Ikon Options for 2020/2021

[Jilly]

I think I'll buy the base pass again. I need it for Tremblant. But I may decide to defer it and go Tonik if it doesn't look good.

I bought the base Ikon. I'd like to go back to Taos for ski week and then a trip to MT and one to UT - I'm hopeful!

I was thinking about Taos today....

I'm going to book that studio you had.

For Snakedance condo at Taos (TSV) - rate will be $120 per night for studio apt (only 3 units total) up to 2/12/2021. Studio can fit up to 2.
Rate increases afterward - quite significant per my recollection.
2021 President's day weekend will be 2/13 - hence the rate increase.

Saw that too. Would not recommend for 2 (maybe a couple?).....

Not sure? I did not get to check out their studio unit this year because all were occupied.
I was told, they can fit 2 separate twin beds.
If I go before Feb.12th next season, I will stay at Snakedance. After Feb 12th, I plan to stay in town.

The Snakedance studio has a king bed, doesn't it? So fine for a couple or any two people willing to share a bed for a few nights. Often a king can be split into two twin beds.

What I noticed when we stopped in one night was the full kitchen.

I stayed there last year and there was a king bed. The unit was a decent size but my stuff took up the entire unit. There are no couches for sitting , only a bed but my unit had a nice kitchen with bar stools to sit.

that I never took advantage of........

The studio unit I was in had a King bed that I requested ahead of time to split into two twins. I slept in one and used the other as my luggage rack. I really didn’t unpack much and just lived out of my suitcase and duffel bag. There were no dresser drawers. Instead, there were shelves and hangars in the bathroom. There was a love seat and a small coffee table. Small dining table with chairs. The kitchen had a 2-burner hot plate which I used once to make hard-boiled eggs. Had a lot of soups, sandwiches, hard-boiled eggs, and salads. Like @santacruz skier, my stuff took up the entire unit. It would be fine for a couple, or 2 people who pack light and don’t care about privacy. There is no privacy at all. Ski lockers on the way in and out so you don’t have to lug your gear to your room. Though I saw quite a few guests doing just that. Small hot tub in the same building but strangely, nobody was ever there when I went. For myself, I’d absolutely stay there again. You can’t beat the 2-minute walk to Lift 1.

For me, the low price and being right at the mountain is worth the tiny space.

Totally agree..... I really think it's perfect for one person......though I like my own space when I travel.

The Sierra del Sol condos are also excellent. They are just across the Hondo River and literally a 3 minute walk to the lifts or the village. We stayed in a studio (DH and I) and it had plenty of room. We were quite comfortable. I would like to go again this year, but I'm just not sold on the idea of travel yet.

Also think @snow cat and sister stayed at Powderhorn (?) near Le Mastery Ski shop and very close to the slopes....

 

[mustski]

I heard mixed reviews of Powderhorn. Be careful of which unit.

 

[nopoleskier]

I went with 7 Day IKON- This year I still skied 19 IKON Days and lost about 25 due to the virus. I'm thinking positive we'll be skiing and I plan on making up my lost days.

I booked a week in January at Snakedance. Call me crazy?

People who ski LCC enough to consider an Alta/Snowbird combo pass will get a major perk. For the first time, an Alta/Snowbird season pass will include Ikon Base. That doesn't include access to JH and Aspen. Perhaps this perk is one reason that Ikon Base requires an extra $150 to add JH and Aspen.
