I have lived in the area all my life and always went to devils head, never had stayed there but always enjoyed the slopes, especially half price lift ticket night. Not untill i went somewhere else (during school) did i realize how good i had always had it out my back door at Devils Head. Sure the lodge is old, but if you pay alittle more for the new rooms next to the lodge you can get more updated rooms. Great fun, good times, and the dells aren't far away for time at the bars.

Some friends and I did the 'Chicago' package deal and were all extremely pleased.
The rooms are very dated but who's there to hang out in the room anyways. The heater worked. The shower worked. The TV worked. Didn't really care about much else. We were there to hit the slopes.
The package included food vouchers for 2 breakfasts and 1 dinner. The breakfast buffet was great and had a huge assortment of your typical breakfast foods. The dinner voucher was good for up to $25 so we each had to pay an upcharge of $5 each for the steaks we ordered.
Everyone that works there(restaurant/bar staff, front desk, security) were all friendly and helpful.
The many different runs they offer keep it interesting but be prepared to do a lot of walking from lift to lift as they are spaced a good distance from each other.
One of the things I was looking forward to was the outdoor hot tubs they offer but when we went to check them out they were non-functional and it didn't look like they were going to be fixed anytime soon as they were covered deep in snow. This was a disappointment. However, the fire pit was going strong and was nice place to sit and have a cocktail or three.
Overall, Devil's Head was a blast and we all will definitely be going back soon.

Great skiing for the beginner. The Inn stay left alot to be desired. They had outdated rooms rooms and the water for showering was down right cold.(I think the swimming pool was warmer.)The managements idea of an in room mini bar was 2 warm bottles of Dansani water on the beareau which you'd be charged 2.75 a piece for. The actual mini bar was a case for a refrigerator to set in, which was no longer there, that was completely empty. Only 2 places to eat on grounds mid week. Cafeteria and alternating restaurants (not open simultaniously).Attendants were great, as were the instructors,it was the faciliteies them selves which were lack luster. Ski there, but lodge up the road in my opinion.
