Snowshoe Mountain Cuts Costs of Winter Vacation
- By AlpineZone News
But Snowshoe Mountain Resort, located in West Virginia, provides the perfect solution. Snowshoe's central location is just a short drive from the anywhere in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic, and upon arrival there will be no question why the resort has been named the #1 Ski Area in the Southeast (by the readers of Ski Magazine). Owned by famed resort developers Intrawest, Snowshoe offers snow enthusiasts a big mountain experience, including 60 slopes over 244 acres and 1,500 vertical feet, four terrain park areas for those looking to hit rails and jumps, a 5-lane tubing hill, and plenty of extras like guided snowmobile tours and indoor and outdoor pools and hot tubs. The resort is situated almost a mile high in the Alleghany Mountains, with a peak elevation of 4848', reminiscent of many New England resorts. Modeled after European ski towns, Snowshoe's Village area is located at the mountaintop and offers guests a cobblestoned plaza surrounded by retail stores and restaurants. Many of Snowshoe's 1,400 lodging units are also located in the central Village area, putting them just steps from the slopes. Like a small town in the middle of the West Virginia wilderness, the resort melds amazing views and an 11,000-acre natural playground with all the luxuries you want
