It was a wonderful experience. This is a great place to bring your family. Skiing, snow mobiling etc. Lots of fun for the whole family. I strongly recommend it.

We were pleasantly surprised by their Spring pricing, only $17 lift tickets! I am a new skier. Horseshoe has a great bunny hill and a couple other runs available that are also great for beginner.

We have skied at Horseshoe many times. I actually like it better than Blue Mountain because I find it easy to access both the downhill and cross-country ski sections. The downhill is not as big as Blue Mountain but they still have many runs of varying difficulties. They have a great bunny hill for the kids. They have approximately 40... More
