What Skiers Say About Mt St Louis-Moonstone

Mt St Louis-Moonstone is frequently visited by beginner to advanced skiers and snowboarders from the Greater Toronto Area, with many reviews highlighting it as a local alternative to Blue Mountain. The most consistent positive theme is the resort's snowmaking capability, with numerous users noting reliable snow coverage even when nearby resorts struggle. Reviewers repeatedly mention modern, fast chairlifts including a new heated 8-person lift, well-groomed runs, and quality terrain parks suitable for various skill levels. Common criticisms include short run length typical of Ontario hills, high food prices, crowding on weekends particularly during school holidays, and expensive lift tickets relative to the limited vertical.

Mt. St Louis Moonstone is rather nostalgic to me, it being the first place I learnt how to ski. Moved onto snowboarding now, the hills there are versatile, with options for all levels. Unfortunately, the food quality has suffered while the prices go up. The staff are helpful and friendly, my sister dropped her gloves off the chairlift by accident and they happily retrieved them for her. The memories made on those hills are priceless & without regret. That being said, memories can be made without breaking the bank or having to deal with rude, unsupervised children on crowded slopes. Overall bang for your buck makes this rating a 3/5

MSLM has the best snow machines in Ontario, this is important on seasons we dont get much snowfall. The terrain park is also quite good and well maintained. The runs are quite short but that is to be expected in Ontario. In general their equipment is more modern than other Ontario locations. My only real gripe is that it feels more expensive than it should be, but realistically all of the mountains in eastern Canada feel that way.

Love the new 8-pack lift with heated seats! Lighting for night-skiing is the best in the area. But it all gets skied out too quickly.

Great resort with a variety of slopes to suit different levels of skiers/snowboarders.Always has a lot of snow, fairly short lines, fast chair lift and friendly staff. Great place to go if you like to hit up the terrain park or just learn how to cruise down the hill.

We love riding at Louis. The terrain parks are excellent and have lots of options for park goers of all levels. The groomed runs have a good amount of variety. The chairlifts all run very smoothly and its nice to ride the heated chair. All staff are very friendly and accommodating. We come a few times a season and always look forward to coming back.

Definitely my favourite place to snowboard in Ontario. Lift lines are efficient, especially during the busiest of times, due to their 8 person chairlift (which has heated seats, amazing) and has had the best quality of snow Ive experienced in Ontario so far. The cafeteria can be busy and the food is pricier compared to other places Ive been, but they have plenty of seating. The staff are very kind and were able to squeeze my boyfriend and I in for a last minute sharpen and wax. Based on my past experiences with them, I never hesitate to make the 1.5 hour drive out to them.

Great local resort with a few great terrain park. Vertical isnt too bad, and easy to get to. As I said, its just a local resort. Not overly worth making an overnight trip out of coming here. Its pretty small, but the runs are well groomed. World class terrain park crew keeps things top notch all season.

Great runs and park. Sadly the apre is lacking (food isnt great at all- fries are the only thing worth eating, and the lunch ladies seem to mow down a few as they serve you). Owners and staff arent very accommodating either- tend to be quite rude. Sad. It could be way better.

It has high quality heated lifts and Ive never experienced any slows here! Minimal lines. There isnt a significant increase in difficulty between Blues and Blacks, so if youre looking for more challenging groomers this isnt the place. Overall though, very fun and chill

Mt St Louis-Moonstone is everything Blue Mountain wishes it could be in the terrain park department and doesnt gather nearly as large a crowd. Ski and Ride here.

It was nice to ski at Mt St Louis Moonstone! I rented my skiing equipment and had purchased tickets to ski on a certain date but there was a storm en route to the resort, so I was able to reschedule to a different day at a $16 CAD fee per ticket. It also rained as a surprise to us on the rescheduled date but it didnt impact the experience much. Checking into the slopes was easy and the staff were very helpful. Unfortunately while taking a bathroom break midday and leaving my rental skis outside on the designated rack for about 5 minutes, they were taken by accident or stolen, however the staff helped me and I was not held responsible for the missing skiis. I was given another pair of skiis and continued my day. In the evening the lights on the slopes were beautiful but the biting cold and rain became difficult to tolerate on the slow lifts. All in all it was a really amazing day on the slopes for me and I enjoyed my stay! Thank you to the excellent and accommodating staff at Moonstone!

Its a quality repair for the price, cheaper than blue mountain which is very popular in ontario. The lift lines arent too busy, weekends are busier than weekdays of course. the heated 8 person lift chair is fantastic, goes by quick and gives you a little extra warmth. lots of food nearby and decent rentals and packages for lift ticket and rentals. snow is pretty good and they usually make snow as well

My wife and I visited Mount St Louis last year and overall it was not bad, though amenities felt outdated.

Slopes were fun and snowboard instructor for my wife taught a few good basics but when we got hungry there was not much to eat.

Price point is not bad though so next time were going to pack our lunch and dinner with us!

I grew up skiing with Ravens ski club every week at Blue Mountain, but Mount St. Louis is now my local #1. MSLM invested the most in snowmaking equipment before the other Ontario resorts. Even in 2023, when my friends who had passes at other resorts they couldnt use, I made it to MSLM 9 times!

I love the new heated quad 8 chairlift, which is both comfortable and fast. I also love the beginner terrain park and the ski cross style park. However, I wish The Outback (with one of the easier terrain parks and the ski cross area) was open on weekdays.

My other complaint, of course, is that the runs are too short, but they really did the best they could with what they have.

Finally, I am impressed with the food options, like ramen! Beavertails are a nice touch too.

This is a great resort for kids!

I also had a fantastic freestyle lesson there once because I wanted to learn boxes and jumps.

As far as I am concerned, this is the best option if you live in Toronto, unless you have time to sleepover at Blue (which has higher runs) and have verified their snow conditions in advance.

Great conditions and runs but wish there was music playing. In comparison to other resorts in the area this one is the most enjoyable for experienced skiers/ snowboarders but accommodation is kind of limited.

Best snow making in Ontario. This resort is a gem when the weather isn't the best. Lots of runs here but not as long as other resorts. Definitely give it a shot.
