  • The resort fee provides our guests with:
  • Internet access
  • The Nest and the Little Nest
  • Après ski cookies and hot Chocolate
  • Outdoor pool and hot tub

Rates are based on room-type (double occupancy, quadruple occupancy, etc.). Rooms and suites are subject to maximum occupancy policies.

Valet Parking fees are $25/night during the summer season and $55/night in the winter. Room rates do not include parking. We highly recommend you take transportation to and from the hotel as street parking demand is high in the winter.

At Snowpine Lodge, sustainability is at the heart of our operations, reflecting our deep commitment to preserving the natural beauty of the mountains we call home. We actively engage in cardboard recycling, reducing waste and promoting eco-friendly practices. One of our proudest initiatives is the installation of water bottle refilling stations, which have helped eliminate over 10,500 single-use plastic bottles (as of March 2025). We also encourage guests to reduce linen and towel changes during their stayover services, helping to conserve water and minimize waste. These efforts not only reduce our environmental footprint but also foster sustainable habits among our visitors. We care deeply about the environment because we live in these mountains and want to protect them for future generations. Snowpine Lodge is dedicated to being a responsible steward of the land, ensuring the pristine beauty of our surroundings endures for years to come.

If you have any suggestions or questions about our sustainability practices, please feel free to reach out to us at [email protected] or call the front desk at 801-742-2000.
