What town is Blue Mountain in? Is it in Collingwood?
Blue Mountain Resort is in the Town of The Blue Mountains, in Grey County, Ontario, on the south shore of Georgian Bay. It is not in Collingwood, although Collingwood is the next town over, about 10 km and 15 minutes to the east, and people often use the two names for the same area. It is not in Muskoka either, which is a separate region.

Why people say Collingwood
Collingwood is the town most visitors drive through to get here, and it is where the grocery stores and the highway are, so “Collingwood” and “Blue Mountain” get used for the same trip. If you are searching for a place to stay, a rental described as being in Collingwood can be a 15 minute drive from the lifts, while one in The Blue Mountains can be a walk. Ask how far it is on foot. Ours are listed with distances on this page.
