Important Winter Access Information
For stays from November 1 through April 15, please review the following before booking:
*Guests must arrive in a vehicle equipped with approved winter tires marked with the three-peak mountain snowflake symbol (3PMSF), or carry approved traction devices, as required by applicable canyon traction rules.
*Winter check-in is from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Arriving within this window allows our team to guide you to the home and reduces the likelihood of encountering unplowed neighborhood roads during active snowfall.
*Do not use Uber or Lyft to travel to this property. Ride share vehicles may not meet winter traction requirements and may be unable to reach the home or return for pickup.
*The home can accommodate a maximum of three vehicles in winter.
Winter Guided Arrival
A Cottonwood Lodging team member will meet you along the main road and guide you to the property for all winter arrivals.
This process helps prevent guests from becoming lost or stuck on neighborhood roads and supports our positive relationship with nearby residents. Please do not attempt to reach the home without assistance, even if you have stayed at the property before.
Please communicate your expected arrival time with Cottonwood Lodging in advance so a team member can meet you between 4:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.
