Reserve a lift ticket and a place to stay in Tahoe for only $4 more than the price of a single lift ticket. With the Alpine Meadows Beds & Boards package, skiing and boarding are more affordable than ever.

Visit Alpine for as low as $59 with a standard Beds & Boards package, which is valid seven days a week through December 23, 2001 and after April 1, 2002; starting December 24, 2001 through March 31, 2002, this package offers lodging Sunday through Thursday and lift tickets Monday through Friday.

Starting at $79, the Alpine Meadows Lift & Lodging Package is valid for Friday and Saturday night lodging with Saturday and Sunday lift tickets.

Both packages include lift tickets and lodging; however, guests can choose whether to redeem their lift voucher as a regular lift ticket or as a beginner package, which includes a full equipment package, beginner lift ticket and a one-hour and forty-five minute instructional session.

Prices are quoted per person, per night, double occupancy, based on room availability. Tax and service are not included.
