The colder months of the year are ideal for romantic getaways. When the snow is falling and fireplaces offer the perfect setting to cozy up for warm snuggles, falling (or staying) in love has never been easier. At the Arizona Snowbowl, you can enjoy some quality time with your special someone in our state’s snowiest town. Just an hour from the Grand Canyon, this world-class ski resort is the ultimate winter weekend vacation!
Ski resorts are the apex of romanticism, and the Arizona Snowbowl is no exception.
The gondola takes you soaring nearly 12,000 feet above the snowy landscape, showcasing Northern Arizona like you've never seen it before. You'll see the famous red rocks of Sedona, and even as far as the Grand Canyon on a clear day!
Some of the cabins boast full kitchens, while others feature gas-burning fireplaces perfect for cozying up next to on a winter night. The lodge is nestled in the largest ponderosa pine forest in the nation, and the enchanting atmosphere is ideal for building intimacy.
There's also an on-site restaurant and bar where you can refuel and unwind after a full day on the slopes.
Located at the base of Snowbowl Road and Highway 180, Basecamp Restaurant offers everything from made-to-order burgers and house-smoked barbecue to bright and fresh vegetarian options.
Address: 9300 North Snow Bowl Road, Flagstaff, AZ 86001.
