Cancellation Policy
Cancellations and Obligations:
Cancellations made 14 days in advance of a reserved ski day will receive a complete refund less a $50 per person/per day administrative fee.

Any cancellations made less than 24 hours in advance of a reserved day will loose the full amount of the day ($950 per person). It is not the responsibility of HMH to remind you of your reservation.

Any requested changes to a reservation date, if feasible for the reservationists, will be charged a $50 per person/per day administrative fee.
