We're a family-run establishment like those which have served travelers throughout Europe since the beginning of the century. The Snowmansion is a clean, comfortable facility with a casual friendly atmosphere. We've been hosting summer and winter groups for over 30 years...Our lodge is designed with groups in mind. A large portion of our 7,000+ sq. ft. is devoted to common areas for the exclusive use of our guests. Our six large dorm rooms open into the main common area which hosts a piano, pool table, and fireplace. Each of the dorm rooms has its own bathroom and shower room, so there is no need to go outside your room to use the facilities. Our dining room just off the main area, can also be used as a meeting room. Group leaders love the Snowmansion layout because of its safe environment and ease in chaperoning their groups. We offer special group discount rates for 10 or more guests. For your group we are the ideal and affordable choice. Clean comfortable & inexpensive... and don't forget convenient too.
