Dinner is served at Alpine Meadows' Mid Mountain Chalet; which is a cozy lodge tucked into a valley upslope of the day lodge, encircled by towering Sierra peaks and pine trees. Inside the Mid Mountain Chalet, the warm tones of pine craftsmanship - and the even warmer fireplace - invite guests to lounge and chat with friends, enjoy the stars overhead, or simply gaze out the windows at the view of snow adrift.
Reservations
Reservations are required seven days prior to a Mountainside Dining Experience.
