Courmayeur should usually be pretty good in mid-March, though they've struggled a little for snow so far this season. You'd be unlucky not to have good cover then though.
The town itself is lovely; very charming with a traditional (though well-heeled!) air about it. Not the cheapest of Italian resort towns but a good variety of bars and restaurants with a nice vibe to it. Shouldn't be too busy mid-March, except for the weekends when quite a crowd can come up from Turin.
Something you will notice is that the locals tend to take looooonng lunches (the eateries on the mountain are excellent)
so it's well worthwhile grabbing a snack around 11:30 and then grabbing a couple of hours on empty pistes!
Not a huge ski area but a good variety of runs. Keep a piste map handy though as the signage isn't what it could be! 8)
