Facilities & Services
Whitefish Mountain Resort has the services and facilities expected of a major resort. Most are centred on the excellent Base Lodge and Upper Village area. The Base Lodge is a stand out. It has everything one could want. Vast and comfortable seating, eating and lounge areas, eateries, bar, shops, tickets, rentals, lessons and lockers and an outdoor area with open fire and shelter. A gold standard day lodge!
Eating On Mountain
Here’s where an angelic choir joyfully sings ‘Alleluia, alleluia, alleee....luia’. Any traveller to the USA quickly has a gutful of the same on-mountain ski hill food. You know what I’m talking about. Burgers, fries, bowls of chilli etc, are all fine for a day or two, but after that you need something better without having to head to a ‘fine dining’ establishment.
Thankfully the Base Lodge and Summit House at Whitefish Mountain Resort provide one of the few exceptions to this rule. It has won over the Powderhounds with its freshly made Szechuan beef, Thai chicken curry, Blackened Salmon with salad, soups, burritos etc etc. Look out for daily specials here and at Ed & Mully’s.
Hellroaring Saloon and Eatery is the other main on-mountain eating alternative.
For those bringing their own lunch, a “brown baggers dining area” is kindly provided in the Base Lodge.

The Whitefish Kids Centre is located at the Base Lodge and caters for all infants up to 6 years old. Kids from 3 to 6 years old can participate in Ski and Play activities or just receive child care. Reservations for the Kids Centre are recommended.
