Please carefully read all Lesson Policies before booking a reservation to understand your responsibilities. 

Online Lesson Reservations

All lesson programs must be purchased & reserved in advance for all weekdays, weekends, holidays, and peak periods.

Lesson Check-In

All classes, including groups and private lessons, will meet at our Sugar Hills Learning area for check-in. Arrive at Snowriver Mountain at least 60-90 minutes before your class start-time to ensure enough timing with tickets and rentals. All students should be suited up and ready for their lesson 15 minutes prior to start time and at our check-in location with gear and lift ticket. We will not accept any students in a lesson once it has begun.

Lesson Cancellation Policy

All lessons canceled within five days of the lesson date will be assessed a $20 cancellation fee and refunded. All lessons canceled within two days of the lesson date will be non-refundable, with no exceptions. If the guest wishes to reschedule, they must do so two days prior to their arrival. Lessons can only be rescheduled ONE time and will incur a $20 rescheduling fee. Once a lesson has been rescheduled, it becomes non-refundable if the guest wishes to cancel.

For Parents + Guardians

A Late Pickup Fee of $25 per child under 11 will be assessed if the parent or guardian on record is not present to pick up their child at the end of the lesson.

Snowriver Mountain reserves the right to refuse a child due to age, communication barriers, tardiness, behavior, availability, or readiness for the program. If a child does not wish to participate in a lesson, we will not force participation. Parents need to be available for pick-up in the case that any of these reasons should be cause to end a lesson early.
