Ballhooter Rally Point by LUXSTAYUSA
Two adjoining Mountain Lodge condos on the third floor give a group of 12 three bedrooms, three full baths and two living rooms. Five queen beds and two sleeper sofas, a kitchen island with bar seating plus a second kitchen, and a dining table set by the windows. Two balconies look out to the mountains, with two free parking spaces. Ski-in/ski-out, a short walk from the Ballhooter lift and Snowshoe Village.
This is the setup for two families or a full ski club: enough beds that nobody draws the short straw, two living rooms so the early risers and the late-night card players don't collide, and two kitchens for a proper group dinner. Everyone walks to the lift together in the morning.
HOW THE TWO CONDOS WORK
The stay is two condos side by side on the third floor of Mountain Lodge, rented together and served by an elevator. Between them you have three bedrooms, three full baths, two living rooms, two kitchens and two balconies.

- Second bedroom: two queen beds and closet storage.
- Third bedroom: one queen bed, a quieter room for a couple.
- Living rooms: two, with a sleeper sofa, an armchair, seating and a smart TV, plus Wi-Fi throughout.
- Main kitchen: an island with bar seating, refrigerator, stove and oven, microwave, dishwasher, toaster, drip coffee maker and kettle, with cookware, dishes, utensils and wine glasses.
- Second kitchen: a second place to cook, so breakfast and coffee don't wait in one line.
- Dining: a table set by the windows for group meals.
- Bathrooms: three full baths with tub and shower combinations.
- Balconies: two, with mountain views.
- Extras: ceiling fans, portable fans, a desk and desk chair.

GOOD TO KNOW

- Twelve is the maximum, even though the beds could hold more.
- The sleeper sofas suit kids or a short stay.
- Washers and dryers are coin-operated in the building, not in the condos.
- Only two parking spaces are included for the whole group.
THE VILLAGE AND THE MOUNTAIN
Snowshoe Village is a short walk from Mountain Lodge: The Junction, Foxfire Grille and Waffle Cabin, plus ski and snowboard rentals, the ski school, shops and a convenience store. The free resort shuttle loops between the buildings, the Village and the base areas, so the car can stay parked all week.
Winter is skiing and riding, tubing, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. Summer brings lift-served mountain biking, hiking, golf and paddling on Shavers Lake. Cass Scenic Railroad State Park, with its steam-driven Shay locomotives, is a scenic drive down the mountain.
THE MOUNTAIN, SEASON BY SEASON

Silver Creek adds night skiing until 9 PM from mid-December to early March, and Snowshoe is on the Ikon Pass.

SEASONAL RESORT AND BUILDING AMENITIES: PLEASE CHECK BEFORE YOU BOOK
Snowshoe is a seasonal mountain resort. Many of its shops, restaurants, activities, lifts and shuttles operate only part of the year. Building amenities such as pools, hot tubs, saunas, fitness rooms, ski lockers and front-desk check-in locations are run by Snowshoe Mountain Resort and the building associations, not by LuxStayUSA, and may be closed for the season, for weather or for maintenance during your stay. We don't control their schedules, so please confirm current hours and availability directly with Snowshoe Mountain Resort before you book. Closures of these third-party facilities don't change your reservation terms.
