A ski resort's overall star rating displayed here is not calculated based on a simple average but takes several factors, including the age of a review, into account.
i wish there were more intro level boxes and rails. it's like you need to be intermediate skill at minimum to try anything, and no one's on the advanced features/hits. the rest of the resort, It's busy, what can you do?

What a garbage place to ski its completely overpriced for what you get. the village tries to act like it’s something great but if you actually look at the roofs, the shingles have been falling off for the last five years The restaurants are absolutly Awful and disgustingly overpriced, every single one of them it’s a total dump. A complete waste of money do not go there!

It seems that management has left the organization to the onsite staff. It is obvious that they are not up to the task. Sadly the hill is becoming increasingly unfriendly and the staff has given up trying to help. They are not engaged in their work and probably don’t have a clear vision of their tasks. I’ve been a pass holder since 1990 and conditions were so good back then. Too bad Blue, it was fun while it lasted. I feel bad for young families.

I must say, I am experienced to expert skier who has been skiing since I was 2 years old and have skied on many world known ski resorts in Europe like Kitzbuhl, Ischgl, Obersdorf..... I live in the GTA and my closest ski resort is BlueMountain. To be fair, I do not need always to have 11 km long piste to have fun. Blue Mountain is sometimes boring because of the short piste but now that I am 45 Blue Mountain is good enough. What I can't wrap my mind around is the daily lift ticket price! It is astronomical compared to European gazzilion times better ski resorts, even Mont Tremblant which is by miles better ski resort is cheaper than Blue Mountain. The end result, I am not going skiing! sad, sad, sad. I just can not justify $159 + HST for one day of skiing at mediocre ski resort, I don't care how nice the village is, I come for skiing and skiing alone. Blue Mountain management has wrong strategy here, they think to invite people with higher incomes to the resort by elevating lift ticket prices! What a none sense! People with tons of money will go to Europe or Whistler, and people with plenty of money will go to Mont Tremblant instead of Blue Mountain. The end result: Blue Mountain has become sad place to ski. Resorts are selling apartments, less people going skiing.... I can only imagine why. Blue Mountain Management, you failed!

Awful terrain maintenance!

Hills are decent but the price gouging is beyond ridiculous. One lift running & 7 trails - $94! overcrowded, parking is full with cars double parking- can’t imagine what this place looks like when all trails are open. One run on the coaster for 2 adults and 4 kids was $176 and the person in front of us rode the brakes the whole run and we got no refund or another ride. People here are clueless.

Stayed for the weekend spent about $700. Non of the activities were included had to pay extra to actually do activities which we found absolutely ridiculous. Also, we paid that much money to be able to have a parking spot; left for a few hours to go skating and came back to absolute chaos. Not impressed with the parking or the fact that you have spend hundreds even after you’ve spent so much just to be there for 2 days. Ridiculous.

tThey call it an Alpine resort, is a big stretch of imagination, when you get to the top you find farmers fields!
I don't know how they can call it blue mountain, there is no mountain.

my son broke is collarbone on a small rail, because it wasn't waxed properly. (Slid, then stuck, throwing him)
While at the hospital his ski equipment was left at the hill. After getting home we noticed and filed a report (on line) as it was the only way to do so. We kept getting updates saying items not found, but they are still looking. Friends went up 2 weeks later and found the items. Funny how they took the same description and found it but emploies can't. Next day got another update saying they are still searching and items not found!! I found out, after 15-30 days the lost items are then disposed of, either donated (or taken??) Seems like a pretty good system for them, seeing that our items lost were over $600.
Also. We have someone else's equipment that was accidentally taken, and we are trying to reach out to the hill but nowhere to report a FOUND item. I don't have faith to return this item to lost and found but will reach out on multi media instead!
