Practical tips for families
Plan ahead for meals and spa or activity bookings: several dining outlets (1902 Main Dining Room, Stickney's, Fabyan's Station) require reservations for dinner and the spa recommends booking treatments in advance.
Confirm policies that often vary by source — for example pet policy and parking fees — directly with the resort before arrival to avoid surprises.
- Book dinner reservations in advance for 1902, Stickney's and select outlets (phone numbers and hours are on the resort site).
- Reserve spa treatments and popular activities (golf tee times, canopy tour) early — weekends fill up.
- Check resort fee inclusions (in-room Wi‑Fi, shuttle, pool/fitness access, bottled water, ski storage) so you know what is covered.
