Now through April 10, you can enjoy a cozy afternoon on the patio for apres at The Nelson Cottage by High West. Every Friday through Sunday, from 1-4 p.m., enjoy specialty cocktails and shared plates, surrounded by the warmth of heaters and fire pits, perfect for ending a day on the slopes.
Ski down, skip the lines at the Saloon and come to the Nelson Cottage for this apres experience. It’s the hidden gem. It’s our elevated fine dining experience.
