The Town of the Blue Mountains made the list of this summer's top trending domestic destinations in Canada with its four-season playground.
Airbnb released its 2025 Canadian summer travel trends report this month, listing the ski resort town among the most desirable places in the nation to visit, noting its trails, spas and panoramic views of Georgian Bay.
With more people looking to stay this side of the border, the local tourism industry is reporting one of its best seasons in recent years, with an influx of visitors.
The lower Canadian dollar, combined with a growing preference for staycations amid U.S. tariffs, more travelers are encouraged to explore what Ontario has to offer.

Blue Mountain Resort offers Pass Holder Appreciation Weekend Friday to Sunday with fun activities and attractions. "When you're a pass holder at Blue, the perks don't end when the snow melts," the resort posted to social media about the weekend event.
The town boasts a host of recreational activities, from skiing, hiking, cross-country and downhill biking, golf, various events, and for those looking for something less physical, there are boutiques, spas, restaurants and chalets.
Algonquin Park also made Airbnb's list, which highlighted the park's iconic wilderness, canoeing, camping and stargazing.
