was challenging, yet easy enough for kids to complete.
Great experience. My son was having a problem putting on his personal ski boots, and an employee at their rental counter helped him.
Nice place good chicken fingers and fries. Slopes are great, and the terrain park is fun.
My kids love this mountain. It is what we have in town and I am grateful about it.If you buy the season pass before the end of May, you could say up to 100 dollars.
A group of friends and I went to play minigolf at Tussey Mountain. The course was nice and clean, however it left some elements to be desired. Like tee off spots on each hole, signs listing par for the hole. The course difficulty is pretty low, which caters to younger audiences more so than adults. Overall it was nice, but the course was small.
Good local tourist trap. Some paved parking. Bring a chair for outdoor summer events.
Thursday nights Tussy does wing offs, different restaurants each week through the summer with different bands. Other food and drinks available..$10 at the door. Free parking. Come early!!Fantastic place to spend a summer night
Great venue for live music! Wish theyd have bigger name acts there instead of just tribute bands. Still love the venue! Free parking.
Fun place to ski and snowboard, however a bit pricey for the amount of trails they have open.
Loved it, go carts, skate park, golfing 🤘🤘
Good during winters for tubing and skiing. look out Tue Wed specials
Went to Oktoberfest and it was ok. No prices posted online was annoying and the food was hit or miss. The cover charge is just to get in and doesnt cover any food or drink. I would only go if you are really craving German food.
We were there for Wing Fest. Was good just they have only three spots where to buy the wing for hundreds of people. Would add at least three more. Other than that was good.
Went there for the first time with the family. Nice little place near State college with some fun things to do. I thought the prices were pretty good too. They had driving range, batting cages, par 3 golf, mini golf, and go karts. The go karts were our favorite. $5 a ride and they gave you a long time on the track too. I would definitely recommend.
For a beginner like me it is a perfect place to learn ski. I have come here for a couple of times to do a little of ski with my daughter. She has picked it up very fast but not me. This time I feel a little confident and hopefully, I can do higher slope next year.
The staff was fantastic! Took 2 children as first time beginners. People in the office were terrific. The gentleman in the rentals was extremely helpful and patient and instructor was wonderful. Kids learned a lot and had a very positive experience.
Very fun-- we went for the miniature golf and the go-karts. Had a blast and it was pretty cheap as well. Offered a par 3 golf course, driving range, and batting cages in the same area.In the winter they also offer snow tubing, skiing, and snowboarding but I havent tried those events.
Visited for Wingfest which is always a great time. Line for wings are sometimes ridiculously long so thats a bummer but entertainment and drinks are great!
The quad lift broke when we arrived in the afternoon. Novice skiers so we bought beginners area tickets only. They have a t-bar lift as an alternative that goes to the top of the mountain. After a little less than an hour they repaired the quad lift. They were very accommodating and allowed us to upgrade the lift ticket and pay only the difference.The pro shop was small but the staff was genuine and helpful. Purchased two pairs of Jr skis for a reasonable price. Had the bindings mounted and ready next day as promised.The lodge itself was OK. The food variety was OK and the quality was better than fair. The staff was very nice but seemed disorganized.Snow conditions seemed OK on the hills but theres a lot of ice around the lodge. Not many trails. Besides the beginner area there are only two other beginner trails.Will continue to bring kids here regularly.
Great place for family, whether youre listening to live bands or skiiing!
Attended the tussey mountain wing fest and wow it was a lot of fun. They really have a great set up going on. It so simple to purchase tickets and to use them to buy wings and drinks. They had a great Tom petty tribute band playing. The atmosphere was great and everyone seemed to really be enjoying themselves. I would definitely recommend to any wing enthusiast.
I had a great time skiing here. It is an excellent location, save for the employees. I bought three two hour passes at 3PM. The slopes were scheduled to close at 5PM. The staff at the location closed at 4:30PM without any warning or explanation. I spent $225 for everything. I was not given a refund for the time lost. Also, while I was coming off of one of the ski lifts, part of my clothing was caught on it. I attempted to get the nearest employees attention (less than 10 feet away from me at the end of the ski lift) but she was texting instead of paying any attention. Luckily the piece of clothing was ripped off and I was not dragged along with it... My experience here has given me the impression that the people who run this place dont give a damn about their customers.
I gave it 3 stars because its one of few ski areas in the area so if you want to get your skiing fix then this is it. One or two black diamonds that were well groomed the day I went. Lift tickets seemed expensive for what you get but if dont rent it is well worth it. The tubing park is old fashioned and a pretty good time. They also have mini golf, go karts, and a batting cage in the warmer months.
Took the grandchildren to play mini golf and use the batting cages. Fun time, kids enjoyed it very much and the staff was very helpful
3 maybe 4 trails total-very expensive for how small and old everything is. If you have an extra hour or two the drive to ANY other mountain (blue knob, camel back, seven springs, hidden valley) all will be better for your money. This is for locals to teach their kids how to ski, gear is updated every couple of years, there is a bar in the back if it’s opened, “cafeteria” is bad bring your own food, bathrooms are old and small, don’t plan on changing in there. Terrain park is okay, some of the two trails would be okay if they weren’t blowing snow in your face ALL the time. They’re just trying to build a base so they can stay opened and charge money longer-don’t care about quality of skiers actually using the slopes right then.
Hasnt been much snow this season, so that is definitely affecting my rating. However, the resort is quite small and their snow makers are quite dated. The fake snow they put out is poor quality, making it so people dont ski in that deeper snow as it is so wet it is like skiing through sand. Also, where at most resorts the workers on the lifts are friendly, here they are not... They dont seem to be too happy to be at work, which makes a big difference in the quality of the resort. The employees in the kitchen/restaurant were quite friendly though.
A beautiful, family-run resort! . We recommend visiting Tussey It was a wonderful weekend. The food is delicious, the staff friendly and helpful and the facilities are clean and nice.
Awesome spot all year around. The colder months offer winter activities with concerts, hiking, go carts, and much more when its warm. If you want a relaxing stroll to unwind or an adventure, this is a good place to start!
I love how accessible Tussey is to State College, how much they do with the community in terms of lift ticket deals/ski lessons/live music events/summer activities, and how good the conditions can be even when only 1-2 trails are open. The snack bar has classic mountain food (burgers, fries, soft pretzels) while the bar has restaurant-y food like pierogis and loaded nachos. Always a good time, IMO.
Had a lovely evening fishing in the pond with my sons Scout patrol.
Smaller than roudtop, staff is committed to making the experience good. Good amount of ski patrol for size. Lift is a bit slow (cant change that...)
I attended Tussey Mountain for their weekly Wing Fest events they hold each summer. They do a good job of getting good music acts to play each week and a nice selection of restaurants to compete. The prices could be better especially for beverages and the wings. I would still very much recommend going to a Wing Fest. Few tips I can provide. Bring comfortable chairs that can be setup on the incline. Also bring a short box to put the boats of wings from each place into to ease in carrying.
A nice mix of mini golf, a driving range, and a go-kart track for summer activities. None of them are particularly special, but theyre what you might expect. The prices are reasonable and some of the specials are great. They also regularly have events like movie night for the community.
In February 2017, my daughter, who was visiting from Indiana (the State), took my grandsons there for a ski lesson. The instructors were very patient and good with the kids. My daughter said its a small ski hill, good for beginners. She was happy overall. I also took my son and grandson there in July 2017 and they raced the go-carts. We also played a round of mini-golf, which a little challenging on some tees. We had fun. I would go again for sure.
We went for the first round of Wingfest recently. Its such a great venue for this type of event. I mostly relaxed and listened to the live music while sampling local wings, and my kids walked to the top of a mountain. Tussey does a great job with this event, and I think it just gets better every year.
Attended Wing Fest. The food was great, as was the company. The opening act for the main attraction was terrible. Im not a singer & dont pretend to be - but I know better than to get up on stage and try to sing. I feel like the ball was dropped on the entertainment. It was so bad we actually had to leave - there was no tuning it out & from the people we heard in the parking lot leaving - we werent the only ones with this reason. Well definitely go again - but will use more caution deciding which night were going to go
Ive only gone snowboarding here once (Im a beginner at best) but WingFest is awesome. Great spot for seeing live music and food and beer was nice too. Plus they keep the ski lift running for romantic sunset views ;) Would highly recommend
I recently attended the seasonal Ski Swap at Tussey Mountain Ski Lodge. They offered used and last years ski equipment at decent prices. The staff was very helpful, things were well-organized, and I feel like I got a good deal. Im looking forward to the upcoming ski season and using my new equipment. I have skied at Tussey in previous years and would recommend it for anyone who lives nearby. The resort is small but extremely convenient so I can be on the slopes within minutes.
More than half the slopes were closed. The food was ok if your really hungry. The staff was nice. The classes were decent, my daughter loved the bunny slope it was her first time on a board.
Wing Fest. 5 restaurants compete each week with a winner at the end of summer with total votes. 2 - $1 tickets get you three wings. Beer wagons, live music, wine and mixed drinks. Other foods available. $5 to get in. Drinks and other food extra. Great bands each week!!
The wingfest was great even though it was a little soggy. The atmosphere was relaxing and the band that night was good. Would definitely suggest it to any looking for a fun time and will be going back again myself.
Compact area that offers skiing and boarding near State College. Friendly staff, has a snack area that serves burgers, fries, pizza, chili, chicken fingers and other snacks. Ski conditions were good today. Also offer some night skiing. Not an upscale resort but small, friendly and well maintained.
Alot of people will say that its too small and this is kind of true but like come on were not in Colorado? They always have at least 3 to 4 slopes open of varriering difficulty and theyre of acceptable quality. My only complaint is without a season or group rate pass it can be really expensive especially for college kids. Like as high as $40 for 2 hours on a Wednesday.
Was there on a rainy day so go-karts were closed. We had a family fun pack and asked if we could just have extra balls for driving range instead of go karts. Was told NO. Its not like it would have cost them more. And it was not busy. Instead our fun pack was partly used. Also the guys working there were less than friendly. Will not be going back
Super fun little spot!
Great place to ski, but its not a large resort by any means, but its fairly cheap at least. Could use more trails and more snow machines on some of their smaller trials. Lions Run is never open unless we get a large amount of natural snow in the area because they dont make snow on that trail. Although lookout for the ski shop inside the lodge, right inside the main entrance, they arent owned by Tussey and everything is WAY overpriced.
Decent local ski place. Friendly and helpful staff.
Attended round 6 of Wingfest in 2017. Thoroughly enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere of live music, company of great friends, and delicious food and drink offerings. The weather was absolutely perfect for mid-August in central PA. Big Spring Spirits mixed drinks were the best part of the night, hands down.
Went to last Wingfest. Started raining and everyone bailed at once. Sat in the parking lot for close to an hour trying to get out, no movement at all They were asolutely unprepared to handle traffic, but were readily prepared to take our money for beer and food. Probably the last event Ill attend there.
Awesome scenery! Wings fest n go Carting were added advantage !!
Went during the summer and it was amazing. Well priced, variety of activities, fun for the whole family! Recommend for fun family day! Also make sure to try the go karts!!!
Weve been to Tussey Mountain many times to ski and snowboard. The staff is always knowledgeable and eager to share their love of snow sports. My daughters have participated in ski school for several years and the instructors are fabulous. My oldest has also done IM skiing through the school district. We are very lucky to have such a well run facility in our backyard with so many programs and options for skiing and snowboarding.
Attended wing fest at Tussey Mountain Ski and Recreation last night. Great atmosphere with live music. New and interesting cocktails from Big Springs. Wasnt a fan of the food as Im vegan, but enjoyed a night out with friends
Wing fest was good, kinda pricey for wings 3 wings for $2. Lines can be long but not much can be done about that.Update: In response to the owners comment: Champs- $0.50 per wing on wing night, just to name one. Obviously if you go on a non wing night it will be more. However, I would view Wing Fest a type of wing night
Got married at Tussey and I could not be happier with the staff and venue. They are truly dedicated to their clientele! Christie Hume is a godsend. She was easy to work with, very accommodating and a load of fun to work with. The end result was a beautiful venue, well executed, and absolutely tasty food!!!! Could not be happier and would do it all again in an instant. Best part, I got to ride a go cart in my wedding dress and ride a ski lift as well!!!!! It does not get better than that!
Were here in Pennsylvania from Louisiana on our family winter vacation. We decided to go here on a recommendation from my brother in law. While my family had fun, I was not afforded the same opportunity. Your children have to be at least 4 years old. Thats not the problem, they then expect them to go down the mountain in that tube by themselves. So for my toddler to ride, he would have had to ride by himself. Something about insurance options. Disappointed.
As a family we went to one of there Friday Movie on the Mountain shows and saw The Lion King. There were snacks and drinks, including adult beverages available for purchase. It was such a fun experience and we definitely want to make it a more regular family outing!
Skatepark is awesome. Probably one of the widest varieties I’ve seen at a park like this. Box jumps, wallrides, good quarters and a ton of cool techy street stuff. Also, can’t forget the view, the mountain right there. Nice staff and price is reasonable. Ramps are moderately well kept. Only thing... watch out in the dead summer. There’s NO shade. That concrete gets really hot and just cooks yah.
A nice skate park, mini golf course, batting cages and a Par 3 with driving range. It also has a small go cart track. Staff was friendly.
A great time with friends and family. Great venue. I will return.
They have a wing fest going on and the setup was amazing. The ski lift up and running. Clean and stable. Is a beautiful place. They had plenty of things for adults and kids alike.
Well, I went mini golfing here, and it wasnt bad. The holes were quite short, and didnt offer much variety. The course was very well kept thoigh, and go carts is a real plus too.
Normally a decent experience. However, we came today, March 19, 2017. The mountain is covered in snow but it is posted that the snow tubing is closed for the season. What is not posted anywhere near where you purchase your lift tickets is that none of the beginner trails are open. So after purchasing lift tickets and rentals, we were disappointed to find that not all of us could ski/snowboard due to the fact that some can only use the beginner trails. When I went to ask why this wasnt posted near the counter where you purchase lift tickets I was treated very rudely by the man behind the counter, as well as an older gentleman (I use the term loosely) who came into the ticket area. So as far as customer service goes, from these two individuals, it is severely lacking.
Great little ski resort. Fun mountain
The summer activities they have are really fun! Go karts, mini golf, batting cages, driving range, and movie nights! Its definitely a family friendly place!
Meh...
So much fun, reasonable prices and friendly staff. Fun for all ages.
We had a great time watching bands at their venue. Beautifully landscaped and friendly people. I will check out other festivities there.
Great for a beginner skiier. Good lessons offered. Very small,fast runs. Nice if you live nearby. SCASDA offers IM skiing that has great discounts for kids.
I work here year round and absolutely love use. This place is a great staple in the community. They host so many festivals in the summer and only ski resort in central PA.
Over the years I have been to Tussy for snow tubing, fishing, par 3 golf, to watch movies and for Wing Fest. They have everything there and more. In my experience they have the best setvice and attention to detail. They are very community involved and have great commitment to putting on the best show whatever they are doing.
Small ski resort with a single lift. Reasonable rates. Friendly staff. The place is so small that they dont even sell shirts with their own logo. Good place to teach someone to ski locally.
I was here for the Rothrock Trailfest and Tussey did an ok job. However they made people buy tickets that could be exchanged for beer or food. This doesnt sound too bad until you find out that they dont accept cards at the ticket booth and their ATM is out of service. I feel bad for all the food truck vendors that came out as Im sure their sales were impacted.
In the winter time, this is a great place for winter recreation. In the summer time, they host WingFest - a chicken wing contest with live performances and beautiful views of Happy Valley.
Spectacular place! Free admission. Beautiful sites. Go-karts, mini golf, driving range, 3par golf course, batting cages, beautiful pond for fishing and paddle boating and in winter, ski and snowboard..very affordable and cleanly and friendly!!?
The tubing Hill was a little scary that day due to the fact that it was icy and fast. It would have been better a different day. But still fun and clean facility.
Cant complain..Id say its great for a small resort in the east. Ski patrol was friendly and checked in on us every now n then:)
I Was there for a dance show. It was great weather and the dance show was wonderful. Tussey mountain was beautiful.
Nice little ski slope. 5 minutes away from State College. Last few years weather was not cooperating. But when its snows its really fun place to be.
The location was really beautiful. We were right next to a lake and there were some boats and life jackets to do boating. It had a little space with swings for children. Will recommend.
I had a really great visit here with family. We went mini golfing, go karting and we hit golf balls. To do all of that was not very expensive at all. It was totally worth it for all of the fun we had.
A nice 4 Seasons family fun center. The mountain is small, but its super close to Penn State and even on the CATA route. There is a cafeteria and full service bar onsite. Winter sports arent all Tussey is known for. Mini golf, driving range, batting cages, go carts and par 3 golf too. Dont forgot summer movies, concerts, OctoberFest, Celtic Fling.
Went for wingfest, great venu with adult beverages, and wing vendors. 2 bands per night! Everything is outdoors, you have to buy tickets for wings. Great event with things for adults and kids.
Small but they have some great specials. Ive never had to wait for the lift there. The bar at the bottom is decent, and even has Rusty Rail beer on tap right now
Tussey Mountain wing fest was a great event. Good food, drinks and live music. Will definitely be attending a few more weeks this year!
Always a good time and great staff
Tussey Mtn is a great place for a catered event - they have excellent food, a well stocked bar and ample space for entertainment including a dance floor. Looking forward to next time.
Went to play mini golf. It was pretty cheap (only $5 a person) and the course was nothing fancy but still had fun! Staff was very nice.
We enjoyed playing mini golf here, although they only had 1 course. They also have skiing here with ski lifts, batting cage, golf, etc. Was close to our hotel.
WingFest... yummy fries and live music, they even have a non-smoking seating section, completely outdoors, ride the lift up the mountain for a spectacular view and you might spy nesting baby deer in the tall grass below.
We went for the mini golf. It was great we went back again the next day. They also have skateboarding they have go karts. Its not just a wintertime destination.
Celtic Fest., The Bands were Great,BUT .......... WAIT FOR IT ........again this year no VENDORS !!!!!, just the same thing they had last year !! The onlyFood was Tussey Mountains pretty much short of hot dogs, and walking tacos, andAnother food vendor placed on the other side of the event !!!!, You NEEDED TICKETS !!TO PURCHASE EVERYTHING !!!!!!, Food wasEXPENSIVE !!! and so was the ALCOHOL !!!,The bad thing about that was the priceStay the same but the (CUPS GOT SMALLER)through out the evening $5.00 for a 8 oz.Miller lite, $6.00 and up to $8.00 for anything foreign !!, $5.00 for a 1-2 oz shot !!!!, I would understand if the place had more Bands,and Vendors. The JOB JONNIES / BATHROOMS ,you had to hike uphill to get to them !!!!!, Dont get me WRONG !!!!! I LOVED THEMUSIC AND DANCING, !!!!! you cant find this kind of thing close in this AREA !!!!!!!BUT DONT UPCHARGE / OVERPRICE EVERYTHING or not let Vendors in !!!You would / could make more money this way then LOSING Business.PLEASE ADD MORE VENDORS AND LOWER THE PRICES !!!!!!
Fun place go-Karting, mini gulf, and thus even have a skate park. The mountain also hosts summer events like the cleric festival and wing weekend. Be sure to check then out.
Horrible Horrible service. They force face mask. Everyone was very rude and nasty when i was try to get my ticket. Which i never got cause there illegal rules about facemask.Wish the worst on this place
Great place. Not just skiing. They have par 3 golf , driving range,mini golf, batting cages, skate park,go carts, catered events, concerts,wing fest and more
Great facility and fun place to take family and friends! Lots of activities available from par 3 golf to go karts. Great place to hold events too.
Visited in the summer for Wingfest. They do a good job making the most of the space. The food and drink selection were pretty good, as was the entertainment.
Went there for the par 3 golf, staff was really nice and the par 3 course was set up nice. I was able to bring my girlfriend since shes a beginner and it was perfect.
Husbands work picnic, it was great! The food was good and we loved the go karts. The pavilion was perfect.
I took a Penn State Course KINES 11A which is a skiing course with Pennsylvania State University. I ended up dropping the course. They guaranteed that if I drop the course, I can get refund. I followed the procedure for getting the refund but they never got back to me or gave me a refund that they had guaranteed. This is extremely unprofessional. I sent multiple emails and called them multiple times and they just dont respond.
Great place for a wing fest/outdoor concert. Awesome views of Happy Valley & Penn State, without all the hustle & bustle!
Movies on the Mountain is a great family event in the summer that is hosted at Tussey. The parking is easy, concessions are fairly priced, and the family friendly environment is great for summer nights.
Par 3 course, good for short game practice, greens vary in quality
Band was way too loud for venue. She it extremely difficult to order/obtain food from food trucks during festival. Also, the food from Brazilian food truck was unimaginative and low quality.
Blue knob is cheaper and much nicer
My visit to Tussey Mountain was for Wing Fest during July. Parking was free. The event was on the mountain side so there is always a hill to walk on. Getting out can be troublesome because if you have to turn left, it can take a while because of the high volume of traffic. They sometimes have traffic officers to help though.
A lot of fun activities to choose from and very friendly staff. Have gone multiple times for various events. Have never been disappointed. Love Tussey Mountain!
Good for beginners or conveniences sake, and not a lot more
I went to see the movie in the mountain, it was Moana. Food and drinks were cheaper than expected but the turnout was much, much more than we expected. If you go to this make sure you bring chairs if you want to see over everyone.
Went for Oktoberfest, was a great time! Food, drinks, music were all very well organized. The staff were very helpful, and very organized as well!
A nice place for central PA.
Decent resort, but lacking in some slope variety. However, wing fest duri g the summer is a whole lot of fun.
Fun on the snow tubing slope. Third lane was super fast! Go early for a better price and shorter lines.
Tussey mountain is a great place to take kids and have some good ol family fun. The go-carts are a hit as well as the putt putt.
Went here for their wing fest. Found it to be over priced and crowded.
The Wingfest events are awesome! Live bands, cold drinks,and the best wings from all over the area!
It was awesome snow tubing was so fun 5/5 it awesome I really recommend you try snow tubing I love the fire in the ski building it so awesome thank you so much for the passes
Alot of fun on the Part 3 course. Beautiful scenery! $15 for 9 holes.
Went for movie on the mountain. Free event with well proceed snacks and beverages. Sounds and picture quality were good and had a good time.
Great family fun
Nice family resort, with a fair amount to do no matter the season. Skiing is a bit pricey for the elevation, conditions, and trails.
Bluegrass and BBQ was a great time at the amphitheater. Lots of delicious food and good music.
I stopped to see if I could access a local ham radio repeater nearby. It turns our that I learned that the repeater was directly behind me.
Enjoyed the inexpensive snow tubing. Friendly staff
My family spent the afternoon playing minigolf, driving go karts, at the driving range, and the batting cages. We had a great time!
Great location with many fun activities, went for wings fest on a Thursday night and had a blast with friends and listening to music
My kids love to go to the skate park and mini golf/go-karts. A great way to spend a fun family afternoon.
It was a breath taking night under the stars to watch a movie with good friends and family. Highly recommend investing some time at this venue.
Great Bar, they have a small mountain but tried so hard to overcome the lack of snow in the winter of 2020. They made it work.
The kids and I had a great time at the batting cages and go karts. The facility is clean and fairly priced.
Great race hill. Lodge is in desperate need of updating. Food is ok. Great for beginner skiers and tubing.
I visit Tussey every year for Wing Fest, and the restaurants that come always have great wings, and the music is pretty solid
Friendly staff, and not overly crowded. We had a blast!
Great place for social events. Area is big and accommodates thousands of people. Always have a great time here!
Here for MacAdmins conference, had a very nice time. Staff is helpful and pleasent. Good food , great beer.
I was there for the wing festival they hold and it was a very fun time! Great music food and drink!
Great people, friendly, work with you. Small resort but well worth your time; good prices.
Very nice staff, have been tubing here with friends. The staff made sure everyone was safe, but had fun with the guests
Just not good day for us. Ice at the chair lift exit, ice at the top. Maintenance needs to improve.
Great place for year round fun. Attendants for the driving range were especially pleasant and helpful
I went for wingfest and it was clean and had great entertainment! Staff was friendly. An excellent area for an event :)
My family and I visited Tussey Mountain in September for some mini golf and go karts. We had a great time!
Was there for a benefit concert. Was a great outdoor space. Restrooms, food and drink were provided. Great music and weather.
Wing Fest is always a lot of fun, with great local restaurants competing for the best wings, along with some local bands.
I went here for a good truck convention, and the selection was abysmal at best. I love the location. Wingfest is much bettet
Wingfest was a good time, just git there a bit late. Good selection of beer and mixed drinks
Had a great and relaxing night on the mountain watching the Clarks and some other bands at Rock for the Cure! It was a great time!
Wing Fest Summer Nights With Live Bands
I went there for a farm credit meal and we rode go-karts played mini golf and there was a batting cage that I did, I had lots of fun
Great job following all Covid measures and keeping the place well maintained and groomed.
It’s hard to have a ski mountain in PA — the weather is too variable. Tussey is a nice night of skiing for the only place in town.
Tussey mountain is pretty great place. There is a lot to do there in the summer and the winter. I like their events and the fun center
Went to wing fest didnt like buying tickets was cool. Got kicked off go carts for racing and bumping
Its a small ski resort, but its family friendly and they have stuff going on all year round there
Clean and respectful staff. Great experience. Attended wings fest here which was a blast!
Went for the movie on the mountain, and it was wonderful! Got to watch the sun set from the mountain and enjoyed a free movie with free popcorn!
Was a nice place was there for a beer expo. Enjoyed my time during the event and it had a nice setup.
Was there for a graduation party at the pavilion by the pond and everything was set up nicely. It was a great time and a nice venue.
Oktoberfest celebration was wonderful - looking forward to trying out the slopes come winter!
Very nice Oktoberfest. A little on the small side, but enjoyable nonetheless, with nice folks all round.
Spent many summer hours here at the batting cages, and winter hours here on the slopes. Love this place!
Never been skiing here. But wing night and other summer festivities are always good.
Good cheap place to ride. Even have a decent terrain park set up at the bottom. Skatepark is sweeeet
Fun place. My son learned to ski here but place needs remodeling and cleaning up.
Great snow tubing! The early bird special is better than Blue Knob.
Lots of fun things to do: go karts, mini golf, driving range, Wings Fest, and free movie screenings.
Movie on the mountain was great. Star wars was fun, but the sound kept cutting out periodically.
We went to see movies on the mountain. It was so much fun, and free popcorn? You cant lose!
It was summer so idk if my review is fair. Looked run down but A for effort. Mini golf and go karts.
Wingfest with Hybrid Ice is always awesome. They rokked Tussey! Thanks DTM Dantheman
Nice place for a familly day . Fishing,skate park, go cart,mini golf ect... they got everything you need
Good spot for a quick ski. Not out west, but friendly, and convenient. Good slope!
We played par 3 golf. Area was clean, staff was friendly, and we enjoyed ourselves.
Not bad nice place and glad its a closer resort the hills are nice and you can go tubing as well ..
Went to wing fest here in 2018. It was enjoyable and the food was delicious!
Friendly staff and awesome tubing fun for the whole family and very reasonable pricing
It was a nice time. Loved the band, enjoyed simply hanging out in the grass.
We were outside for our event. Nice parking. Everything else was done ourselves
Went to Celtic fest. Was a good time. Plenty of parking and great venue.
Went for go carts and mini golf. Beautiful views and lots of fun.
Just have to know what youre getting into when you go. Small and expensive for a day outing but pleasant place with a few slopes.
Learned to ski here years ago. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly.
Had fun tubing ! Small slopes, but prices make up for it.

2022-03-16The mountains here are so beautiful. In the summer there’s mini golf, a range and a par 3 course (I believe).My favorite thing they do is Wingfest, where you pay $10 to get in and $1 per ticket. Wings were 2 for 3 tickets last year. Not bad for Covid prices! Whichever competitor has the most tickets wins. While eating chicken, jam out to whatever band is on stage.In the winter, the ski slopes are ok. Not too many trails to choose from and they don’t seem to groom the little they do have, so it can get icy.

2021-02-01Overall I had a great experience. To start locating the general place is simple but could definitely use more signage for literally everything. Just park in the big parking lot are start walking around. You will eventually find what youre looking for. Most of the staff was pleasant but unfortunately there was a Karen working there today who didnt seem like she wanted to be there. Other than that my family and myself had a wonderful time making memories.

2022-03-08Very good! Getting rental skis and a lift ticket can be a bit pricey (around $85 if I remember correctly) but thats not bad for a ski place. Ski/board boots, helmets, and ski poles are free to rent too! The lodge food was very good, though Im not sure of their vegetarian/vegan options. It was also fairly cheap, with about 10-11 dollars for a meal with an entree, side, and drink. Snow slopes are well tended, and the ski patrol are very helpful. I had a bad fall on Deer Run (From inexperience, not the fault of Tussy), and I had two separate Ski Patrol people ask me if I was alright afterwards. Overall, very good experience! Would definitely recommend.

2021-06-27We went the go karts this afternoon. Actually the weather is pretty good. Usually it takes six dollars per round, each takes for about four minutes. The service is pretty good but some of the seatbelts are worn off so maybe they should renew the seatbelt.(suggestion)

2021-02-24I like Tussey a lot. It is my home mountain, but there are some downsides. The conditions are icy much of the time, but occasionally you’ll get some powder. The mountain isn’t that big, but it’s still fun! If you’ve never gone skiing, do everyone a favor and don’t try anything crazy. Try to stick to the easier runs, such as Deer Run or the Little Bear. If you like to do tricks, they will most likely have something to grind on or jump off of, so have fun! If you are, by chance, visiting during the summer, then you can go mini golfing, go karting, go the skate park, go to the batting cages, or the driving range. Mini golf course is fun, and has water flowing throughout the course. Go karts are great, but some of the karts are uneven in power (pick the dark blue one, with the double seat). Skate park has some good features, such as a half pipe and some drops.

2020-09-06Played the short par 3 golf course and it was very fun. Not many people and for $15 that can’t really be beat. Greens could use some work but for $15 I wasn’t excepting much. Great bored at home activity.

2018-01-26Really fun place to spend the afternoon at, especially when the weather is clear. Went on a Friday afternoon and it was very quiet, and the snow was awesome. Decided to take a ski lesson, and the instructor (Andrew) was very patient with us and taught us the basics in a very efficient manner. The price is fairly reasonable for the courses available. However, the beginner course at the top of the mountain stems from a route that higher level skiers take, hence its rather dangerous. Its also rather steep at the beginning of the course, so beginners have to take note if you are going to the top of the mountain. Lastly, it gets really crowded when the school kids arrive for their lessons.Nonetheless, it was a really fun day and Id definitely recommend this place if youre in State College and looking for fun activities.

2022-02-12The chair lift is very dangerous!!!! The staff operating the lift is very unprofessional and careless. The worst nightmare you can have in a ski resort. My child and I got hit by the chair lift from the back and had bad injuries even at the beginner level. THERE IS NO PROTECTION while sitting on the lift!!! DO NOT ski there if you are a beginner. They should provide surface lift rather than arial lift for beginners. I wouldnt be surprised if they got sued for injuring their customers. The parking lot is gross and full of mud.
