Snowater Resort is a peaceful mountain community surrounded by approximately 20 forested acres and 1,000 feet of Nooksack River frontage near Glacier.
The setting feels tucked away in the evergreens while keeping you within easy reach of Mt. Baker adventures. Mt. Baker Ski Area is about 30 minutes away, and nearby recreation includes river walks, hiking and exploring the surrounding Mt. Baker Snoqualmie National Forest.
One of Snowater's biggest advantages is its year-round recreation. Heated indoor pools, hot tubs, a dry sauna, fitness facilities, game areas and sports courts give guests plenty to do even when the weather encourages a slower day indoors.
Nearby Glacier also offers restaurants, coffee and convenient stops before or after a day on the mountain.
A few helpful details before your stay:
• The upper king sleeping area is loft style and open to the living area below, so sound and light may travel between the two spaces. The main floor queen bedroom is fully enclosed.
• Snowater Resort does not permit air conditioning units, so the condo does not have air conditioning.
• WiFi is available, although mountain internet can be slower or less consistent than urban service. Guests who require uninterrupted high bandwidth internet should plan accordingly.
• Up to two dogs are welcome with a pet fee of $35 per dog, per night.
• Four shared EV chargers are available through the Snowater Resort office for $10 per charging session. Advance arrangements may be required.
