Boots Weren't Made for Walking & Ears Weren't Made for Listening to Partiers at 2 am?

If you want to max out your mountain time and minimize your time trekking around in ski boots than ski in/out is the way to go. This means access to a run or lift is less than a two-minute walk away. Staying in the resort is obviously necessary.

Many families with young children love staying slope side so the young 'uns don't tire out before the first runs of the day. A ski in/out property on the hill is also a better option than one at the base if you want peace and quiet.

Fernie Central Reservations offers plenty of ski in/out accommodation options, but often with hefty price tags. If you can, rent from a vacation homeowner directly and you're sure to get a better rate. Booking through the resort or other big rental managers usually adds an unnecessary commission charge and extra taxes to your booking.

Wanna Rock & Roll all Night & Ski During the Day?

The Fernie Township has your reservation written all over it. Only 3 miles from Fernie Alpine Resort, the town of Fernie has many dining and nightlife opportunities available. The town's history and roots in the coal mining industry make this an interesting place to stay and sightsee as well.

When you're ready to peek out from beneath the covers it's only a short, cheap shuttle ride to the lifts. The shuttle runs 5 times daily but if you want to go on your own time a taxi will usually run you about $15 - not much when you consider sharing it between up to 6 people with all your ski gear.

Hotels or direct rentals from vacation homeowners are both great Fernie accommodation options. Just weigh the costs of a single hotel room against that of a whole apartment before you book. You may be surprised at how much space you'll get for the same price or sometimes even less.

Want to do Fernie on the Cheap?

You know the saying "beggars can't be choosers?" Well, it rings true if price is your main consideration when booking your Fernie accommodation.

The best way to find the best deal is no secret: you need to do a fair bit of research. Check out the main resort website against other Fernie accommodation providers and don't forget to search for "owner direct Fernie rentals." Most of the time a direct vacation home rental a little farther from the hill will be the cheapest option. But do your research and be sure.
