Best Ski Resort for Snowboarders in Ontario: Horseshoe Resort - Snowboarders Rating 4.14

Horseshoe Resort is a hit with snowboarders of all levels. A user who is an advanced snowboarder said the terrain parks are "super cool," with features like boxzilla and snow cross courses with integrated rails and jumps. The well-groomed runs allow for "long swooping carves" according to Shmev, while Noah particularly enjoyed the tree runs during his first visit. It's especially brilliant for families and beginners - Mike loved the chair lift on the kids' hill which helped children get comfortable before tackling bigger runs. Some boarders note there are flat spots to watch out for, but the efficient lifts keep you riding all day.

#2 Mt St Louis-Moonstone - Snowboarders Rating 3.97

Snowboarders at Mt St Louis-Moonstone consistently praise the resort's terrain park offerings. A Snomad user who's an expert snowboarder mentioned it's "everything Blue Mountain wishes it could be in the terrain park department." The resort shines for progression, with multiple users highlighting how it's an ideal spot to learn and develop boarding skills. One advanced rider who's had a season pass for years fondly recalls it as where they first learned to snowboard. While weekends can get crowded, the efficient lift system (including the much-loved 8-person chairlift with heated seats) keeps things moving, making it a favourite destination for Ontario's boarding community.

#3 Glen Eden - Snowboarders Rating 3.88

Glen Eden is a hit with snowboarders of all levels. Our reviewers mention it's particularly strong for those learning the ropes, with several beginner-friendly slopes that aren't intimidating. A user who is an advanced snowboarder said the terrain park is "exceptional" when open, with staff keeping the lips clean and plenty of features to session. The shorter hill height means you can get loads of laps in, especially when focusing on park features. The local park crowd creates a great community vibe, similar to a skate park atmosphere. While it can get crowded and icy at times, proper timing yields a brilliant day out.
