Skier/Rider Dropoff
To make your arrival more convenient, we have added two skier/rider drop off lanes in the hotel lot, which you can use to drop off members of your party with their gear before you park your car.
Sugarloaf Explorer Shuttles will also drop off in this lot, while parking lot shuttles will drop off at the Base Lodge.
Parking Lot Shuttles
Parking in all lots is free at all times, and parking lot shuttles operate every day of the winter season. Parking lot shuttles are operated by Sugarloaf and drop off at the Sugarloaf Base Lodge. If you do not see a shuttle when you arrive, wait at the sign at the end of the parking row. Please note towards the end of the day, the last available bus is 4:30pm midweek and 5pm on weekends.

EV Charging Stations
Sugarloaf has installed 4 new level 2 SWTCH chargers at the golf course, and 5 level 2 chargers in lot E for your convenience. There are also two Tesla 8kWh charging stations and two traditional wall outlet stations for public use located in lot B. Sugarloaf has plans to increase the EV infrastructure to accommodate the growing needs of our guests.
Please note that beginning May 15th, Lot E electric vehicle chargers will be closed due to West Mountain project and equipment staging. An update will be provided in the fall when the lot is fully cleared out and the EV chargers become accessible again.
