Winter Time Activity

The snow fall this winter has been less compared to previous years, but that hasn't stopped visitors from enjoying Louis Lake. The winter season is almost over now!

The Lodge at Louis Lake, WY

The resort lays directly on the continental divide snowmobile trail and is easily accessed and only accessible by snowmobile. If you don't have snowmobiles of your own we can perform drop camp or shuttle services with our own machines. Once there however you won't need a snowmobile to have fun.

Guests who visit us in the winter have a wide range of activities to experience. The lake is frozenChristmas tree at Louis Lake, WY over during the winter months and is a prime spot for ice fishing. Visitors, wither experienced or novice can enjoy a snow shoeing trip into the back woods or a cross-country ski outing on the groomed trail. If you join us for the holiday season a Christmas tree permit can be obtained and you could cut down your own live Christmas tree.

If guests plan their vacation correctly they may be able to join us in watching the annual sled dog race which passes directly in front of the cabins. Here are a few pictures from this year's race:

All of the cabins are available for winter use, however, the two larger family cabins are the most popular winter spots because of their propane heating and same cabin plumbing. The smaller cabins can only be heated using the wood burning cook stoves and, as in the summer, the restrooms are in a separate building. The lodge, even while under construction, is a great place for a winter stay because it too has propane heating and will soon have winter plumbing as well.

Cabin accessibility is more difficult in the winter, but for those wanting to enjoy the activities that snow offers it can be a great get away for you and your loved ones. As always it provides entertainment for the whole family. Some can stay in the warmth of the cabin with a good book while others face the wiles of winter nature.
