6 Budget-Friendly Mountain Escapes in the U.S.

Although it was voted 2025's Best Ski Town by USA Today readers, North Conway remains relatively affordable among U.S. mountain towns.

North Conway is situated just south of Mount Washington, the tallest peak in New England. The town's Cranmore Resort boasts snow sports fun for the entire family, including 60 trails, snowboarding terrain, and a tubing park. The average adult lift ticket price is around $80. For laid-back views of the local mountain scenery, consider booking passage on the Conway Scenic Railroad. Tickets for the one-hour snow train tour start at $27 for adults, with reduced or free tickets for children. Nearby, visitors can take advantage of tax-free outlet shopping at Settlers Green, which also offers special discounts for senior shoppers on Tuesdays.
