East coast places to snowboard for a beginner?

Question

I am looking for suggestions on places for a beginner snowboarder to snowboard on the east coast that is not expensive, offers adult lessons and is close to an airport serviced by major carriers.

Answer 1

If the Poconos in PA are close to Philly (I have no idea), you could try Camelback, Shawnee, or Bear Mountain. I know Camelback has a good beginner slope with a lot of teen/young adult snowboarder lumps on it. lol. Camelback also has the Burton Learn to Ride program, and in that case they probably have adult lessons.

Answer 2

I would go to McIntyre ski area in Manchester New Hampshire they have a great beginner area and awsome beginner lessons but this place is very very small so if you have never snowboarded i would say go to McInyre if you have then go to Pats Peak ski area in Henniker New Hampshire its a little bigger but now a big or difficult area by any means as for the airport McIntyre is literally mins. from the airport and pats peak is probably 45-50 mins. away from the airport here are the website for both these areas...
