Not a huge domain to ski, but it's just fine for a day or 2 at max. Lots of restaurants available too, although the quality and healthiness of the foods are quite low, I advise you bring your own food and eat it there. I was very much surprised by the heated seats in one of the lift, such a great idea.

Went on a public holiday but wasn't too crowded. There are free shuttles to the resort from Echigo-Yuzawa station frequently which was convenient. The facilities are modern and clean, and well heated. Big spacious change rooms with lockers and toilets. Many places to choose from to eat at various courses of the resort. Highly recommended to everyone!!
Great resort with a massive top to bottom run (if the bottom part has enough snow). Nice variety of runs and on a powdery day, can be pretty good to board on. One of the only ski resorts to have a lift that incorporates both gondola AND chair lift in one. Normally will take 6 people in a chair lift and about 10 in a gondola and the rate is around 4 chair lifts to one gondola so would be faster if you just take the chair lift. Not a long ride compared to some other ropeway/gondola systems so if in a rush to get going, recommend queuing for the chair lift. Staff seems a bit oblivious to queuing though, massive queue waiting for the gondola yet they were still allowing 'private' groups get in; a queue of 50 people and letting 2 people in a 10 person gondola doesn't look too logical. Slopes are varied though the lifts seems to be under some form of renaming; they used to be numbered but the map indicates them as alphabetical characters causing a bit of confusing when trying to find your bearings; hopefully this will be resolved once they have finally renamed everything properly. A number of restaurants, I chose kerun because they had steak but seems like New Maruyama also has it. Overall a great place for those after extremely long runs from top to bottom. Has a number of tree runs too. Free shuttle bus from Echigo Yuzawa Station as well, taking around 10minutes making it pretty easy access.
Fantastic new gondola/seater combo lift! And renewals on the way. At the top of the gondola, check out the Austria Snow House, at the bottom, the brand new ressort center!
Nice resort, mix of old and new lifts. Good riders can do all the runs in 3 hours. Lots of off trail places that are not forbidden. A bit strange lift connection areas and not long runs. Definitely worth a day of sking and bording in the Uzawa area. Less people than Gala.
