    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!

    Not recommended for eat, service disappointed, no ambiance, eat at home or bring some real good food.

    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

    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

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Ask the Community - Blue Mountain Resort

    How is the prices?

    Lift tickets are $55 Monday through Friday and $65 Saturday and Sunday. Full equipment rental is $40.

    Lessons are all booked tomorrow. I wanted to take my kids ages 8 and 11. Does anyone know of a private instructor who teaches at Blue Mountain?

    If I were you, I would go to their Facebook page and ask there and hopefully someone will see your post that's an instructor or someone from Blue Mountain can guide you to a private instructor.

    How steep is it getting off the lifts for a snowboarder?

    there is an unloading dock to exit the lift-it's not more than a foot drop off the lift.

    Great terrain and conditions for cruising and a couple slopes with enough of a challenge to keep us interested in coming back.

    Here's the reality: if you're visiting any area in close proximity to New York City, this is…read morelargely what you should expect, and it has been our experience in both Connecticut and New Jersey as well. There is trash everywhere. Truly everywhere. Many people don't bother using the trash bins and instead leave their garbage behind for someone else to deal with. Public spaces and facilities aren't treated with much care; we saw gum, trash, and random items tossed into the gas fire pits, and people taking selfies often seemed to take priority over respecting others' personal space. We were fortunate to have rented a condo outside the resort, but the behavior we encountered at the resort itself was very similar, plus a few additional moments we could have done without, including someone blowing their nose into their bare hand and whipping it onto the floor. My family and I are doing the 50‑state challenge, and we chose Camelback Mountain as our Pennsylvania destination. Had we realized how close it was to NYC, we likely would have picked somewhere else. The mountain is beautiful, and the resort has a lot of potential, but they were out of almost everything across the property. On‑site restaurants had limited availability, and the posted hours weren't accurate. There's also very little to do outside the resort at this time of year. I'd recommend skipping the "largest general store in the country", the condition of their petting zoo alone will have you wanting to start an animal rescue.

    This is a great place for beginners! LOTS of green beginner slopes to try out. However, it's a…read morepopular spot and tends to be VERY crowded... That said, I recommend you get here as early as possible if you plan to rent equipment!! It's also very helpful to reserve your gear and lift tickets ahead of time. That will make the gear check out process a bit easier/faster. We arrived around 1pm, and stood in a ridiculously long line to get our gear... All in all, we spent a little over an hour and a half just waiting for our gear. We were pretty annoyed by this, so if you're looking to spend more time on the slopes, get here EARLY!!! Parking is free, but also very difficult to find the later you get here... So keep that in mind as well. They have lockers all over the premises to lock up your things. You'll have to pay to rent them and I believe the only option is to pay for the whole day. Regarding crowdedness... There were really long wait times at the ski lifts, which was very annoying and often frustrating. I get that they have upgraded systems that scan our lift tickets each time we ride, however it created a lot of chaos regarding the lines. I was not a fan. Also, the number of people who were just SITTING in the middle of the slopes, blocking the way was incredibly annoying and also dangerous. There were a LOT of people doing this... I get that it can be scary going down the slopes, especially if it's your first time, however MOVE TO THE SIDE if you're not planning on going anywhere. To end on a brighter note, we were surprised to discover that they offer night skiing here! So arriving later in the day didn't affect us too much as we continued skiing until after 7pm. As beginners, we only needed about 3-4 hours of ski time so it worked out great for us! Not sure if we would come back here or not, but we're definitely glad we tried it out at least once!
