SOLDIER MOUNTAIN EVENT INFORMATION
(Spring, Summer, and Fall)
Imagine your wedding, reunion, or special event held in a beautiful, pastoral location with views of Soldier Mountain and the Sawtooth National Forest. Soldier Mountain Ski Area offers a spectacular setting for people who love the outdoors. You can choose to have your event indoors or outdoors, and always have comfort in the knowledge that the lodge is available as your protection should you need it during any season.
The lodge will accommodate approximately 250 people and will seat up to 100 people. The outside will seat 50 people (and you can bring the inside chairs outside to accommodate 100 more) and there is plenty of standing room. You have the choice of using the lodge or patio on their own, take over both areas and/or run the chair lift. The lodge has a bar, kitchen, restrooms, counters for food presentation. There are restrooms for those parties who intend to spend all of their time outside.
Packages can be arranged for almost any style of event you have imaged for your special day. You may rent the patio only, rent the lodge or rent the lodge with the kitchen use. For more adventurous events, it is also an option to have the chair lifts running for sight-seeing and mid-mountain outdoor events. This package of materials includes a description of options. You will also find comprehensive policy information as well as the rental contract.
