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.

Had a lot of fun at Blue and will be back! Beaver Tails at the top of the hill is a huge plus. The meals are okay but the snacks and treats are great. Lot's of parking, easy to get your passes/rentals and get your days started quickly. Hills are super accessible from the village accommodations. Decent range of runs for Ontario.

A good local resort here that has efficient lifts, well groomed trails, with a fun village atmosphere. Weekends are way too busy - I’d recommend going out during the week. Great night skiing as well with 31 runs. Sunday night skiing is also advantageous as weekend crowds dissipate!

runs are really choppy, lots of dug up snow and bumps that make it very difficult to pick up any speed without being sent flying. RARELY if ever groomed properly. lift lines are usually very fast, never waited longer than 5-10 mins. lots of options for dining and drinks. not many organized afters, let alone actually fun ones. there are pubs in the village you can go to though

The best ski resort in Southern Ontario. Highest vertical, most lifts, biggest village, most hotels, most restaurants. Grooming done twice a day, even has night skiing. Monday to Friday not crowded but on weekends too popular. Extensive snow making assures excellent snow coverage.

Love the village here and the bus services. Very busy though, especially on main lifts. Only one or two green runs so newbies might not get much out of the mountain. But advanced skiers might find it too easy also.

Not bad. Med team outdated. Very costy services . Yearly pass recommended . groomers usually are doing good job. All in all friendly underpaid though personnel. Drinks and coffee in generally low quantity and quite expensive for what they're really offering.

Runs are very well groomed, though skiers are not very friendly towards snowboarders. Once on the chair lift a skier was bashing snowboarders with me sitting right beside her. And on a second occasion, a skier purposely run into my friend (who was in his 60s), after missing me.

Super friendly staff, okay prices, quite a bit more than skiiing in Europe but to be expected. Stuck mostly to the groomed trails. Lines were okay the weekend I went but many people said it was a quite weekend compared to most

I've always had a great experience coming here ! When conditions are good and there's lots of snow it's a fun welcoming place to snowboard. Been coming here for years :)

We always go to Blue Mountain for the night skiing and really enjoy ourselves! Slope are well maintained and staff is friendly. Some lines can be long during peak season but they are managed well and move efficiently. We enjoy our time at Blue Mountain and have been returning visitors for the past few years!
