The following packages are for those who want to do the most of their short Winter vacations! We propose you multi-activity packages designed to offer you as much fun as possible in the White Mountains, while keeping the total cost as low as possible!
All the following packages include a 3 night stay with us (2 night stay for the Weekday Winter Workout package) and full country breakfast cooked-to-order, with an average discount of 20% off our regular room rates on weekends. EMS provides you with all the technical gear (including guides, snowshoes, trekking poles...), as well as hot cocoa on the trail for the snowshoe trips. You have to bring your own snacks, water and lunch. Most of the rooms in the loft building have their own refrigerator. We have a guest refrigerator in the Main building for all the other rooms to share. Or you can buy some delicious sandwiches at the Chef's Market of North Conway!
We provide you with vouchers for your snowshoeing trip as well as for skiing and tubing when you check-in. These vouchers give you an average discount of 20% off EMS's regular rates and 15% off regular lift ticket rates. You'll meet your guide(s) at the EMS store in North Conway (just 5 minutes from us) and present your voucher. After checking that you are dressed appropriately and get fitted with snowshoes, you will leave for your adventure in the Mt Washington Valley!
We ask for a lodging deposit upon reservation with a valid credit card (Visa, MasterCard or American Express), which depends of the room you choose to book.
In case there is not enough snow to snowshoe, a hike will be proposed. These hikes won't be cancelled because of weather conditions, except if it is too icy or dangerous.
There is a minimum (usually 4) and maximum number of people (usually 12) that can sign up for each snowshoeing trip, so sign-up early! If there is not enough people to run the trip (under 4 people) EMS will either cancel the trip or charge a slightly higher rate per person. If the trip is cancelled by EMS, you will still take advantage of our lodging discount rate for a 3 night stay with us. You can then still go skiing at discounted rate.
If you cancel your reservation, there is a $25 surcharge per room on all cancellations to cover paperwork, except for beds in the bunkroom. A fourteen day cancellation notice is required to receive a full refund. Reservations cancelled less than 2 weeks in advance will be refunded only if we are able to rent to others. If the room remains un-rented, we gladly issue a gift certificate in the value of your deposit, valid for one year. If you booked a bed in the bunkroom and it remains un-rented, NO REFUND or credit voucher is possible. Early checkouts forfeit their deposits and are responsible for all nights booked.
If you didn't book one of these packages but decide upon check-in to participate to one of the snowshoeing trips, this is still possible (depending of the number of participants who already signed up!) but doesn't entitle you to the lodging discount we offer when the package is booked in advance.
Please note that these trips are not suitable for children under 12!
