Your stay at Heather Mountain Lodge begins the evening before your first ski day. We’ll be ready to check you in at 6 PM.

Time to Get Ready for Your Best Day Ever

Arrival & Check-In

If you arrive early, great! Welcome! Enjoy a drink in our lounge and take in our epic views while we finish preparing your room. After you settle in, you’re invited to join us in the lodge for 7:00 PM introductions and a gourmet three-course dinner. After dinner, our guides will escort you to the Ski Room for equipment set-up and some other administration, so please bring your boots. Once you’re all set for skiing, the rest of the evening is yours to enjoy. May we suggest a nightcap at the Woolly Toque—our charming backcountry bar?
