blandford ski area

Came here with my husband & sons, and it was just the right size for us. We're beginner/intermediate skiers (my kids still like to try the black diamonds, though). We visited on President's Week in the legendary winter of 2015, and there were no lines to speak of. Everyone made us feel welcome. Nice fireplace in the warming building, and lots of shelves to put your boots/backpacks/etc. The lifts were old school, and just fine for our needs! Nice scenic runs (we were lucky to have packed powder), friendly staff. Good prices in the cafeteria, too. We hope to come again.

Reasonable prices, short lines, well groomed trails. Great ski school. The only thing that has gone downhill has been the turnover in the pro shop and kitchen. Neither compare to who ran these areas a year ago.

PRO: Reasonable season passes $239 for2013-14 season pass Good snow making Good grooming Member owned Great ski school and area for learning to ski Small or NO lift lines Area good for families and skiers of all ages and abilitiesCON: $47 daily fee Needs more members(SUGGESTION give 2 or 4 free passes to all adult members to pass out to to other skiers to introduce them to the area!) More members will mean more money to help maintain and update the equipment!

Visted winter of 2010 and just thought the equipment was outdated. they were still using a rope tow on the beginner hill. They people were very friendly, though.

We have brought our family to Blandford for the last 18 years. All three of my children learned to ski and snowboard there. They have a beginner trail with dozens of ski instructors and they also have a pretty good terrain park. It is an "easy" mountain but we looked at it as a gian t playground. My kids were outside from 10am to 4pm and sometimes we would stick around for night skiing after a full day. All of their friends were there because we spread the word. They are all expert skiiers now but this was "the place" to spend the whole day outside with thier friends doing what they loved best, skiing!! There are plenty of great skiiers that come from this mountain.

It's small and a little rustic but the passion for snowsports is totally evident. Great place for family skiing/riding!

The hospitality and down home feeling will have you coming back again and again. The entire staff is so friendly and helpful! A very family-oriented operation. Another nice feature is that there are lighted slopes for your night-time skiing pleasure!

I wouldn't have tried to ski on a Holiday Week Sunday with the prices and the crowds, but getting an email from Groupon had me on the slopes with my Daughter for $17.50 for all day Sunday 2/19/12. The snow was perfect, they have done an absolutely tremendous job with the mountain. There were a lot of people skiing, but no lines and lots of trails kept everyone spread out.The food at the lodge was delicious and a bargain. We brought food yet opted to eat theirs because it was sooo inexpensive. Drinks for $1 for a 16 or 20 oz bottle. The french fries were to die for, and the burger and chicken sandwiches were tasty.Everyone seemed to know everyone else, the workers, lift attendants, ski patrol.I hope Mother Nature gives them a bonus snowstorm, but they should be commended for the conditions they've created.

It is a nice family Ski area.. Great place for kids to learn how to ski. Mix of hills..

Small mountain. geared toward families. Buy a season pass earlier rather than later... the earlier you buy the cheaper the price
