Ski-in/ski-out or a short walk?

Among the places to stay we found at Black Mountain, 1 place to stay is about a 5-minute walk or less from the bottom of a lift. “Ski-in/ski-out” and “slopeside” are labels each property gives itself, and they can mean a run past the door or a groomed path to the nearest chair. We don't repeat the label; we measure the walk to a lift's bottom station and how close a mapped run passes. Before you book, ask the property which run reaches the door and whether it is groomed all season.

What the words mean

Places to stay, closest first

Condo complexes and rental homes are often missing from the open data we measure, so the real number near the lifts is usually higher. The mountain's own lodging pages list them.

Good to know

How many places to stay are within walking distance of the lifts at Black Mountain?

We measured 19 places to stay around Black Mountain in open map data. 1 is about a 5-minute walk or less from the bottom of a lift, 1 within about 10 minutes and 2 within about 20. The rest are farther out.

Is there ski-in/ski-out lodging at Black Mountain?

No place to stay we found sits right beside a mapped run here, but 1 place to stay is about a 5-minute walk or less from the bottom of a lift. Any ski-in/ski-out claim is the property's own: ask how the run reaches the door.

Which lift has the most lodging close by?

Summit Double: 1 of the places to stay we list are within about 10 minutes on foot of its bottom station.

Is Black Mountain worth a summer trip?

The map shows 1 trailhead within about 4 miles; Jackson Town Pond 1.8 miles from the main base. Lift-served biking and summer rides depend on the operator's season, so check its site for dates.

How high does Black Mountain go?

The highest point on our map is about 2,260 feet, and the lowest lift starts near 1,230 feet, a drop of about 1,030 feet. Elevations come from the map's terrain model, so treat them as close, not exact.

How do you work out the minutes?

Along a mapped walking route from each place to stay to the bottom station of the nearest chairlift, gondola or tram you can walk to, at an easy pace. Where the map has no route we give the distance as the crow flies instead of minutes. How we measure.
