Welcome to Snowshoe Mountain Resort, the ultimate four-season destination for families, nestled in the breathtaking Allegheny Mountains of Pocahontas County, West Virginia! Built on Cheat Mountain, the second-highest point in the state, the resort has been shaped by rugged terrain, a harsh micro-climate, and some of the best skiing and sunset views in the mid-Atlantic.
Dr. Thomas Brigham, the founder of Snowshoe, defied convention by building an "upside-down" ski resort with base facilities located at the mountain's summit. With over 1,200 units spread across 37 different complexes, Snowshoe offers a wide range of accommodations, from cozy hotel rooms to spacious condos and family-friendly houses. Whether you're seeking a romantic getaway, a fun-filled family vacation, or an adrenaline-pumping adventure, Snowshoe has something for everyone.
