What Skiers Say About Blue Mountain
Blue Mountain attracts a wide range of visitors from beginners through to advanced skiers and snowboarders, with many reviewers highlighting it as the largest and most accessible resort in Southern Ontario, particularly for those travelling from Toronto and the GTA. The village at the base receives consistent praise for its atmosphere, dining options, and additional activities beyond skiing. Reviewers repeatedly mention that weekdays offer a much better experience than weekends, when lift queues become significantly longer and crowds impact enjoyment. Snow conditions are variable, with artificial snowmaking maintaining coverage but reviewers frequently noting icy patches and limited natural powder. Pricing is a common criticism, with many users stating lift tickets, food, and accommodation are expensive relative to what the resort offers compared to larger destinations.

The runs are amazing when the snow is good, if its the fake granular snow you can expect giant mounds all the way down the hill from people stopping.
Food is pricey and very average in the chalet but there are tons of different options in the village. And the village itself is very nice and worth just walking through.
Overall its a great place to snowboard and ski, its just getting hard to justify the drive more than once a year since lift tickets have gotten so pricey!
For Ontario skiing Blue Moutain is very good. It gets busy at times so enjoy the company you are with.
