THE VIBE

Brandywine is the sister resort to Boston Mills, located just a few miles away in the Cuyahoga Valley. It mirrors the same modest vertical but leans harder into terrain parks, with some of the best freestyle features in Ohio. If you have an Epic Pass and live in Northeast Ohio, this plus Boston Mills is your season combo — buy one pass, ride both hills.

Best For

  • ✓Ohio park riders and jibbers
  • ✓Families splitting time with Boston Mills
  • ✓After-work night skiing from Cleveland or Akron

Skip If

  • ✗You think 264 feet of vertical is a joke (it kind of is)
  • ✗You want tree skiing or powder
