Sadly I didn't take any photos of the food, because it didn't last long on the table! It was absolutely delicious, and fairly priced for a "mountain resort" restaurant. Major points for being able to accommodate gluten restrictions. The views at sunset simply can't be beat. Our server was PHENOMENAL. It was a wicked busy night, but by the speed and attentiveness of this server, you would never know it. We felt truly cared for while we dined here. read more

I wavered between 3 and 4 stars on this one. How you feel about Blue Mountain depends largely on what kind of a skier/snowboarder you are. If you're an absolute beginner, it isn't a bad introduction to the world of snow sports. It's a small "mountain" and therefore very beginner friendly. They have a completely closed off area on one side that is entirely for beginners with conveyor lifts, very gentle and short slopes, and a short chairlift. There are also two green trails on the mountain designated as "slow skiing areas," though they might want to police them better as there were still several daredevils blasting by us. The whole process for rentals and lessons is a well-oiled machine and easy to navigate. My 11-year-old son had never been skiing or snowboarding before and was anxious to try. So this seemed like a logical spot to bring him. I had been here plenty of times as a kid in the 90's, but this was my first time back in decades. We came on a Sunday in March and arrived at 7:30. It was already crowded with cars and people at that point but we still got a good parking spot and picking up rental equipment was no problem. My son enjoyed his snowboarding lesson and was loving how quickly he was learning. I bought a lift pass for me + helmet rental, and a beginner package for him (this included snowboard/helmet rental, one hour lesson, and restricted lift ticket). All together this was $293, which seems wildly overpriced for the mountain we were on, especially considering my son was stuck to the beginner area all day unless we upgraded his lift ticket. But I guess this price is common in the skiing industry these days, and I hate to think what the big mountains out west are charging. If you're an experienced skier/snowboarder and live close by, it's probably not a bad place to get in a quick fix. As an experienced skier myself, it was a pleasant day on the slopes, but got a little boring after awhile. If I'm going to pay an arm and a leg, fight hordes of people all day, and drive for a few hours to get there, I'd rather do so on a bigger and more challenging mountain. read more

We really wanted to get an aerial view of the fall foliage, but it wasn't really much to see as most leaves are still green. However, Blue mountain is absolutely stunning! We enjoyed the views from the chair lift and felt pretty safe. After the lift, we hiked over to the restaurant at Summit Lodge. ** Of note, the website says it's a .6 mile trek, but it is definitely 1 full mile as we were told upon departing the chair lift. We finished our meal and hiked back up the mountain arriving at 5, to discover that the lift was shutting down for the night. The operator said someone should've told us that it stops running at 430. Initially, he said he could take one of us back down in his 2 seater vehicle and the rest of us would have to hike back. But then he decided to radio to base who advised they would have someone drive the 3 of us together. The operator waited with us until our driver arrived. The driver was a very nice police officer who gave us a lot of info about Blue Mountain, and even volunteered to be our photographer. Despite the snafu, we all said we would come back. 8/10 read more

Our family had a blast here! The place is awesome! Great finger food, great helpful staff, nice selection of tubes. We had a really good time tubing with the whole family. We ranged in age from 3-44 and everyone had just the best time. We all were able to go up the ramps & down the slopes with ease. The staff was nice and the place itself is your average ski lodge. We really had a good time and can't wait to go back! read more

Since there's no place to put a review specifically for their pierogie festival I'll put it here since they run it. For the second straight year I've been attending it is an awful experience. Long lines (30+) people waiting to get food or drinks. You are in line for well over 30 minutes at most stands. No one can really judge who has the best pierogie because when you wait in line that long you're not going to get into another to sample the next vendor. You'll use all your tickets at the first one your in line for . Plus this year $20 only got you 3 pierogies when last year it was 6. This festival is not only bad for customer experience but unfair to venders competing for votes. I will not be attending next year and from what I noticed many didn't this year. They were sold out last year and this year there were tickets still available. Blue Mountain do better. Either limit the number of tickets sold or cancel this event totally. But I've had enough with limited seating and long lines read more

If you're looking for a family friendly, easy to get to ski resort from NYC then blue mountain is it!!! My husband and I love this resort. We come pretty frequently and it never gets old. Skiing, snowboarding, & snow tubing are all the activities they have in the winter. They also have lodging, food & a full bar. Service is always great! The instructors are always so nice. Highly recommend for a day trip or even a weekend. 10/10 read more

Blue Mountain Resort was a blast. The employees and staff were all so friendly. My friends and I came here to snow tube this past Saturday from 4 to 6 PM and I really enjoyed my experience here at the ski resort. It was a nice day weather-wise and we enjoyed snow tubing under the sun and then for the last hour from 5 to 6 pm, it became a little chilly, but the vibes were great. The music was phenomenal. They had party music and dance music. Very popular songs were playing that everyone can let loose and have some fun to. We were able to see the sunset and it looked stunning. They had fun party lights that changed colors with the lyrics for the song's. We rented a locker and the locker experience was quick and easy. I felt safe snow tubing and I also felt the staff has done an amazing job keeping up with the maintenance of the tubes, the snow mountains, and the equipment to take the customers up the hill. 10/10 snow tubing resort read more

I love that the parking is free unlike Camelback. There are so many slopes. But when I came, the condition is icy. The directions to different slopes and lifts were limited, when the map couldn't help. It was not beginner's friendly to me because their carpet lift was close. I was confused where the Vista Chair was because before I turned right, it would say Expert. I also wasn't good enough to go down to the easiest slope because it has many sharp turns. I wouldn't recommend this for those who just ski about 5 times in their life. read more

The atmosphere was o.k. but, food was AWFUL.. very short time for anyone coming in to have any appys. 1 tray of appitizers on this big long table. Looked so silly and was taken away when people started coming in. Entree was the following: 1st salad with very little house dressing was like eating greens from the garden. Prime rib with no auju or much juice looked like it had been microwaved, smooshed non ingredient semi mashed potatoe shaped from an ice cream scooper and 1 asparagus raw placed on the plate. Even with the very small amount of juice on the meat is was dry. Perhaps other choices were better but, did not ask other guests. I am not sure if this was just a bad day or a fluke that the meal was by me considered below par with a lot to be desired for those costs. rating this i think i would put a 2 on this. thank goodness it was highlighted by the interaction with the guests and cartoonist read more

I was a little hesitant reading the snow tubing reviews, but I was pleasantly surprised and grateful that I decided to choose this resort. There is a lot of free parking at the entrance of the adventure center. Being valentines weekend and snow expected I fully expected it to be really busy so I prepared myself for that. The check in process was very simple. You scan the bar code and cards are printed out that allows you access to the gates of the snow tubing and conveyor belts that take you to the top of the snow tubing hills. The cards a readable through your pocket as long as you don't have your phone in the same pocket. Making the process simple and well organized. There are 3 tubing hills, hills 1 and 3 are the fastest while the middle is the slowest and best for smaller children. We rotated between hills 1 and 3 the entire 2 hours. Some reviews stated that they only got to go down the hills 1-3 times but we got a good 3 runs even with walking between hills 1 and 3 multiple times. Yes the wait times can be long but it is definitely worth. I ended up having way more fun than I was expecting. The views are breathtaking. I really enjoyed myself even with the snow hitting me in the face at a high rate of speed. read more

My friends and I had a great experience snow tubing here. We did the option for Sunday from 6-8pm. It also included the lights when it got dark out. It got dark at 7pm so we had an hour of the "glow in the dark" tubing experience. I feel it was very affordable and reasonably priced at $42 per person for 2 hours! There was tons of parking available and you can either sign your waiver online or in person the staff helps you quickly to do it. They also have restrooms, food, a gift shop, and an outdoor firepit with a s'mores station as well. This location was awesome. The snow tubing hill was very high it was sooo much fun. They offer single tubes and double tubes for 2 people. Had a great time! read more

I started learning to snowboard 2 weeks short of my 31st birthday in January 2023. I took snowboard lessons multiple times at Big SNOW & showed up weekly. By December 2023, I felt confident enough to snowboard Blue Mountain ALONE. I came here once when I was 10 years old to learn to ski, but my dad didn't teach me anything at all. He pushed me down a Black Diamond & left me to fend for myself. It was thanks to the snowboarders that stopped & helped that I wanted to learn to snowboard. So it was really nice to come back and be able to give thanks, and just feel like things came full circle! PARKING There is an upper lot and a lower lot. Depending on the day, the time you come, you may either get a close parking spot to the entrance or not. Parking is free unlike Camelback. If you park in the upper lot, you have to take that into account when you're done with your day. Which is something I didn't plan for at the time. I haven't been back in many years, so by the time I was "done" I still had to finish the remainder of the slope. Take the chair lift up, then ride down the mountain partially, just to get back to the upper lot. Then I could be done. I was exhausted! As a skier, you may not have an issue, but snowboarding drains more energy. So definitely plan it in advance. Lower lot would probably be better, but upper lot has the best restaurants in the lodge I believe. TICKETS & PASSES You can buy them in person, but there's always a line. I bought mine online because it is cheaper, and it is easy to claim your pass at this kiosk outside if you do purchase it online. FACTS - Blue Mountain is known for having one of the largest snowmaking systems on the East Coast. The resort invests in the latest snowmaking technology each season. I read it online on their website. And it is a fact! - Not just for winter riding, they also have summer activities too! - Blue Mountain does not close at 4pm. They have night riding! - My man, who works in the ski & snowboard industry, says they also have the best webcams for all their slopes and has never seen any mountain with cameras such as theirs. - Their snow lasted the longest. There were places in NJ & NY already closed with no snow in early March 2024. They were going for awhile! RIDE LIFE Everyone I met was just so amazing. My man is from out of state, and him and his friends all loved Blue Mountain as well (during a separate trip)! It made me proud to be from PA. Unfortunately, there's always going to be some bad eggs. I saw a fight break out between two guys over something small. I had a random dude throw an ice snowball into my ear, and when I barked back everything fell silent. If you want to hit on girls, maybe don't actually hit them with things? Just a thought. REFRESHMENTS & BATHROOMS Expensive. Not bad but not great. They have a lot of beers on tap. My nachos came out pretty quick, so I believe they're just reheating frozen food. The main bathrooms remind me of public school bathrooms. They're run down. The upper lot lodge on the second floor, those bathrooms were nice! They definitely have a lot of variety of refreshments but expensive! QUICK TIPS - Be aware of your surroundings. - Be kind, everyone wants to have a good time. - Things are going to be busy at the opening & end of the season. - Lock up your board, gear, skis. Too many people leave it without locks but that's a sure fire way of getting your gear stolen. Why are you leaving things up to chance in this day and age? OVERALL I had an epic solo adventure snowboarding alone on this mountain! I definitely will continue to frequent the mountain with my boyfriend & newfound friends in the future. read more

Skied here for 2 consecutive days with my wife and 4 kids. We had a good time overall. I will likely come again. There was not significant natural snowfall, so the entire mountain's snow surface was made by man. It was dry, but you could feel the weight of the "snow" on the turns. Not too many ice patches overall. There were some places where the snowboarders ground off all the snow and there was only the ice base left. The spots were avoidable if anyone knows how to turn and keep speed in check. Since temperatures dropped on the second day, the blowers were on in the evening. It was not too much to go through. Sometimes the lift lines were long, but I would choose one that was running more quickly. Thankfully there are three big ones at the Valley Lodge. There's always something to ride on the mountain. I didn't see any ski patrol on the mountain at all except for the end of the 2nd day. Thankfully the snow boarders weren't behaving like donkeys on our trip. I saw somebody get hurt on Burma Road. There was no one to alert in the emergency building at the bottom of the trail. It was unlocked but there was no one inside. There was no way to call for any help if your cell phone goes down like mine was. read more

I get my ticket for tubbing with the family and ready to enjoy the day and the first slide down I hit a huge block of ice and *#% my lower back. I get it and it's not the facility fault ( it's why you sign a waiver ) but what pissed me off is that they offer the Cushing after the fact. If you know already then they should have just included it and I would have enjoyed myself with my family instead of nursing myself. It's a shame because the kids that work this facility even on the cold were friendly and cheerful. Nice fireplace for those after the fact to enjoy some smores. read more

The atmosphere is definitely chill. People of every age group and nationality bustling in and out of restaurant, ticket booths to ski and snow board, or just hanging out. We were set to go snow tubing but were hit with an ice, sleet strom that transformed the whole resort to a giant ice rink. As a family we decided to leave earlier than expected due to the growing storm intensity throughout the night. It was a nightmare driving from resort to Allentown. Can't wait to return and take advantage of the amenities and have a proper experience read more

My son and I visited the bike park during early summer. It was a total blast! We rented full suspension bikes which come with protective gear so literally you just need to show up. Luckily, we had ridden before so we skipped the mountain bike lessons. The day we went, there was only one lift running (likely typical - Comet lift). It was relatively slow crowds so no lines for the lift. The staff was super friendly every where we went. We had a lot of fun on the blue and green trails. Ripple and boulevard were our favorites. The terrain is quite rocky so be prepared. Lunch choices were limited. We ate tacos and a bowl at the Mexican food truck which were pretty good. The bike shop inside was jam packed with nice Fox and Troy Lee Designs products at reasonable prices, typical markup for a resort. We had so much fun we spent the entire day on the mountain (10a-6p) and left feeling like spaghetti from the rocky terrain but completely happy. If you want to give downhill mountain biking a go, try this bike park out. It's well maintained. read more

The adventureous self had emerged within me visiting this park. My boyfriend and I choose the two hour adventure package: included adventure cube, zipline, rock wall, high ropes course, trampoline, free fall. The transfering of our line tickets, to a relodable ticket was a bit un organized. The girl I spoke with said just go right too the course, which was in correct, as you needed to go to the gift shop, ensure waivers were signed and scan online tickets. Besides that communication mistake, the overall adventure park; to sum it up strengthed my endurance, agility, and stamina, well worth it. The employees, prior to entering park, have you instruction on your safety helmet, proper technique for your harness, rules of course. The Summit Adventure park, is nestled on top of Pocono mountains, perfect for children, teens and adventurous adults. Special thank you to the staff, at the Adventure cube, for your kindness and encouragement this past Saturday August 19. read more

This was one of the worst experiences I've ever had at a resort. Blue Mountain snow tubing is disorganized, poorly managed, and unprofessional. After waiting over 2 HOURS, the line broke down. When we finally reached the scanner, we were told there was a "system glitch" and forced to walk about 2 miles back to the sales office to sign a waiver, then wait another 30 minutes. This was entirely their error. At the scanning area, the young male staff member was extremely rude and disrespectful and bluntly told us to leave. When we asked to speak to a manager, the situation escalated into a "gang mentality," where staff immediately defended each other instead of trying to resolve the issue professionally, and they led us into a very uncomfortable situation and caused emotional stress. Manager Jason Deck promised we would be allowed back to the front of the line. That promise was not honored. When we returned, we had lost our spot and were sent back to the end of the line. When we asked for a refund, Jason told us to leave, saying they couldn't handle the line. Security (Caron Heck) was rude, dismissive, and intimidating. Many guests were visibly upset due to the complete lack of organization. What made this experience even worse was how we were treated compared to others. We were spoken to harshly, dismissed, and pushed out while other guests were accommodated. It felt discriminatory, and we left believing our treatment was influenced by our ethnicity. No customer should ever feel singled out or disrespected this way. Despite all of this, customer service told us NO REFUND, even though we never got to participate due to their system failure. No accountability. No professionalism. No respect. I will be escalating this to Consumer Affairs. Do not recommend. Save your money and go elsewhere. read more

I really liked this place . Loved the snow tubbing . And the workers were very nice . My only qualms was the bathroom and how the food court was kept . People should be cleaning constantly .

Great spot for basic tubing. They were trying the best. depending on the worker/staff, it is hit or miss with customer service. Tubing signages were inadequate- many drove to the ski slopes only to find a huge sign to turn back around. Perhaps the huge sign should be more prominent on the main roadways. Meanwhile, their POS was down for some time. Not their fault but wanted to mention it can happen. (cash is still handy in this society sometimes, ha!) The slopes and facilities were fine BUT it was so many people that everyone was trying to make their 2 hours of tubing time worth it. The # of people in attendance was not helping. They should calibrate the 2 hours time based on the # of attendees to make sure that sufficient tubing time adjusts to those situations. It just did not allot for the # of times you get on the slope due to wait times/lines at the top. This is something owner/management should consider. Thanks foe reviewing. read more

Blue is awesome! We loved the trails. A little loose in some areas. Yes, it's rocky, but so much fun. The runs were not short, they made good use of that mountain. There's a trail for all levels and all ages. We saw a toddler (4-5) ripping the green trails on his Commencal bike. Rode all the blues and a few blacks. Blacks are gnarly! Geesh! Had a good variety of jumps and wooden features that make you question life. There's progression drops at the bottom just before Rollercoaster. Lift wasn't the fastest but not the slowest either. We went during the week and there was no wait. I can only imagine what the weekends are like. Lift sequence is 1 rack for 4 bikes then 3 chairs, so it would take a little while when it's busy. Didn't see any bar or restaurant, only breakfast sandwiches available at the bike shop, AND the only MTB merch they had was a few t-shirts on one rack. More MTB merch please corporate. Bikes and gear available to rent. Staff was friendly and very knowledgeable about the trails. Shout out to Doc who took us down Wild Turkey, a blue tech trail. Really appreciated it! Don't pass this MTB park up if you're in the area. It's worth the ride! So happy hubby and I went. read more

Went snow tubing here and had an awesome time. There were 3 very high slopes to slide down and the time slot that you choose is managed by a barcode card that you must keep at all times. This weekend was very crowded so I only got to go down 3 of the slides once time each for a two hour slot period as well as eat some chicken tenders (~$15). I can say the bathrooms were very clean and the property was clean with a huge long fireplace and ample seating. I recommend doing the night snow tubing because it is well lit at night with pretty cool colors. read more

Blue has hard working staff doing their best to make it enjoyable and fun for everybody. I would imagine it is tough these days due to pandemic plus the general worker shortage but especially so due to vagaries of the weather. Heard that Camelback and Blue Mtn. are merging operations - so would have to wait and see if Blue Mtn. will continue to stay ahead in customer experience. New high-speed lift is being installed but not yet open. An area of improvement -- for season 2023 pass holders it has become a rough deal because of the slope conditions in month of Dec -- especially for beginners who found not many leaner slopes open (Vista Village East and West remained closed for longer than anticipated). I wish you had jump on the season. Perhaps some welcome back discount during renewal? read more

So im an ikon pass holder so visiting new mountains was a buddy of mines goal this year, also an ikon pass holder. First new mountain was this little hidden gem. Upon looking into heard a lot of mixed reviews but we were booked, it just snowed a decent amount and it was time to go!!! This mountain does a great job at grooming and creating parks with awesome features! Opens at 8am and closes at 9pm in weekends, i mean come on get ya night riding in!!!! So dopeeeee!!!!! The mountain large but not your highest but youll get your miles in dont worry. The lift lines i were told can get wild, we arrived at 8am on the dot and were pleasantly surprised on a saturday it was sorta quiet til about 1030, lines did get long but they do a good iob at moving them along. Multiple spots to grab some food, multiple outdoor bars and indoor alike. And overall the workers have a really great demeanor about them. I think if you got the opportunity to get here, DO IT! Anddddd if you can get it in during the week youre really going to love this east coast gem. read more

Blue Mountain is a great resort if you're looking for a short winter getaway! I was surprised at how big the grounds were. They have so many options for winter activities that include snowboarding, skiing, snow tubing, and much more! Once you arrive, each guest receives a Blue Mountain card which is used to access rental equipment and certain points throughout the resort. There are lockers for a small fee to store items and also a gift shop. I recommend bringing your own snow pants, gloves, goggles, etc because the prices are pretty high at the gift shop. They also provide snow boarding lessons with an instructor, which is nice because the groups are typically small. I was a little surprised at how crowded the resort was given the state of the pandemic, but most people wore masks. The lines also look very long, but they move quickly! There are plenty of food truck/stand options for lunch at the resort. I recommend this more than dining at their indoor cafeteria since the food is generally over priced. Finally, the staff here were really great! Everyone was helpful and kind and made our experience much more pleasant! read more

Came here for a skiing day to celebrate my birthday. You must buy tickets online ahead of time. I thought it was a bit overpriced. $94 for skii lift plus rental for 4 hours but decided to give it a shot anyway. I ended up only using the beginners mountain since the more advanced trails looked absolutely terrifying. Some of the staff were a bit unfriendly since I was obviously a beginner and they weren't too helpful. The beginners mountain closed earlier than the other trails which was kind of annoying. I did enjoy however my experience at the bar and their snack bar. The bartender was super friendly and welcoming. We ordered tater tots, salted pretzel and a corn dog which were actually super tasty. I wouldn't recommend this place for a beginner, their trails are more advanced. read more

Biggest rip off for snow tubing. You pick a 2 hour timeslot which I am ok with but you would think you wouldn't have to wait in line to go down the mountain. Each wait is like 30 minutes so technically you can only go down the mountain 4 times and I paid 56 dollars per person. That is such a scam. If you are going to make people pick a 2 hour time slot at least limit the amount of ppl that gets to register for those 2 hours. I would be ok if in those 2 hours I can at least slide down the mountain more than 4 times. read more

DO NOT GO TO BLUE MOUNTAIN. I will never go back after the horrifying experience I had this year. Not only were prices out of this world but Blue Mountain does not put on a cap on how many tickets they sell! They oversell their capacity and you're lucky to get in 2 runs down the mountain in an entire day!! It started with parking being a nightmare (because they oversell) and then waiting in line for over an hour to retrieve rental equipment. They are the only mountain that charges you a separate $15 each for a helmet, when this should be standard safety equipment that is included in a rental. The geniuses they have working at the desk gave me the wrong skis initially, which further delayed my time skiing. Then the line to get on the lifts was atrocious - it seriously took about an hour to get on the lift. Blue Mountain's greed is repulsive - they will sell tickets past their capacity and then you'll arrive to find that you won't have any reasonable amount of time on the mountain, you'll pay exorbitant prices for food, you will be circling the parking lot for a half hour, and you won't even be able to walk anywhere with the times-square level crowds!! You scam artists should refund every single person you sold tickets to past your capacity. It was not only a horrific experience but insanely unsafe. Never going there again. read more

this is a glamping review. the sites were nice, tucked into the woods. they give you a platform tent with reasonably comfortable bed. the bed was wobbly and the tent had mildew. when someone moved on the bed, everyone else felt it. glamping, at the least, should have a real bathroom, running water, and electricity. they gave us a plastic jug of water, a porta potty, and we had to pay for a car battery to run some electric. showers and real bathroom were a fifteen minute walk away. and they nickel and dime you on parking. read more

Total waste of money. Spent 6 hours there this weekend and got to experience all of 15 minutes of Ice skating on the worlds worst ice surface and one 20 second tube ride. All at for the low price of $200 for the two of us ($135 for the tickets, $20 for parking and $27 for skate rentals). First we spent 30 minutes looking for parking, which is why we finally paid $20 for parking just so we could actually do something. Had to walk across to the kiosks to get our ticket. Oh well, its right by the coaster, so no big deal. But wait, the coaster was closed due to snow (Great design! It snows here alot!). Decide to check out the pool next. But wait, the pool was closed! So 2 of the 4 things I wanted to do were out. Went to the tubing, was told it was a 3 hour wait. ugh. Asked about the ice skating, told there was no line there! yaay! What should be a 10 minute ride took an hour to drive to the skating rink and an hour back because they closed the roads. I know, weather conditions are not Blue Mountains fault, but they decided to put the thing there, they need to accept responsibility for it. And the ice was horrible. Almost un-skateable. Could only tolerate it for 15 minutes before we left. When we got back down, we asked about the coaster. The employee suggested we download the Blue Mountain app, which we did. It said the coaster was open. Yaaay! After another 20 minute walk to get there, it was actually still closed. "Oops sorry. Our app was wrong." Ugh. Walked back to tubing. Was a 1.5 hour wait, which we couldn't understand why. The pictures online show 7 runs and they go down in groups every minute or so. Shouldn't be more than an hour. When we got closer we saw why. Only 4 runs now, and also, apparently the way it works is once you get to the front of the line and get to go down the slide, you get to go right back up to the top! No more lines for you! That was never explained at any point, and no other ride works like that so I don't get why this one does! So by 7 PM we finally got our tube ride. 6 hours, and $200 later, we had had enough. Bottom line, don't waste your time. read more
